D-Link DWL-2210AP Product Manual - Page 114

Setting up Guest Access 1. Configure the access point to represent two virtually separate networks as described in the section below, "Configuring Internal and Guest VLANs" in this manual. 2. Set up the guest Welcome screen for the guest captive portal as described in the section below, "Configuring the Welcome Screen (Captive Portal)" in this manual. Guest Interface settings are not shared among access points across the cluster. These settings must be configured individually on the Administration pages for each access point. To get to the Administration pages for an access point that is a member of the current cluster, click on its IP Address link on the Cluster > Access Points page of the current AP. For more information about which settings are shared by the cluster and which are not, see "Which Settings are Shared as Part of the Cluster Configuration and Which Are Not?" in this manual. Configuring Internal and Guest VLANs If you want to configure the Guest and Internal networks on Virtual LAN (VLANs), the switch and DHCP server you are using must support VLANs. As a prerequisite step, configure a port on the switch for handling VLAN tagged packets as described in the IEEE 802.1Q standard. Guest Welcome Screen settings are shared among access points across the cluster. When you update these settings for one access point, the configuration will be shared with the other access points in the cluster. For more information about which settings are shared by the cluster and which are not, see "Which Settings are Shared as Part of the Cluster Configuration and Which Are Not?" in this manual. To configure Internal and Guest networks on Virtual LANs, do the following: 1. Configure Ethernet (wired) Settings for Internal and Guest networks on VLANs as described in the sections in "Setting the Ethernet (Wired) Interface" in this manual. (Start by choosing "For Internal and Guest access, use two: VLANs" as described in "Using VLANs for the Guest Network" in this manual.) 2. Provide the radio interface settings and network names (SSIDs) for both Internal and Guest networks as described in "Setting the Wireless Interface" in this manual. 3. Configure other settings on the access point needed (not necessarily specific to the guest network) as described in this manual. 114
