I've been asked to provision some of our offices with wireless Internet
access for guests such as clients and vendors. Since these offices are often
in shared buildings, I need to provide some kind of authentication and
access management so we're not providing free WiFi for the whole building or
block. I was thinking of a hotel-type system, where the users must
authenticate to a logon page before being allowed out to the Internet. One
wrinkle in that might be that we want to support VPN traffic, not just
HTTP/S. We use Cicso APs.

 

Any thoughts or experiences in this area that anyone could share? I'd prefer
a system with a central management point, as this solution will be deployed
at a number of sites worldwide.

 

Thanks,
