2. Create a WLAN group (for example, “Guest Only Group”), and then assign “Guest Only
Service” (WLAN service) to “Guest Only Group” (WLAN group).
3. Assign APs on the 1st Floor (where visitors need wireless access) to your “Guest Only Group”.
Any wireless client that associates with APs assigned to the “Guest Only Group” will get the
guest-level access privileges defined in your “Guest Only Service.” APs on the 2nd and 3rd floors
can remain assigned to the default WLAN Group and provide normal-level access.
Notes About WLAN Groups
Before you start using WLAN groups to provision WLAN settings to APs or AP groups, take
note of the following important notes:
• Creating WLAN groups is optional. If you do not need to provide different WLAN services to
different areas in your environment, you do not need to create a WLAN group.
• A default WLAN group called “default” exists. The first 27 WLANs that you create are
automatically assigned to this default WLAN group.
• A WLAN group can include a maximum of 27 member WLANs. For dual radio APs, each
radio can be assigned to only one WLAN group (single radio APs can be assigned to only
one WLAN group).
Creating a WLAN Group
.Creating WLAN groups is optional. If you do not need to provide different WLAN services to
different areas in your environment, you do not need to create a WLAN group.
Follow these steps to create a WLAN group.
1. Go to Configuration>AP Zones.
2. Click the AP zone for which you want to create a device access policy.
3. In the AP Zones submenu, click WLAN.
The WLAN Services & Groups page appears.
4. Look for the WLAN Group Configuration section.
5. Click Create New.
6. In Group Name, type a descriptive name that you want to assign to this WLAN group.
For example, if this WLAN will contain WLANs that are designated for guest users, you can
name this as Guest WLAN Group.
7. In Description (optional), type some notes or comments about this group.
8. Under WLAN List, select the check boxes for the WLANs that you want to be part of this
WLAN group. The VLAN Override and NAS-ID columns for the selected WLANs become
active.
9. In the VLAN override settings, choose whether to override the VLAN configured for each
member WLAN. Available options include:
• No Change: Click this option if you want the WLAN to keep the same VLAN tag (default:
1).
• Tag: Click this option to override the VLAN configured for the WLAN service.
