Hi All,
I hope this email finds you well.
I am writing to request your assistance with configuring multiple VLANs on our network. Below are the details of the configuration we need:
VLAN Configuration on Firewall LAN Port:
DHCP Configuration:
L2 Switch Configuration:
Could you please provide guidance or support on how to proceed with these configurations? Any documentation or step-by-step instructions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you for your assistance.
Hi Srinivas
Here how you can create a VLAN interface and set DHCP server on it.

Hi AEK,
Thanks for your inputs, and I Cisco 2960 (L2) switch and Ruckus access points.
So, i want connect the cisco 2960 switch under firewall lan port (VLAN based),
Means switch port uplink will be trunk and other port which is connected to access point that is also trunk.
under access points, i will create two SSIDd and each SSID will assign separate vlan.
please let me know, will it fine?
Yes it looks fine.
Thanks AKE, I created trunk port, where the Access Point is connected.
The it is starts working.
And another option is, SSID is single and multiple VLANs
Means, all users will connect to same SSID, but user1 will get 10.10.10.x series and user2 will get 10.10.20.x series.
here we created local accounts with MAC and user based authentication.
Please can you suggest on this.
Here you need RADIUS server that will assign VLAN according to the authenticated user/group.
