Chapter 9 VLAN

115

This section shows you how to create a VLAN on an Ethernet switch.

By default, the port on the ZyAIR is a member of the management VLAN (VID 1). The 
following procedure shows you how to configure a tagged VLAN.

Note: Use the out-of-band management port or console port to configure the switch if 

you misconfigure the management VLAN and lock yourself out from performing 
in-band management.

On an Ethernet switch, create a VLAN that has the same management VLAN ID as the 
ZyAIR. The following figure has the ZyAIR connected to port 2  of the switch and your 
computer connected to port 1. The management VLAN ID is ten.

Figure 55   Management VLAN Configuration Example

Perform the following steps in the switch web configurator:

1 Click VLAN under Advanced Application.

2 Click Static VLAN.

3 Select the ACTIVE check box.

4 Type a Name for the VLAN ID.

Name

Type a name to have the ZyAIR check for specific VLAN attributes on 

incoming messages from the RADIUS server. Access-accept packets sent by 

the RADIUS server contain VLAN related attributes. The configured Name 

field is checked against these attributes. If the configured Name field matches 

these attributes, the corresponding VLAN ID entry is used to access the 

specific VLAN group. If the configured Name field does not match the VLAN 

related attributes sent from the RADIUS server, a wireless station is assigned 

the associated SSID VLAN ID. See VLAN ID in the SSID screen. 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the ZyAIR.

Reset

Click Reset to begin configuring this screen afresh.
