Hey Jake, Thanks for that, I didn’t get the picture from the first time ;) Yes, your way is much better and less headache to the WLC.
The next thing I should find out now is how to remove all the registration blanks "username..name...last name...email..etc.." and keep only the mobile phone. Thanks again. Yahya Jaber.

Then, if the endpoint is in guest endpoint group, just put them on instead of the portal. Way easier than LWA + sleeping client. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 27, 2017, at 6:50 AM, Yahya M.
