Multiple SSID on cisco AP

I want to configure mutliple SSIDs on a cisco AP. We have vlan1 as native vlan on our core, distribution and access switches. All switches have managment IPs in vlan 8 with IPs as 192.168.8.0/24. I gave BVI1 an IP in 192.168.8.0/24 and made vlan 8 as native vlan on AP and trunk port on the switch connecting to AP and was not to get to anything on the network. DHCP did not work either.
I then gave BVI1 an IP in vlan1 range (192.168.1.0) and setup vlan 1 as native vlan on AP, I was able to ping everything and get DHCP working on other vlans.
What I want to achieve is this: Keep native vlan 1 on the cores and distribution switches for now. Give the BVI1 an IP in vlan 8. Have multiple vlans thus multiple ssids, on the AP.
I really dont want an IP in vlan 1 on BVI 1 since we are moving from vlan 1 some time in the near future.
Does having a wireless controller facilitates this scenario?
And thanks for your input

its been a while since i have done stand alone aps but its pretty basic from memory with multiple ssid

bvi interface in management network
ip default gateway in management
fa interface should be configured like a router trunk port
the ssids have to be bound to each of the vlans in the trunk.

if your not great on the ap cli i would suggest getting it up on the management network and using the gui for the remainder of the config

I will look for a backup of some of the crazy configs we used to use that had the same thing your trying to accomplish

Define your vlans
Define the vlan to SSID associations
define the SSIDs on the radio interface
sub interfaces on both the ethernet port and radio.

dot11 vlan-name SSID1 vlan 101
dot11 vlan-name SSID2 vlan 102

dot11 ssid SSID1
vlan 101
dot11 ssid SSID2
vlan 102

interface Dot11Radio0
ssid SSID1
ssid SSID2

interface Dot11Radio0.101
interface Dot11Radio0.102

interface fa0.101
interface fa0.102

I think that is everything. We have since moved to lightweight.

Thanks for your responses.
I have the AP already working with multiple SSIDs and VLANs and using EAP for authentication. My only issue is that I had to give my BVI1 interface an IP in vlan 1 (native). That s the only way I got to communicate with other vlans. What I want is give it an IP from a different VLAN say VLAN 8 which is no my native vlan. As I have stated before the native vlan on switches is vlan1.

Here is the working config off of my autonomous AP, It's a C1100 with version 12.3.

It is using the 222 VLAN as the management VLAN and is using the BVI interface. The switch port config is below this one.

The switch interface is configured with these commands:

switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q
switchport trunk native vlan 222
switchport trunk allowed vlan 108,222,252
switchport mode trunk
switchport nonegotiate

Hope this helps. -Robbie

I will try it once I get to work tomorrow.
Quick question. What s ur native clan accross the rest of the network? Is it VLAN 222 all over?

Sorry I mispelled your name. I was using my droid.

No the native vlan is 999 the management vlan is 222

No biggie, it's better than being called Robin! You have to set the native vlan on the trunk to the ap native vlan. All untagged traffic is routed to the BVI. (From experience I don't know if it can work differently but my config is in production and working fine.)

We have 1 vlan for network, 1 for management and then had 1 for the native vlan for the AP's.

BIG THANKS to ROBBIE
I have made some progress and I was able to get multiple SSIDs working. The only thing that did not work, was the SSID attached to the native vlan on the trunk ports. I had to create another vlan and made it the native on the trunk ports and everything worked.
Now I have a different question concerning NPS on windows 2008.
I have setup multiple policies for different groups. Is there a way to attach a policy to a specific SSID. I couldnt find anywhere where to add an SSID constraint.

And Thank You

Glad to help you out. I don't think their is a way to define SSI's.. I think the only thing you can define is 802.11 wireless as the type.. Uhm what are you trying to do?

Same here dude vlan1 native it's goind to be shutdown in a few months but still active
so vlan 147 officeclient // vlan 136 productionclent // vlan 128 access point management
