How can I filter smart phones from connecting to my WLAN?

  • 1.  How can I filter smart phones from connecting to my WLAN?

    Posted Sep 20, 2013 01:56 PM

    I have 12 schools in all in my school district.  In each school, I have a cluster of 30- 50 IAP-105 with the WLAN doing WPA-Personal security.  Things are working good, except I'm seeing alot of smart phones connecting and I want to be able to control this or block this?  Can anyone please tell me how I can do this with just the IAP cluster?  Are there any filters that I can create?

     

    Thanks, Maverick

    You can move all the smartphones based on fingerprinting and then move those to a role that denies everything , i have attached a user guide.

     

    This is currently supported in IAP OS 6.2.1.0-3.4.0.x

    Is there a way to do this and limit them by radio? 

     

    Like if i want all mobile clients to connect only on 2.4ghz, and laptops to connect only on 5ghz, is that possible?

    There is not a way i can think of that you could steer mobile clients to one band with an IAP cluster. You might be able to with CPPM but I would have to dig around on that one but your first post clearly states with a IAP cluster only.
