LABEL DESCRIPTION
Enable Layer-2
Isolation
Select the Enable Layer-2 Isolation check box to enable layer-2 isolation on the
ZyAIR.
When you select the Enable Layer-2 Isolation check box and save this
configuration screen, the Enable Intra-BSS Traffic check box in the Wireless
configuration screen is cleared. This means that wireless clients connected to the
ZyAIR cannot communicate with one another. This would be appropriate in a
hotspot application, for example, in a hotel where wireless clients can access the
Internet, but cannot communicate with other wireless clients or AP’s.
If you want wireless clients associated with the ZyAIR to be able to communicate
with each other, you must select the Enable Intra-BSS Traffic check box in the
Wireless configuration screen.
