AP-7131 Access Point Product Reference Guide
5-6
If it is not in the database, it simply uses a default VLAN assignment. The VLAN assignment is sent
to the access point. The access point then maps the target WLAN for the assigned VLAN and traffic
passes normally, allowing for the completion of the DHCP request and further traffic.
To create new VLANs or edit the properties of an existing VLAN:
1. Select Network Configuration -> LAN from the access point menu tree.
2. Ensure the Enable 802.1q Trunking button is selected from within the LAN Setting field.
Trunk links are required to pass VLAN information between destinations. A trunk port is by
default a member of all the VLANs existing on the access point and carry traffic for all those
VLANs. Trunking is a function that must be enabled on both sides of a link.
3. Select the VLAN Name button.
The VLAN name screen displays. The first time the screen is launched a default VLAN name
of 1 and a default VLAN ID of 1 display. The VLAN name is auto-generated once the user
assigns a VLAN ID. However, the user has the option of re-assigning a name to the VLAN
using New VLAN and Edit VLAN screens.
