This article discusses how a laptop with the Umbrella Roaming Client or AnyConnect with the Roaming Security Module behaves when under a guest protected network (in other words, when the laptop uses a network registered to another Umbrella organization).

Behavior

In most cases when an Umbrella roaming client visits another organization or a guest protected network, the roaming client is set to remain active and can honor the policies of its home organization. However, there are caveats:

If the roaming client is part of its home organization default policy (with lower priority or policy number 0), the roaming client can then use the policy of the guest organization due to it being in a higher policy. For more information regarding policy precedence, please read the Umbrella documentation: Policy Precedence
