Chapter 11 Guest DMZ A De-Militarized Zone (DMZ) is a sub-network created between an internal network and an external network, for example, the Internet. The DMZ adds an extra layer of security to the network of an enterprise or organization. You can specify or select whether you want to segregate the guests from accessing your internal network or the external network, that is, the Internet. To apply the Guest DMZ feature for the networks that you create, select the Virtual Controller assigned option in the Client IP Assignment section while creating a network. When this option is selected, the virtual controller creates a private subnet and VLAN for the IAPs and wireless clients. The virtual controller NATs all traffic that passes out of this interface. This eliminates the need for complex VLAN and IP address management for a multi-site wireless network. Layer 2 multicast applications are not supported in the Guest DMZ (virtual controller assigned) networks. In Dell Instant, Guest DMZ performs the following functions: Automatically segregates guest network users and employee or voice network users. Stops guest users from accessing internal network. Auto-NATs guest traffic as it passes from the enterprise network to the Internet. Dell PowerConnect W-Instant Access Point 5.0.3.0-1.1.0.0 | User Guide Guest DMZ | 89
