    Hi,

     

    I have set up a Time Based Services for our Meeting session in the office. It seems to work when I connected them to the Wifi but they were not disconnected after the meeting.

     

    I set up 10 to 11pm Ph time Tuesday, also connecting to the asia ntp server and using Singapore Time Zone. It's already 11:20 but still, they are connected.

     

    Is this normal? or is there something wrong with the configuration? 

     

    Help me figure this out please. Thanks!

    Could you please share the configuration that you have done for time based service?

    The first pic is the first configuration of the Time Based Services for meetings.

     

    The second pic is the ntp server and timezone that I used, we are in the Philippines but we follow pacific time.

    Have you mapped the time range profile to the SSID?

     

    WLAN SSID >> Edit >> show advanced options >> Time range profiles >> Meeting >> Enabled.

    Yes I enabled it in the SSID that we used.

     

    But I think it doesn't work.

    I just tested time based service on IAP (running 6.5.4.8) and it worked as expected. The SSID is down once the end time is reached.

     

    Followign is configuration and test result.

    Do validate the configuration and see if you have missed anything. Work with TAC, if your configuration is good and issue exists.

    It worked when I specified the time when it will be disabled and will be enabled. 

     

    Just for me to know also, where and how can I find the NTP server link or address? I just got some in google. Is it valid?

     

    Thanks!

    I would recommend using an internal NTP server. I just used my Windows 12k server as NTP server.

     

    If you are okay with public NTP server, then "pool.ntp.org" will work.
