control-vlan (meshpoint-config)

Configures a VLAN as the dedicated control VLAN for this meshpoint

Mesh management traffic can be sent over a dedicated VLAN. This dedicated VLAN is known as the control VLAN, and should be configured in the backhaul port of all the access points configured as meshpont roots. Once configured, the control VLAN carries the mesh point's control traffic.

Supported on the following platforms:

Access Points — AP7522, AP7532, AP7562, AP7612, AP7632, AP7662, AP8432, AP8533

Parameters

control-vlan [<1-4094>|<VLAN-ALIAS-NAME>]


control-vlan	Configures a VLAN as a dedicated carrier of mesh management traffic
[<1-4094>\| <VLAN-ALIAS-NAME>]	Configures the control VLAN <1-4094> – Specify the control VLAN from 1 - 4094. The default is VLAN 1. <VLAN-ALIAS-NAME> – Uses a vlan-alias to specify the control vlan. If using a vlan-alias, ensure that it is existing and configured. If VLAN 1 is configured as the control VLAN, ensure that the VLAN is configured in the wired port of all access points belonging to same meshpoint. Note: Control VLAN need not necessarily be added in the allowed VLAN list.
