Routed is a VNS type where user traffic is tunneled to the
SCALANCE IWLAN Controller.
Bridge Traffic Locally at WLC is a VNS type where user traffic is
tunneled to the SCALANCE IWLAN Controller and is directly
bridged at the controller to a specific VLAN. With this VNS type,
mobile users become a natural extension of a VLAN subnet. For
each Bridge Traffic Locally at WLC VNS that is created, a VLAN
needs to be specified. In addition, the network port on which the
VLAN is assigned must be configured on the switch, and the
corresponding SCALANCE IWLAN Controller interface must
match the correct VLAN.
