Multiple SSID on AP managed by 9800CL

I want to configure a C9800CL controller (or any 9800, for that matter) so that the APs each run with 2-3 SSIDs. I can create setups that work with a single SSID/WLAN per AP, but I can't see how to set up more than 1 SSID per AP.

Any Suggestions?

Create 2 policy tags and assign SSIDs that you want. after this assign policy tag A to AP A and policy tag B to AP B.

wireless tag policy PolicyTag_A
wlan WLAN_SSID_A policy PolicyProfile_A


wireless tag policy PolicyTag_B
wlan WLAN_SSID_B policy PolicyProfile_B


ap XXX_A
policy-tag PolicyTag_A


ap XXX_B
policy-tag PolicyTag_B

Hi MHM,

I've been into the document you suggest but I cant find where it tells me how to get more than 1 SSID on each AP. Apologies, but could you provide detail (either of the relevant part of the document or in words simple enough even for me to grasp....the old 5500 series was easy compared to this!)

Thanks

friend follow steps in this guide for these new two wlan (ssid) and in step of AP profile add these wlan to AP

RoadRunner4K, thanks for the quick response, but I want 2 (or more) SSIDs from 1 AP. I think what you suggest will mean AP-A delivers SSID-A and AP-B delivers SSID-B, which where I am now. I want to be able to have AP-A radiate SSIS A, SSID-B, etc

 

Then you just add more WLAN + Policy profile to that TAG.

Thanks Guys, I got it working in the Lab....It was just me being dense, so I gave as many thumbs-up as I could to all responses and accepted the response that got me working as the solution. Another problem "between chair and screen" I fear....Thanks for your patience
