Model: EAP620 HD  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.3

I have ER7206 and EAP620 HD connected to TL-SG1005P (unmanaged switch).

Both are in standalone mode. I don't want to use OC200 or Omada SDN for this network setup.

This screenshot came from EAP620HD in Management tab > Management Access

Management VLAN

 

I read the Knowledge base page but it doesn't really do example.

I can put EAP620HD in same VLAN 30 and point the Management VLAN to VLAN ID 1? So it automatically blocks devices inside VLAN 30 from reaching the management page.

 

That's right. But once you enable the management VLAN, the EAP web interface will only accept tagged data. Means you need to use a tagged port on your router(that has VLAN1 tagged) to connect this EAP, otherwise you will not able to manage the EAP anymore.

Hi @YuukiA,

 

With Managmenet VLAN 1 enable, the EAP will only allow tagged data in VLAN1 to access it's web UI or manage it. 

 

For example you have admin VLAN1 and guest VLAN2 in differnet subnets. But you only want admin VLAN 1 can manage your EAP, and want to block manage access from VLAN2. Then this option will be useful. 

 

Here is an exmaple for CPE, but it's the same thing for EAP:

Using this picture as an example:

 

 

VLAN 1 = LAN = Where the main devices live (EAP620HD)

VLAN 30 = Test = Where client devices connect, basically guest.

 

instead of putting EAP620HD (192.168.30.100) in VLAN 30, where the client device (192.168.30.101) can access the management page of EAP620HD,

 

I can put EAP620HD in same VLAN 30 and point the Management VLAN to VLAN ID 1? So it automatically blocks devices inside VLAN 30 from reaching the management page.

 

Is that correct? Correct my understanding if there are errors within them. Thank you.

  @YuukiA Your efforts to build a network without resorting to a cloud-based controller, like OC200 or Omada SDN, are clear. Adjusting the Management Access setting on the EAP620HD's Management tab will ensure that your ER7206 and EAP620HD are properly linked to the TL-SG1005P switch.

I want to learn as much as possible from the router and learn how it works in standalone mode.

Because there are so many documentations on Omada SDN but not a lot in standalone of their individual routers.

I want to be a good network admin for my job. smiley
