Unique SSID broadcast to multiple AP

Hi all

How can we configure multiple Access Points in order to disseminate the same unique SSID?

need to know the configuration...

Thanks in advance.

Here's a blog post I did on this very subject, virtual SSID

  • Unique SSID from the multiple SSID

    Hello

    We seek to deploy wireless at five sites great campuses, one in each State.

    Does anyone have any ideas on the deployment unique verus multiple SSID SSID for each location.

    Are the benefits of filing a return and security to identify red devices associated with

    a unique SSID.

    The question was raised that it would be easier to configure one SSID to scan wireless

    devices that have separate SSID different places.

    Would appreciate any experience on this design

    Mate,

    Remember, when you're dealing with WLC, you do not configure the APs.  You configure the WLC and configs will be propatated of all APs manages the WLC.

    The WLC, you can use up to 18 SSID but you can configure 1 024.

    Currently, I have three SSIDS and one of them is for VoWLAN.

    Moreover, some hand scanners do not like the (hidden) SSID broadcasting.

  • EA6300 SSID Broadcast

  • Printer Hp6700: unable to connect to the router wireless D - Link DI-514 when SSID Broadcast is set to no.

    HP6700 printer: unable to connect to the router wireless D - Link DI-514 when the router Broadcast SSID is set to no. My MAC laptop and HP laptop both work with the set SSID on no. If I change the router Wireless SSID Broadcast is YES, then the printer HP6700 can connect to the wireless router. I set up the printer it saying that the SSID and password have been, the same as both of my laptops, but it connects ever, unless I have change the router to broadcast the SSID. Help!

    Have you tried to update the firmware on the DI-514?

    You can also try to set a static IP address on the printer, and then assign the printer to the list of DHCP static in the interface of the router.
    To give a static IP address to your printer:
    -Print a the front of the printer Network Setup Page. Note the IP address of the printer.
    -Enter the IP address in a browser to reveal the internal settings of the printer.
    -Choose the network tab, then wireless along the left side, then on the IPv4 tab.
    -On this screen, you want to set a manual IP address. You must assign an IP address outside the range that the router sets automatically (called the DHCP range). If you do not know the range, change the last set of numbers (those after the last '.') 250
    -Apply the subnet 255.255.255.0 (unless you know it's different, if so, use it)
    -Enter the IP of your router (on the Page of the Network Config) for the gateway.
    -Enter for the first DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 for second DNS. It's Google DNS. You can choose a different external DNS if you wish.
    -Click 'apply '.
    Now, stop the router and printer, start the router, wait, and then start printing.

    After that you remove and re - add the printer to your Mac.

  • Unable to connect via wireless with SSID broadcast disabled

    I want to configure my router for my SSID is not broadcast, because I think it's a logical step to take for increased security. I have not been able to do since I started using my new laptop Inspiron 5558. I tried this several times and every time I turn off the SSID broadcast, I am not able to connect to the Wi - Fi on this laptop. Other remote computers in my house and my smartphone connect without problem, but nothing I've tried helps my new computer Dell laptop to connect via Wi - Fi, except for allowing the SSID broadcast.

    I have a router Actiontec MI424WR reverend E. I have installed the new driver and the Intel PROset utility and unfortunately nothing has changed. I went to the settings to investigate some of the other solutions offers, and I came across something that seems to have solved my problem. What I found in SETTINGS/network & Internet/change adapter options/Wi-Fi/see the status of my properties of connection/Wireless / on the connection tab, it was an uncontrolled area with the words "connect even if the network is not broadcasting its name (SSID). I checked this box, and since then, I was able to connect to my network wireless with SSID broadcast disabled. I will now call this resolved and if no new problems arise. start a new post. Thanks for sticking with me on this.

  • SSID broadcast

    Want a couple of opinions on the broadcast of the SSID or not. We have 200 series 1200 ap on a University campus and currently distributed only in a few areas (5%) on campus we also have cisco WLSE to manage.

    In my humble OPINION, not broadcasting the SSID is security the same way that wrap you in aluminum foil you made the bulletproof. (It is not / is not, believe me).

    A large part of the decision boils down to bandwidth management.

    For example, do not broadcast your SSID, anyone using MS Windows Zero Config Wireless will have connection problems... ZWC always will prefer a SSID broadcast, often even if you have the client 'hard-coded' to associate with a specific SSID. Expect phone calls.

    Or the other decision, I hope that you have some solid backend authentication and authorization.

    It is essentially you have something other people want to (bandwidth, potentially free band). If you're lucky, people will * only * steal bandwidth.

    In the past, I think you will find that 'only' bandwidth theft is not enough, you will get some hotshot King or kiddie-script, or spammer, porn that will do malicious things in and on your network (if you are broadcasting your SSID or not.. Word bypass).

    Convenience for users and reduce the ' my laptop does not connect to your wireless system (it tries to connect to rogue AP from some students or other hotspot) calls. "

    Also keep them my mind is that if you don't broadcast your SSID, unlike someone else (malicious) (advertise * your * SSID)... they can usurp the user and capture traffic... or at least it makes it much easier to perform a man-in-the-middle attack (do a search for "ettercap").

    Advertise your SSID and have a good system of auth/auth on the back-end. Everything in the newspaper and be vigilant. Have a plan (and a strong policy) to deal with attackers and did not hesitate to run it.

    It is worth a few days of discussion, around this topic and a variety of opinions each valid in a given context. You must weigh the consumers against the administration, against the risk, compared to the budget... and a dozen other variables.

    (In general), there is no single best answer for most scenarios.

    That's why a good designer / architect system pulls down the fortunes and worth ever penny.

    Good luck

  • ADM 32 GB will not allow a unique SSID and password to be put in place

    Sir / Madam,.

    I got a new 32 GB ADM.  I have updated to Firmware 3.04.  I was able to reset the Admin password without problem.  However, the unit will not allow an SSID / unique password to create its own network.  I typed the info in the settings/edit page the Wi - Fi connection settings, with selected WPA security.  It will allow me to type the information in the data fields, and select done.  But then brings the following error message.

    "Error: failure Action was not successful."  Please try again later. »

    I also tried only to set a password, with WPA, using the name SSID default ('6B 23 SanDisk media").  It works no more.  I tried this in a few days.  The unit is fully charged.  He has no problem to connect with my home Wi - Fi network.

    In addition, on the page of my iPad device settings/Wi-Fi, 6 B 23 of SanDisk media is visible and connects without a problem.  But it says "Safety recommendation" under this network name.  I guess that's because there is no password set.

    I need for this unit to be sure until I'm able to use in public.  Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Lee

    drlucky... OK, I called SanDisk and they understood the problem with me on the phone.  Wireless Media Drive passwords do NOT accept special characters or spaces.  Numbers and upper & lower case only.  Even for the SSID, except spaces are Ok for the SSID.  Hope this helps someone else who can read it.

  • EA2700 disable SSID broadcast

    I am the latest firmware of the EA2700, but why I can not find it is turn off the broadcast SSID function?

    In the broadcast SSID router configuration is no longer an option in Linksys Smart Wi - Fi routers. Because there are different software for wifi analyzers, network whose SSID are hidden, yet be detected and seen by these software.

  • Help: wet610n will not connect to wrt610n when the ssid broadcast is disabled

    I have a wet610n wirteless bridge linking very well with my router wrt610n broadcast ssid is enabled on the router, but when I turn it off then (the rest unchanged), the wet610n can not connect.

    What I am doing wrong?

    Or require the wet610n ssid will be broadcast (I didn't read that anywhere)?

    Thank you

    I have power cycled it, but I tried again and then experienced little more after you reset the wet610n and reconfiguring again.

    What seems to work, is to allow the broadcast of the SSID of the router and leaving the wet610n bridge wireless connection. So I can turn off the broadcast of the SSID and power cycle the wet610n and it can then connect.

    Without the first activation of SSID and connected, the bridge connects wireless.

