As of this writing, Nebula's front-end configuration doesn't offer a direct way to block WPA2 devices from connecting to a WPA3 SSID. However, you can accomplish this by configuring each AP individually through CLI commands.

  1. Identify the specific SSID security profile.

In this example, let's configure for SSID2_testing. Command:

Router > show wlan-ssid-profile all

2. Disable transition mode for the identified security profile

Command:

Router> enable

Router# configure terminal

Router(config)# wlan-security-profile SECURITY2

Router(config-wlan-security SECURITY2)# no transition-mode

Router(config-wlan-security SECURITY2)# exit
