Share files between wireless and wired clients

One other quick question... and forgive me if my technical ignorance translates into a stupid question... but I've got one wireless access point working (Sophos AP 30) and my internal network.  Both seem to be configured correctly and can connect to the Internet.  However, because (I presume) they are different subnets (172.16.xx.xx for the AP and 192.168.yy.yy for the internal network), the hosts cant communicate with one another.  Do I want to keep it this way (segregated) for security purposes?  Whats the best way to share files between wireless and wired clients?  I've got Windows 2012 Server running with DNS working fine, but haven't configured AD yet - pretty sure i can get that working but not certain that it will help if 2 sets of hosts are in different subnets... appreciate any direction you can offer.  Cheers!

  • I think Bridge-to-LAN traffic stays in the LAN and doesn't transit the UTM - that the AP sends the traffic directly to other IPs in the same subnet instead of sending the traffic through the tunnel to the UTM.
