I’ve been pretty happy with the Unifi wifi access points I picked up a few months back, but one of the things I hadn’t managed to replicate over my old setup was a guest wifi network.

If I went all-in and bought a Unifi router, this would probably be fairly trivial to set up. But I wanted to build on the equipment I already had for now. Looking at some old docs, I’d need to get trunked VLAN traffic to the APs to separate the main and guest networks.

A while back I bought some UniFi access points. I hadn’t gotten round to setting up the Network Controller software to properly manage them though, so thought I’d dig into setting that up.
