Configure Spanning Tree Protocol, 802.1Q VLAN, and Link Layer Discovery Protocol • Configure STP and VLANs • Configure Ethernet LLDP As part of the advanced system configuration, you can enable the Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), configure the VLANs, and enable Ethernet Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP). Configure STP and VLANs STP provides network traffic optimization in locations where multiple wireless access points are active by preventing path redundancy. NETGEAR recommends that you enable STP if you have more than one active wireless access point at your location. The 802.1Q VLAN protocol on the wireless access point logically separates traffic on the same physical network: • Untagged VLAN. When the wireless access point sends frames that are associated with the untagged VLAN from its Ethernet interface, those frames are untagged. When the wireless access point receives untagged frames over its Ethernet interface, those frames are assigned to the untagged VLAN. Advanced Configuration 103

Configure STP and VLANs
Configure Ethernet LLDP
As part of the advanced system configuration, you can enable the Spanning Tree Protocol
(STP), configure the VLANs, and enable Ethernet Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP).
Configure STP and VLANs
STP provides network traffic optimization in locations where multiple wireless access points
are active by preventing path redundancy. NETGEAR recommends that you enable STP if
you have more than one active wireless access point at your location.
The 802.1Q VLAN protocol on the wireless access point logically separates traffic on the
same physical network:
Untagged VLAN
. When the wireless access point sends frames that are associated with
the untagged VLAN from its Ethernet interface, those frames are untagged. When the
wireless access point receives untagged frames over its Ethernet interface, those frames
are assigned to the untagged VLAN.
Prefix Length
Enter the prefix length to be used by DHCP clients. The default length is 64.
Gateway IPv6 Address
Enter the IPv6 address of the default routing gateway to be used by DHCP
clients. The default address is 2001:05c0:9168::1.
Primary DNS Address
Enter the IP address of the primary Domain Name System (DNS) server
available to DHCP clients.
Secondary DNS Address
Enter the IP address of the secondary DNS server available to DHCP clients.
Primary WINS Server
Enter the IP address of the primary WINS server for the network, if there is any.
Secondary WINS Server
Enter the IP address of the secondary WINS server for the network, if there is
any.
Lease
Enter the period that the DHCP server grants to DHCP clients to use the
assigned IP addresses. The default time is one day.
