Management decisions about security policy

Who is going to be responsible for managing guest accounts? What privileges will the guest account manager
have? Will this person only create guest accounts or will this person also be permitted access to reports?

Do you want guests to be able to self-provision their own network access? What settings should be applied to
self-provisioned visitor accounts?
l
How will operator logins be provisioned? Should operators be authenticated against an LDAP server?
l
Who will manage reporting of guest access? What are the reports of interest? Are any custom reports needed?
