Using VLAN in WAX620
Hi
May I ask some questions about using the VLAN for specific SSID please?
Actually I do have 2 different SSIDs on my AP already and I am planning to setup one of them for guest WIFI usage.
As this AP just got only 1 single network port, if I setup SSID2 for VLAN ID = 2 and the purpose is to allow for guest browsing only. What if I setup SSID1 for VLAN ID = 1 for our usual network usage (just like accessing to internet/intranet/share drive).
Is there any impact to the other SSID and how's it gonna work please? I would like to seek some helps to see how I can achieve such purpose. Thank you.

Of course you can.
Does your router offer multiple networks (like normal Internet and guest), either on two ports, or by offering VLAN support where you can tag one of the two (typically the guest one) for travelling over the same network port and connection?
