7.6.2 Using Separate APNs for Data and Management Traffic
Multiple APN Access allows a cellular device to open data sessions with two or more APNs, and then
send data through the APNs simultaneously. If your cellular service provider supports Multiple APN
Access, the Zyxel Device can use this feature to segregate cellular traffic.
Follow the steps below to configure the Zyxel Device to use separate APNs for data and management
traffic.
1 At Network Setting > Broadband > Cellular APN, ensure that the Zyxel Device is connected to two data-
enabled APNs. If your cellular service provider supports this feature, the Zyxel Device will connect to two
APNs automatically.
