LAN Port | For Linksys LAPAC1300CW only. Behaviour
NOTE: To configure a VLAN ID for an SSID got to Wi-Fi SSIDs, click on Settings for an SSID, click on Addressing, enable the VLAN tagging, enter your VLAN ID, and click Save. It is recommended to configure VLAN settings on your network to prevent a wired client from having access to all the networks connected to the ethernet ports otherwise just disable the ports. VLAN Tagging - Disabled by default. Select Enabled and enter your VLAN ID, this VLAN ID will apply to both Ethernet 2 and 3 when Bridged to WAN is selected. PoE out - By default this option is disabled, meaning the Ethernet 2 port can be used as a regular LAN port without PoE capabilities. However, if you want to connect a PoE client, you need to enable this option in the Linksys Cloud Manager in order to provide power to the PoE client. The access point will need to be powered with an 802.3at PoE+ connection (on Ethernet 1 port located on the back) in order for this option to work. Powering the access point with a standard 802.3af PoE connection or a 12V,1A power adapter will not provide sufficient power to enable this port. |
