NOTE:
For Dual-radio APs:
APs with an 11a Upgrade Kit or 802.11b/g Kit
support up to 16 VLAN/SSID pairs. APs with an 802.11b PC Card or
a 5 GHz Upgrade Kit support only one VLAN/SSID per radio.

a. Click Add to create a new SSID/VLAN entry.

b. Enter a Network Name (SSID), between 1 and 32 characters,

in the field provided.

c. Enter a VLAN ID in the field provided.

— As defined by the 802.1Q standard, a VLAN ID is a

number between 1 and 4094. A value of -1 means that an
entry is "untagged".

— You can use the same VLAN ID for all SSIDs if you want

all wireless clients to be part of the same VLAN.

— You can specify a different VLAN ID for each SSID.

— The VLAN ID must match an ID used by your network;

contact your network administrator if you need assistance
defining the VLAN IDs.

— You can set the VLAN ID to "-1" or "untagged" if you do

not want clients that are using a specific SSID to be
members of a VLAN workgroup.
