4.2.4 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 intra-BSS traffic blocking enabled by default. “Intra-BSS traffic blocking” means that the client cannot access other clients on the same wireless network.

1Click Wireless > SSID. Select Guest_SSID and click Edit.

2Select SecProfile3 in the Security field. Do not select the Hidden SSID check-box so the guests can easily find the wireless network.

3Select WMM-best effort in the QoS field to give the guest a lower QoS priority.

4Select the check-box of Enable Intra-BSS Traffic blocking. Click Save.
