Multiple Client Profiles
This document describes how to configure multiple client profiles (MCP).
MCP Support in the 12.3(8)JK Release
A universal workgroup bridge with multiple client profiles can automatically select a client profile,
based on the available infrastructure and set of client profiles. A client profile consists of a service set
identifier (SSID) and encryption settings that are bounded by a VLAN ID. To configure the SSID, you
use the ssid command in global configuration mode. To configure encryption settings, you use the
interface dot11radio command in global configuration mode.
For the 12.3(8)JK release, MCP is supported only on universal workgroup bridges and is subject to the

To activate the feature, you must enable the universal workgroup bridge and multiple client profiles.
All universal workgroup bridge limitations and constraints apply to multiple client profiles.
Each SSID should have an assigned VLAN ID. The cipher suites and Wired Equivalent Privacy
(WEP) for each SSID should be configured with the same assigned VLAN ID.
The infrastructure SSID and guest mode should not be configured.
Neither radio interface nor Ethernet interface should have the dot1q trunk configured.
Fast roaming is not supported. Fast roaming is supported only through a single SSID across the
entire roaming network.
Support is provided for up to 16 multiple client profiles per WMIC.
Activated profiles will use the first available SSID. Priority setting among SSIDs is not supported.
