Change the VLAN ID for a WiFi network
If the access point functions in Router mode, you can use the VLAN ID to assign a
particular DHCP server to the WiFi clients on the SSID (see Add a DHCP server for a
WiFi network on page 151). By default, the VLAN ID for a WiFi network is 1.
The VLAN ID for a WiFi network 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 138).
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 directly to the access point through an Ethernet cable or WiFi
connection.
2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the access point.
A login window opens.
If your browser does not open the login window but displays a security message
and does not let you proceed, see Log in to the access point after initial setup on
page 41.
