4.1 Sample Network Setup

This tutorial shows you how to use CAPWAP to have one NWA3000-N series AP control other NWA3000-N series APs to create a wireless network that allows two types of connections: staff and guest. Staff connections have full access to the network, while guests are limited to Internet access (DNS, HTTP and HTTPS services).

Requirements: A DHCP server (A) with Option 138, an AD server, a switch (B) that supports 802.1q, a Layer-3 routing device and a firewall (C).

Note: In this topology the firewall, such as a ZyWALL, controls what services traffic from different VLANs can use.
