C200P 工作模式和拓扑结构

C200P 是一款功能全面的网络设备，集成了路由器和 AP 控制器功能，提供两种工作模式：主路由器和 AP 控制器（默认）以及AP 控制器模式。本指南提供设置说明和网络拓扑建议，以实现最佳性能。

1. 主路由器和AP控制器（默认）

在这种模式下，C200P 同时充当路由器和 AP 控制器。
建议管理≤10个AP和≤100个客户端。

拓扑结构 1：互联网 - C200P - 交换机 - AP

  • 使用场景：适用于管理多个 AP（需要交换机来扩展端口容量）。
  • 设置要求：
    • 将调制解调器连接到 C200P 的 WAN 端口，将 C200P 的 LAN 端口连接到交换机，再将 AP 连接到交换机。
    • 确保 C200P 和 AP 处于同一 VLAN中，因为 AP 管理流量不携带 VLAN 标签。
  • SSID VLAN 支持：
    • 启用 SSID VLAN 将使客户端数据在从 AP 发送出去时携带 VLAN 标签。
    • C200P 不支持 VLAN 或 VLAN 接口。
    • 要启用 SSID VLAN，交换机必须支持 VLAN、VLAN 接口和 DHCP 服务器，以便为 SSID VLAN 中的无线客户端分配 IP 地址。

拓扑结构 2：互联网 - C200P - AP

  • 使用场景：适用于≤4 个 AP的小型网络（受限于 C200P 的 4 个 LAN 端口）。
  • 设置要求：
    • 将调制解调器连接到 C200P 的 WAN 端口，将 AP 直接连接到 C200P 的 LAN 端口。
    • C200P、AP 和无线客户端在同一网络中运行。
  • SSID VLAN 支持：
    • 此拓扑中不支持SSID VLAN，因为 C200P 不支持 VLAN 或 VLAN 接口。

注： C200P未来将通过固件升级支持VLAN和VLAN接口。届时，即使交换机本身不支持VLAN，也可以在上述拓扑1和拓扑2中支持SSID VLAN。

2. AP控制器模式

在此模式下，C200P 仅作为 AP 控制器，管理 AP 配置和强制门户认证数据。

它支持≤200 个 AP ，客户端设备数量仅受网关或交换机容量的限制。

拓扑结构：互联网 - 路由器 - 交换机 - AP 和 C200P

  • 设置要求：
    • 将调制解调器连接到路由器，将路由器连接到交换机，再将 C200P 和 AP 都连接到交换机。
    • 将C200P切换至AP控制器模式：
      • 登录C200P网页界面。
      • 进入快速设置并选择AP 控制器模式。
    • 确保 C200P 和 AP 处于同一 VLAN中，因为 AP 管理流量不携带 VLAN 标签。
  • SSID VLAN 支持：
    • 要启用 SSID VLAN，网关或交换机必须支持 VLAN、VLAN 接口和 DHCP 服务器，以便为 SSID VLAN 中的无线客户端分配 IP 地址。

@Dear Bongani Bhembe,
C200P now support web-based cloud management function via cloud.cudy.com. We will also provide your feedback to the product department for evaluation.

“We are asking for the C200P to be added to the App for easy remote management. Please add it to App control”

@Dear Irshad Mohammed,
Sorry, C200P doesn’t support this function currently. We have plan to add it in next firmware update. Please wait patiently.

“On C200P firmware 2.5.15, how can I enforce Layer 3 isolation between VLAN 50 (Guest) and VLAN 1 (Private), including blocking access to router administration, while permitting Internet and captive portal access? Does this firmware support inter-VLAN ACLs or firewall rules?”

@Dear Kacper Rucinski,
Thank you for your kindly advice! We will provide your feedback to the product department for evaluation.

“Hello,

I just bought C200P today, swayed by its ability to bind clients to individual APs. However, I’m quite disappointed.

1) C200P doesn’t allow managing APs with a wireless backhaul. Do you have any plans to introduce this to the software? Currently, if a cable connection to an AP is interrupted, the AP fails – whereas it should continue working via wireless backhaul.

2) Adopting certain routers in AP mode fails. It fails to adopt the M3000 – factory reset and connected via cable. It similarly fails to adopt WR3000H. Both these devices could easily join mesh if a different device (e.g., AP3000) served as controller. So, while there’s no such mention on its web page, C200P seems to be much more limited with regard to supported access points. Any plans to allow other devices?

3) App management. While web management has its advantages, these days many network admins work on the go. Do you have plans to allow these devices to be managed from an app?

4) Suggestion: ethernet port location. With the exception of rack-mounted devices (which C200P is not), it’s usually more convenient and neat to have ethernet cables connected on the back of a device. For your next product, I suggest to consider placing ethernet ports on the back."
