    Hi macgyver7059,

    If your IAPs are in the same network segment you can't have two VC. The only thing you can do to have 2 separate VC is to deploy the IAPs on different VLAN. In this way the IAPs will not see each other.

    On IAP-01, make sure there is not an entry in there for 02 in the allowed-ap list.  Check again you have auto-join disabled.

     

    On IAP-02, clear the configuration and then log in and reconfigure with different VC address.

     

    That should work, but as m.gallina said, it is better to have them on different subnets.

    You can convert them to standalone mode as well :)

    What is the use case for this?  If you want the concept of "AP Groups", we will be able to help soon

    Hi SethFiemonti:

     

    Beacuse my customer will 4 floor IAP & 1 floor IAP connect the same L2 switch device, but hope IAP can be different user control and 1 floor user can't see 4 floor broadcast SSID and switch can't use vlan.

    In current IAP SW you cannot do this.     The only workaround is to make the 1 IAP a "Standalone" IAP.   As a Standalone it will not attempt to join another cluster and you can manage it separately.  Note, no other IAPs will be able to join the Standalone IAP either.

     

    As Seth mentioned we do have a feature coming in the next Major release that will allow you to do what you need but that is 4 - 8 weeks out roughly.
