12.1.3 Virtual Wireless Networks
If you want to configure the Internal network as a VLAN (whether or not you have a Guest
network configured), you can enable “Virtual Wireless Networks” on the access point.
You must enable this feature if you want to configure additional virtual networks on VLANs
on the
Manage > VWN tab as described in “Configuring VLANs” on page 161.
12.1.4 Internal Interface Settings
To configure Ethernet (wired) settings for the Internal LAN, fill in the fields as described in
Table 12.5.
For Guest
Access
Specify a virtually separate guest network on this access point:
• Since the access point is using only one physical connection to your internal LAN, choose VLAN on
Ethernet Port 1 from the drop-down menu. This will enable the “VLAN” settings where you must pro-
vide a VLAN ID. See “Guest Interface Settings” on page 143.
Important: If you reconfigure the Guest and Internal interfaces to use VLANs, you may lose con-
nectivity to the access point. First, be sure to verify that the switch and DHCP server
you are using can support VLANs per the IEEE 802.1Q standard. After configuring the
VLAN on the Manage > Ethernet Settings page, physically reconnect the Ethernet cable
on the switch to the tagged packet (VLAN) port. Then, re-connect via the Administra-
tion Web pages to the new IP address. (If necessary, check with the infrastructure
support administrator regarding the VLAN and DHCP configurations.)
