How to configure with the Wizard Setting
This example shows how to get start with Wizard. It will be easier to complete the deployment configuration of the AP and the NXC. The Wizard setting includes Uplink Connection, VLAN Setting and AP Profile. The NXC will be the DHCP server for the stations, and all the guest stations must pass the captive portal authentication. NXC5500 does not support Wizard Setting now.
Figure. Add configuration via Wizard settings.
Note:
All network IP addresses and subnet masks are used as examples in this article. Please replace them with your actual network IP addresses and subnet masks. This example was tested using USG210 (Firmware Version: V4.30), GS2210 (Firmware Version: V4.50), NXC2500 (Firmware Version: 5.40)

1.2 Test the Result
Connect NXC P1 to USG LAN, and NXC P2 to Switch. And connect AP to the Switch.
1 Login with guest-manager account.
2 Dynamic Guest User Group: Wiz_Dynamic_Guest
Click Apply.
3 User a station connect to the SSID “Guest” and login with the Guest account. Monitor the account via the Monitor > System Status > Login Users > Login Users.
