Whitelist

Within CNM, when pulling up the meetinghouse network, I’m presented with two different whitelists to add devices to: IOT and NoSplash.

Is anyone familiar with either the functional and/or management differences between adding a printer or smart TV to one whitelist vs the other??

Thanks.

IOT means adding it to the IOT "zone". It might have some access to the internet, but it won't be on the "Public" internet.

NoSplash means that device will not be presented with the User Agreement splash screen to be able to get to the internet when using Liahona. Supposedly, if all communication is stickily local, you shouldn't have to add the printer, but I suspect the NoSplash is needed if the printer has to reach the internet for any reason.

Note NoSplash isn't needed if you're connecting the printer via the wired network.

Okay, so if it meets the criteria of an IoT device as outlined in https://tech.churchofjesuschrist.org/wi ... nnect_SSID, those also need whitelisted in the IOT policy in CNM... but everything else that doesn't meet the IOT guidance but still can't realistically agree to the Liahona AUP should be listed in NoSplash - is that correct?

Yes, that sounds correct. I wouldn't worry too much about the IOT network. I'm sure some day it might come in handy, but I've never used it due to the low (5 MHz) bandwidth.

BTW, the NoSplash is limited to 10 devices per building, so I suggest using it only if really needed.

So far, I've only seen the A/C system on IOT.

This has been very helpful. Thank you, everyone.
