Network Environment:
- SmartZone/Virtual SmartZone [Essentials/High-Scale] (Controller), version 6.1.0.x.x

- Encryption Options is selected as ‘None' (but it can change based on requirement).
- Under Guest Access Portal, select ‘Guest
- In 'Guest Portal Service’, select the Guest Access Portal profile which we have created from the drop down then click on “OK”
- All other settings including VLAN assignment for end-user devices are set to the default values in my set up
