Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation verified by Juniper Mist documentation:
To ensure a guest WLAN is available only on a specific lobby AP, the correct approach according to Juniper Mist best practices is to create a new "Guest" WLAN template and add it to the lobby AP using a device profile. This method leverages device profiles for targeted SSID airtime availability, allowing granular WLAN assignment to selected APs (not all APs or sites). Juniper's documentation and solution briefs confirm that device profiles control which SSIDs broadcast on specific access points within a site, supporting scenarios like dedicated guest access only in particular areas such as the lobby.
Creating WLANs in standard templates enables SSID broadcast across all assigned APs, not selectively per device. Organization labels do not restrict SSID broadcast for individual APs.
Verification:
Your selected answer in the image ("Create a new 'Guest' WLAN template and add it to the lobby AP using a device profile") is correct and aligns with Juniper's recommended workflow.
