hrmm honestly, isnt this the same as AP separation on the AP itself?? using say <br><br> option isolate 1 in both openwrt and i believe dd-wrt it essentaily does the same thing if im not mistaken<br><br>though on the other hand i guess i could see it for server based chilli access controllers<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
the basic idea behind the attached patch is the following:<br>
<br>
On a hotspot, normaly you don't want to allow client to client communication (everybody should have access to the internet and be somehow protected from other hotspot users) - especially for the windows dhows.<br>
<br>
This patch adds a new configuration option "noc2c" (no client 2 client communcation). With this option enabled, the DHCP offers supplies a /32 netmask. Doing this would prevent any hotspot client to communcate with anybody, even the default gateway. Therefore it adds a static route for the default gw as an connected route. This prevents (windows) clients doing any broadcasts on the hotspot network and reach any other hotspot client (default gateway must not route any pakets coming from a hotspot client to any other hotspot client). It would be great if somebody could test it with additional clients, Win XP works as expected.<br>
<br>
Any comments on the patch are welcome ;)<br>
<br>
