Here you can select the logical interface used by the AP to transfer the payload data from this WLAN network (SSID).
Note: Forwarding payload data from multiple SSIDs to the WLC increases the CPU load and bandwidth demands of the central devices. Consider the performance requirements of central WLAN management that uses layer-3 tunneling.
Note: For each AP you can connect up to 7 SSIDs with a WLC tunnel. For each AP, the WLC connects the WLC tunnel and its associated SSID to an available bridge group. Since one of the eight available bridge groups is reserved for other purposes, 7 bridge groups remain for assigning the WC-tunnel.
- SNMP ID:
- 2.37.1.1.32
- Telnet path:
- Setup > WLAN-Management > AP-Configuration > Networkprofiles
- Possible values:
- LAN
- The AP forwards payload data from this WLAN network via the bridge to its own local LAN interface. In this case, configure how the data packets are to be further processed by using appropriate routes directly on the AP, for example through a separate Internet connection.
- WLC-TUNNEL-1 to WLC-TUNNEL-x (depending on model)
- The AP forwards the payload data from this WLAN network via one of the virtual interfaces to the WLC (WLC tunnel). In this case, configure how the data packets are to be further processed by using appropriate routes centrally on the WLC, for example through a shared Internet connection.
- Default:
- LAN
