Network Topology Options

The network topology diagrams provided below show how the network components should connect to each other. These diagrams have been designed to be as generic as possible and hence have been simplified. As a result, the diagrams may exclude details specific to a particular type of implementation.

The Enlighted network provides the following three topology options.

1. Manage On-Premise with Independent Gateway Network (DHCP from Manage)
2. Manage On-Premise with Gateways on Customer Network (DHCP from Customer)
3. Manage in the Cloud 

The following table summarizes the various network configurations and supported applications.

In all cases, Manage is not to be addressable outside a local area network.

Network Configuration	Gateway Network	DHCP Provider	Manage Internet Connection	Connected Lighting	BACnet Integration	Space	Location Intelligence (RTLS)
1. Manage on Premise	Independent	Manage	Customer Network
2. Manage on Premise	Customer	Customer	Customer Network
3. Manage in Cloud	Customer	Customer	Customer Network

The network topology diagrams for each of the above options are detailed below.

1. On-Premise Manage with Independent Gateway Network
    (DHCP from Manage)

2. On-Premise Manage with Gateways on Customer Network
    (DHCP from Customer)

3. Manage in the Cloud
