6.4.6.2  Testing the Configuration

Before you allow employees to use the network, you need to thoroughly test 
whether the setup behaves as it should. Take the following steps to do this.

1

Test the 

SERVER_1

 network. 

• Using Alice’s computer and wireless client, and the correct security settings, 

do the following.
Attempt to access Server 

1

. You should be able to do so.

Attempt to access the Internet. You should be able to do so. 
Attempt to access Server 

2

. You should be unable to do so. If you can do so, 

layer-2 isolation is misconfigured.

• Using Alice’s computer and wireless client, and incorrect security settings, 

attempt to associate with the 

SERVER_1

 network. You should be unable to 

do so. If you can do so, security is misconfigured.

• Using another computer and wireless client, but with the correct security 

settings, attempt to associate with the 

SERVER_1

 network. You should be 

unable to do so. If you can do so, MAC filtering is misconfigured.

2

Test the 

SERVER_2

 network. 

• Using Bob’s computer and wireless client, and the correct security settings, do 

the following.
Attempt to access Server 

2

. You should be able to do so.

Attempt to access the Internet. You should be able to do so. 
Attempt to access Server 

1

. You should be unable to do so. If you can do so, 

layer-2 isolation is misconfigured.

• Using Bob’s computer and wireless client, and incorrect security settings, 

attempt to associate with the 

SERVER_2

 network. You should be unable to 

do so. If you can do so, security is misconfigured.

• Using another computer and wireless client, but with the correct security 

settings, attempt to associate with the 

SERVER_2

 network. You should be 

unable to do so. If you can do so, MAC filtering is misconfigured.

If you cannot do something that you should be able to do, check the settings as 
described in 

Section 6.4.6.1 on page 96

, and in the individual Security, layer-2 

isolation and MAC filter profiles for the relevant network. If this does not help, see 
the Troubleshooting chapter in this User’s Guide.
