I have been asked to provide guest access to a wireless network. I am using aironet 1200 access points and I do not want to waste one just for a few guests. I created a separate ssid on one of the access points and placed it in it's own vlan. These access points terminate in a Cisco 3650 switch. The switch is attached to the internet router. I cannot change the fast ethernet port on this router without a lot of jumping through hoops. ISP providers are funny that way. Is there a way that I can configure the 3560 switch to support both vlans through one port? There is one dhcp server on the network. I will need to provide an address to the guests connecting through the guest ssid in order for them to connect to the gateway firewall further upstream. I do not want these guests to have access the the rest of the internal network nor do I want them to use up all the available bandwidth. Where do I begin?

Can you make a trunk between the WAP and the Switch? Not sure if the 3560 is a layer 3 off hand but it could do the routing for you.
