Configuration Guide Configuring WLAN-VLAN Mapping
VLANs.
To better understand the subsequent configuration process, learn about the following concepts:
VLAN Group
VLAN group: You can add multiple VLANs to one VLAN group. When STAs access a WLAN, VLANs in the VLAN group
associated with the WLAN are assigned to the STAs
VLAN Assignment Mode
VLAN assignment mode: VLANs in each VLAN group can be assigned based on the 802.1x assignment VLAN.
Working Principle
The process of assigning VLANs through 802.1x is as follows:
Before a user passes authentication, the VLAN that belongs to the user is the default VLAN of the VLAN group associated
with the current WLAN.
After the STA in the default VLAN is authenticated, the authentication server assigns a VLAN to the STA.
If the authentication server assigns a VLAN, packets sent by the STA are transmitted over the VLAN.
If the authentication server does not assign a VLAN to the STA, the packets from the STA are transmitted over the default
VLAN.
Protocol Specification
None
Default Configuration
The default VLAN group configuration is shown in the following table.
Feature Default Setting
VLAN group No VLAN group is created.
VLAN assignment mode VLAN assignment mode is unspecified and must be
manually configured.
Default VLAN in the VLAN group to be assigned VLAN assignment mode is unspecified and must be
manually configured.
List of the VLANs in the VLAN group The VLAN group has no VLAN. VLANs must be manually
added.
VLAN group associated with a WLAN The WLAN is not associated with any VLAN group.
