Layer 2 Isolation Pepwave Surf SOHO Firmware 7.0.0

If internal firewall rules are used to block inter vlan traffic (Layer 3), devices on the same vlan can talk to each other fine (Layer2).

Does this mean that when the default internal firewall rules are set to “Deny”, all inter-VLAN trafic is blocked?

@MartinLangmaid

Its easier to tick a check box to block traffic to/from a VLAN. You wouldn’t use them at the same time. Firewall rules allow more routing logic granularity.

If I uncheck the option to disable inter-VLAN communication, my understanding is that firewall rules can be defined (I have posted another question on the topic as it does not function as expected).

If I check the option to enable inter-VLAN communication, I assume I can use firewall rules to restrict the flow of traffic to specific hosts.
