How to configure Dynamic Wi-Fi VLAN Assignment with FortiAP & FortiAuthenticator 

In this video, I walk you through how to dynamically assign Wi-Fi users to VLANs using FortiAP and FortiAuthenticator. Instead of creating multiple SSIDs for different user groups, you’ll learn how to use identity-based policies to automatically place users into the right VLAN based on who they are.

    Honestly, dynamic VLAN assignment sounds scary at first, but once RADIUS and FortiGate roles click, it becomes pretty clean. Pushing users into VLANs based on auth instead of SSIDs keeps Wi-Fi simple and scalable. Debugging usually comes down to checking attributes and policies. After that, onboarding new user groups feels almost effortless.
