Guests User Profile
1.Click HiveAP Configuration > QoS Policies > User Profiles > Emp > (Clone button).
The Clone User Profile dialog box appears.
2.In the Profile Name field, type Guests, and then click OK.
The Guests User Profile dialog box appears with the same values you entered for the IT profile, except that the
user profile ID has already been changed to 5.
3.In the Generaltab, enter the following:
• User Profile Name: Guests (read only)
• User Profile ID: 5
Each user profile must have a unique ID number. Because the ID number for the def-user, VoIP, IT, and Emp
user profiles are 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively, enter "5" here. This number can be any unique number from 5
to 15.
• Comment: QoS for guests
4.Click the QoS tab, make the following change while keeping all the other cloned settings, and then click OK:
• Entire User Profile Rate Limit: 2000 Kbps
This is a limited amount of bandwidth that all users belonging to this profile can use. This setting provides
guests with a basic amount of available traffic.
• Entire User Profile Weight: 5
Because wireless access for guests is mainly a convenience and not a necessity, you assign it the lowest
weight to give it the lowest priority.
• Per User Rate Limit: 2000 Kbps
This is the maximum amount of bandwidth that a single user belonging to this profile can use. It is the same
as the user profile rate limit so that even if only one guest connects to the network, he or she can use all
the available guest bandwidth if needed.
• Per User Queue Management: Enter the following items in bold. Leave all other cloned settings unchanged.
