10 Using the mbNETFIX in gateway mode
If you use the mbNETFIX in gateway mode, start the device in Bridge mode with
active packet filter.
After booting, both the packet filter and the learning mode are active.
That is, the WAN > LAN and LAN > WAN transitions are blocked.
All pending connection attempts are detected.
Use gateway mode if your network is on the LAN and WAN side of the NETFIX in different
network segments (see graphic above with the IP example addresses).
