Question

Fnac License

I onboard my WLC to fnac and my WLC contains 5 SSID, let say SSID1 until SSID5.

SSID1 to SSID4 using WPA-PSK and SSID5 is 802.1x enabled. With this scenario there is no authentication request from WLC to the NAC If the client connect from one from SSID1 to SSID4. But if i check in the license consumed then why some host which connected to SSID1 - SSID4 is consumed license?

as per my understanding of the text, if you have devices added to FNAC even tho you dont do any kind of policies/enforcement/etc , if those devices have hosts connected to them, they will consume licenses.
