ABSTRACT:
A network tap device may include a processor, a first network interface responsive to the processor a second network interface responsive to the processor, the second network interface configured to provide wireless network access, and memory accessible to the processor. The memory may include a network access rule. The processor may be operable to permit network traffic to flow between the first network interface and the second network interface based at least in part on network traffic in a network coupled to the first network interface in accordance with the network access rule.
