NTERFACE
The VLAN Interface (VIF) is a layer 3 virtual interface, which is used by WLC upper control plane applications to
communicate with the outside world. Since the WLC has an underlying data plane for packet forwarding or upward
transmission, the VIF interface actually becomes the communication layer between the control plane and the data plane
in the WLC. The packets sent to WLC control plane from external applications, such as the packets of Radius, DHCP,
CAPWAP etc., shall transmit via VIF interface. If the external hosts are configured with a VLAN, then the VIF interface
must be allocated a VLAN to match the incoming packets from external host.
