   * A few additional steps are required for the VLAN tagging function of hostapd to work as intended.
+  * We need to include a few options to instruct hostapd how to handle the VLANs.
-<alert type="danger">TO BE COMPLETED</alert>
+  * Refer to this snippet from /etc/config/wireless
+<code bash>
+option wpa_psk_file '/etc/hostapd.wpa_psk'
+option vlan_file '/etc/hostapd.vlan'
+option vlan_tagged_interface 'eth0'
+option vlan_bridge 'br-vlan'
+option dynamic_vlan '1'
+</code>
+  * Then here is an example of hostapd.vlan
+<code bash>
+# VLAN ID to network interface mapping
+	vlan1
+	vlan2
+	vlan3
+	vlan4
+	guest
+# Optional wildcard entry matching all VLAN IDs. The first # in the interface
+# name will be replaced with the VLAN ID. The network interfaces are created
+# (and removed) dynamically based on the use.
+*	vlan#
+</code>
+  * hostapd will create a bridge with each VLAN and automatically create tagged interfaces and make them members of this bridge:
+<code bash>
+root@OpenWrt:~# brctl show
+bridge name     bridge id               STP enabled     interfaces
+br-vlan3        8000.4018b1eb3c80       no              vlan3
+                                                        eth0.3
+br-lan          7fff.4018b1eb3c80       no              eth0
+</code>
