Hi, Joe.
What is being discussed in that body of text refers to creating multiple isolated Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) in order to keep traffic communications privatized per network (or robot in this case). This could prevent someone on one robot from spoofing traffic on another robot on the opposing team.

If you're statement that bridging did not work, then yes, there could be another method of security in play. I would have to see the traffic to determine if that is the case and what it may be. 0]

Thanks for the info! I appreciate it. It will be interesting to see their latest whitepaper. I'm sure I'll be asking more questions.
