Hi all, I have setup a basic CAPsMAN setuup with a single SSID network.
What I would like to do is provide multiple SSID from one AP (Corp, Guest, Services), and connect each AP to a switch whose port is a configured as a trunk (CorpVLAN #10, GuestVLAN #20, ServicesVLAN#30).
So far I setup the port as an untagged on the CorpVLAN, and tagged on the GuestVLAN and ServicesVLANs.
I setup the CAPsMAN wireless to route locally and to tag to VLANs 20, and 30. I also setup the DHCP server but I get limited connectivity.
Could anyone please advise of a walk through (PDF, blog or YouTube) that handles the above scenario where multiple VLANs/SSIDs are used?
try that setup first without CapsMaN for trouble shooting, then try with CapsMAN, will be easier.
I do that setup using a separate bridge por each vap
example:
bridge1 ports
wlan1
vlan10
bridge 2 ports
wlan2 (vap)
vlan20
bridge 3 ports
wlan3 (vap)
vlan 30
vlan interface using the same Ethernet, works as a trunk (multiple vlan) tho the LAN where vlans are mapped and have their dhcp server for each vlan serving all AP, and good for L2 roaming
This is pretty straight forward. You’ve got half the battle completed by enabling local forwarding and tagging the SSIDs. You’ll need to actually log into the CAP (not CAPsMAN but the AP itself), and create a bridge. Create your tagged VLAN interfaces to this bridge interface.
Next, assign your trunk ethernet port to the bridge. Then go into the wireless menu and access the CAP settings. From there, you can tell it to automatically move CAP managed wireless interfaces to this bridge.
