A device can communicate across a VLAN-capable switch that analyses VLAN tagged frames and
directs traffic to the appropriate units. The purpose of this network is to provide an easy way of
modifying logical groups in the dynamic environment.

VLAN Status: Enable/ Disable
VLAN Mode: By default, VLAN Mode is Transparent in AP/SU. In case of SU, VLAN Mode can be

Management VLAN ID
This parameter is used to configure the Management VLAN ID. The management stations must tag
the management frames sent to the device with the management VLAN ID specified in the device.
The device will tag all the management frames from the device with the specified management
VLAN.
 Before setting the Management VLAN ID from 1 to 4094, make sure that the management
platform or host is a member of the same VLAN; or else, your access to the device will be
lost.
 If Tag Management is disabled, only untagged frames can access the device.
Transparent
To configure the VLAN Transparent Mode in AP or SU, Click Quick Start> System
 Transparent Mode is available for the Ethernet and Wireless interfaces for both AP and
SU. It is equivalent to NO VLAN support and is the default mode.

 The Management VLAN ID range can be between (1-4094)
Trunk
To configure the VLAN Trunk Mode in SU, Click Quick Start> System

matches with a VLAN ID present in trunk table. All other frames will be dropped.
Access
To configure the VLAN Access Mode in SU, Click Quick Start> System
 Access mode is available only on the Ethernet interface of SU.
