Select the network connection mode corresponding to the physical wiring as shown on the screen.
Separate networks
The BAN is separated from external networks (internet access) by the gateway. In this mode, any of the LAN ports (1A/1B on Connect X200/X500 or X1P1 on Connect X300) is connected to the BAN and the WAN port to the internet.
In separate networks mode, the WAN and LAN must be connected to different networks. The same subnet range on the WAN and LAN sides is not allowed.
Combined network
The BAN is sharing a physical network with internet connectivity. In this mode, any of the LAN ports (1A/1B on Connect X200/X500 or X1P1 on Connect X300) is connected to the shared network and the WAN port is not used.
For security level 2 compliance, only the separate networks configuration is admissible. To claim SL-2 compliance on Connect X300, the device needs to be at least on EdgeOS version 5.0.10.
The indicators Cloud connection and Registration state now show Online and Operational, respectively. The SVC LED on the device turns steady red.
After selecting the network mode, it can only be changed by first performing Maintenance > Reset configuration or a factory reset.
