10.5.1 Different VLAN IDs per WLAN client
VLANs are usually connected to a LAN interface on the BAT. Therefore, all
packets that pass through this interface receive the same VLAN ID when the
VLAN module is enabled. However, in some cases, administrators will want
to assign different WLAN users to different VLANs.
This can be accomplished by assigning a special VLAN ID to each MAC ad-
dress under
Setup/WLAN/Access List
. The client-specific VLAN ID can take
on values from 0 to 4094. The default value of '0' stands for an unspecified
VLAN ID. In such a case, the client will be assigned to the VLAN port of the
logical WLAN.
The following requirements must be met in order to ensure successful client-
specific VLAN assignment:
D VLAN operation must be enabled.
D The VLAN IDs that are to be assigned to the individual clients must be in-
cluded in the VLAN network table.
D The LAN interfaces and all WLAN interfaces that are used by the clients
must be assigned to the corresponding VLAN.
10.5.2 Special VLAN ID for DSLoL interfaces
In order to better separate the data traffic on a DLSoL interface from other
traffic, 'VLAN ID' can be set up for the DSLoL interface under
Setup/Inter-
faces/DSLoL
or in LANconfig in the configuration area 'Interfaces' using the
'WAN' tab under the interface settings for the DSLoL interface.
