    Is this AP tied to an Aruba controller as a campus AP or is it in Instant mode ?

    Hi Victor,

     

    We doesnt have controller, there are 4 standalone devices connected to single network and those 4 devices have static ip addresses.

    What type of authentication you are planning to use for those SSIDs?

    Are you going to assign a different VLAN to each SSID ?

    Hi Victor,

    We are planning to use WPA-2 Personal for authentication and all SSID's are
    in single VLAN. Please suggest which will be perfect as i'm beginner to this
    device.





    Thanks & Regards,

    You can follow the instructions on this video but instead of using WPA2 Enterprise you are going to select WPA2 Personal.(Start watching in 3:09)

    Use Network Assigned for the VLAN option or do static to specify the VLAN.

     

    You can repeat the same process for all the SSIDs you want to create.

    Keep in mind that the the more SSIDs you have broadcasting on your wireless network this will impact the health of your RF environment.

     

    Is there any particular reason why you want to create different SSIDs ?

    Are you planning to have different type access based on the SSID ?

    Hi Victor,

     

    We have 4 floors and each standalone device needs to be configured in each floor in different SSIDs and we need these SSIDs under single network. This is our requirement.

    Do you need each device to broadcast all the SSIDs or just one ?

    If you are not expecting users go roam between floors then you could create Zones:

    Hi Victor,

     

    Users definitely roam between floors.
