Clearpass licensing for guests/employees

    Hi everyone,

    I'm looking into the solutions for implementing Clearpass in our network.
    I'm just a little bit in doubt for what to do with our guests / employees with private devices.

    I read that if you let employees log on to a Guest SSID with Active Directory credentials, it is not counted as a 'guest license'. Guess this counts then as an 'access license'?
    And what if we choose to give guests a separate SSID with Preshared Key, separate it into another VLAN.. does this then counts as a Access license too?
    Looking forward to your replies!
    Thanks.

    There are no guest licenses in CPPM.  All active auth sessions require a CPPM access license.

    Oh yes! Was reading and old licensing document. Thanks for the heads up! The new licensing makes it more clear.
