**3.** Add the devices to the bind list using the MAC address of a device in case you want to reserve a specific IP address for any specific device.

**4**.&nbsp; **Network -\> VLAN** :-

&nbsp; &nbsp; a. Add **new interface** to Create VLAN interface

&nbsp; &nbsp; b. Configure **IP Address** &nbsp;( same as created as gateway on DHCP)

&nbsp; &nbsp; c. Check the " **NAT**" option to enable it so the client will get internet access.

Now the client connect to this SSID will get IP Address from the pool configured on the device.
