Clients on the guest network can "see" each other (all services, all protocols). This is not how a guest network should function. Instead, security best practice is clients on a guest network should only be able to see the Internet and nothing more.

Hello,

 

Basically, when Deco works in router mode, the guest network is isolated from the main network, while the clients connected to the guest network can still "see" each other.

 

This will be recorded and forwarded to the related department as a feature request.

 

Thanks.

Hi, This can easily be implemented by using VLAN's and judicious usage of interface device bridge(s). Here is a very important use case: IoT devices should ALWAYS be put onto a guest network. Security in such devices is an afterthought as history has shown time and time again, repeatedly, across major vendors and popular consumer product offerings. A critical piece of mitigating IoT device exploitation is by effectively isolating each device connected to a guest network from each other, including from the main network.
