Segregate Guest WiFi
I have 6 switches with 16 WAX620s. I have created a guest wifi and office wifi. The APs are connected to the GS752TPv2. How would I put the guest wifi on a separate network from the office?
Hello andysts
Please configure vlan for Guest network, so that Guest network will be isolated from main network.
Thanks,

How do I do this? Do I create the Vlan at the access point level or switch? I have 2 networks so I don't want them to loose connection.
Hi andysts
Please follow these steps:
1. First Create Vlan ID in Rouer and assign dhcp for particular vlan ID ex. vlan10 dhcp 192.168.10.x
2. Create same vlan id (example vlan10) at switch side and Tag vlan ID to switch ports where WAX620 Connected. Please make sure VLAN ID must be enabled in all the ports of switch where WAX620 connected.
3. At WAX620 side -> configure Guest ssid with profile vlan10 instead of default 1.
4. Now clients connected to guest ssid will get IP address in the range of 192.168.10.x, this is how we can separate the n/w.Thanks,

I have a Nighthawk AX2400. I created the vlan but it does not support me assigning a new DHCP. Suggestions?
Hi andysts
Got it, let me go through Nighthawk AX2400 vlan creation options, Will update you asap.
and try to provide you other options to segregate the guest network.
