John,
1. Is this multiuse center on your internal network or outside the
firewall?
ANS: It is inside our network
2. Is it only internal users who will be using this setup?
ANS: Mostly yes but we have vendors and other outside people come in
for demos but if they were there one of our people is there.
3. By security do you mean that people need to login with a different
username/password for each user, or can they all use the same
tokens?
ANS: No it is mainly the encryption key that gets to be hard to load in
and other issues with the laptops they bring in.
4. Does the policy require WEP, WPA, WPA2 (link layer encryption) or
just end-user security?
ANS: They require 128bit or higher encryption.
After some of the response I received it may require a small LINUX box
just to make lie easier.
***************
Answering these questions will get you on the right track, but the
limitation of not being able to setup a box, Linux or otherwise, will
complicate things.
Having some sort of setup where your users goto the open Access Point
(AP) running a Captive Portal and are given a Certificate which
enables WPA/WPA2 on another closed AP might work. m0n0wall or pfsense
might be able to do this, but I don't have a clue on how the Windows
world really handles this.
