VLAN for web interface traffic

I wasn't able to find if this is possible nor any plans if it's not currently. R750 allows me to deliver a trunk for multiple SSIDs configured, I can also configure a management VLAN which is used for communication between multiple R750s. However, the web interface for management seems to still only work with untagged packets. This forces me to deliver a hybrid port.

 

Is this by design, or is there any way to move the web ui to a separate VLAN?

"Enable VLAN for Management Interface" doesn't work?

I'm sorry I missed your answer. However, this doesn't seem to work as expected. You cannot set the same IP in "System => IP Settings => IP Settings" as in "System => IP Settings => Management Interface". The second one seems to be  used for management traffic between APs?

 

I see a document here: https://docs.commscope.com/bundle/unleashed-200.13-onlinehelp/page/GUID-3165BBFB-9B32-413F-A11F-95FC... which contains "Access VLAN" field:

My AP, despite running 200.13.6.1.319 doesn't have such field:

In addition, I verified CLI as well. As described in https://docs.commscope.com/bundle/unleashed-200.13-commandref/page/GUID-D8A9CA4D-8126-43A8-9C4B-8D6D... the "vlan" in "config-sys-if" context should let me see the VLAN, but that command doesn't exist on my AP:

 

ruckus(config-sys-if)# vlan

There doesn't seem to be any updates for R650 (my test one, I don't have a R750 not in production) as of today:

Click on the “management interface” tab and you’ll see the ‘enable VLAN’ checkbox.

Are you're talking about this screen:

This isn't it. It will not use DHCP, it uses any-cast and static addressing and it seems to be used for AP-AP communication. It doesn't enable VLAN on the main WAN interface in IP Settings like in docs.
