VLAN Support
Management VLAN
Mimosa Backhaul radios support the use of a VLAN ID for management.
Different Management VLANs within Link
If two radios in a link are configured with different VLAN IDs, they are not able to exchange management data
including timing, spectrum, and location. This can affect both the Dashboard display and performance. The same
VLAN ID must be used on both radios if a VLAN is desired.
QinQ (IEEE 802.1ad)
The Mimosa Backhaul does not natively support QinQ for management, but they do forward 802.1ad traffic (multiple
VLAN tags within a single frame).
VLAN Passthrough
Mimosa Backhaul products are designed to operate as a Layer 2 transparent bridge (a virtual wire) for maximum
performance. The radios simply pass all traffic, regardless of type, including other VLAN IDs.
