Your VoIP wireless network is now ready to use. Any traffic using the VoIP_SSID profile will be given the highest priority across the wireless network.

6.2.3 Configure the Guest Network

When you are setting up the wireless network for guests to your office, your primary concern is to keep your network secure while allowing access to certain resources (such as a network printer, or the Internet). For this reason, the pre- configured Guest_SSID profile has layer-2 isolation and intra-BSS traffic blocking enabled by default. “Layer-2 isolation” means that a client accessing the network via the Guest_SSID profile can access only certain pre-defined devices on the network (see Section on page 166), and “intra-BSS traffic blocking” means that the client cannot access other clients on the same wireless network (see Section 8.4 on page 123).
