Add a User Profile

Use this task to create user profiles that define user traffic settings on APs. After a user associates with a device, the device assigns the user to a user profile. The device can make this assignment dynamically from attributes returned by a RADIUS authentication server or statically by using the default user profile set.

  1. Go to Configure > Common Objects > Policy > User Profiles
  2. Select Add.
  3. Type a Name for the profile.
  4. Select VLAN or VLAN Group for the profile.
  5. Select a VLAN or VLAN group from the menu, or select Add.
