What steps are involved in deploying Ignition Guest Manager?
The Ignition Guest Manager software is typically deployed on an existing Windows server and configured to integrate with an Ignition Server appliance. Delegated provisioners who can create guest accounts are identified provided with web-based access to Guest Manager. The system is now ready to handle guest users across the campus network.

Are there any special machine or operating system requirements for guest users?
No, in conjunction with the Ignition Portal™, Ignition Guest Manager ensures that all the machines that guests bring onsite will work with your network. This includes machines that do not support or are not configured for 802.1X.

I'm planning on hosting a conference and will have a large number of guests--do I have to provision them one at a time?
No, with Ignition Guest Manager's unique ability to load users in bulk from standard CSV files, hundreds or even thousands of guest users can be quickly created. And, when the event is over, they are just as quickly removed from the system.
