WiFi Schedules

Introduction

In February 2023 we introduced an enhancement to MESHdesk and APdesk that allows you to specify an optional schedule per SSID.
The schedule allows you to specify which times the WiFi radio will make the various SSIDs available to users.
Home deployments can have two SSIDs.
- One will be used by the adults which does not have any schedule.
- A second SSID can be used by the kids and have a schedule associated to it.
SME deployments can have a dedicated staff SSID with a schedule that matches office hours.

To apply a schedule, simply select a Mesh or AP Profile and edit it.
On the Mesh network select an Entry Point to which you want to apply the schedule and edit it.
On the AP Profile select the SSID to which you want to apply the schedule and edit it.
There is a Schedule tab that allows you to enable the schedule and then which time-slots the SSID should be available.
After you set up the schedule to your liking, click OK to save the schedule.
Reboot the Access Points to which this schedule apply to allow it to fetch its schedule from the controller.
Any time you want to make a change to the schedule you ca simply edit the existing schedule, save it and reboot the Access Point for the changes to apply.
