Hi all.
We have this need.
In an hospitality structure, we need to connect hotel customer to Wireless Network, but we don't want they have to performa authentication dot1x (because they need to authenticate them to BBSM yet...).
The issue is that we don't want that traffic goes in clear text on the air, so we want to pass a key (we think to WPA, but any other method is welvome) automatically to clients; in this way they crypto all traffic, without the need to insert username e password.
In this scenario we would also study a good solution to fast-roaming, so I'm studying a solution with WDS, but I can't understand if I need to perform dot1x authentication to use this feature, or if I use it also without an authentication server.
Thanks to all.

The following document should explain WDS in more detail manner,

Yes, I know this document.
But here it's an explanation to authentication, my nedd is to NOT authenticate clients, but pass automatic encryption key.
