Specify an existing management VLAN
By default, you can access the local browser UI from any VLAN and management traffic
such as traffic from a DHCP server can reach the access point from any VLAN. That is,
management traffic is untagged.
For additional security, you can specify an existing management VLAN ID so that you
can access the local browser UI from this VLAN only and management traffic can reach
the access point over this VLAN only. That is, the management traffic is tagged with the
VLAN ID.
CAUTION:
The VLAN must be defined on your network, and the DHCP server, switch,
and router to which the access point is connected must be able to reach the access
point over this VLAN. Otherwise, when you change the VLAN, connectivity problems
might occur, and you might be locked out from the local browser UI.
To specify an existing management VLAN for the access point:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is directly connected
over WiFi to the access point or connected to the same network as the access point.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
If you are directly connected to the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, you can enter
https://www.aplogin.net.
A login window displays.
If you do not know the IP address, see Find the IP address of the access point on
page 33. For more information about the “CONFIG-ONLY” SSID, see 2.4 GHz
management SSID on page 58.
