Question

1. What is the difference between the wireless network that you provide to your customers versus the wireless network that you would provide on a guest network. Describe a guest network. How would you provision your guest network. How should they be segmented and isolated from the rest of the network

Answer 1

Explanation:

In simple terms, a guest network refers to an internet connection using a separate access point on a wireless router that can restrict guests from accessing certain files on the network.

Interestingly, a wireless network for customers can be seen as an example of a guest network if the business uses a separate wireless network different from its customers. When provisioning your guest network it is important to use strong wireless encryption protocols like the WPA2 (Wireless Protected Access 2).

A guest network can be segmented and isolated from the rest of the network by having separate access points between the guest (customer) network and the business network; can be done by following the router manual.
