Station Isolation - Avaya WLAN 8100 Series Reference

Station Isolation

Station isolation prevents traffic from one wireless client inadvertently reaching another
wireless client on the same mobility VLAN. Station isolation is configured on a per network
basis. When this feature is enabled on the network, wireless clients can only communicate
with devices in a different subnet through the gateway. Traffic that is not destined to the
gateway gets filtered by the AP.
Station Isolation is especially useful in environments such as a hotel or public hot spots.
Important:
Station isolation is supported in both the Overlay and Unified Access deployments.
The following sections describe enabling Station Isolation using the Avaya CLI.
