Are Wireless Access Points part of your network?
Were your access points part of your original equipment when the rest of your network was planned/built? Probably Not. New installs, or green field installations, are networks with an existing physical LAN that an organizations wishes to add Access Points(APs) to. This is done to extend the network to accommodate the growing number of users, devices, and visitors. In most cases APs are evaluated and installed without considering or leveraging existing security devices. For existing users they may be able to roam with their existing Ldap inspired credentials via a back-up Authentication method. In modern networks that does not include everybody. Thankfully modern APs have guest network options which can be set up. Some even have a check box for client isolation. Some check it, others will leave unchecked. Why?, because they may need a resource on your network.
