No VLAN tags on LAN traffic for EAP 650
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
I have two EAP650 and want to use them in an existing home network with Mikrotik routers & switches.
I want the EAP650 to work as standalone devices (for now?) and to broadcast two SSIDs (1x for trusted clients and 1x for guests).
I've set up both SSIDs on 2,4 GHz and 5GHz and have assigned VLANs 10 and 15 to the respective SSIDs.
My assumption was that this would turn those WiFi networks / SSIDs into "access ports" where every incoming frame gets tagged with either VLAN 10 or 15 and that frame would be forwarded over the RJ45 interface.
When connecting the EAP to the Mikrotik router's "trunk port", clients connecting to the WiFi networks were unable to obtain an IP address from the respective DHCP servers.
Subsequently, I connected the EAP a computer with Wireshark running.
Wireshark does NOT show any .1q tags on incoming frames from the EAP.
It seems that my understanding of how VLAN works on the EAP is fundamentally wrong and the user guide wasn't much help.
I've failed to find threads covering this topic on the forum.
What might I be doing wrong?
