Meru Technical Note - Assigning a VLAN to ESS profile
Description
When creating an ESSID, we can assign a VLAN to the ESSID. This allows you isolate an ESSID to a specific part of your network. By default, ESSIDs do not have VLANs assigned to them. You must create a VLAN using the vlan command in global configuration mode before assigning the VLAN to an ESSID.
