Multiple SSIDs with Multiple (split) VLANs & GW ---- for shopping mall

Hi Experts,
I suppose to sell the shared infrastructure service. Now I'm holding a couple of 8500 (HA). With almost 450 APs. 
I'm designing my actual WiFi service for this "Shopping Mall" to retails.
Each of retail shop should own his AP inside their own shop. The AP should ONLY broadcast his own SSID such "Starbucks-WIFI". Each shop sholud not be able to hook into the other shops network.
Problem are 
If I have 100-500 customers/retail shops. Can I achieve my goal with a ginven WLC8500?
How many SSID can be actived at once?
How many AP group can be configured and turned on at once?
What would be the actual topology which is the best practice for? --- IMO, shop broadcast their own SSID >> access switch dedicated VLAN >> VRF (64VRF max @ CAT4500) or dedicated GW at Firewall >> dedicated internet link.
I found some relevant post but it not explitict to my env. Wireless Max SSID on WLC and AP | Getting Started with Wireless ...
Cheer & Br,

How many SSID can be actived at once?
Go to WLAN > Advanced > AP Groups.
All APs fall into the default-group.  Each AP can advertise a maximum of 16 SSIDs.  If you are smart, you can create a number of AP Groups and individual APs can be assigned to a specific AP Group.  One of the main selling point with AP Groups is the ability to assign specific SSIDs.  So if you create an AP Group called Starsbuck and in the AP Group you assign only the Starsbuck SSID and then assign only one AP then this AP will ONLY advertise the specified SSID.  
Good news is the 8500 can support up to 6K AP Groups (read THIS).

  • Multiple SSID With Multiple VLANs configuration on Cisco Aironet APs: Assotiated clients cannot obtain IP addresses

    Hi Surendra,
    I was just given this task to see how i can configure a second ssid for guest access in our environment.
    this is our network setup prior to this request: Internet----Firewall (not ASA)---ce520---C1131AG and CME router is also connecting to the ce520 switch. we only have two vlans: one for voice and two for data.
    Presently, there is no vlan configured on the AP because it on broadcasting ont ssid and wireless users gets IP from a windows DHCP server on the LAN. the configuration on the ce520 switch port for the AP and other switches say access vlan is the DATA vlan which automatically becomes the native vlan for all trunk port connecting the AP and other Stiches to the network.
    Now with this new requirement, i have made my research and i have configured the AP to broadcast both the production and the guest Vlans. The two vlans are 20-DATA and 60-Guest. I made the DATA vlan on the AP the native vlan since the poe switch is using the DATA vlan as native on the trunk ports. I configured the firewall to serve as DHCP server for the guest ssid and i have added the ip helper-address on the guest vlan interface on all switches while the windows server remains the dhcp server for the production DATA Vlan. I have confirmed that the AP, switches can ping the default gateway of the guest dhcp server which is another interface on the firewall. I can now see and connect to all broadcasted ssids but the problem is I am not getting IP addresses from both the production dhcp server and guest dhcp server when i connected to the ssid one at a time.
    My AP config is attached below.
    Please tell me what am I doing wrong.
    Do i need to redesign the whole network to have a native vlan other nthan the data vlan?
    Does the access point need to be aware of the voice vlan?
    Do the native Vlan on the AP need to be in Bridge-group 1 or can i leave it in bridge-group 20?
    I will greatly appreciate your urgent response.
    Thanks in advanced.

    Hi,
    As far as i know we dont set the ip helper address on the radio interface. It should be on the L3 interface of corresposding VLANs i.e.
    int vlan 20
    ip helper-address 192.168.33.xxx
    int vlan 60
    ip helper-address 130.20.1.xxx
    I'm assuming that your using SVI's (int Vlan 20 and int Vlan 60) rahter than physical interfaces. Also hope you have configured switch port as trunk where this AP is connected.
    Modify the AP config as below since you are using data vlan as the native vlan
    interface Dot11Radio0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    interface FastEthernet0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    Ideally your AP fastethernet configuration should looks like below and not sure how you missed this as this comes by default when you have multiple vlans for multiple ssids.
    interface FastEthernet0.20
    encapsulation dot1Q 20 native
    no ip route-cache
    bridge-group 20
    no bridge-group 20 source-learning
    bridge-group 20 spanning-disabled
    interface FastEthernet0.60
    encapsulation dot1Q 60
    no ip route-cache
    bridge-group 60
    no bridge-group 60 source-learning
    bridge-group 60 spanning-disabled
    Hope this helps.

