### How to Add a Keypool to a Venue

Any Keypool set as a Global Keypool will automatically be added to the Venue. If you wish to add a Local Keypool to the venue, you may do so during the Venue Creation Wizard or Navigate to the Venue's Keypool's page by navigating to your Network Operator Console->Venues->View/Modify Venue->select the Venue->Keypools.

Enter the SSID for the Keypool, and select if the Keypool is [Global or Local](https://docs.roamingiq.com/network-administrator-console/network-operator-settings/keypools), then select "Add Keypool."
