Solution for Public WIFI in Multiple Location with centralised management
This thread has been locked for further replies. You can start a new thread to share your ideas or ask questions.
Hello everyone, i would like to ask for everyone's assistance on how to go about with my plan.
1. My case has something to do about having PAID PUBLIC WIFI in our town's public parks using the VOUCHER method of OMADA.
2. My intention is to have 1 SINGLE SSID in all 20 locations and that the system should allow seamless roaming between location as long as the VOUCHER is still valid.
USE CASE:
> I am in Location A which is a seaside park connected to "MYTOWN Public WIFI" using a 24 hour voucher, Location A is also the "HQ" for this setup.
> Later in the afternoon, we decided to go to Location B which is a Lakeside Park that has the "MYTOWN Public WIFI" in the area. Since my voucher is valid for 24 hours, i should be able to connect to "MYTOWN PUBLIC WIFI" in Location B (Lakeside Park)
> At night, we went to watch a movie in an LOCATON C Outdoor Cinema/Car Park, the park has the "MYTOWN Public WIFI". I should be able to connect to these network using the VOUCHER i used in Location A, and Location B.
======================
I am attaching the topology for your comment.
Please note that I have a STATIC IP ADDRESS and the ports for OMADA OC300 is already opened, and the hardware in LOCATION A, B, and C are all adopted to the OC300 in HQ, except for the routers , It looks like i cannot add more than 1 ROUTER in a SINGLE SITE.
2. How do i go about with my plan so that i will only have 1 DHCP server for all sites.
I hope i make sense. Please let me know if you need more info or if i said something confusing.
Wha i have now are 3 SEPARATE SITES as shown below
Thank you for the input, your suggestion makes sense.
I made some visual representation on what you have said.
Using this segregation method i have full control of all the hardware in my network while also achieving the desired result.
I wonder if there are other ways of doing this thing.
I can't think of any other way to do this, so your sketch looks good.
as an alternative, you can create a separate site for the paid network with only access point in, and if you need an access point in the office, you adopt these into the various sites.
