18.2.5 Second Rx VLAN ID Example
In this example, the ZyXEL Device is configured to tag packets from SSID01 with VLAN ID
1 and tag packets from SSID02 with VLAN ID 2. VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 have access to a
server, S, and the Internet, as shown in the following figure.
1 and tag packets from SSID02 with VLAN ID 2. VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 have access to a
server, S, and the Internet, as shown in the following figure.
Figure 145 Second Rx VLAN ID Example
Packets sent from the server S back to the switch are tagged with a VLAN ID (incoming
VLAN ID). These incoming VLAN packets are forwarded to the ZyXEL Device. The ZyXEL
Device compares the VLAN ID in the packet header with each SSID’s configured VLAN ID
and second Rx VLAN ID settings.
In this example, SSID01’s second Rx VLAN ID is set to 2. All incoming packets tagged with
VLAN ID 2 are forwarded to SSID02, and also to SSID01. However, SSID02 has no second
Rx VLAN ID configured, and the ZyXEL Device forwards only packets tagged with VLAN
ID 2 to it.
