Hey all,
This is a 2 part question, I have 2 Cisco Aironet 1130ag (A/B/G) access points that I want to have setup in this way:
Both broadcast 2 SSID's, which are setup on 2 different VLAN's. One for a secured network (internal employees), which would have access to internal servers, and services.. and a second ssid where anyone connected would ONLY have access to outside internet access (for contractors, visitors, and temps)..
I have already setup the VLAN's on both the PIX firewall (new interface), and on the Access points. I have created different SSID's and associated them with each seperate VLAN's. I can get internet access through both SSID's so I know the VLAN's are configured atleast minimal.
My problem is, It seems that I am only broadcasting 1 SSID at a time. In my lab, on one laptop I will see the Default SSID, and on another I will only see the second SSID. Is there a way I can go to test and make sure both are broadcasting? I have been in the web interface for approx 3 hours already looking anywhere for an option.
I remember reading somewhere that you can only broadcast 1 SSID per radio channel. That I would need to set each SSID to broadcast on a seperate radio frequency channel. Is this true, and if so where do I go to change that?
