4.7 VLAN Configuration (Bridge Mode only)
Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) are logical groupings of network hosts. Defined by software settings, other VLAN
members or resources appear (to connected hosts) to be on the same physical segment, no matter where they are attached
on the logical LAN or WAN segment. They simplify traffic flow between clients and their frequently-used or restricted
resources.
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 is supported only in Bridge mode.
VLANs are used to conveniently, efficiently, and easily manage your network in the following ways:
• Define groups
• Reduce broadcast and multicast traffic to unnecessary destinations
– Improve network performance and reduce latency
• Increase security
– Secure network restricts members to resources on their own VLAN
VLAN features can be managed via:
• The End Point’s Web interface
• The Command Line Interface (see “Command Line Interface” section in the Reference Manual)
• SNMP (Log on to Proxim support site http://support.proxim.com for MIBs)
NOTE: The VLAN parameters can be configured on selected Interface (Ethernet 1/Ethernet 2).
4.7.1 Establishing a VLAN Connection
For enabling the VLAN support, certain network settings should be configured and certain network resources, such as VLAN
aware switches should be available, depending upon the type of configuration.
VLAN support also provides the capability to specify a separate VLAN ID and priority for management frames (SNMP, ICMP,
Telnet, DHCP, and TFTP).
To configure VLAN,
Click ADVANCED CONFIGURATION > VLAN.
Figure 4-42 Configuring VLAN
VLAN parameters can be classified into two types: System-related VLAN parameters and Interface-related VLAN parameters.
