Concession WiFi: every tenant on its own key, none on its own SSID
Each concession or tenant in a mall, airport or venue gets its own key and VLAN, kept apart from shoppers and centre systems. Malls run their concessions this way today, and so do Vancouver International Airport and Kinetic Melbourne Airport.

FAQ
Common questions
Does each tenant need its own SSID?
No. Every tenant shares one xPSK SSID with its own key and VLAN, so the airtime cost of an SSID per tenant goes away.
Where does this run today?
In malls, where each concession is on its own key, and at Vancouver International Airport and Kinetic Melbourne Airport.
