Supporting Guest WLAN Users With the Clients > Guest Users Page
AirWave supports guest user provisioning for Aruba Networks, Dell PowerConnect W-Series, Alcatel-Lucent, and
Cisco WLC devices. This allows frontline staff such as receptionists or help desk technicians to grant wireless access
to WLAN visitors or other temporary personnel.
NOTE: The Guest User Preferences section on AMP Setup > Roles, as well as the Clients > Guest Users subtab, will not appear if
Guest User Configuration is globally disabled in AMP Setup > General.
Perform the following steps in the pages described to configure these settings.
1. Navigate to the AMP Setup > Roles page and select the Read-Only Monitoring & Auditing role type. Under
Guest User Preferences, enable Allow creation of Guest Users.
2. Next, navigate to the AMP Setup > Users page and create a new user with the role that was just created. Figure
137 illustrates this page.

3. The newly created login information should be provided to the person or people who will be responsible for
creating guest access users.
4. The next step in creating a guest access user is to navigate to the Users > Guest Clients tab. From this tab, you
can add new guest users, you can edit existing users, and you can repair guest user errors.
This page displays a list of guest users and data, to include the expiration date, the SSID (for Cisco WLC) and
other information. Figure 138 illustrates this page, and Table 116 describes the information.
