![]() ![]() If you want your wireless users to be on the same network as your wired trusted or optional network, you must use a network bridge between the wireless interface and the trusted or optional wired interface. From the Interface Type drop-down list, select an interface type for this Access Point interface.įor more information on these interface types, see Wireless Device Configuration Options.In the Interface Name (Alias) text box, you can change the alias name of the interface or use the default name.The Wireless Access Point configuration dialog box appears. Adjacent to Access point 1 or Access point 2, or Access point 3, click Configure.Click the Save button to apply the changes.Select the relevant VLAN in the drop-down menu, or create a new VLAN using the '+' button.Find the Wired client configuration section and select Bridge mode from the drop-down menu.Navigate to Settings > Network in the main menu on the left.Select the Organisation and Network of interest from top right menu.To bridge wired clients to a VLAN, you need to: By attaching VLAN tags to data packets coming from a specified origin, one can distinguish between these data packets and other network traffic. ![]() Bridge wired clients to VLANīridging wired clients to a VLAN assigns VLAN tags to all traffic belonging to these clients. For example, if the wired client is a printer, you can allow WiFi clients to access this printer by choosing this mode. This mode connects wired and wireless clients. Any settings present in the selected SSID such as captive portal, VLAN tag, etc. In this mode, wired clients adopt the same configuration as the selected SSID. To learn more on Routing and Bridge mode, please refer to this article. or access services relying on auto-discovery. Bridge mode allows you to apply VLAN tags, connect to the LAN to access printers, file servers, surveillance cameras etc. ![]() Bridgeīridged wired clients receive their IP address from the upstream DHCP server inside the LAN. This mode is particularly useful for network admins to easily access a network to perform tests, or for PCs requiring a wired connection to get Internet access. Wired clients are granted access to the Internet uplink as well as to all the other wired clients in your LAN. ![]() Routing is the default mode, providing a "plug and play" experience without requiring additional network equipment (such as DHCP servers).
