Wireless Access Point
290 Configuring the Wireless AP
When users connect to the SSID that runs the EasyPass Personal portal,
they are redirected to a login page hosted in the cloud by XMS. After
successful authentication, a user is redirected to a Personal Wi-Fi setup
page to specify necessary parameters for this feature: a personal SSID
name, preshared key (PSK) and expiration date. This personal SSID is
configured on APs by XMS-Cloud. Users will typically set up the same
SSID name and PSK that they use at home, which their smartphones,
tablets, and other personal devices are already configured to connect with
automatically. For example, if a hotel offers Xirrus Personal Wi-Fi, guests
will be able to set up SSIDs that mimic their home networks. Their
devices will automatically connect securely for the duration of the guest’s
stay (until the personal SSID expires). See “Personal Wi-Fi” on page 301
for more details.
The personal SSID is created with the default values shown below.
Encryption / Authentication: 8WPA2-PSK/02.1x Broadcast: on
Band: both VLAN Name/Pool: none
QoS: 2 Filter list: none
Roaming: L2 WPR: off
Fallback: off Mobile Device Mgmt: none
ACL Mode: off
SSID Active: yes SSID expiration: per user setting in XMS-C
DHCP Pool: uses SSID’s name, see below DHCP Opt: off
A DHCP pool is created for each personal SSID using the SSID Name. NAT is enabled, and the IP
subnet is 192.168.1.0/24.
In IAP—Global Settings, Block Inter-Station Traffic is set to No.
