Optionally Enable Guest Network Privileges (S-, K-Series)

With PWA enhanced mode enabled, you can optionally configure guest networking privileges. Guest networking allows an administrator to specify a set of credentials that will, by default, appear on the PWA login page of an end station when a user attempts to access the network. When enhanced mode is enabled, PWA will use a guest password and guest user name to grant network access with default policy privileges to users without established login names and passwords.

In order to configure guest networking privileges, you need to set the guest status, user name, and password. You can set guest status for no authentication, RADIUS authentication, or disabled. When you set guest status to no authentication, guest status is provided with its associated policy, but no authentication takes place. When you set guest status to RADIUS authentication, guest status is provided only after a successful authentication takes place. If guest networking status is disabled, all supplicants must be authenticated with a valid user name and password at the login page.
