|
||||
Physical interfaces may be arranged into a link aggregation group (LAG) and associated with a parent LAG (virtual) interface. LAG interfaces can be recursively nested to model bonding of trunk groups. Like all virtual interfaces, LAG interfaces cannot be connected physically.
|
||||
|
||||
### Wireless Interfaces
|
||||
|
||||
Wireless interfaces may additionally track the following attributes:
|
||||
|
||||
* **Role** - AP or station
|
||||
* **Channel** - One of several standard wireless channels
|
||||
* **Channel Frequency** - The transmit frequency
|
||||
* **Channel Width** - Channel bandwidth
|
||||
|
||||
If a predefined channel is selected, the frequency and width attributes will be assigned automatically. If no channel is selected, these attributes may be defined manually.
|
||||
|
||||
### IP Address Assignment
|
||||
|
||||
IP addresses can be assigned to interfaces. VLANs can also be assigned to each interface as either tagged or untagged. (An interface may have only one untagged VLAN.)

# Wireless LANs
|
||||
|
||||
A wireless LAN is a set of interfaces connected via a common wireless channel. Each instance must have an SSID, and may optionally be correlated to a VLAN. Wireless LANs can be arranged into hierarchical groups.
|
||||
|
||||
An interface may be attached to multiple wireless LANs, provided they are all operating on the same channel. Only wireless interfaces may be attached to wireless LANs.
|
||||
|
||||
Each wireless LAN may have authentication attributes associated with it, including:
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication type
|
||||
* Cipher
|
||||
* Pre-shared key

# Wireless LAN Groups
|
||||
|
||||
Wireless LAN groups can be used to organize and classify wireless LANs. These groups are hierarchical: groups can be nested within parent groups. However, each wireless LAN may assigned only to one group.

# Wireless Links
|
||||
|
||||
A wireless link represents a connection between exactly two wireless interfaces. It may optionally be assigned an SSID and a description. It may also have a status assigned to it, similar to the cable model.
|
||||
|
||||
Each wireless link may have authentication attributes associated with it, including:
|
||||
|
||||
* Authentication type
|
||||
* Cipher
|

* Pre-shared key
