I have a Google WiFi network with one Google WiFi node as a router connected to both a wired LAN and to a Google Fiber ONU. 4 other Google WiFi nodes are configured as access points (bridge mode). The APs mesh over a *wired* switched Ethernet network. I have both a main(192.168.1/24) and guest (10./8) network already set up on the Google WiFi nodes running with independent SSIDs. I want to add an outdoor/weather proof access point (bridge mode) to *both* main and guest networks/SSIDs. The outdoor AP has ability to broadcast two SSIDs. The outdoor AP is connected to the Google WiFi router via the same wired switched Ethernet network. *All* clients connected to the outdoor AP, regardless if connected to the guest or main SSID, are being assigned main network IP addresses (192.168.1/24). *All* traffic from the outdoor AP goes to the main network regardless of which SSID the WiFi clients (e.g., phones, laptops, etc) connect. I would like the guest network clients and traffic separated on the outdoor AP as on the indoor Google WiFi nodes. Is there a way to get the outdoor AP (TP-Link EAP650) to VLAN tag or otherwise interact with the Google WiFi router to assign guest network IP addresses to the guest network clients and main network IP addresses to the main network clients? Is there some protocol e.g., DHCP relay option, that the Google WiFi APs (bridge mode) use over the mesh to tell the Google WiFi router which SSID the client is connected to guest or main? How does Google WiFi separate the guest vs main network traffic over the mesh? I’m fairly network savvy so don’t spare the tech details.
