    Do you have ClearPass?
    What authentication method is in use?

    It would be easier to enable authenticaton via 802.1x.  An Open SSID does not leave you many security options that cannot be circumvented.

    Is device descrimination  possible with a controller based SSID?

     

    I know ClearPass can but hoping to achieve this without migrating the SSID to ClearPass.
