Our traffic for public access wifi devices are on a separate vlan that is 
routed back through our network and in to a port on our firewall where the 
stateful packet inspection runs the gamut of tests (IPS, Antivirus, Content 
Filter, Spyware).  The firewall blocks all outbound net traffic and only allows 
traffic in to our network destined for our webproxy filter.  So the only thing 
public devices can do is surf the net if they enter our proxy address in to 
their browser.  No server access is allowed on untrusted devices.

Now that my wireless is installed (last AP fired up this afternoon) I have had 
requests for the password to get on.
I have not provided that to anyone, but rather explained that things were not 
ready for public access yet...

All of my district owned equipment has the PSK and can connect as though they 
are hard wired...but I wonder what other districts do for public access. For 
instance I had a student from the neighboring district want to get online here 
to do some homework before practice (we co-op with this other school.) I really 
felt bad saying not yet - but that is the truth of it.

We have an active directory and we push out browser proxy settings via GPO. 
Everyone must firs sign our current AUP and then they must authenticate with 
our CIPAFilter before egressing to the Internet. I want to provide "the public" 
access to a filtered Internet experience. I do not want visiting mobile devices 
to access anything other than the public Internet. This seems pretty 
strightforward, but something I have not set up before.

Even more than just the config of my HP ProCurve MSM APs/Controller my real 
question is how do you address this from a policy point of view? Do you have a 
separate document? Do you ask guests to sign something? Click on something? Is 
it part of your general AUP? etc?.?.?.
