USG Guest with Cisco Wireless Controller

AhmadZ — Wed, 15 Jun 2022 13:11:50 GMT

Hi All, I want to know if Cisco Wireless Controller can work with USG for guest wifi. For example, I have SSID created on the Cisco Wireless Controller that I want to pass to the USG. So I want to use the USG for the guest SSID on the Cisco WLC along with the USG firewall capabilities.

Does this work?

Thanks in advance!

You mean the Ubiquiti product? The wireless controller will terminate the SSID and then just layer2 VLAN to the USG correct? No reason why this shouldn't work.

Yes the Unifi Security Gateway (Ubiquiti Product). I want to pass the SSID on the Cisco WLC to the USG Guest portal

No reason why this shouldn't work. Drop the SSID onto a VLAN. Make sure that VLAN is published to the USG with the layer3 on the USG.

I have the VLAN created on the Cisco Coreswitch, and the SSID on the Cisco WLC is tagged with a VLAN ID. You mean that I should have the VLAN for the Guest SSID created on the USG and tag the SSID on the Cisco WLC with such VLAN?

Correct. So assuming VLAN 2 here with an IP range of 10.10.2.0/24:

Cisco WLC---VLAN2--->Core Switch (no IP interface in VLAN2)----->VLAN2---->USG--->VLAN2/10.10.2.1
