Captive Portal with two or more WAP321

Hello,

I plan to use the WAP321 as a WLAN Hotspot. But I need more than one AP. What is the Design for this?

Do I need to configure every WAP321 with the captive portal and the user need to re-login every time they roam to another WAP321?

Or can I redirect all WAP321 AP to one captive portal?

Thank for your support.

Hello Christian,

how did you solve it?

Tks.

Nicola

Hey Nicola,

until now there is no solution for this issue. I reported it to cisco and they will add it in the next Firmware.

I got this answer on August 31th:

We have submitted your request for the "DE-WAP321-feature  request - more characters for the captive portal" to be added to the firmware. This might take months to come up with a firmware that will have the feature added in. Please  check future firmware for this Bug number "CSCub92801" . We will place on the release note of future firmware upgrades to the DE-WAP321. At this point we will be close this case

best regards

Christian

Ciao Christian,

many tks for your prompt answer.......................

I was hoping for a positive answer.....

I'm obliged to find another solution with another company..............

Probably cisco as "small business" really means to a very small business with little offices..................

In any case Grazie.............

..... I have just canceled the order of 3 WAP321 ...........

Ciao

Nicola,

It may be too late, but with the new version1.0.2.3 software you can create a cluster of up to 8 WAP321's in order to share one configuration.  The feature is called Single Point.   Here is a paper on the feature

Tks John,

it's to late...............................

Probably I found a "professional" solution.....

I bought

1 AIR-CT2504-5-K9 (AIR-CT2504-5-K9 2504 Wireless Controller)

3 AIR-CAP2602I-E-K9 ( 802.11N CAP W/CLEANAIR)

Expensive, but very professional

OTTIMO............ I'm very satisfied!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
