Advanced Configuration
This chapter describes how to configure the advanced features of your ProSafe Wireless-N Access
Point. The advanced configuration features are located under various sub-menus under
Configuration and provide the following functions:
•802.1Q VLAN. Enabling untagged VLAN operation
• Hotspot settings. Enabling HTTP redirect
• Wireless settings. Configuring advanced wireless LAN parameters.
• Access point settings. Enabling wireless bridge and repeater modes.
802.1Q VLAN
The 802.1Q VLAN protocol on the access point logically separates traffic on the same physical
network. See
Figure .
• Untagged VLAN. When this check box is selected, one VLAN can be configured as an
untagged VLAN. When the access point sends frames associated with the untagged VLAN out
the LAN (Ethernet) interface, those frames will be untagged. When the access point receives
untagged traffic from the LAN (Ethernet) interface, those frames are assigned to the untagged
VLAN.
If this check box is not selected, the access point tags all outgoing LAN (Ethernet) frames.
Only incoming frames tagged with known VLAN IDs will be accepted.
Note: The Untagged VLAN check box should not be selected only if the hubs or switches on
your LAN support the VLAN (802.1Q) standard. Likewise, the Untagged VLAN value
should be changed only if the hubs and switches on your LAN support the VLAN
(802.1Q) standard. Changing either of these values will result in a loss of IP
connectivity if the hubs and switches on your network have not yet been configured
with the corresponding VLANs.
