User-assigned (dynamic) VLANs
VLANs can be assigned on a per-user basis by defining the appropriate RADIUS attributes in a
user’s account or by setting a VLAN ID in the local user accounts (see Defining account
profiles on page 7-11).
Only supported for 802.1X users.
The VLAN applies only on the controlled AP and not on the service controller.
Note User-assigned VLANs override VLANs assigned by a VSC on the controlled AP.
For example, if a user is assigned a VLAN of 20 via RADIUS attribute, and the AP is bound to
a VSC with VLAN 30, user traffic ends up on VLAN 20. On the service controller, VLAN 20 is
mapped to a VSC with egress 40, which means that the user traffic ends up on VLAN 40.
VLAN ranges
A VLAN assigned to the LAN port can be defined to cover a range of IDs (1 to 4094). This
enables a single VLAN definition to accept traffic for one or more VLAN IDs, making it easy to
manage a large number of contiguously assigned VLANs. You can use a VLAN range to
aggregate traffic from several VLANs and assign it to the same VSC ingress. An IP address
cannot be assigned to a VLAN range.
VLAN configuration
To view and configure VLAN definitions, select Service Controller >> Network > Ports.
Initially, no VLANs are defined.
