Figure 6.14. Editing SSID Add VLAN WPA
Configuring Multiple VLANS per SSID
The SSID acts as a "security template" - it determines the general security mode (WPA,
WEP, etc.). The Security details (the keys themselves) are linked to the VLAN. Therefore,
there is an option to assign multiple VLANs to the same "security template" which is the
SSID. This option is applicable only when another authority (i.e. RADIUS Server that
supports VLAN assignment) is involved in the Authentication process. The RADIUS can
determine the exact VLAN that the connecting client is bound to after the Authentication
process is completed.
