Network Management
5-7
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.
To create a new VLAN, click the
Add
button, to edit the properties of an existing VLAN, click
the
Edit
button.
4.
Assign a unique
VLAN ID
(from 1 to 4095) to each VLAN added or modified.
The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN and provides the information the
access point needs to process the frame across the network. Therefore, it may be practical
to assign a name to a VLAN representative or the area or type of network traffic it
represents.
A business may have offices in different locations and want to extend an internal LAN
between the locations. An access point managed infrastructure could provide this
connectivity, but it requires VLAN numbering be managed carefully to avoid conflicts
between two VLANs with the same ID.
5.
Define a 32 ASCII character maximum
VLAN Name
.
Enter a unique name that identifies members of the VLAN. Motorola recommends selecting
the name carefully, as the VLAN name should signify a group of clients with a common set
of requirements independent of their physical location.
6.
Click
Apply
to save the changes to the new or modified VLAN.
7.
From the LAN Configuration screen, click the
WLAN Mapping
button. The
Mapping
Configuration
screen displays.
