Tagging VLAN
When configuring more than one VAP per WBSn unit, a VLAN can be created. Each VLAN should be
tagged with a different VLAN ID so that networks can be identified at backbone entry.
The default VLAN has a VLAN ID that is equal to 1, and has tagging disabled by default, leaving the data
untagged.

Mapping VLANs
This section enables you to configure how VLANs are defined and structured in the system, and with
which VAP each VLAN is paired. For more information, see
Mapping VLANs to VAPs
VAPs are configured as Wireless interfaces. The table below shows the mapping of VLANs to VAPs.

As displayed in the above table, a single VLAN can be mapped to multiple VAPs (e.g. VLAN 73), and
multiple VLANs can be passed to a single VAP (e.g. both VLAN 101 and VLAN 73 are linked to VAP 1). In
such a situation, one untagged VLAN can be defined per interface (e.g. Ethernet, VAP).
When a VLAN is configured to be tagged on a VAP, a CPE that supports VLAN tagging on the wireless
interface must be used.
3.7 Network/Ethernet Interface – Setting up WLANs in Router Mode
Note: Router mode will be enabled in a future version of WBSn-2450.
