L2/L3 Network Mode Support

TheInstant APfunctioning as a VirtualControllerenables differentDHCPDynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network.pools (various deployment models) in addition to allocating IP子网sSubnet is the logical division of an IP network.to each branch.

Instant APs support the followingDHCPDynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network.configuration modes:

L2 Switching Mode: In this mode,Instant APsupports distributed L2 and centralized L2 switching modes of connection to the corporate network. When a nInstant APregisters with thecontrollerand has an L2 modeDHCPDynamic Host Configuration Protocol. A network protocol that enables a server to automatically assign an IP address to an IP-enabled device from a defined range of numbers configured for a given network.pool configured, thecontrollerautomatically adds theGREGeneric Routing Encapsulation. GRE is an IP encapsulation protocol that is used to transport packets over a network.orVPNVirtual Private Network. VPN enables secure access to a corporate network when located remotely. It enables a computer to send and receive data across shared or public networks as if it were directly connected to the private network, while benefiting from the functionality, security, and management policies of the private network. This is done by establishing a virtual point-to-point connection through the use of dedicated connections, encryption, or a combination of the two.tunnel associated to thisInstant APinto theVLANVirtual Local Area Network. In computer networking, a single Layer 2 network may be partitioned to create multiple distinct broadcast domains, which are mutually isolated so that packets can only pass between them through one or more routers; such a domain is referred to as a Virtual Local Area Network, Virtual LAN, or VLAN.multicast table.
