Preventing mutual visibility of extensions |
In a LAN or WLAN, all extensions at the IP level are connected to each other. This must naturally be prevented in a Hotspot system.
Here, only one bintec RS353xw™ is employed as HotSpot gateway. All users are exclusively logged in over WLAN. Wired LAN is not used. Internet access is provided via a local network or ADSL.
Hotspot with a single WLAN access point
To prevent internal communication between Hotspot users (WLAN clients), in the menu
Wireless LAN ->
WLAN -> Radio Settings ->
, the parameter
Intra-cell Repeating must be disabled.
Here, several WLAN access points connected over LAN with the bintec RS353xw™ gateway are employed. Internet access is provided via a local network or ADSL.
Hotspot with multiple WLAN access points
To prevent visibility between Hotspot users (WLAN clients) for all WLAN workstations in the menu
Wireless LAN ->
WLAN -> Radio Settings ->
, the parameter
Intra-cell Repeating must be disabled. Further, a specific VLAN
must be created for each WLAN access point to prevent internal communication between extensions logged into the various
access points.
Here, several Hotspot users are connected to the Hotspot gateway over a LAN. Internet access is provided via a local network or ADSL.
Hotspot with Ethernet LAN client
A Hotspot user's PC is connected to a VLAN-capable switch. Here, each physical port of the switch has its own VLAN.
