Installations where the WiFI controller is remote and most of the traffic is local or uses the local Internet gateway l Wireless-PCI compliance with remote WiFi controller.This configuration is useful for the following situations: FortiAP local bridging (Private cloud-managed AP)Ī FortiAP unit can provide WiFi access to a LAN, even when the wireless controller is located remotely.

#UNIFI WIRED CLIENT ACTIVITY SOFTWARE#

To provide access to other networks, create appropriate firewall policies between the software switch and other interfaces. The configuration described above provides communication between WiFi and wired LAN users only. For example, to assign the homenet_if interface to VLAN 100, enter:Ĭonfig wireless-controller vap edit “homenet_if” set vlanid 100 If your environment uses VLAN tagging, you assign the SSID to a specific VLAN in the CLI. Add the permitted User Groups.Ĭonfig system interface edit homenet_nw set ip 172.16.96.32 255.255.255.0 set type switch set security-mode captive-portal set security-groups “Guest-group”Ĭonfig system interface edit homenet_nw set member “homenet_if” “internal” endįortiAP local bridging (Private cloud-managed AP) VLAN configuration

To configure the SSID – web-based manager l Configure Captive Portal security for the software switch interface.

Configure a software switch interface on the FortiGate unit with the WiFi and internal network interface as members.

Configure the SSID so that traffic is tunneled to the WiFi controller.

To create the WiFi and wired LAN configuration, you need to: Note that software switches are only available if your FortiGate is in Interface mode. This is a convenient configuration for users.
