Configuring W-IAP Users The Instant user database consists of a list of guest and employee users. The addition of a user involves specifying the login credentials for a user. The login credentials for these users are provided outside the Instant system. A guest user can be a visitor who is temporarily using the enterprise network to access the Internet. However, if you do not want to allow access to the internal network and the Intranet, you can segregate the guest traffic from the enterprise traffic by creating a guest WLAN and specifying the required authentication, encryption, and access rules. An employee user is the employee who is using the enterprise network for official tasks. You can create Employee WLANs, specify the required authentication, encryption and access rules, and allow the employees to use the enterprise network. The user database is also used when a W-IAP is configured as an internal RADIUS server. The local user database of W-IAPs can support up to 512 user entries. In the Instant UI To configure users: 1. Click the Security link located directly above the Search bar in the Instant main window. 2. Click Users for Internal Server. The following figure shows the contents of the Users for Internal Server tab. Figure 34 Adding a User 3. Enter the user name in the Username text box. 4.