  • Multiple SSIDS with VLAN ACL seperation

    Hi,
    I have bought a 887W and I'm new to wireless on a router, I need advice about seperating multiple SSIDs with access list.
    I have configured 2 SSIDs one for 'trusted' clients and one for 'guest' clients. I want to prevent the 'guest' SSID obtaining access to the other vlan/SSID using an ACL.
    Each SSID is associated with a BVI, the BVI has the IP address, then it's linked to a seperated VLAN interface, then each VLAN.
    Thanks if you can help...
    Dave

    Solved my issue, I simply attached the ACLs to the BVI interfaces. Fairly obvious, but I read a Cisco webpage that said this could not be done, although this may have been a temporary bug that has been fixed.

  • Using multiple SSID with AP 1100 (standalone mode).

    Hi, need to configure 2 SSID on the same 1100 AP: open authentication and WPA2. It's possible to configure these 2 SSID without configuring VLAN's ?
    On CCO I've read the following:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/products/hw/wireless/ps430/products_qanda_item09186a008009483e.shtml
    Q. How many service set identifiers (SSIDs) can you have per VLAN?
    A. You can have only one SSID per VLAN. The use of multiple SSIDs over a single VLAN is not supported with Aironet APs.
    It's also true with the latest IOS release ?

    Hi Roberto,
    Hopefully the attached docs will answer your question:
    Cisco Aironet 1100 Series
    Using VLANs with Cisco Aironet Wireless Equipment
    Deprecated versions of Cisco Aironet software permit binding multiple SSIDs to one VLAN. Current versions do not.

  • Multiple Macs with multiple user accounts

    I have a Mac computer connected to airport and use Time Machine for backups. This works well.
    I have now purchased a second Mac and would like to include this second Mac so that I can move between Macs and work. There does not appear to be any mechanism to allow this.

    After searching the web and the discussion here, here's my minimal impact solution for multiple Macs with multiple users in a household:
    1) Set up Mac1 for myself only
    2) Set up Mac2 for the wife and kid
    3) Set up each Mac to backup to the Airport base station using Time Machine (this would create two separate backups on the Airport base station's drive, which from what I've read has its own problems)
    4) On Mac1 setup "empty user accounts" for the wife and kid. These will not have any files in them - just an access mechanism. If they want to access their files, they can use Time Machine's "The Browse Other Backup Disks Option" to get their file from Mac2, work on it and then drop it in the Shared Folder. Next time they are on Mac2, remember to copy the updated/created file from the Shared Folder into their Mac2 user account. If possible, get Time Machine to not backup the "empty user accounts".
    5) Do the same for me on Mac2.
    Not the most elegant solution, but until Apple get off their backside and make this seamless, I can't think of anything else :-( .
    P.S. iCloud is not a soluton since it costs hundreds of dollars a year, uses up intenet data allowance and is slow.

  • Multiple Quizzes with multiple results (in Captivate 6)

    Hey guys, Thanks for reading!
    Does anyone know if it is possible to do multiple tests with multiple results in captivate 6? or if it is possible to have a pre-test with a quiz, and have separate results for each?
    I've been having a play with captivate 6 and when I put a quiz in, it overrides the results slide for my pre-test.
    Looking at the results slide master properties I can choose to have results for one of my quizzes but not both (even on separate slides):
    It wont even let me insert another slide based on the other result.
    I would like to know if multiple quizzes with multiple results is possible in Captivate 6?, or if I am simply doing something wrong?
    Thanks!

