Model: EAP265 HD  
Hardware Version:
Firmware Version:

Hello,
we have an EAP265HD device. I have question. When I connect the device to our company network and configure wi-fi Guest. Can I rely on that if someone logs in with NB, which will have a virus, ramsomware, or other "pest" on it that they can not get into the internal company network and cannot, for example, encrypt company data?
Is it tru?Can you confirm it? At what level is the internal LAN secured against attacks from the Guest wi-fi interface?

If you have the Guest WiFi enabled (client isolation enabled) and a user connects to this WiFi, then ACLs will stop them from getting access to any other clients; this includes your servers.

 

However this would be the most basic of filtering / control and really should not be used alone.   If you have security concerns at all you should be implementing a full configuration with Gateway, Switch and EAP controls all managed centrally.   On top of that solid AV / LanGuard protection on your servers.

At a basic level, this will achieve what you are after.   However I would not class this as a "secure" solution, its the very least you should be doing and should be implemented as part of a complete solution.
