If you enable VLAN tagging in an SSID, is management VLAN tagging required in the Gateway Wireless Controller settings?

When VLAN tagging is enabled in an SSID, management VLAN tagging is not a requirement in the Gateway Wireless Controller settings. This is because VLAN tagging for the SSID operates independently from the management VLAN configuration. The purpose of VLAN tagging in the SSID context is to segregate traffic based on the different VLANs configured for user access. This allows for the efficient routing of data for different groups, such as employees or guests, without the need for the management VLAN to be tagged or defined in the wireless controller.

This means that even if you want to separate traffic for an SSID using VLANs, it does not impose the necessity of tagging the management VLAN. Each can operate based on its function: management VLAN handles the controller and its configuration, while SSID VLAN tagging is focused on user data traffic. Thus, the statement is accurate in asserting that management VLAN tagging is not required simply because VLAN tagging is enabled on an SSID.
