Applies to: • mbNET • mbNET.rokey from HW:06

Description

  • Without LAN segmentation, all 4 LAN ports of the mbNET are equivalent and assigned to one network. The function acts as a 4-port switch. Data packets are passed between the 4 ports.
  • With LAN segmentation activated, you can configure up to 4 LAN segments and assign them to the 4 LAN ports of the mbNET. Example:
