CCIE Enterprise Wireless (v1.0) – 4.4 Guest management – 4.4.b Central web authentication

Requirements: AAA auth list and accounting list. The configuration should be on both anchor and foreign.



Create WLAN on anchor and foreign





Create an profile – the profile MUST be identical on the anchor and foreign controllers





Add the SSID to the policy tab and tie it to the policy profile


The anchor policy TAG will be the same… with VLAN 666 being the client user VLAN.


Navigate to Mobility tab and enable Export Anchor. This instruct this 9800 WLC that it is the anchor 9800 WLC for any WLAN that uses that Policy Profile. When the foreign 9800 WLC  sends the clients to the anchor 9800 WLC, it informs about the WLAN and the Policy Profile that the client is assigned to, so the anchor 9800 WLC knows which local Policy Profile to use.




Create ISE conditions, authorization profiles and policy sets
