Example 4: Large business, guest access, extended network services
Acme Works is now a widely known and successful enterprise. With an ever increasing number of
visitors requiring network access, the network administrator decides to implement a corporate guest
access solution.
A guest VLAN and service profile are created and bound to the Corporate SSID, and a guest
password is created. Guests can now visit Acme Works, log in using the guest password through a
web browser, and obtain access to the resources available on the guest VLAN.
As additional needs arise, the network administrator can easily add new VLANs and service
profiles, and change the available levels of service. New VLANs are created to segregate traffic for
the Manufacturing and Engineering departments, and new service profiles are created to
accommodate members of those departments. Special classes of service are assigned for
applications sensitive to interruption or bandwidth fluctuation, such as voice over IP, and low
priority, bandwidth-intensive applications such as FTP transfers.
The network configuration for this example is shown in Figure 11, and the feature decisions are
shown in Figure 12.
