    You can have all users connect to the same SSID. You will want to control VLAN/VLANs via User-Roles. You can assign what network the user should be on based on the role that you assign them to. These roles can be returned by your RADIUS server, or by Role Derivation Rules.

    If you are using PSK as the authentication method, your only viable option would be to configure MPSK. You would need to set up an external RADIUS server to get MPSK working. You can not use the internal server for authentication. You can then return roles that you assign VLANs to.

    and if can create many different ap-group 
    like that
    ap-group "x40"
    virtual-ap "Guest-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-STUFF-40-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-Guest-vap_prof"
    !
    ap-group "X50"
    virtual-ap "Guest-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-STUFF-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-Guest-vap_prof"
    !
    ap-group "xS60"
    virtual-ap "Guest-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-STUFF-60-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-Guest-vap_prof"
    ap-system-profile "apsys_prof-cvi57"
    !
    ap-group "x70"
    virtual-ap "Guest-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-vap_prof"
    virtual-ap "x-Guest-vap_prof"
    !


    wlan virtual-ap "x-STUFF-40-vap_prof"
    aaa-profile "x-STUFF-40-aaa_prof"
    ssid-profile "x-STUFF-40-ssid_prof"
    vlan 40
    !
    wlan virtual-ap "x-STUFF-60-vap_prof"
    aaa-profile "x-STUFF-60-aaa_prof"
    ssid-profile "x-SUFF70-ssid_prof"
    vlan 60
    !
    wlan virtual-ap "x--STUFF-vap_prof"
    aaa-profile "x-STUFF-aaa_prof"
    ssid-profile "x-STUFF-ssid_prof"
    vlan 50
    !
    wlan virtual-ap "x-SUFF70-vap_prof"
    aaa-profile "x-SUFF70-aaa_prof"
    ssid-profile "x-SUFF70-ssid_prof"
    vlan 70

    You could clone the virtual AP and change the VLAN:

    config t
    wlan virtual-ap "guest-vap-prof-x40"
    clone Guest-vap_prof
    vlan 40

    This will clone the guest virtual AP, name it guest-vap-prof-x40, and make it use vlan 40.  You can then add that vap "guest-vap-prof-x40" to the x40 ap-group.

    I hope that makes sense.

    so you can explain more 
    how can configure if have 4 different vlan and one ssid 

    wlan virtual-ap "guest-vap-prof-x40"

    clone Guest-vap_prof
    vlan 40

    wlan virtual-ap "guest -vap_prox60"
    clone Guest-vap_prof
    vlan 60

    The user VLAN is assigned by the Virtual AP VLAN.  An AP gets its configuration from the AP group that it is in.  An AP can be on the other side of the country, but it will tunnel all user traffic to the MC and put the user on whatever VLAN is defined in the Virtual AP of the AP group that the AP is in.

    I hope this makes sense.

    let me clarify what i do  
    i have a  standalone controller 
    3 ssid (psk +guest +guest with external server)
     and i have many building so i have many and different vlan for users
    i want to create same ssid on all access point on all building 
    but how can user authenticate 
    i know when create ssid assign ssid in ap-group and one vlan 
    but in this case i have many different vlan 
    so how do that

    The smallest unit of a wireless network is the Virtual AP. On the commandline, you should clone the Virtual-AP and in the cloned Virtual AP, set it to the new VLAN. Then you can add that Virtual AP to the ap-group where you want that new vlan. First you should create new ap-groups for those locations, then add the cloned Virtual APs to those new ap-groups.

    example:

    config t

    wlan virtual ap <new virtual ap name>

    Clone <existing virtual ap name>

    VLAN <new vlan number>

    write mem

    After that you can add the new virtual AP name to whatever ap-group you want. You cannot add that virtual AP to an ap-group that is broadcasting the same SSID, however...

    For example

    config t

    wlan virtual-ap campusguest-vlan20

    clone campusguest

    vlan 20

    write mem

    ap-group <new ap group>

    wlan virtual-ap campusguest-vlan20

    You can do this as many times as you see fit.
