Cisco Wireless :: WLC 5508 - Guest Internet Access
Oct 28, 2011
I am running a 5508 WLC with 10 Access Point. we need to allow Internet Access to Guest. 10MB DSL Internet is dedicated for Guest. This link is terminated on a regular ADSL modem without being part of our network. We want all Guest Internet traffic to reach the ADSL Router. where should I create the Guest VLAN / where the DHCP for Guest users should be created. what is the best practise for similar setup.
Our Network is simple
ISP_Reuter-------ASA_Firewall--------------4505------------LAN-switch 2950
ADSL_modem------------ users connect via wireless but restricted to certain area only.

Is it possible to provide wireless guest access over the WAN from another office via the WLC. I have WLC 5508 in a central office and have other remote offices that have one Access Point in each office that are autonomous; I will be converting these to LWAPP. Is it possible to route guest traffic back to the WLC then forward this traffic out to the internet? How would I route this traffic out as well? install a secondary WLC in the DMZ and use anchor points. I only have one WLC

I'm looking to implement guest WiFi access with web authentication on one of our 5508 WLC (currently deployed within a sandbox environment), but looking for some assistance. The WLC currently has a single connection from port 1 to the 'Test Site 2' switch. This is a dot1q trunk. On the WLC, the interface (for port 1) is configured as follows: [code] Currently, I have one WLAN configured with the profile name 'Guest Test 1', it's enabled and broadcasting the SSID. Security is L3 only with web authentication configured. The WLAN is configured to use the interface names "guest_wifi".
The issue is that when a client connects to the WLAN, it receives an IP address okay (10.99.254.x address), but doesn't seem to be able to contact the WLC to get the web authentication page. Eventually, the WLC terminates the connection due to an authentication failure.does it sound like I'm taking the correct approach here? The idea is that clients connect to the guest WLAN, which puts them on VLAN 99 and routes traffic through to the ASA and then onto the internet.

I just got a new requirement for our wireless roll out and I need some help. Plan the best way to provide employee and guests wireless access w/ the guests separate from the production environment.
We have a 5508 controller w/ 1142 APs. I have two GBICs in the interfaces (only one is being used). I want to use a back haul connection for the guest access. I am having a hard time in visioning how to physically set up the cabling from the patch panel. Again, the requirement is to not allow guest users to connect to our production network but I still want/need to manage the AP. This will eventually need to be supported for remote sites tunneling back to the primary location.

In my Wireless network, I have two appliances WLC 5508 running version 7.0.116.0.I have a WCS running version 7.0.172.0, deployed on a windows 2003 server.I've imported the two WLCs in my WCS in order to centralize the monitoring and the configuration tasks.Now I'm facing an issue when I want to create a guest user from the WCS, rather than creating this user access on each WLC. The creation of the user account is working good, the replication is done on the both WLCs, but on one of my WLC the guest user account is deleted after one hour(around).On the second WLC, the same user account remains during all its life time.In attachment a screen shot of the advanced parameter of the guest user.You can see that the user was created on the both WLC but is only active on one ... and unfortunately the wrong because the AP is associated with the other WLC.

We currently tunnel guests to a 4402 that sits behind our firewall and it's been working well for a few years but I am aware that the 4402 is now EoL so I am exploring alternatives:
We also have several 5508s deployed and I'm wondering if - in any new guest access config - I can allocate one of its free h/w ports to connect to the firewall, even though the 5508 is configured to use LAG.
To put it another way can I configure a new port to a seperate VLAN and not be part of the the LAG'd ports or are you tied to having all ports acting as a group if LAG is switched on?

I have a requirement to set up a guest SSID for contractor so that they can use the internet while in the office.
Security say that all traffic on this SSID should be isolated and directed straight to the firewall, with no chance of contamination into the company network infrastructure.
With the 5508, my understanding is using the setting up a guest account functionality built in will achieve this, but all traffic would end up at the wireless controller. How do I then put a direct forward for all traffic to the firewall which will only affect the guest traffic?

