3.3.4 Testing the Wireless Networks
To make sure that the three networks are correctly configured, do the following.
• On a computer with a wireless client, scan for access points. You should see the
Guest_SSID network, but not the VoIP_SSID network. If you can see the
VoIP_SSID network, go to its SSID Edit screen and make sure Hide Name
(SSID) is set to Enable .
Whether or not you see the standard network’s SSID ( SSID04 ) depends on
whether “hide SSID” is enabled.
• Try to access each network using the correct security settings, and then using
incorrect security settings, such as the WPA-PSK for another active network. If
the behavior is different from expected (for example, if you can access the VoIP
wireless network using the security settings for the Guest_SSID wireless
network) check that the SSID profile is set to use the correct security profile,
and that the settings of the security profile are correct.
• Access the Guest_SSID network and try to access other resources than those
specified in the Layer 2 Isolation ( l2isolation01 ) profile screen.
You can use the ping utility to do this. Click Start > Run... and enter “cmd” in
the Open: field. Click OK . At the c:\> prompt, enter “ping 192.168.1.10”
(substitute the IP address of a real device on your network that is not on the
layer 2 isolation list). If you receive a reply, check the settings in the Wireless
> Layer-2 Isolation > Edit screen, and ensure that the correct layer 2
isolation profile is enabled in the Guest_SSID profile screen.
