14. Q: Some of my guests wish to play a network game, or share files and folders. But
that does not work. How come that the connected guest computers cannot
communicate with each other?
A: That is because by default Layer 3 Client Isolation is activated. You need to
disable it to allow network communication between the connected guest computers.
See question 12.
15. Q: Can I access the administrator menu of GuestGate from one of the guest ports?
A: No. For security reasons this is not possible. Access to the administrator menu
can only be gained through the host port.
16. Q: Can I access any guest computer from the host network?
A: No. Opening ports to connected computer, as you can do with any standard
router (virtual server / port forwarding), is not possible with GuestGate for security
reasons.
17. Q: Can I open ports in GuestGate to allow access to a connected guest computer?
A: No, that is not possible. See the previous question.
18. Q: On the status page of the Web administration interface the time is displayed as
“(not available)”, why?
A: GuestGate cannot access the pool time servers on the Internet and is therefore
unable to receive a valid system time. The most likely cause for this problem is that
a Firewall located in the Host network may be blocking outgoing Network Time
Protocol (NTP) requests. The system administrator must open the ports required for
this service (port 123 for both TCP and UDP).
It is important to take care of this problem, especially if you use the “Time /
Scheduler” function to control, when Internet access is allowed.
19. Q: Does the bandwidth control limit the bandwidth per computer, or does it limit the
bandwidth GuestGate can consume in total?
A: The bandwidth control limits to bandwidth that GuestGate can use, regardless of
how many guest users are connected to the device.
