When VLANs are enabled, the access point’s Ethernet port drops
all received traffic that does not include a VLAN tag. To maintain network
connectivity to the access point and wireless clients, be sure that the
access point is connected to a device port on a wired network that supports
IEEE 802.1Q VLAN tags.
The VLAN commands supported by the access point are listed below.
