Service Options

In the Setup > General page, the card Service Option provide additional optional cofnigurations and options that can be enabled on the account.

Default VLAN assignment

Under the VLAN Assignment section you can configure the default option for assigning VLANs to Tenants.

The options are:

  • Auto: Cusna automatically assign VLANs to each new Tenant in the pool 2000-4000 (further VLANs can be enabled on demand by Cusna support team).

  • Manual: the user can assign a unique VLAN to the Tenant while creating it

  • None: VLANs are not assigned to accounts wither manually or automatically

By default, all new Cusna account are set to Auto.

This option might not available for some vendors. For example, when using Meraki you need to setup Network Policies in the Integration page.

Roaming

In some cases, you might want your users to be able to connect with the same WiFi passphrase in all your locations.

Some WiFi vendors allows to setup the PPSK configuration in such way that the PSKs works on multiple sites. For example, Juniper Mist has an option that allows to select if PSKs have a Site or Org level scope. In Cambium cnMAestro you can create one WLAN profile and assign it to multiple locations (AP groups).

Refer to the section related to the configuration of the WiFi vendor to get more details on how to configure the network to support this use case.

In the Setup, General page, find the option Roaming Communities.

When enabled, Cusna dynamically assigns a unique VLAN to each account in the organization. this means that there cannot be two account with the same VLAN in the same organization. When the user connect with its PSK to the WiFi of any location, the same VLAN will be used to tag his traffic.

When Roaming community option is disabled, the automatic VLAN assignment works on per location scope. When a new account is created, either manually or automatically via the integrations, Cusna assign a VLAN that is not used already in the Location where the account is initialized.

One enabled, the Roaming Communities option cannot be disabled. Switching on and off this option could cause duplicate assignment of VLAN to accounts.

Groups

This options allows to enable or disable Groups management on the account. This option is available only for WiFi vendors that support Groups

Units

This options allows to enable or disable Unit management on the account. This option is available only for WiFi vendors that support Unit based assignemnt of Access Points

Secure WiFi

If the the integration with Cloud4Wi Secure WiFi service has been setup in the Setup > Integration page, this section allows to enable or disabled independently the option to present the end user the Passpoint onboarding option and WPA 2 Enterprise network credentials
