The problem
Access-control controllers are infrastructure devices and can benefit from network separation.
Recommended approach
Use a dedicated VLAN or controlled subnet where the network design supports it, with only the management traffic that is required.
Step-by-step checklist
- Identify controller IPs.
- Create the security zone.
- Allow required management traffic.
- Block unnecessary access from user networks.
- Test software and door operation.
