Configuring VLAN Settings
■ Update Settings (test): When you click Update Settings (test), if any configura-
tion settings changed, a connectivity-test will be run; this lasts approximately 30
seconds. If the browser and the AP/Router can communicate with the new VLAN
settings, then they will remain set. If connectivity fails, then the device will revert
to the previous VLAN settings. A pop-up message will tell you whether the test
passed or failed and VLAN values were reverted.
■ Update Settings (no testing, override): When you click Update Settings (no
testing, override), you are saving configuration changes without a connectivity
test.
Changing a VLAN ID
This task should be performed by an experienced network administrator or are under
the guidance of an IT/support professional.
1. Go to Administrator > VLAN. The Administrator :: VLAN page appears.
2. Clear the value in the VLAN ID column, and type the new value.
3. Click Update Settings (test) to verify connectivity prior to saving changes. This
prevents you from being locked out in the event you were to change the Manage-
ment interface VLAN ID.
NOTE: This works best in conjunction with “Changing the Port State of a VLAN” on
page 64 and “Changing an RJ45 Port’s VLAN Tagged State” on page 65.