    Thank you - it is "resolved".

  • Need help creating Unique SSID and secure network

    My AP has been recently reset the SSID I had chosen has of course been erased and AP is now considered to be "linksys". It also now broadcasts as an open network.

    I tried to create a new network using the Intel PROSet/Wireless graphical user interface that came with my PC and it allows me to create a SSID and put a password on it, but it does not affect the real "linksys" network even if I would have erased "linksys" in the text box and enter my own.

    I tried in vain to reset the AP again and connect to 192.168.1.245 using IE and firefox, I get an error loading page every time. I have also tried to set the IP address of my PC to the same meanings and the subnet by default 255.255.etc and could not connect.

    I also tried to connect the AP to the pc directly, what does not work.

    What I am doing wrong.

    PS. I don't have the original installation CD, I think it would be solved.

    I managed. Thank you!

  • Cisco 5508 wlc mesh SSID broadcast?

    Hello

    I feel a strange phenomenon in my environment. Users on computers laptops Windows seem to be trying to connect to the SSID, they see the arrival of an access point which is mode bridge (and not broadcasting an SSID). I confirmed that nothing weird happens where the bridge would be broadcast SSID (standing right next to the newly imaged bridge on a laptop and when I connect I continue straight to a properly configured flexconnect AP).

    There is no output from the path of the box in Windows to tell the operating system that an access point is not valid once he thinks he is, so I'm reaching out to the community to see if someone else has seen this before. My next troubleshooting step is to bridges in stand-alone mode, if I can't find an answer.

    The environment consists of a WLC HA pair, standard 5508 flexconnect environment internal wireless, and we have a pair of bridge linking the two buildings. The affected computers are Windows 7 and Windows 8

    Hello

    Are you sure the mesh, access point is not configured to announce the WLAN of concern?

    Unless it is in a group of AP with no WLAN, WLAN 1-16 will be announced via its interface 2.4 ghz (and 5 GHz so "mesh access customer backhaul" is enabled).

    Here's a controller cli command to confirm (1550 is the AP name) ("site name" is the ap group)

    (jk-4400-111) > show ap WiFi 802. 11 b 1550

  • Cisco ISE 1.1.1 - unique SSID

    I'm working on our implementation of the ISE, and these are my two goals.

    1. one SSID to BYOD users and systems businesses managed.

    • Connection to the NAC agent if it is not part of the domain (EX: computer laptop windows is not part of the joined field the SSID, passes through the self-service, agent NAC downloads portal, must connect on NAC agent each time that join network with AD credentials)
    • AD connection must adhere to this SSID, no guests not allowed

    2 comments SSID

    • Comments connection requires only - sponsor
    • Agent required for Web windows machine
      • Required AV
      • Current AV definitions required

    These objectives are achievable or I'm better to go in a different direction is my first question.

    Secondly, using the Guide of Smart Solution from Cisco BYOD (link at the bottom of post), he mentions the unique as SSID not being is not complicated but something it does work thanks to the double solution SSID, which parameters are necessary for one SSID? I use Open + MAC filtering but when the supplicant trying to connect it does not work because it is looking for a WPA2 network with the same SSID name.

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Borderless_Networks/Unified_Access/byoddg.html

    One SSID is specifically mentioned here:

    http://www.Cisco.com/en/us/docs/solutions/Enterprise/Borderless_Networks/Unified_Access/byoddg.html#wp504735

    David,

    What makes the documentation, is that it created a State that performs the check for the ssid in the access-request packet:

    Guest_Authz is a condition of simple permission set by the user for customers accessing the Internet through Web authentication via the WIFI network at the open prompt SSID. It corresponds to the next pair of RADIUS AV of the Airespace dictionary:

         Airespace-Wlan-Id - [1] EQUALS 1

    So that when the user connects to the network, they connect through the ssid of comments in which he has the id of wlan of the 1. Either you can do that in your right authorization rule in the screenshot, or you can create this condition under the tab elements of strategy.

    Thank you
