WMS5316 Access Point Groups
Hello, We are trying to configure a Guest Network on our WNDAP350 APs using a WMS5316, i can see how to do this (in theory create a new profile with the correct vlan etc.) but unfortunately when ...
Hi JoeBishopCDS,
The only way to achieve this is to use another AP that will be linked to a new profile that will only broadcast the staff SSID with MAC restriction.
Just let me know if you have other questions.

Hi JoeBishopCDS,
Unfortunately, this isn't possible. You can only assign the said AP on a single AP Group. I hope you won't mind me asking, why do you need the AP to be part or membered of multiple AP groups?
I'm looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,

Hi Brian,
Ah, i thought this may of been the case!
We want to lock down our staff only SSID network by mac restriction, unfortunately when we do this our guest network SSID is also locked down as its in the same profile group as the staff one. I then had the idea to create a new profile group, and add the APs to this hoping that we could use multiple groups, but as you said sadly this cannot be achieved.
If there is another way of doing this then i would appreciate some guidance.
Regards,
Joe
