Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services zl Module
Management Interfaces
4. In the User Group drop-down menu, select the name of a guest group policy.
The group policy determines the days of the week and the times of day at which
the user is allowed to access the network. The group policy can also dictate a
dynamic VLAN assignment. (However, dynamic assignment must be enabled
on the WLAN to which the guest connects for this setting to take effect.)
The WebUser Administrator cannot create groups. Before the WebUser Admin-
istrator creates guest user accounts, someone must log into the Wireless Edge
Services zl Module with SuperUser or Network Administrator rights, and create
at least one guest group.
5. Guest accounts are temporary. Specify the period of validity in the Access Period
section:
a. In the Start Date & Time field, choose when the account becomes active.
Enter the date in this format, in which MM is the number of the month, DD
is the date, and YYYY is the year:
MM/DD/YYYY
After the date, enter a hyphen (-) and the time in this format, in which HH
is the hour in the 24-hour clock and MM is the minutes:
HH:MM
For example, enter:
02/17/2007-08:00
By default, the account’s start date and time is the current time.
b. Specify the date and time at which the account expires (that is, the user can
no longer connect) in one of two ways:
– Enter an exact date and time in the Expiry Date & Time field.
Use the same format as for the Start Date and Time field. Of course, the
expiry time must be later than the start time.
– Specify how long the account remains active from the Access Periods
drop-down menu.
You can choose a length from one to six days. You can also choose one
to three weeks or one to three months.
The Wireless Edge Services zl Module OS automatically sets the expiry
date and time based on start date and time and the specified period of
validity.
The Wireless Edge Services zl Module automatically clears out expired
accounts every 24 hours. In the meantime, however, no one can use the
expired account to connect.
