Physical port setup is handled by your network people. "Do not try this
at home."
A few things to remember:
- Every VLAN represents a unique subnet
- Routing between the subnets is controlled by your external
switch/router.
- Do not casually connect a single guest to multiple VLANs. This is where
you can easily introduce security problems.
- If you use the VSWITCH, you don't have to configure each guest to be
VLAN-aware. CP will hide it. When you authorize a guest to a VSWITCH,
you can set his VLAN ID. This is just like access ("regular") ports on
the physical switch. They are typically assigned to a VLAN - you just
don't know it and don't care, a.k.a. "the miracle in step 2".
