You can deploy Lab Management in one of three modes -- Direct-Access Deployment, Isolated-Access Deployment, or
Mixed-Access Deployment. Direct-Access deployment is strongly recommended.
Direct-Access deployment of Lab Management
In a Direct-Access deployment each Client node is directly accessible from the corporate network without going through the Lab Management Manager.
Isolated-Access deployment of Lab Management
In an Isolated-Access Deployment, each Client node is on a Network Address Translation (NAT) network behind its Lab Management Manager.
Mixed-Access deployment of Lab Management
Mixed-Access deployment is the most flexible of the three deployment types. The Client nodes are accessible from outside the Lab Management environment, that is, they are generally available to your entire company. The benefit of this deployment type is that Lab Management still manages it.
