96 | Wireless Network Profiles Dell Networking W-Series Instant 6.5.1.0-4.3.1.0 | User Guide
To configure machine and user authentication roles:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# set-role-machine-auth <machine_only> <user_only>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
To configure unrestricted access:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile <name>
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# set-role-unrestricted
(Instant AP)(SSID Profile <name>)# end
(Instant AP)# commit apply
Example
The following example configures access rules for the wireless network:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan access-rule WirelessRule
(Instant AP)(Access Rule "WirelessRule")# rule 192.0.2.2 255.255.255.0 match 6 4343 4343 log

Configuring Per-AP SSID and Per-AP-VLAN Settings on a Wireless Profile
Starting from Instant 6.4.4.4-4.2.3.0, you can set the environment variables, per_ap_ssid and per_ap_vlan on
a wlan ssid-profile by using the CLI. The ssid-profile-essid and ssid-profile vlan parameters must be
enhanced to accept the ssid and vlan variables, respectively.
You can configure the per-ap-ssid and the per-ap-vlan settings for the SSID and VLAN profiles, respectively,
by using the Instant CLI.
In the CLI
To configure the wlan ssid-profile:
(Instant AP)(config)# wlan ssid-profile <ssid_profile>
To configure the per-ap-ssid variable:
(Instant AP)# per-ap-ssid <text>
To configure the per-ap-vlan variable:
(Instant AP)# per-ap-vlan <vlan>
To verify the per-ap-ssid and per-ap-vlan configurations:
(Instant AP)# show ap-env
Antenna Type:Internal
name:TechPubsAP
per_ap_ssid:PCCW
per_ap_vlan:vlan
lacp_mode:enable