Is it possible to allow certain websites to bypass the web authentication pages, so that they do not need to authenticate to get to our own website, but do have to if they wish to go anywhere else?Looking at a 5508 model at the moment

I have two SSIDs on an Autonomous Access Point, that goes to a 2960 switch, that connects to a L3 3560. I have a vlan for admin/private internal access that uses the native vlan (1) and guest vlan (50). I have configured both and I am trying to get both to go out the same Internet connection.
I cannot get the guest access to access the Internet. It looks like my computer will go, but it just comes up saying no Internet access.All interfaces are trunking this vlan properly. I can communicate from the laptop to the 3560 but I just can't get to the Internet.

We have the RV180W router and the WAP321 access point in our business. We want to broadcast two SSIDs from both locations: the office SSID, which shares routing to LAN traffic, and a guest SSID.The office computers are attached via ethernet to a switch off of LAN port 1 on the router. The AP is attached to LAN port 2 on the router.On the router, the office SSID and the LAN are members of VLAN 1. The guest network is a member of VLAN 2. From the router, everything works just fine.On the WAP, the staff SSID works fine, but the guest SSID has no internet. Both the office and guest networks get DHCP successfully from the router.Our VLAN membership table in the router and WAP are attached, as well as other configuration details.Why would we not be getting internet on the guest ID only on the WAP?

Any issue creating a guest vlan to use the WIFI on an 891W router? The IOS is version 15.1. I have created discreet Vlan's and setup subinterfaces on both the WLAN_AP0 and GigaEthernet 0 interfaces with dot1q encapsulation. The client will receive an IP from the pool but cannot ping or connect beyond the default gateway.
The external interface is using Nat overload and all wired clients are successful in connecting to outside addresses. I have insert a permit any statement in the acl which affects the external port but still no success.

I need to configure a network in 1 small office space that segregates 2 company domains but allows them to share an Internet connection, a WAP, a couple of printers, and a non-Cisco VoIP phone system. And, it needs to provide guest access to the internet and printers via wireless. I have a SG300-28P, an SA520W, and a WAP2000 to make it all happen. [code]

I want to set up internet guest access with my wap321. No matter what I do the guest can see my whole network. Not sure what your definition of guest access is but letting them brows around my assets is not mine. I have a cheap Linksys router at home and that guest access works the way I want this AP to do.No wizards for guest access... In fact there is only one wizard by the way, i.e. basic set up.
My network includes the wap321, sg200-26p switch and the rv042g router

I have setup an aironet 1262 with my ASA 5512 and configured it as an access point. I would like to add an additonal network to the ap for guests to use but I would like to segregate the traffic and only allow it to the internet. I am not sure how to start this and go about setting the routes, security and address scope.

We have the E3000 Router and the guest internet access DOES NOT work. We occasionally repair other people's PC's and I seriously do not want to allow access to our home network. Recently, we are trying to access through guest, on a Win 7 Dell Notebook. It takes the passcode but no internet connection.

I want to prevent guest from doing peer - peer communication on my Guest (5508) controllers. Is this a feature on the WLC or only by applying an ACL on the router interface?

, I have a requirement by a customer that they will want to monitor the guest wireless access. Currently, we are proposing a Cisco Wireless Controller 5508 together with APs and the setup would be a dedicated VLAN for guest. I am wondering if Cisco ISE together with Cisco MSE would be sufficient?
Stuff to monitor and log are:
1. Guest username (I guess this would be self sponsored)
2. Company name
3. Websites accessed
4. Time, date and duration.
5. Logs are to be kept for 3 months at least.

We have Cisco WLC 5508 in our network and right now ,this WLC is connected to two ports of each core switches.Both CORP and GUEST SSID are configured on this WLC. Now we want to segregate the traffic log GUEST to on core switches from WLC. SO my question is ,how can we achieve this without using guest anchor controller ? Can i use one interface Cisco WLC 5508 and connect it to the firewall or any device ?

i see there is an option to "allow password change" or "force password change" for guest roles in the NGS. But when i created a guest account using this guest role, after webauthentication , there is no prompt to change password. Is this the intended behaviour or is there anything else that i need to configure. Looking at it, i am not sure how the NGS would allow a "guest user" to really overwrite the password by allowing password change. ? is that not a security risk as well for the NGS ? my setup has 5508 anchor controller and NGS communicating via RADIUS.

