secure and guest wlans on same ap ?

[aoshea]

Dear Netprof,

Have a query on the installation of a new wireless pilot, I have currently specified several cisco 1230 AP's and a single acs to handle secure wlan access. However I now need to cater for visitors, that we ideally need to keep on their own 'unsecure' wlan (as the card they use may not support leap). Is it possible to configure this on a single ap (3 or these for the pilot) or do I need an exclusive ap configured separately with its own ssid and wlan / vlan.

Thanks in advance.

Adrian.

Hi Aoshea,

Undet Security/SSID Manager you can define two SSiD's and then at the bottom of the same page you select what SSID is used for guests. Authentication type will apply according to each SSID settings.

I hope this helps,

You can create VLANs on any AP, one for guests (no authentication, broadcast SSID) and one (or more) for employees (LEAP/PEAP authentication, no broadcast SSID). And, as ME said, authentication type vwiil apply according to each SSID settings.

Good Luck,
