Jtremback | anyone know if it's possible to see the fresno area from the towers on the mountains east of fremont? | 21:17:25 |
Jtremback | also, i'm looking for an inexpensive switch with a few ports where i can set it up so that most ports are only allowed to talk to one other port | 21:32:33 |
Jtremback | as a convenient way to connect more outdoor gear to one router while forcing all traffic to go through the router. | 21:33:47 |
Graham | I don't know of a specific switch but I think the feature you're looking for is switch port isolation | 22:31:34 |
Graham | You can set up a similar config with vlans but switch port isolation probably fits what you're asking for better. Basically just blocks broadcasts from Port to port except the port you specify. | 22:32:35 |
Jtremback | nice. yea just blocking broadcasts would do the trick | 22:42:45 |
Jtremback | yea this could be implemented by making a vlan for each port and adding the "master port" to all of them | 22:43:16 |
Graham | Yeah, but with vlans you'd have to use a different up range on the router for each port | 22:45:51 |
tylerp9p | Unifi/EdgeMax both support this, simple check box for port isolation, then each one is forced through the router/gateway as configured | 22:55:53 |

emunand | hello everyone, i have been thinking of starting my own type of wisp in my home country | 23:28:46 |
Graham | Welcome emunand | 23:29:32 |
emunand | and doing some research, i have some ideas of an alternative to use over ubiquti's products, but i want to check and make sure they are fine before actually applying them to real life | 23:29:32 |
Graham | Sure! | 23:29:42 |
emunand | thanks, Graham | 23:29:44 |
emunand | the products are from OpenMesh, a company that specializes in making mesh networks | 23:30:11 |
emunand | and i am thinking of using this product specifically: | 23:30:44 |
emunand | https://store.openmesh.com/products/access-points/grp-om2p-hs.html | 23:30:57 |
emunand | these little guys can reach up to 500' outdoors and about 150' indoors | 23:31:22 |
hornnswoggle | We've used those business customers, feel free to send me your question | 23:31:26 |
emunand | hornnswoggle: my question is that is this a good idea to use? | 23:32:01 |
hornnswoggle | They are pretty good , would recommend as long as you are familiar with other mesh networking gear because their documentation don't match with their UI lol | 23:32:26 |
