Configures how packets are bridged on the selected VLAN
bridging-mode [auto|isolated-tunnel|local|tunnel]
bridging-mode [auto|isolated-tunnel|local|tunnel]
| bridging-mode | Configures the VLAN bridging mode |
| auto | Automatically selects the bridging mode to match the WLAN, VLAN and bridging mode configurations. When selected, the controller or access point determines the best bridging mode for the VLAN. (default setting) |
| isolated-tunnel | Bridges packets between local Ethernet ports and local radios, and passes tunneled packets through without de-tunneling Select this option for a dedicated tunnel for bridging VLAN traffic. |
| local | Bridges packets normally between local Ethernet ports and local radios (if any) Local mode is typically configured in remote branch offices where traffic on remote private LAN segments need to be bridged locally. Local mode implies that traffic, wired and wireless, is to be bridged locally. |
| tunnel | Bridges packets between local Ethernet ports, local radios, and tunnels to other APs, wireless controllers, or service platforms Select this option to use a shared tunnel for bridging VLAN traffic. In tunnel mode, the traffic at the AP is always forwarded through the best path. The APs decide the best path to reach the destination and forward packets accordingly. Setting the VLAN to tunnel mode ensures packets are bridged between local Ethernet ports, any local radios, and tunnels to other APs, wireless controllers, and service platforms. |
ACLs can only be used with tunnel or isolated-tunnel modes. They do not work with the local and automatic modes.