    Sorry for way-late reply...
    It's really more how your LMS handles 'courses' and the terminology it uses.
    Essentially, most often, a 'SCORM Package' (SCO) is a 'course'. I'd rather call each SCO a 'lesson' as, to me, 'courses' should be setup in the LMS with a series of 'Lessons'.
    Regardless of the terminology, each 'SCO' is launched by the LMS and one score can be recorded for it via SCORM.
    So if you need multiple final scores recorded, each of those final scores need to be in their own SCO.
    A common approach is a Pre-Test SCO (or 'lesson', or 'course', whatever term), a 'Content' SCO perhaps with some interspersed scored interactions, and a Post-Test SCO...all three merged together as a 'course' (or whatever term) within the LMS.
    That said, as said, it really all depends on how your LMS handles various SCOs...
    Clear as mud?

  • Can the RV180W have multiple SSIDs with different security configurations?

    I am trying to configure the RV180W with a guest network and regular wireless network. The regular wireless network is just a bridge to the wired network, using WPA2-Pers for authentication. I built and enabled another wireless SSID, using a different VLAN and no authentication. I can get both SSIDs to function at the same time if I turn off security. Once I turn on Security, the regular one no longer functions.

    It is actually all in the manual:
    SEE: PDF MANUAL
    Page 63 of PDF and onwards
    Do note that you need to assign multiple VLAN per SSID. Check the manual it is there :D
    and based on the manual you need to enable multiple VLAN support: See page 34 of the manual: Configuring Virtual LAN (VLAN) Membership

  • Multiple SSID with different Login Web authority pages

    Our current setup is one Anchor control and then several WLC’s, I want to know if I can have multiple SSID and use different Web Auth pages form them, so I can have a SSID that requires a password to Authentication access and another SSID that requires pass through Authentication but they would have different web authentication pages and go to different pages once Authenticated.
    Is this possible to ?

  • WLC 5760 multiple SSIDs with MAC filtering

    Dear All,
    I am implementing a wireless network with 5760 WLCs. The client requires a few SSIDs with MAC-based authentication. So I created different MAC filters using the commands "aaa authorization network MAC_FILTER01 local", "aaa authorization network MAC_FILTER02 local" etc
    These filters are bound to different SSIDs using the commands "mac-filtering MAC_FILTER01" "mac-filtering MAC_FILTER02" etc. and users are added to their required MAC filters using the commands "username <mac-address> mac aaa attribute list MAC_FILTER01", "username <mac-address> mac aaa attribute list MAC_FILTER02" etc.
    Now I am facing a serious issue - users belonging to any one MAC filter can connect to the all SSIDs. It seems like the MAC addresses added to the controller under different filter names are going to a common database, thereby providing access to users to all SSIDs irrespective of their MAC filter.
    Is it a limitation of local database of 5760? Has anyone faced the same issue? How can I implement independent MAC filters bound to different SSIDs?
    Thanks,
    Arun John

    Hi Arun,
    this feature currently does not exist on the  5760. it is due to release in one of the MR's of 3.6

  • How do set up multiple devices with multiple graphs in labview

    Hello,
    I am new at LabView, and we are trying to setup a test rig to measure voltage, pressure and flow rates. We are currently using a NI-6009USB box and Labview version 8.2.  Our problem lies in setting up the actual measurements on separate graphs. How do i go about setting up the daq-assistant to measure mulitple devices, and graph them on their own graphs?  We also need to know how to program in when measuring flow, how to convert it from square wave form to a calibrated curve?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!
    Nate

    When you configure the DAQ Assistant, you will be first asked to select the measurement type. Assuming that you have voltage sensors because you have the 6009, you select Analog Input>Voltage. You then get a list of devices. Since you only have one, it should be listed as Dev1. Expand that and then pick the channels you have connected to the sensors. Just like it says at the bottom of the of the channel window, you can select multiple channels with  <CTL> or <SHIFT> click. After you've done that, the next window is where you select your sample rate, number of samples, etc. You can also select a custom scale for each channel. This is where you would enter any formula you have from the sensor vendor in order to convert a voltage reading to scaled units.
    The output of the DAQ Assistant is a dynamic data type. You can wire this to a single graph to display all readings together or use the Split Signals function to break out individual channels for separate graphs.

