Single ssid with multiple psk passwords

    Posted Sep 01, 2015 12:11 PM

    Is it possible to create multiple psk aes key/passphrases for 1 ssid? I currently have a secured wifi network that uses mac/password authentication only IT has the passphrase for and now I might have to give it out - would really rather not do that and would like to set up a new passphrase for just this one office.

     

    Any thoughts?

     

    Thanks!

    OK - I was afraid of that but just had to ask.

     

    Thank you

    Why not just do two SSIDs? One for your IT approved devices and the other with a PSK that you can give out?

    Hi,

    Do you want to use different PSK for authentication at any one specific location (AP) ? if so you can use AP specific config option.

     

    Let me know if you need some help on this.

    Sounds interesting - but I can see that might be problematic down the road - Guess I'll just have to give them the password dang it.

     

    Thanks!

    It's a possibity - and then assign it to just them - we'll see what is gong to be best.
