2.Click Configuration > User Profiles > (check box) Emp > Clone > General, enter the following, and then click
Save:
• User Profile Name: Guests
• Attribute: 5
Each user profile in the same WLAN must have a unique attribute number. Because the attributes for the
def-user, VoIP, IT, and Emp profiles are 1, 2, 3, and 4 respectively, enter "5" here. This number can be any
unique number from 5 to 63.
• Attribute Group: Leave this field empty.
• QoS Setting: QoS-Guests
• Default VLAN: VLAN-3-Guests (previously defined; see "Defining VLANs" on page100)
HiveAPs assign users matching the VoIP user profile to VLAN 2. This separates all employee voice traffic
from employee data traffic, which will be on VLAN 1. Guest traffic will be on VLAN 3, separating it from
both employee data and voice traffic.
• Description: Visiting guests
Unregistered-Guests QoS and User Profile
Enter the following if you are using the captive web portal approach for providing guest access (see "Guest Access
with Captive Web Portal" on page105). A HiveAP applies this profile to users who have not yet registered, or do not
successfully register, through the captive web portal.
Click Configuration > User Profiles > (check box) Guests > Clone > General, enter the following, and then click
Save:
• User Profile Name: Unregistered-Guests
• Attribute: 6
Because each user profile attribute number must be unique and 1 – 5 have already been assigned, enter "6"
here. This number can be any unique number from 6 to 63.
• Attribute Group: Leave this field empty.
• QoS Setting: QoS-Guests
• Default VLAN: VLAN-3-Guests

Note: In this set of examples, you enable the captive web portal method to forward DHCP and DNS traffic to
external servers. So that the clients of registered users can continue to use the network settings that
they received while they were still unregistered, you must configure both the Guests and
Unregistered-Guests profiles with the same VLAN.
