The last step in deploying the Airwall secure network is to create an overlay. An overlay is a fabric of secured communications channels that allow trusted devices to communicate securely with each other. Overlays are controlled by Airwall Edge Services and administered by the Conductor.
Allowing VLAN tagged traffic in your overlay network

Allowing VLAN tagged traffic in your overlay network

If your overlay network needs to support VLAN tagged traffic, you must explicitly allow VLAN tagging:

Go to Overlays and select an overlay network.
In the Info section, click Edit Settings.
In the overlay dialog, click the VLAN tagged traffic tab and set the following:
1. Specify if tagged or untagged traffic is allowed on your network.
2. In Allowed tags, enter VLAN tags separated by commas. You may specify tags from 0 to 4095. Leave the field blank if you want to accept any VLAN tag.
Click Save.
