Wireless clients accessing LAN - Allow or Deny ?

 Hello

 

 I have the following network configuration:

 

1. Ubiquity Dream Machine Pro (Router \ Firewall)

2. Meraki MR46 AP x3

3. Meraki MS120 x2

 

Some users use laptops and connect to the WiFi, while others are with workstations and connected via LAN cable.

If I want users in both WiFi & LAN networks to be able to access each other devices (RDP \ SSH \ CIFS, etc) 

Do I need to "Allow" the rule?

 

WiFi & LAN users reside on the same VLAN (Native VLAN configured in the Ubiquity); it could be tricky to configure VLANs on the Dream Machine Pro and have it fully compatible with the Meraki AP (or isn`t it?)

 

I`m afraid users can access the Switches and APs from their devices..

So, I guess there isn't a choice but to create VLANs for the AP & Switches (e.g., VLAN 10 & VLAN 11) and additional vlan for the users.

 

Help would be appreciated.

 

Thank you!
