VLAN (802.1Q) Tagging
Determines whether the IEEE 802.1Q protocol is used to tag VLAN packets. IEEE 802.1Q protocol is
used to connect multiple switches and routers and for defining VLAN topologies. This setting is user
configurable.
802.1Q Encapsulation Mode
A status setting that indicates whether or not IEEE 802.1Q tagging is in use. When VLANs are
successfully configured on the access point, the setting displays “Hybrid Trunk.” Otherwise, the setting
displays “Disabled.” You cannot directly configure this setting; it changes after you successfully create
and configure a VLAN on the access point.
Maximum Number of Enabled VLAN IDs
A status setting that provides the maximum number of VLANs that can reside on the access point. This
setting is for information only and is not configurable.
Native VLAN ID
Specifies the identification number of the access point’s native VLAN. This configurable setting must
agree with the native VLAN ID setting on the switch.
Single VLAN ID which allows Unencrypted packets
Identifies the number of the VLAN on which unencrypted packets can pass between the access point and
the switch. This setting is configurable.
