Use Group Policy to block joining of certain Wireless SSID

Experts,

Is there a group policy or other method to stop clients from joining a certain wireless SSID, other than using the mac filtering (75+ laptops) on the AP or router?

We will be implimenting a guest access wireless SSID that will be used for internet only for non employees. We don't want the domain laptops to be able to join the guest access. This method should be the only restricting that can be done on the laptop because the wireless users would still need to beable to connect to other wireless access points like coffe shops and airports or at home.

Please let me know if there is a way to do this and how I would go about doing it.

Thank you!

I don't see how you can push/enforce the policy on non-employees unless they're connecting to your domain.

But using the instructions at that link you might be able to create a wireless access method with the SSID as a policy condition and then Deny access to the employee group.

Darr,

How would I go about doing this I am not really following it. They would be non employees actually it would be patients and patients families connecting with their personal laptops. We don't want the nurses/social workers using this SSID because it will be unfiltered and not part of the domain network.
