Use “Layer 3 Firewall Rules” on the MX

Go to Security & SD-WAN → Firewall & traffic shaping → Layer 3 firewall rules

Add a rule to block traffic between Wi-Fi VLAN and LAN VLAN:

Policy  Protocol       Source                           Destination          Port/Range

Deny   Any             VLAN 20(Wifi VLAN)     VLAN 10(LAN)        Any

Make sure this rule is above any allow rules, because Meraki applies rules top-down.

This will prevent Wi-Fi clients from reaching LAN devices (including RDP, file shares, etc.)

Then try- Option B: Use “SSID Firewall Rules” on the Wi-Fi SSID

Go to Wireless → Firewall & traffic shaping → SSID firewall rules

Add a rule like:

Policy Protocol Source Destination Port/Range
Deny Any Any Local LAN Any

This isolates Wi-Fi from LAN without affecting LAN-to-LAN routing.

L3 firewall rules are what you need to setup.

You will want to deny rules for your WiFi clients to prevent them communicating with your other clients.

You can apply these rules on the MX, or on the MR SSID. Where you apply these will change how clients can talk to each other.

One thing to note is that L3 rules on the MX don't impact site to site VPN destined traffic. You would instead need to use site to site VPN firewall rules

Have a look at the layer 2 isolation and outbound rules section on the SSID Firewall & traffic shaping page.

Why it's not related to layer 2 how would it make any difference

Because you'd want to isolate clients on the same SSID so they cannot access each other????

We don't have MR we only use MX for firewall can we use group policies to isolate netwrok

So, where you have created the SSIDs.
