Scenario 4 - Layer 2 Isolation and White List

In the hotel network hotspot applications, if you want to easily control and manage
that client's ability to connect with each other, you can enable the Layer2 Isolation
function to block specific interfaces from communicating with each other. In this
scenario, we have set two client laptops, and an online printer for client use, after
enabling the Layer2 Isolation function. We can prevent the clients from accessing
each other's laptops. And by using a White list, we can also manage the clients as
well as access the online printer.

Client 2's laptop: 172.16.2.0
Goals to Achieve
