Rafisa WLAN networks
The SSIDs of the Rafisa WLAN networks are RAFISA-WLAN and RAFISA-GUEST. In the RAFISA WLAN, authentication takes place according to 802.1X: Based on membership of an AD group, you are connected to the corresponding VLAN after logging in. In RAFISA-GUEST, login is via WPA2-Personal with a password. The password can be requested from the helpdesk.
Connecting the access points
The access points are connected to a VLAN trunk on which VLANs 21 (instructor), 22 (student) and 23 (guest) are tagged and VLAN 1 is untagged. The PVID of the port should be 1. VLAN 1 is used for communication between access points and the Unifi controller.
It is very important that Loopguard for the VLAN trunks is switched off on the switch, as otherwise errors may occur and the port may be deactivated as a result.

Signal strength legend explanation
The signal strength is shown on the heatmap with colours. Here is a list of the colours, their meanings and which internet services work well or not well with which colours*:
| Colour | Colour Meaning | Functioning services | Restricted services |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yellow | Very strong signal | Streaming, surfing, video calls | None |
| Orange | Strong signal | Streaming, surfing, video calls | Streaming (4K with 60Hz) |
| Red | Moderately strong signal | Streaming, surfing, video calls | Streaming (UHD with 60Hz, 4K) |
| Purple | Weak signal | Surfing | Streaming, video calls |
| Blue | Very weak signal | None | Surfing, text messages |
