Note
This WBM page is only available in access point mode.
When should Inter AP blocking be used?
The clients connected to an access point can normally communicate with all devices of the
cabled layer 2 network.
With inter AP blocking, the communication of the clients connected to the access point can be
restricted. Only the devices whose IP addresses are configured in "Allowed Addresses" on the
access point are accessible to the clients. Communication with other nodes in the network is
therefore prevented.
Description
The page contains the following box:
● Update interval [s]
Enter the update interval for the ARP resolution of the allowed IP addresses. The resolved
MAC addresses are displayed under "Information > Security > Inter AP Blocking".
