This article outlines how to configure the Guest Network feature on an Omada controller.
- Omada Controller (Software Controller / Hardware Controller / CBC, v5.9 and above)
- Omada AP
The Guest Network feature allows you to set up a network that is independent of the main network. You can configure a separate SSID and password for the guest network, allowing guests to access the internet while remaining isolated from the main network. Clients connected to the guest network can access the internet but cannot access or download the internal network resources, thereby safeguarding the privacy and network security of the main network
Step 1. Go to Setting > Wireless Network > WLAN and click Create New Wireless Network to load the following page.
Step 2. Customize the Network Name (SSID), select a Security mode (WPA-Personal is used as an example), enter the Security Key, check the box to enable Guest Network, and click Apply to save the settings.
Once configured, you can use two clients to verify that the function works.
Step 1. Connect two clients to the SSID, for example, a desktop computer (IP: 192.168.0.102) and a mobile phone (192.168.0.101).
Step 2. On the desktop computer, ping the mobile phone’s IP. The ping fails, but the computer and the phone can access the internet, indicating that the function has been enabled and works properly.
Guests can access the internet through the guest network.
