Can an Aeronet 1300 running standalone support a public and private connection?

[Gary Adamson]

I have a customer that is asking if their standalone Aeronet 1300 can support both a guest network that restricts the users from accessing the internal LAN and a private SSID that allows access to the Internet  and internal LAN. 

I have been looking through lots of documentation on the Internet but have not found a direct answer.  They have a very limited budget and are looking for the most cost effective way to address this issue.

Thanks

AP is a L2 device, so by having an AP itself you can't achieve this. You need to have a L3 device where you can define two SVI (for guest & internal users) & restrict the traffic where they allow to go. Also that device can do NAT if that is connected to internet.

Then simply you can pass these two vlans to the AP & map it to two different SSID defined on the AP.