  • Would like assistance with multiple devices with multiple iTunes accounts syncing on one PC

    I have had an iPhone for some years now and have been syncing with my PC without issue (first with iPhone 3gs and now with iPhone 4s). My wife bought me an iPad 3 retina in December 2012 which syncs with the same PC as my phone and shares the same iTunes account. Apps downloaded onto one device are automatically downloaded to the other, iMessages are sent and received to both devices also.
    My Wife now has an iPad mini with retina (using her own existing iTunes account which she previously used for an iPhone she no longer uses). I synchronised her new iPad mini with my PC assuming iTunes would manage the device and related account and contents separately to my existing account and 2 devices. However this has caused an issue with the sharing of apps. Since doing so I have started seeing updates available on my devices for apps which I have never downloaded, but my wife has.  If I tell my iPad to update said apps, I am asked for my Wife's iTunes account password. 
    On doing some searching via google I now understand that I should have created a second windows profile on my PC for my wife and installed iTunes onto this profile for the purposes of syncing her device.
    I would very much like to do this, but would like some assistance on the best course of action for doing so. If I proceed and created a second profile and sync her device to this, I presume I would need to tell iTunes to treat her iPad as a new device (and wonder what would happen to her existing content)? Assuming we do this, I presume the issue of my seeing her app updates would still persist?
    Could someone advise if they have any experience with similar issues/queries?

  • Issues with multiple Files with multiple subdbs on a single environment.

    I'm having an issue with Berkeley DB 4.2 on 32-bit platforms, regarding multiple physical files with multiple subdatabases in a single database environment. Specifically, when I open a subdatabase for a physical file, Berkeley DB thinks that it is using the same subdatabase in a different physical file.
    I'm doing the following:
    1. Create and open a db enviornment.
    2. Move file1 to the common area.
    3. Open, get and close the subdatabases in file1.
    4. Move file2 to the common area.
    5. Open, get and close the subdatabases in file2.
    6. remove file2 from the common area
    7. Move file3 to the common area.
    8. Open a subdatabase from file3. About 1/2 the time, the fetches
    return data from file2, not from file3.
    It's possible that at some earlier time (i.e. before step 1 of this
    test case), file1, file2 and file3 were the same file. I noticed
    that there is something called env->fileid_reset, but that is not
    in 4.2.52.
    Any ideas?

    Looks like I've resolved the issue

  • Help with multiple contacts with multiple phone numbers

    I'm fairly new to the iPhone so thanks in advance for any help with this issue.
    I have contact list with records for a lot of people (300+), each with several phone numbers each, home, mobile & work, etc, .I can't seem to find a way to have the iPhone announce the name & number or name & type (home,mobile,work) of the caller from the contact list, my old cell phone could do that easily.
    At the moment what I've been doing as a work around for a few (important) people is to create a custom ringtone for that caller & that phone number.  Since it also seems there's no way to attach a different ringtones to each number in a single contact record I've had to create multiple contact records for each person, each with a different name/number combination such as "John Doe Work", "John Doe Home" or John Doe Mobile" then assign to it the custom ringtone I created for that name/number. 
    I need to this so that if I receive a call while I'm driving (or whatever) that I can't answer right then for some reason (often happens),  the ringtone I created for that name & number helpfully lets me know  who & where their calling from.  It's very important to know where someone is calling from, if someone's calling from home then I know I've got some time,  but if their calling from work then I need to get back to them quickly.
    This is a real pain!, having to make multiple contacts & ringtones for a every person with multiple numbers is a extraordinary waste of time.  My old cell phone could do this with no problem but there doesn't seem to be any way to do this with my new iphone.  Am I missing something here?  I am new to the iPhone so if there’s a solution to this that I’ve missed I'd very much appreciate the assistance.
    Thanks in advance.
