Change the VLAN ID for a WiFi Network
This VLAN ID is not the same as the 802.1Q VLAN ID that is used for the wired network (see Set the 802.1Q
VLAN and Management VLAN on page 85).
To change the VLAN ID for a WiFi network:
1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the access point or to
the access point directly through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the access point user name and password.
The default user name is admin. The password is the one that you specified the first time that you
logged in.The user name and password are case-sensitive.
The Dashboard page displays.
4. Select Management > Configuration > Wireless > Basic.
The page that displays lets you select an SSID.
5. Click the > button to the left the SSID.
The settings for the selected SSID display.
6. In the VLAN ID field, enter a value.
By default, the VLAN ID for a WiFi network is 1.
7. Click the Apply button.
Your settings are saved.
Select a MAC ACL for a WiFi Network
After you set up one or more local MAC access control lists (ACLs, also referred to as access lists; see
Manage Local MAC Access Control Lists on page 69), you can select an ACL for use with an SSID.
You can also set up a RADIUS server (see Set Up RADIUS Servers on page 80) and select the RADIUS
MAC ACL.You must define the ACL on the RADIUS server, using the following format for client MAC
addresses in the RADIUS server: If the client MAC address is 00:0a:95:9d:68:16, specify it as 000a959d6816
in the RADIUS server.
A RADIUS MAC ACL cannot function if the WiFi security is WPA2 Enterprise. If you
want to use a RADIUS MAC ACL, select a different type of WiFi security for the WiFi
network (see Set Up an Open or Secure WiFi Network on page 30).
Note
When selected, the MAC ACL blocks WiFi access to the SSID for WiFi devices that are not in the selected
access list.The blockage applies only to the SSID for which you enable the MAC ACL. Only WiFi devices
that are in the selected access list can connect to the SSID.
