APPLICATION NOTE - Configuring and deploying the AX411 Wireless Access Point
#APs configuration. By default all traffic not assigned to a VLAN is send untagged.
#Both radios are used (radio 1 in the 5hz band and radio 2 in the 2.4Ghzs band)
and broadcast the same SSID

The AX411 access points use the concept of a Virtual Access Point (VAP). A VAP appears to the wireless client as a
single independent access point, advertising a single service set identifier (ssId). In our first configuration, only a single
ssId is advertised and this signifies that a single VAP on each radio is being used.
L3 Management Mode
In this mode, each access point is connected to a different L3 interface. since each interface belongs to a different
subnet, clients will get their addresses assigned from a pool based on the access point to which they are associated.
