 +Here's where things differ a little bit. In the Cisco world, you just create VLANs and worry about the details later. With UniFi, you need to decide if this is a VLAN-only (just a pain old 802.11q tag) or you're creating a new VLAN complete with subnet. Here's a hint - if you have a USG acting as your router, you want the latter. VLAN only gives you a rather simple set of options. Use this option if you have another firewall/router doing routing. Give it a name, enter the VLAN ID (tag/number), and if you want IGMP snooping and DHCP guarding. If you want the latter, select the network purpose as "corporate". Corporate will give you the option to set a VLAN ID, subnet, DHCP range, etc. You're essentially creating "router-on-a-stick" with this method - your USG will be the gateway.
