4.2.1 A Note About Setting Up Connections For A Guest Network
The 9160 G2 Wireless Gateway offers an out-of-the-box Guest Interface that allows
you to configure an access point for controlled guest access to the network. The
same access point can function as a bridge for two different wireless networks: a
secure “Internal” LAN and a public “Guest” network. This can be done virtually, by
defining two different Virtual LANs via the Administration UI.
For information on configuring Guest interface settings on the Administration UI,
see Chapter 14: “Setting up Guest Access”.
