VLAN Tagged 
Setting 

Description 

Factory Default 

A comma-seperated list 
of VLAN IDs. Each of 
the VLAN IDs range 
from 1 to 4094. 

Specify which VLANs can communicate with this specific VLAN.  (Empty) 

 

NOTE 

The VLAN feature can allow wireless clients to manage the AP. If the VLAN Management ID matches a VLAN 
ID, then those wireless clients who are members of that VLAN will have AP management access. 

CAUTION: Once a VLAN Management ID is configured and is equivalent to one of the VLAN IDs on the AP, all 
members of that User VLAN will have management access to the AP. Be careful to restrict VLAN membership 
to those with legitimate access to the AP. 

 

DHCP Server (for AP mode only) 

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is a networking protocol that allows administrators to assign 
temporary IP addresses to network computers by “leasing” an IP address to a user for a limited amount of time, 
instead of assigning permanent IP addresses. 

The AWK-3131-RCC can act as a simplified DHCP server and easily assign IP addresses to your DHCP clients by 
responding to the DHCP requests from the client ends. The IP-related parameters you set on this page will also 
be sent to the client. 

You can also assign a static IP address to a specific client by entering its MAC address. The AWK-3131-RCC 
provides a Static DHCP mapping list with up to 16 entities. Be reminded to check the Active check box for 
each entity to activate the setting. 

You can check the IP assignment status under Status
