Broadcast SSID Problem

midgar31 — Sun, 04 Jul 2021 16:36:36 GMT

Hi,

I have a problem when i define the primary SSID. Im my campus i use EAP for two vlans and Open for other vlan, when i define the SSID for the vlans the clients wait a long time for the association. but when i define the primary SSID for the any of the two SSID using EAP this works well but the Open vlan dont associate the clients. if i define all the vlans with eap or open all works well. this happen when i upgrade to the last version of ios software, with anterior version the first configurations works well. i trying no define any primary ssid but in this mode dont work

Is it operating in guest mode? If so, only one SSID can be enable in guest mode which basically allows clients to associate to the Access Points without a SSID.

I think your problem is that Windows XP will always associate with the broadcast SSID.

I am using PEAP with TKIP and WPA and dynamic VLAN assignment with a RADIUS server, I can only use the XP client, and I need to somehow provide open guest access. Given the limitations of XP, I am running into problems being able to provide all of the above.

I would be interested in knowing if others have encountered the same issue and whether they have found a solution.
