In HiveManager, some network objects can support multiple definitions as long as each definition is uniquely
classified by a map name, HiveAP name, or classifier tag—and one of the definitions is classified as global. The
definition classified as global is what HiveManager applies when none of the other more specific classification types
are applicable. When you then assign a WLAN policy that includes that one network object to various HiveAPs,
HiveManager applies the appropriate definition based on the location, name, or tag of each HiveAP. The network
objects that support multiple definitions are IP addresses/host names, MAC addresses/OUIs, and VLANs.
In this example, there are four sites: a main office and three branch offices. You assign the same WLAN policy to the
HiveAPs at all branch offices. However, the network at each office uses a different VLAN for its wireless clients:
•
Branch office 1: VLAN 10
•
Branch office 2: VLAN 20
•
Branch office 3: VLAN 30
To continue using a single WLAN policy for all branch offices while supporting their different VLANs, you use HiveAP
classifiers. You do not classify HiveAPs at branch office 1. As a result, they will use the VLAN definition classified as
global. You classify the HiveAPs at branch offices 2 and 3 as "branch2" and "branch3". You also classify two VLAN
definitions as "branch2" and "branch3" so that HiveManager will apply them to the HiveAPs with the same classifiers.
The classification scheme is show in

HiveAP classifiers and VLANs
Note:
It is assumed that the HiveAPs have already been assigned to maps in the Topology section of the GUI.
Branch Office #1
VLAN: 10
VLAN definition: 10; type: global
HiveAP classifier: (nothing)
Branch Office #3
VLAN: 30
VLAN definition: 30; type: branch3
HiveAP classifier: branch3
Branch Office #2
VLAN: 20
VLAN definition: 20; type: branch2
HiveAP classifier: branch2
