 VLAN enabled ports are generally categorized in one of two ways, tagged or untagged.
+  * VLANs can be port-based (assigning a physical port on a device to a VLAN) or tag-based (tagging particular kinds of traffic with a VLAN tag, as defined by 802.1q).
 Unifi, usually by default, have all switch ports able to consume both tagged and untagged traffic, but this can be modified.  This is known as trunking, i.e. to have a specific port enabled for VLAN tagging, and the other ports for general access.

+===== Other Considerations =====
+  * For greater security, no SSID should be untagged, i.e. be on the "native VLAN".
+  * The amount of broadcast traffic on the trunk port to which an AP is attached should be limited.
+    * Limiting broadcast traffic improves wireless performance.
