Using multiple SSID with AP 1100 (standalone mode).

[ROBERTO TACCON]

Hi, need to configure 2 SSID on the same 1100 AP: open authentication and WPA2. It's possible to configure these 2 SSID without configuring VLAN's ?

On CCO I've read the following:

http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_qanda_item09186a008009483e.shtml

Q. How many service set identifiers (SSIDs) can you have per VLAN?

A. You can have only one SSID per VLAN. The use of multiple SSIDs over a single VLAN is not supported with Aironet APs.

It's also true with the latest IOS release ?

Hi Roberto,

Hopefully the attached docs will answer your question:

Cisco Aironet 1100 Series

Using VLANs with Cisco Aironet Wireless Equipment

Deprecated versions of Cisco Aironet software permit binding multiple SSIDs to one VLAN. Current versions do not.

Cisco IOS Software Configuration Guide for Cisco Aironet Access Points, 12.2(15)JA

Configuring Multiple SSIDs

vlan vlan-id

(Optional) Assign the SSID to a VLAN on your network. Client devices that associate using the SSID are grouped into this VLAN. You can assign only one SSID to a VLAN.

Hope this helps!
