restrict access between ap groups

  • 1.  restrict access between ap groups

    Posted Oct 30, 2014 05:58 PM

    I have about 30 ap gropus.  I have no rules about access between the groups.  I have a situation that I need to make sure that any users in one particular ap group are isolated from the rest of the users in all the other groups. 

     

    I am more interested in where to go to learn how to do this but if it is simple then show me the way.

     

    thanks in advance for any help.

    Is each group tied to a different vlan?

    This ap group is in a building far enough a way that it is not seen wirelessly by any other buildings.  I configured a seperate SSID and deployed it to the ap group.  I was wondering if there was something in the controller that would be able to keep the activity on the new SSID seperate from the other ap-groups with different SSIDs. 

     

    I hope that was clear.

    When you say "keep it separate" do you mean they would not be able to contact other users?  If you need true separation, you would need a separate VLAN.

    Thanks for the input.  In the end I followed cjoseph's advice and created a seperate VLAN. It is working as expected.
