A) HotSpot Only

The HotSpot feature cannot be used with the standard proxy feature because it will lock all ports for unregistered users.
An Artica license allows you to use 2 servers so you can use a Standard Artica server for your employees and an Artica HotSpot for your guest users.

B) 2 Network interfaces

The hotSpot system is designed to ban all network connections until users have not been registered on the system.
To achieve this approach,  a physical break is generated between two network cards.

We assume that you have already setup the 2 network interfaces settings trough Artica

C) Different Network !Important

You must have a different subnet between the WAN network and the LAN network.
For example if your WAN interface is 10.1.1.0 set the LAN (guest network ) to 192.168.5.0
