VLAN Settings Overview
A Ruckus Wireless access point is in many ways like a network switch with the capability
to service Wi-Fi connections. As such, like many advanced switches, Ruckus APs
conform to the IEEE 802.1Q standard -- the standard that defines virtual LANs. In an
802.1Q switch, the concept of VLANs is always present. If a packet arrives without an
802.1Q header, it is assigned to the “native VLAN” or “untag VLAN.”
Each of the AP’s wireless interfaces can be assigned a single VLAN. When a packet
enters the AP through its wireless interface, the packet is assigned to the Access VLAN
configured on the Configuration > Wireless page (by default, 1).
