Model: Deco M5  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 1.7.3

Deco documentation states, "By default, the Guest network for Deco Networks will automatically isolate the devices from the main network."

 

I switched my iPhone to the Guest network, it appears in the Guest list, but it does not appear in the "Isolated" list.

 

Should it not appear there?

A Guest device is isolated from the main network, without being added into the isolation list.

An "isolated" Guest device will also be isolated from non "isolated" Guest devices.

Hi, welcome to the community.

If the "Device Isolation" is enabled for certain devices whether they are connected to the main/guest/IOT networks, they will appear in the "Isolated" list. Otherwise they are not.

In other words, "Device Isolation" is an independent feature from the Guest network.

Thank you very much and best regards.

  @David-TP  Thank you David. I'm wondering about "guest" devices.

 

The documentation suggests they will be automatically added to the isolation list by the software, that is, without an administrator having to do anything.

  @David-TP  Thanks for the welcome!

 

Yes, it works to MANUALLY add a devce that is already on the Main, Guest, or IOT network to the Isolation list.

 

What I haven't seen happed, is a Guest device AUTOMATICALLY added to the Isolation list when it first joins.