We currently have ACS 5.4 and Cisco WLC 5508's deployed. We have wireless lobby admin accounts that can login and successfully create and modify guest wireless accounts. What we are trying to do, however, is give the lobby admins the ability to create wireless accounts with lifetimes longer than 30 days. Currently our setup will only allow the creation of permanent accounts (by entering all 0's in the lifetime fields) or accounts that last up to thirty days.

I've got a WLC5508 (7.0.116.0) that is managed by WCS (7.0.172.0). I set up another WLC5508 with the same code and managed by the same WCS. Now I'd like to export all the 800 guest user accounts with the passwords from the old WLC and import them into the new WLC.

I know that the recommendation from Cisco for the mobility anchor feature to work well is to use the same IOS version on the anchor WLC and local WLC controller. Now I´ll install on a new site a 5508 local WLC with a newer IOS version which is installed on the other controllers ( Guest and local ). Later I´ve planned to update also the other controllers to the same IOS version. Now my question is, must I upgrade all other controller at the same time ?

Have a WLC 5508 running 6.x code with LAP's providing wireless for our internal laptops (WPA2 and EAP-TLS). I want to provide guest wireless which goes out a different port on the WLC to a guest firewall/cable modem. However, we want to prevent our internal laptops from being able to use the guest wireless. I have RADIUS (IAS) and LDAP for my AD available. We would prefer not to have use Lobby Ambassador and just have the guests use a simple password or web passthru. Guests may be laptops or smartphones. What options are available? I have tried a test setup using dynamic vlan assignments from RADIUS using the IETF flags, but can't seem to get it to work. Is there a way to identify the SSID is being used at the RADIUS server?

Here is my setup:
Netgear WNDR3700 - Main router, DHCP turned on
4x Netgear WNR2000 - Setup as Access Points (DHCP turned off), connected to main router via LAN ports
I only want the guest network to have internet access. I have the guest network enabled on the router and access points with the option to "Allow Guest network to access main network" disabled. My problem is that since the access points aren't hooked directly to my modem via the WAN port, the guest network broadcasted from the access points does not have internet access.I have read up on setting up a separate subnet for the guest network using DD-WRT but was curious if there was a way to get the desired result with the stock Netgear firmware.

We currently have all of our foreign AP controllers on software version 7.0.116. This consists of a mixture of 4400 and 5508 WLC's. Our guest anchor is a 4402 on version 7.0.116. We are replacing the guest anchor with a 5508. We are also upgrading our 5508 wireless controllers to version 7.2 to support the 3600 series AP's. My question is what is the recommeded code that the anchor controller should be on? Should it also be upgraded to 7.2? If we upgrade the anchor controller to version 7.2, will this affect anchoring to 4400 series foreign controllers still on7.0.116?

I've been asked to create 2 wireless networks for guest access. They are to be used by clients of 2 different companies and they have asked for the website of each company to automatically open as a landing page. e.g.
-WLAN1 - password is companyname1 - landing page = www.companyname1.com
-WLAN2 - password is companyname2 - landing page = www.companyname2.com
Is this possible with our 5508 WLC? I have googled it and can see that you can set a web auth page but I need different landing pages depending on which WLAN is connected to.

i have two 5508 ver 7.3.0, one is the primary and one is the guest controller. mobility is up and running. i have an exising guest ssid working with wpa2-psk and web authentication and its working fine but i require a second guest ssid that only uses a wpa2-psk for ipod/ipads as i cant use passive client on primary controller. i presently have the one vlan range and dhcp setup on the guest controller to give addressing to either ssid. i know you can have multiple ssid setup on the guest controller but in other sites i have only had one guest connection comming from the primary controller, just a primary controller on each sites was only creating one link to the same guest controler.

which is the maximum number of simultaneous wired guest clients on a 5508? And in a 2112 controller?
Wired clients count as wireless clients??
What about anchoring limitations, what is the effect of wired guest clients on the anchor controller?

We're looking at deploying both office extend and also a guest wlan. Both would require a WLC in the DMZ.My question is can one 5508 WLC be both a guest anchor and have office extend APs on it at the same time?
