How to prevent network sharing?
-
Hi all
I have seen a characteristic in some access-points and it was Client Isolation. Its very nice for security and make every computer save and prevent virus from spreading and destroy network. -
Are you asking if pfSense supports the feature of client isolation for wireless?
Did you look at the options you get when configuring a wireless interface?
(Hint: Read the description of the option "Allow intra-BSS communication" ) -
sorry for confusion
but i dont mean it in wirless. i want this Prevention in wired network. i connect client to server by switches not wireless and nead to close network sharing to prevent many things like virus from transfering- spying - isolate the problems
(i just mention it im wirless to show my piont) -
Not understanding. How do you keep one host on a LAN from seeing other hosts? Yes, you can do it, but it can get very complicated and expensive.

use more nic's on your pfsense box ;) and have them configured each for different gateways, subnets, and smaller group of computers. do not bridge any of them. and if you are an administrator, install on each computer a robust firewall, antivirus, and internet security software.
