Description
This article describes how to map bridge mode SSID to FortiAP profile.
Solution
By default only the tunnel mode SSIDs will be enabled on the FortiAPs. To enable and make the FortiAP broadcast any bridge mode SSID, the SSID option on the Forti-AP profile needs to be set to manual and an already created bridge mode SSID has to be added.
An other requirement is to enable tunnel mode SSIDs for the respective profile, since the SSID option is set to manual.
- In the GUI: Wi-Fi & Switch controller --> FortiAP Profiles-->SSIDs, then Manual
- Add the already configured SSIDs as shown on the below screenshot.
From CLI:
config wireless-controller wtp-profile
(wtp-profile) # edit FAP210B-defau1t
(FAP210B-defau1t) # config radio-1
(radio-1) # set vap-a11 disable
(radio-1) # set vaps MP-SSID
Note: The radio-2 ,the SSID needs to be manually added on the Forti-AP profile.
