3850 WLC guest account creation

[ncardinaux]

Hello,

Current configuration : stack WS-C3850-12X48U in version 03.07.03E

My need is to delegate the guest account creation to a receptionist. So, I have to create an account for the receptionist that allows to log in to the gui and only to create guest account.

Unfortunately, until now I don't achieve it. I created a lobby account with type lobby-admin but once connected, this account can manage every features on the controller.

Someone, already did what I want to do before?

Thanks

Hi there,

I believe you are hitting this bug;

https://bst.cloudapps.cisco.com/bugsearch/bug/CSCuz35087

Lobby ambassador user-name gives full GUI access NGWC 3.7.3

CSCuz35087

Symptom:
When a "lobby-admin" account logs in to the WLC running 3.7.3, they are presented with full access to the WLC just as if they had logged in with the full admin account. This is incorrect per lobby-admin design. This issue is not seen on other NGWC versions of software.

Conditions:
NGWC controller (5760, 3850, 3650) running 3.7.3 software

lobby admin account configured

User logs in with lobby admin account

Workaround:
none for 3.7.3.

User could upgrade/downgrade software
