2.2.2 dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n as WDS
bridge
Wireless bridging is the wireless connection of WiFi
networks and is used to expand network coverage.
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is a process for
data addressing in accordance with the IEEE 802.11
standard.
Figure 3 shows a WiFi network, which is connected to
the Internet router via WDS using two
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n.
2.2.3 Static VLAN
VLANs provide the option of assigning the payload
from WiFi users from various user groups (e.g. employ-
ees from various departments or guests) to any VLAN
and, therefore, separating the data streams in your
network from each other.
The payload is transmitted to or received by the LAN
port using a prefixed VLAN tag.
Proper use of the VLANs requires a managed Ethernet
switch to which the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n is con-
nected.
The first VLAN that you create is configured automati-
cally as the Management VLAN (untagged). The Man-
