Guest Endpoints
Guest endpoints are endpoints that do not belong to an internal network domain. They
are often visitors who temporarily access your network resources through their portable
computers. Guest endpoints represent a major risk because they are typically outside the
scope of the network security infrastructure. These endpoints are more likely to violate
antivirus policies and introduce security risks to the network.

Guest network deployment scenario
illustrates a segment of an internal network for guest endpoints. A wireless
access point, switch, or hub is connected to the regular port (see
for information about different types of ports). This type of topology ensures that the
device scans all traffic before it leaves the guest network segment and makes isolation of
the guest segment possible in the event of a virus outbreak.
