Hi, We were in similar position to provide home like access to the students here. The way to solve this was to use Cisco 1815 series AP’s as OEAP, this will give the user an option to access the AP GUI and create his own SSID “and other options” while still being managed by the WLC “having the campus SSID’s also”.
We have looked into many vendors, only Cisco provides this functionality. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/td/docs/wireless/controller/technotes/8-3/b_Cisco_OfficeExtend_Access_Point_/b_Cisco_OfficeExtend_Access_Point__chapter_01100.html Yahya Jaber.

That is, we would like students to be able to register and see only their registered devices. If a user registers a device in ClearPass, is that device visible to non-registered devices (or devices registered to another user) -- even if the devices are associated with the same AP? We have received conflicting answers from our Aruba SEs, account exec, and TAC, so we are hoping to learn how to limit device visibility from others who are using ClearPass. Thanks for your advice!
