|
|
Hi all
is it a way to use Client Isolation on our network with exceptions.
I'm living "inside" our hotspot, with client isolation I'm unable to connect to our differents AP.
Actually the only think I can do is using VNC to connect to our server and using it to connect to the AP's.
Any ideas???
best regards

Please try:
1) Set the AP IP to a different subnet compared to other hotspot users.
2) When you need to administer the AP, just statically set an IP (to the same subnet as AP IP) in the client PC.
Note that your AP IP is really for administration only. It does not even have to have an IP for it to function if you are using it as a bridge (i.e. WAN port not used) instead of a router. _________________ ~ Patronsoft Limited ~ |

Hi there
My AP's are part of our topology, I need to access thos AP's while being "inside" the hotspot.
actually client isolation make it impossible. I would like to have a kind of "no-client isolation" using MAC or IP address.
is there a way for this???
best regards

Again, you can just set one of the client to a IP/subnet mask that is the same subnet as AP, then the client can access the AP directly. _________________ ~ Patronsoft Limited ~ |

What u do is this say your network is the 192.168.0.0 type
when u have isolation turned on the dhcp hands out 255.255.255.255 as the subnet to all devices this is not technically a valid subnet, so there for the device can't see anything else. what u do is statically set the routers to ip addresses of the same type. example:
Firstspot Server IP:
192.168.0.1
255.255.255.0
AP1: (Static)
IP: 192.168.0.5
Sub: 255.255.255.0
Gate: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1
AP2: (Static)
IP: 192.168.0.10
Sub: 255.255.255.0
Gate: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1
Admin User: (Static)
IP: 192.168.0.15
Sub: 255.255.255.0
Gate: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1
User: (DHCP)
IP: 192.168.0.50
Sub: 255.255.255.255
Gate: 192.168.0.1
DNS: 192.168.0.1
If you set your network this way, the admin will be able access the APs and STILL have internet connectivity, while customers will be dynamically set to the 255.255.255.255 subnet, and rendering them incapable of seeing any other devices. Be sure to add all the static IP Addresses to the dhcp exception list. |

set your ip not by dhpcp
select 192.168.0.50
and the netmask 255.255.255.0
then you avoid the isolation, but clients who know this too. |
