AP-5131 Access Point Product Reference Guide
5-6
To create a new VLAN, click the Create 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
AP-5131 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.
A business may have offices in different locations and want to extend an internal LAN
between the locations. An AP-5131 managed infrastructure could provide this connectivity,
but it requires VLAN numbering be managed carefully to avoid conflicts between two VLANs
with the same ID.
5. Define a 32 ASCII character maximum VLAN Name.
Enter a unique name that identifies members of the VLAN. Symbol recommends selecting
the name carefully, as the VLAN name should signify a group of clients with a common set
of requirements independent of their physical location.
6. Click Apply to save the changes to the new or modified VLAN.
7. From the LAN Configuration screen, click the WLAN Mapping button. The Mapping
Configuration screen displays.
