Chapter 14: Setting up Guest Access
Understanding The Guest Interface
Out-of-the-box Guest Interface features allow you to configure the 9160 G2 Wire-
less Gateway for controlled guest access to an isolated network. You can configure 
the same access point to broadcast and function as two different wireless networks: 
a secure “Internal” LAN and a public “Guest” network. Guest clients can access the 
guest network without a username or password. When guests log in, they see a guest 
Welcome screen (also known as a “captive portal”).
14.1  Understanding The Guest Interface
You can define unique parameters for guest connectivity and isolate guest clients 
from other more sensitive areas of the network. 
Important:
No security is provided on the guest network; 
only plain-text security mode is allowed.
Simultaneously, you can configure a secure internal network (using the same access 
point as your guest interface) that provides full access to protected information 
behind a firewall and requires secure login or certificates for access.
You can configure an 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway for the Guest interface by using a 
single network with VLANs by setting up the guest interface configuration options 
on the Administration Web pages for the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway. (For details on 
how to set up this type of guest interface, see “Configuring A Guest Network On A 
Virtual LAN” on page 150.
Notes: This method leverages multiplBSSID and Virtual LAN (VLAN) technol-
ogies that are built-in to the 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway. The Internal and 
Guest networks are implemented as multiple BSSIDs on the same access 
point, each with different network names (SSID
s) on the Wireless inter-
face and different VLAN IDs on the Wired interface.
On a two-radio access point, the Guest Management and Login settings 
apply to both Radio One and Radio Two.
