Preserve Client VLAN

    Hi,

     

    I have setup my legacy VLANs (organization's running VLANs) on Aruba controller. I want my users to get the IP from the department specified VLAN. Suppose if account department has the VLAN ID 115 then I want my wireless clients in the accounts department to get the IP from the same VLAN as they get if they are connected through a cable in the department.

     

    I have seen an attribute in the AP profile which says "Preserve Client VLAN" will enabling this help me to achieve what I have stated above? Otherwise how I can achieve what I have stated.

     

    Kindly guide.

    You will want to use a combination of role-based access, radius returned attributes (in your case group=a, then Role/Vlan = xx,  group = b, then Role/Vlan == yy)

     

    I would suggest you have a look through the user manual in the area of 'server derivation rules' and 'radius attributes' as starting points.
