[Janardhan Meesala]

Hi Team,

Just i want to know below configuration are possible with WLC 5508.

Can we define specific timing to keep an account enabled. For e.g. 9:00AM to 9:00 PM from <x> date to <y> date?

-          Can we authenticate the “lobby admin” user through TACACS?

-          Can we enforce password change for guest user when he login for the first time?

Regards,

Jana

-          Can we authenticate the “lobby admin” user through TACACS?

You can do that in TACACS with Cisco ACS, it has date/time options.

-          Can we enforce password change for guest user when he login for the first time?

It depends on where you create guest user account. If you use ISE guest portal, yes, all possible. WLC is not designed to do this tricks.

Can we authenticate the “lobby admin” user through TACACS?
