HI,
Thanks for updates.
If you only want them to access the internet, you can refer to my
suggestion below:
1. As SBS standard edition, we have no control on internet, you can just
set proxy on guest computer's IE, then they can access the internet freely,
the other internal sources such RWW and OWA, they will be denied to access.
2. If you have SBS Premium Edition, by default we only allow the user that
belong to Internet user to access the internet, so I have following
suggestion:
A. You can create a new security group called Visitor, make sure that you
use guest permission for this security group, add all the guest user to
this security group then add the Visitor to be the member of Internet user
group,
( To complete this, you can right click the security group, choose
properties, then navigate to "member of " section add the internet user to
the list)
B. You can set a new rule for the security group on ISA to allow the
security group to access internet.
Hope the above information helpful, if you have any further concerns,
please feel free to let me know. I am glad to help you.
Best regards,
Charles Yang (MSFT)
