To use RSoP to view wireless network policy assignments for members of a Group Policy container

On a domain controller, open Resultant Set of Policy (RSoP) as a Microsoft Management Console (MMC). For more information, see Related Topics.
On the Action menu, click Generate RSoP Data.
On the Welcome to the Resultant Set of Policy Wizard page, click Next.
On the Mode Selection page, click Planning mode, and then follow the instructions in the wizard to run a planning mode query. For more information, see Related Topics.
In the console tree, click Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies.

Where?
- Computer Configuration/Windows Settings/Security Settings/Wireless Network (IEEE 802.11) Policies
The list of all wireless network policies is displayed in the details pane.
To view detailed policy settings for the wireless network policy that is being applied, in the details pane, right-click the policy with the highest precedence, and then click Properties.

Notes

The RSoP console only displays detailed wireless network policy settings for only the policy that is being applied. The detailed policy settings include the list of preferred wireless networks that clients can connect to, and for each preferred wireless network, the wireless network key settings, whether 802.1X authentication is enabled, and if so, the authentication settings.
The details pane in RSoP provides two ways to indicate which wireless network policy is being applied:
- The lower the number in the Precedence column, the higher the precedence of the wireless network policy. The wireless network policy with a precedence number of 1 is the policy that is being applied.
- In the Name column, the folder icon that precedes the name of the wireless network policy that is being applied contains a green dot.
You can run an RSoP planning mode query only on a domain controller (when you run a planning mode query, you must specify the name of the domain controller). However, you can specify any wireless network client as the target for the query, provided you have the appropriate permissions to do so.
To hide or display columns in the RSoP console, see Related Topics.

Your server might function differently based on the version and edition of the operating system that is installed, your account permissions, and your menu settings. For more information, see Viewing Help on the Web.
