What is AP Isolation?

AP Isolation is used to protect the device against attacks from other device in the same network. With this function enabled, the device isolates all the connected clients within the same wireless network from each other, which enhances the network security of users. As the picture shown below, with AP Isolation enabled, the two hosts in the same wireless network cannot communicate with each other.

How Do I Configure AP Isolation on Pharos Products?

  • Note: AP Isolation is not available in Client mode.
