Finally, Cisco IT wanted the guest wireless hotspots to use the same Cisco Aironet 350 and 1200 wireless access points already used for corporate voice and data traffic. Cisco IT selected the Cisco Building Broadband Service Manager, a "hotspot in a box" solution after considering the Cisco Service Selection Gateway.
