Goal: Add an Aerohive AP to an existing network to function as a Bonjour Gateway and share services across subnet/VLAN boundaries.
Required: HiveManager Online account; AP running HiveOS 5.1r1; VLAN-aware switch and router; at least two subnets/VLANs; Bonjour Browser

Use VLAN 1 as the native VLAN and HiveManager

ensure that a DHCP server is reachable Online
from devices in that VLAN.
