Click the Apply button. Your settings are saved and applied. Specify a management VLAN By default, you can access the local browser UI from any VLAN and management traffic such as traffic from a DHCP server can reach the AirBridge from any VLAN. That is, management traffic is untagged. For additional security, you can specify a management VLAN ID so that you can access the local browser UI from this VLAN only and management traffic can reach the AirBridge over this VLAN only. That is, the management traffic is tagged with the VLAN ID. CAUTION: The VLAN must be defined on your network, and the DHCP server, switch, and router to which the AirBridge is connected must be able to reach the AirBridge over this VLAN. Otherwise, when you change the VLAN, connectivity problems might occur, and you might be locked out from the local browser UI. To specify a management VLAN for the AirBridge: 1. Open a web browser from a computer that is connected to the same network as the AirBridge or directly to the AirBridge through an Ethernet cable or WiFi connection. 2. Enter the IP address that is assigned to the AirBridge. The login page displays.

over this VLAN. Otherwise, when you change the VLAN, connectivity problems might
occur, and you might be locked out from the local browser UI.
