WLAN-LAN Bridge

Martin Mosch

Hallo,

ich habe ein kleines Verständnisproblem was den Modus WLAN to LAN Bridge betrifft, wenn man 2 seperate LANs betreibt.

Ich habe folgende LAN

A = Verwaltung

B= Produktion

In beiden LAN sollen jeweils auch beide WLAN funktionieren.

Wenn ich nun ein AP in der Produktion installiere und dem Accespoint das WLAN Verwaltung zuweise(welches zum AP-LAN gebridget ist), dann bekommt doch das WLAN Verwaltung eine IP aus dem Produktionsnetz, richtig?

Ich denke der AP-Bridge Mode fällt ganz weg bei diesem Szenario. Da ja im Produktionsbereich das WLAN Verwaltung auch an verschiedenen APs zur Verfügung stehen soll, kann ich es ja nicht in das LAN "bridgen" da es ja dann eine andere IP hat.

Ich denke ich muss extra WLAN Netze anlegen und den Traffic mit Firewallregeln regeln, oder habe ich ein Denkfehler?

Gruß Martin

    Hi

    Thank you for reaching out to the Community! 

    When you create a bridge to AP LAN wireless network, wireless clients will share the same IP address range configured on the physical LAN interface that AP is connected to. If you connect the new AP in the production network port/interface, all the wireless clients will share the same network address range configured on that production interface. 

    If you are trying to allow traffic between administration and production networks, you need to configure a firewall rule. Suppose you have the wireless network bridge to AP LAN. The AP is connected to the production LAN; you would need a firewall rule to allow traffic from the WLAN(Production) to your administration network. 

    Thanks,
