1.2.9 VLAN Support
A
Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN)
can electronically separate data on the same AP from a single
broadcast domain into separate broadcast domains. By using a VLAN, you can group by logical
function instead of physical location. There are 16 VLANs supported on the access point. An
administrator can map up to 16 WLANs to 16 VLANs and enable or disable dynamic VLAN
assignment. In addition to these 16 VLANs, the access point supports dynamic, user-based, VLANs
when using EAP authentication.
VLANs enable organizations to share network resources in various network segments within large
areas (airports, shopping malls, etc.). A VLAN is a group of clients with a common set of requirements
independent of their physical location. VLANs have the same attributes as physical LANs, but they
enable administrators to group clients even when they are not members of the same network
segment.
For detailed information on configuring VLAN support, see
Configuring VLAN Support on page 5-5
