We have Cisco WAPs and HP switches. We have a Sidewinder (now McAfee)
firewall. No captive portal, it's just a dumb network, though I've
configured it pretty well for the original design, which, per
discussions internally, had no guest network, except for a WAP that's
connected to a DSL line in our training room for some of our customers
who come on site. That is totally separate from our production
network.

Don't know what's available, particularly - it's why I'm asking
questions here, to get some ideas.
