**_hellow my friends
i did an experiment about forwarding and authintication in mikrotik wireless .i did this on one of my client user
1- if i do like the image down .that user cannot connect to my wireless network at never…
2-if i do like the image down .that user can connect to my wireless network and run internet !!!
so in which case exactly we use/do not use forwarding mode ?
can some one give me an idea

Check your knowledge with http://wiki.mikrotik.com/wiki/Manual:Interface/Wireless
authentication (yes | no; default: yes) - whether to accept or to reject this client when it tries to connect
forwarding (yes | no; default: yes) - whether to forward the client’s frames to other wireless clients
Yep that is how it is suppose to work. Turning forward off prevents wireless client to client communication (isolation).
Turning forward off prevents wireless client to client communication (isolation).
so the forwarding concept=isolation client concept
but what is the aim of isolation
More security!!!
For e.g in untrusted wireless network like a wireless network in Airport (or public places), the users should be secure from sniffers and so on . . .
you mean that that user will be save from hacking by forwarding=on
not on. It has yes or no option, forwarding=no (in CLI) or don’t use it(check) in winbox 
sorry i mean forwarding = no
but do you think that if we disable forwarding function . the clients are really will be unable to communicate with themself!!!
Why would they not be able to communicate with themselves? That makes no sense.
As I said before, It is useful for Public network like Air Port, Shopping center and these public places that we don’t know what kind of users come in and we don’t use security Devices like firewall and UTMs. It would be a cost effective security option. BTW it’s my opinion and may experts have difference idea!
Haha I know what it does. His comment made absolutely no sense.
