14.2 Configuring The Guest Interface
To configure the Guest interface on the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway, perform these
steps:
1. Configure the access point to represent two virtually separate networks
as described in the section below, “Configuring A Guest Network On A
Virtual LAN”.
2. Set up the guest Welc ome screen for the guest captive portal as
described in the section, “Configuring The Welcome Screen (Captive
Portal)” on page152.
Note: Guest Interface settings are not shared among access points across the
cluster. These settings must be configured individually on the Administra-
tion pages for each access point. To get to the Administration pages for an
access point that is a member of the current cluster, click on its IP Address
link on the Cluster, Access Points page of the current AP. For more infor-
mation about which settings are shared by the cluster and which ar e not,
see “Which Settings Are Shared As Part Of The Cluster Configurati on An d

Guest Welcome Screen settings ar e shared among access points across the
cluster. When you update these settings for one access poi nt, t he configura-

information about which settings are shared by the cluster and which are
not, see “Which Settings Are Shared As Part Of The Cluster Configuration
And Which Are Not?” on page57.
