13.6 Layer-2 Isolation List
Layer-2 isolation is used to prevent WiFi clients associated with your Zyxel Device from communicating
with other WiFi clients, APs, computers or routers in a network.
In the following example, layer-2 isolation is enabled on the Zyxel Device to allow a guest WiFi client (
A
)
to access the main network router (
B
). The router provides access to the Internet and the network printer
(
C
) while preventing the client from accessing other computers and servers on the network. The client
can communicate with other WiFi clients only if Intra-BSS Traffic blocking is disabled.
Note: Intra-BSS Traffic Blocking is activated when you enable layer-2 isolation.
