how do you create an open ssid?

MZydorczyk2 — Sat, 03 Jul 2021 22:42:49 GMT

I want to create an open ssid with no authentication. How can I do this? When I use "authentication open" and "guest mode" i pick up the network but it shows it as secure.

I'm assuming this is a question about unified wireless (LWAPP)... sorry if I got it wrong. To make the SSID "open," set the Layer 2 security option under the created SSID as "None." This will leave the WLAN open with no encryption. Also make sure you're broadcasting the SSID (should be a check box under the WLAN). Hope this helps!

Sounds like you have some old Security settings in there.

Step 1. With the WEB interface select System software, Config, and reset to defaults except IP address.

Step 2. express setup set your SSID; you AP should be open to ALL.

Step 3. chose guest mode again to broadcat SSID

Enjoy

Due to the number of inter related settings in the AP I strongly suggest you use the GUI for the initial setup. once you have the AP configured you can display the saved/runnig config and see the command line. you cna then disable the GUI with the no HTTP server command if you need to for security reasons.

the other method to reset the AP is to hold down the mode button and then apply power and wait for the light to turn yellow and then release the mode button your AP will then be reset to default config.

What I am trying to do is create an SSID with complete open access and another SSID that goes to a radius (which is already set up on the access points). I want both of these ssid's to be on the same access point. Is it possible to do this? I was told you have to have 2 separate dot11 interfaces but this access point only has one dot11 interface, as you can see in the above config.
