    Yes, that should be BSSID of the AP and not the user.

    For you case, you may need to  choose "contains" to put in the mac adress of the AP`s BSSID to take care.

     

    Here are the list of condition we have..

     

    The purpose of having this option is to optimize and for flexibility. Say for example " you have the specific list of device  "oui" wants them on specfic role; you  may needs to choose the conditions "starts with"  where all the devices ,matching  or starting with that specific OUI will be placed on the role appropriately. Similarly  if you want the exact match of mac address you may need to go for "equals". These options basilly gives us more customization to define the rules.

     


    (Aruba) (user-rule) #set role condition bssid ?


    contains  Check if attribute -contains- the operand value
    ends-with  Check if attribute -ends-with- the operand value
    equals     Check if attribute -equals- the operand value
    not-equals  Check if attribute -not-equals- the operand value
    starts-with  Check if attribute -starts-with- the operand value

     

     

    Thanks!

    One thing i want to understand, after selecting the "role"  then "BSSID"  then "condition" then  in the " value" portion whether we have to enter the MAC-address of the AP or something else...

     

    Too much confuse... kindly help me in this regard.
