LAN 2 can only be used as private network to the IRC5 controller.
Isolated LAN 3 or LAN 3 as part of the private network (only for RobotWare 6.01 and later)
The default configuration is that LAN 3 is configured as an isolated network. This
allows LAN 3 to be connected to an external network, including other robot
controllers. The isolated LAN 3 network has the same address limitations as the
WAN network.

An alternative configuration is that LAN 3 is part of the private network. The ports
Service, LAN 1, LAN 2, and LAN 3 then belong to the same network and act just
as different ports on the same switch. This is configured by changing the system
parameter Interface, in topic Communication and type Static VLAN, from "LAN 3"
to "LAN". See Technical reference manual - System parameters.

Note
The isolated LAN 3 cannot be used to connect to any HMI device (RobotStudio,
Robot Web Services, or PC SDK client) since it does not support the protocol
needed for communication.
Note
If isolated LAN 3 network is selected, then it may not be possible to use
Connected Services on LAN 3 port, depending on which fieldbus protocol is used
(EtherNet/IP or PROFINET).

Note
With this alternate configuration it is possible to use Connected Services on LAN
3 as the network is not isolated to one fieldbus protocol.
