devolo dLAN business solutions are a favourably priced
option to establish a broadband IP network in a building—using the power grid or according to the dLAN
pro product also coax lines or two-wire lines.
Positioning anywhere in a building is possible due to
the flexibility of dLAN pro networking over an existing
power line: even areas without a network connection
are perfectly integrated this way. dLAN can be used as
an easily scalable, primary network as well as to supplement an existing infrastructure.
d evol o dL AN pr o 1200+ WiFi ac/n
The advantage this brings is obvious: no new cables
have to be laid—expenditure and costs remain low.

monitoring options.
The dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac provides the IEEE
802.11ac wireless standard and offers reliable support
for 2.4 and 5 GHz devices, even during parallel operation.
The dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi n provides the IEEE
802.11n wireless standard and offers reliable support
for 2.4 GHz devices.
The configuration of VLAN and dynamic VLAN is just as
simple as configuring the legacy rate sets and viewing
Syslog entries.
The device can be optimally adapted to various usage
scenarios thanks to interfaces that can be disabled and
deactivation of the function buttons.

It features 2 gigabit Ethernet ports.
The dLAN powerline technology uses the internal power line and thus enables flexible positioning of the
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n everywhere in the building.
쎲 1200 Mbps (gross) connection for fast data trans-
mission via dLAN
쎲 MIMO technology for the best transmission and
reception performance.
쎲 Optimal dLAN security with a 128-bit AES encryp-
tion.
The dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac has four internal WiFi
antennas and supports the high-speed "IEEE 802.11a/
b/g/n/ac" WiFi standards with a data transmission rate
of up to 1200 Mbps (IEEE 802.11ac at speeds up to
866 Mbps and IEEE 802.11n at speeds of up to 300
Mbps).
The dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi n has two internal WiFi
antennas and supports the high-speed "IEEE 802.11a/
b/g/n" WiFi standards with a data transmission rate of
up to 300 Mbps (IEEE 802.11n).
Lowering the transmitting power—e. g. if you do not
require a large range. For example, if the client is in the
same room as the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n.
Separation of user groups and granular access control
through access points (Multi SSID) and VLAN.
Remote management via the
devolo dLAN AVpro manager software.
2.2 All about the network
This chapter describes application scenarios in order to
provide an overview of the various WiFi pro networks
possible with the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n.
2.2.1 dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n as a WiFi access point
As WiFi access point, the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n
provides the other WiFi stations (e. g. laptops, IP radios
or IP telephones) with a dLAN pro network connection
and Internet via the mains outlet available wirelessly or
by Ethernet.
This is particularly practical if not all client stations are
within range of a WiFi access point, for example because concrete walls disrupt the signal. With dLAN pro
various rooms can be easily connected via the mains
supply. And using the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n,
every mains outlet can be turned quickly and easily into
a WiFi connection with excellent reception quality.
The following illustration shows how the Internet connection is set up using the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n
and a router, and how the connection within the network is set up using additional dLAN pro devices.

2.2.2 dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n as WDS bridge
Wireless bridging is the wireless connection of WiFi
networks and is used to expand network coverage.
2.2.3 Static VLAN
VLANs provide the option of assigning the payload
from WiFi users from various user groups (e.g. employees from various departments or guests) to any VLAN
and, therefore, separating the data streams in your
network from each other.
WDS (Wireless Distribution System) is a process for
data addressing in accordance with the IEEE 802.11
standard.
Figure 3 shows a WiFi network, which is connected to
the Internet router via WDS using two
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n.
The payload is transmitted to or received by the LAN

agement VLAN is used for configuration and operation
of the WiFi access point. This includes communication
with DHCP, DNS, RADIUS and a time server.
Once you have created additional VLANs, there is an
option to change the Management VLAN or convert it
to tagged. In this case, make sure that the port of the
connected Ethernet switch is appropriately configured
for this purpose.
If you can no longer access the
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n due to a
configuration error, you can reset it
to its factory defaults by holding the
reset button for 10 seconds using a
pointed object (e.g. paperclip).

