LAN Port Configuration
VLANS
VLAN support allows segmentation of the 8 Local LAN ports into different logical LANs, each with its
own address range, and addressing method (DHCP, DHCP Relay, or static). If your AT&T AC8200 has
been configured for VLANs, as part of installation you will need to know which of the 8 Local LAN Ports
attach to each network.
You can view the VLAN configuration through the AT&T AC8200 Web Interface as described below.
After initial power on, and once the Internet Connection has been correctly configured, the AT&T
AC8200 will retrieve its configuration from the network and will likely perform an automatic reboot to
pick up the new configuration. This should occur within the first 2-3 minutes after initial power on.
You
will not be able to view the VLAN configuration until the AT&T AC8200 has successfully
retrieved its configuration.
1.
Following the automatic reboot, when the green power light remains on steady, open your
browser as described in Access the AT&T AC8200 Web Interface on page 5. You may need
to disable then enable your Ethernet connection on your PC if the IP addressing has
changed due to VLAN configuration.
