Good morning, I am also facing some issues with python. We have blocked the IDLE version but computing staff wanted us to deploy MU, as the GUI version didn't offer full functionality. But we found yesterday that students could run programs via cmd by using the python command 'import os'. We have obviously blocked 'Do not allow access to command prompt', but the command will run and then it displays 'command prompt has been blocked by your administrator' which is useless. Therefore I was hoping that @WhiteStar1 or @jthompson could also share a guide about how to to create a VM for use with python, etc? Or if anyone else for that matter has any information it would be much appreciated. Thanks a lot

Thanks for the response here, core switch it is then. Cheers

Good morning all, We are currently in the process of replacing our wireless, and going from a Ruckus management wireless network to a Unifi, as it was a third of the price. I have done most of the setup but looking at setting up ACLs to block particular port traffic between different VLANs. On a Ruckus controller this is all built-in and easy to use, but unsure as to whether this is possible on a Unifi Cloud Key 2. Could anyone advice on this, as I have tried using the 'Firewall and security' section, but it doesn't do anything? Looking online, I have a feeling you need a dream machine or secure gateway to use the firewall features, but any help would be great? Worse case scenario I guess I will have to attempt this on our core switch. Many thanks