The following illustration shows a building with a single physical network architecture that in turn has
to be used by two different companies separately
and isolated.
All network-compatible devices are connected on a
single dLAN pro network and share a broadband connection and a VLAN-capable router. All data traffic
from each company in this building is contained in a
separate VLAN. Here, each data packet sent over the
dLAN pro network is given a VLAN tag specific to each
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n.
Each VLAN tag contains a unique VLAN ID: The VLAN
of the Bergmann company, for example, uses a

This configuration ensures that each company has access only to its own assigned data traffic even
though all data runs through the same, commonly
used physical network.
2.2.4 Dynamic VLAN
The use of dynamic VLANs (virtual LANs) in Enterprise
WiFi provides a series of advantages for the administrator and WiFi users.
The following applies to WiFi users:
쎲 The WiFi network (SSID) can be located more eas-
ily, because only one SSID is visible for various
VLANs.
쎲 This provides more bandwidth for payloads within
a WiFi network, because each additional broadcast SSID worsens the efficiency of the radio interface.
The following applies to administrators:
쎲 Central assignment of WiFi users to VLANs in the
RADIUS server or an associated directory service.
쎲 Dynamic change to the assignment without inter-
action by the WiFi user.
Here, a standard VLAN can be defined for an SSID. If
the RADIUS server does not provide a VLAN assignment for a user, the user is assigned automatically to
the default VLAN.
If no default VLAN is configured, these users are rejected from using the WiFi access point. Adding a VLAN is
not required for this configuration. Management data
are transmitted untagged and the payloads from users are given the VLAN tag assigned by the RADIUS.

4.4.2 LAN/IP configuration
As a component of your network, the
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n also communicates via the
TCP/IP protocol. The IP address required for this can either be entered manually as a static address or obtained automatically from a DHCP server.
The option Get IP configuration from a DHCP
server is enabled in the factory defaults. The currently
assigned network data are hidden.
If a DHCP server is already present in the network for
giving out IP addresses, have the option Get IP con-
figuration from a DHCP server enabled so that the
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n automatically receives an
address from it.
You can also assign a static IP address by specifying entries under Address, Subnet mask, Standard gate-
way and Name server. If the
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n is to act as the DHCP server, activate the option Act as DHCP server.
4.4.3 LAN/VLANs
The VLAN configuration of the LAN
ports is intended for future use.
You can configure VLANs on the device. To add a
VLAN, click on the plus symbol. Then, select whether
it is a Management VLAN or if the VLAN is to be con-
figured untagged.

Creating a VLAN
The factory defaults do not have VLAN configured. You
can create VLANs by clicking the Plus icon. In doing
so, a VLAN (VLAN 1 to VLAN 16) has to be selected and
a VLAN ID (1 to 4094) assigned. When creating VLANs,
already assigned VLAN IDs cannot be assigned a second time.
When configuring the VLANs and the
VLAN port settings, the web interface of the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/
n should remain accessible, i.e. configurable. If you can no longer access
the dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n despite this, reset the device back to
factory defaults (see chapter 3.3.4
Reset).
Page 50
Network configuration 50
You can display details about the VLANs to be created
using the Search field.

To delete a VLAN, first select it by clicking the corresponding table row and confirm by pressing Delete
(recycle bin icon).
For detailed information about this, refer to
the online FAQs on our website www.devo-
lo.com/business-solutions.
The behaviour of the ports is configured using the untagged option. If the untagged option is not selected, outgoing frames from this port are sent as
tagged.
If the untagged option is selected, outgoing
frames from this port are sent as untagged.
The untagged option can be selected for one VLAN
port at maximum.
Incoming untagged frames are marked with VLAN
port that is set to untagged.
If no VLAN port is set to untagged and at least one
VLAN is created, incoming untagged frames are
discarded.

For example, if you encrypted your
dLAN pro network with help from
dLAN AVpro manager before, then
add this device to the network in the
same way.
Add device
If you would like to manually add a new dLAN pro device, provide its security ID and confirm with Save/En-
crypt.
If a new device is added with the help of
dLAN AVpro manager (see 3.5 dLAN AVpro manager), you can disregard the dLAN pro setting here.
For detailed descriptions and information on
configuration of your dLAN pro network please
consult the devolo dLAN AVpro manager manual at
www.devolo.com/en/business-solutions.
dLAN network mode
There are two logical operating modes for dLANs.
dLANs are set up in peer-to-peer operating mode by
default. Alternatively, there is also the MDU operating
mode, which you can configure with dLAN AVpro manager.
쎲 In the dLAN peer-to-peer [P2P] operating
mode, every dLAN device on the dLAN can communicate with every other dLAN device on the
same dLAN directly. Within a P2P network, all
dLAN devices are equal to each another in the
hierarchy. In order to coordinate the communication between the individual end points of the network, the dLAN devices in the P2P network
automatically determine the dLAN device which is
easiest for all devices in this same dLAN network
to reach. This device takes on the role of the Cen-
tral Coordinator [CCo], which ensures efficient
communication between the individual end points
[peers] in the P2P network.
devolo dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n
Page 54
Network configuration 54
The standard auto mode in
dLAN AVpro manager should only be
changed by experts.
쎲 In the dLAN operating mode known as "Multiple
Dwelling Unit" [MDU], one or more dLAN devices
are assigned as 'slaves' to a single dLAN device as
'master', and together they form a shared, logical
network segment. Each of these MDU dLAN segments always contains exactly one master and 1
to 63 slaves which are assigned to the master. In
MDU operating mode, direct data communication
is only between the slave and its master ["peer
isolation"], and never from slave to slave.

