    By design, in order to restrict the Guest clients' communication between each other, "deny inter user bridging" is enabled for Guest Network.

    Benefits of enabling "deny inter-user-bridging"

    • When inter-user bridging is denied, the clients can connect to the Internet but cannot communicate with each other.
    • It prevents the forwarding of Layer 2 traffic between wireless users in the same Network.
    • This prevents any Rogue Guest User to take advantage of the Open Network.

    Note: This knob is enabled by default in Guest Network. It is not possible to enable it for the Employee Network.
