The VLAN name screen displays. The first time the screen is launched a default VLAN
name of 1 and a default VLAN ID of 1 display. The VLAN name is auto-generated once the
user assigns a VLAN ID. However, the user has the option of re-assigning a name to the
VLAN using New VLAN and Edit VLAN screens.

To create a new VLAN, click the Add button, to edit the properties of an existing VLAN, click
the Edit button.

4. Assign a unique VLAN ID (from 1 to 4095) to each VLAN added or modified.

The VLAN ID associates a frame with a specific VLAN and provides the information the
Mobility 7131 Access Point needs to process the frame across the network. Therefore, it
may be practical to assign a name to a VLAN representative or the area or type of network
traffic it represents.
