With the 16.0 release, network administrators do not have to define the VLANs received from the RADIUS server or CoA servers. The RADIUS server can dynamically generate VLANS for clients and send the VLAN to the access point (AP) when the client connects. This eliminates the need to manually configure all the dynamic VLANS in the SSID and Device settings. When Dynamic VLAN is enabled, network administrators do not have to configure the VLANs in SSID Settings; they are created dynamically on the AP.