Data rates
Only change the preconfigured data rates if
you understand the concept behind them.
Setting the radio data rates entails selecting the data
rates used by the WiFi access point for transmission.
The WiFi access point sends all packets with the largest
possible basic rate. If the distance between the WiFi
access point and the WiFi stations is too large for this
data rate or faults and interference occur, packets are
sent with the next smallest basic rate. At least one basic rate must be selected. Unicast packets can also be
sent with the supported data rates which are not basic
rates.
You can optimise the WiFi access point either for maximum range or for the best performance by varying the
data rates. The maximum range is achieved when the
basic rate is set only to 1 Mbps, all data rates, however, are supported.
If a WiFi station only supports 802.11b, no basic rates
outside of 1; 2; 5.5 or 11 Mbps (default) can be used.
For optimisation to ensure the best performance, it
makes more sense to exclude all 802.11b clients (CCK
modulation) by having the 1, 2, 5.5 or 11 Mbps rates
both as not supported as well as not selected as basic
rates.
devolo dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n
Page 58
Network configuration 58
You should select multiple data rates as basic rates,
e.g. 6, 12 or 24 Mbps (recommended) so that multicast
packets are sent at 24 Mbps, if possible.
Furthermore, the smallest selected basic rate is used
for emitting the SSID (beacon). The larger this rate is,
the more efficient the WiFi is being used. Note that this
can reduce the maximum range.

5.1 Basic information
5.1.1 MAC adresse
The MAC address designates the hardware interface of
each individual network device uniquely (e.g. the WiFiWiFi card of a computer or the Ethernet port of a printer). It consists of six double-digit hexadecimal
numbers, each separated by a colon (e.g.
00:0B:3B:37:9D:C4). In general, the MAC address is
on the housing of the device.
mand prompt under Start All Programs
Accessories Command Prompt. Enter the command IPCONFIG /ALL here. The MAC address is displayed under the designation Physical address.
5.1.2 What exactly is dLAN?
dLAN (direct Local Area Network) uses the household
power grid to transfer data between computers
equipped with suitable adapters and other network
components. As a result, any power outlet can be used
as a network access point. The data is modulated prior
to transfer and sent as a signal via household power
lines. State-of-the-art technology ensures that the
power and data networks do not interfere with one another. Networking via dLAN is fast and secure. The
data is encrypted using a key (128-bit-AES encryption)
to prevent interception by third parties.
5.1.3 What is VLAN?
A VLAN (Virtual Local Area Network, IEEE 802.1Q) is
a logical, self-enclosed, local network – unlike a physical (switched) network. VLANs divide physical networks into multiple logical, independent networks.
They optimise data distribution and make it easier to
set up network architecture that is more secure and ar-
You can easily determine the MAC address of a Windows computer by opening the window with the com-
d evol o dL AN pr o 1200+ WiFi ac/n
ranged more clearly.
Page 67
67 Appendix
Using VLANs prevents the need for complicated physical wiring. This gives you greater spatial flexibility and
saves you having to purchase multiple costly individual
devices (e.g. routers, switches).
Different criteria can be used for mapping to VLANs,
such as port assignments or addresses. The
dLAN pro 1200+ WiFi ac/n allows VLANs to be
mapped by port and/or access point. Other mapping
methods by third-party devices using "VLAN tags" are
also supported. In addition, it is possible to prioritise
data traffic in the VLAN configuration.
5.1.4 What is WLAN (WiFi)?
WLAN (Wireless Local Area Network) refers to the use
of radio technology to network computers and other
devices. While it is possible to wirelessly connect computers in pairs (peer-to-peer, p2p), a central access
point is required to set up a network of multiple devices. Such access points are frequently combined in a
single device with modems for Internet access and
routers to manage network traffic.
The wireless network established by an access point
using a specific channel and name (SSID) has a limited
range. The range of the access point, which is also
known as a "radio cell", is impeded by building walls.
In some cases, stable connections are often only possible between WLAN devices within a single room.
As it is not possible to rely on hardware such as network cables (in a LAN) or household wiring (in a dLAN)
to control access to a WLAN, wireless networking naturally presents special security challenges. WLANs
therefore use a number of security measures, such as a
concealed network name (SSID), data encryption and
access control via the MAC addresses of the network
stations.
