VLAN Overview
The ZoneFlex P300 is like a network switch, in that it supports Wi-Fi connections.
As such, like many advanced switches, ZoneFlex P300s conform to the IEEE
802.1Q standard -- the standard that defines virtual LANs. In an 802.1Q switch, the
concept of VLANs is always present. If a packet arrives without an 802.1Q header,
it is assigned to the
native VLAN
or
untag VLAN.
The single ZoneFlex P300 wireless interface is assigned to assigned a single VLAN,
and is configured to pass all VLAN traffic as a Trunk Port.
The ZoneFlex P300 Ethernet port is also configured to pass all VLAN traffic as a
Trunk Port.
