Hello,

I have a USG 200H (1) + GS-1920HP (2) + WBE-630S (20).

In the USG 200's LAN configuration, I set a LAN (Lan_Management IP: 192.168.88.254/24 P4,P5) + Guest VLANs (172.xxx. VLAN 172) P4,P5 + LanDevice (10.10.x P6-P7-P8).

In the Nebula switch settings → I set 88 Management VLAN (Mgmt VLAN).

On port P25 of the switch, I set PVID 88. (And I can configure the switch. IP of Switch are 192.168.88.x)

Now I want all the IPs of the various APs to be on VLAN 88 (IP 192.168.88.x). Is this possible setting to all APs?

Accepted Solution

    Hi @Alex_91,

    Your current configuration for placing all APs in VLAN 88 is correct. Another method is to change the management interface on AP.

    Additionally, in most network deployments, the topology and port assignments are pre-planned, so manually setting the PVID on the switch ports where APs are connected is the standard practice. As for your question about dynamically assigning PVID 88 to APs regardless of which port they are connected to: this is not typically required for access points, but if you would like this kind of automatic VLAN assignment, you can configure Vendor ID based VLAN under Site-wide > Configure > Switches > Switch settings in Nebula. This feature allows you to map a vendor’s MAC address OUI to a specific VLAN and priority. Please note that it requires a Nebula Plus/Pro Pack license.

    For detailed instructions, please refer to the FAQ here:

    OK, I found a first solution:
    I set PVID 88 where I connected the APs, but isn't there a way to dynamically assign PVID88 to the access points regardless of where they're connected?
