6-2 VAP / VLAN Settings
Overview
As the number of data-based systems increase, it becomes more and more difficult to
provide the network infrastructure (due to the sheer number of Ethernet connections that
need to be provided) from the perspective of cost, space, and wire management. The
LOHU’s VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network) technology can help overcome this difficulty.
Now it is possible for these multi devices in function without the need for multiple physical
network APs. See the diagram below:
Under this mode, this radio can behave as (up to) 8 virtual Wireless LAN infrastructures.
You can specify unique SSIDs for these virtual infrastructures. For example, VLAN1 contains
ETH1 and STA1, VLAN2 contains ETH2 and STA2, and so on. However, they all share the
same AP and undertake different tasks. Some VLANs can be used for guest Internet access,
others for enterprise users, and administrators can be put on a high security VLAN with
enhanced firewall permissions. All this can be achieved using a single infrastructure to
emulate up to 8 infrastructures. The AP does this by assigning each of the 8 VLANs it’s own
SSID, so essentially, you’ll be seeing up to 8 different wireless networks.
