New features on firmware update 1.2.7 for XE75 PRO

Hi all,
Just updated my XE75 Pro to latest firmware (shown as available in the app). Firmware is 1.2.7 Build 20231011 Rel. 71327.
Noticed it has two new features (amongst others) called "Network Isolation" and "IoT Network".
As best I can tell selecting devices for "Network Isolation" prevents them from communicating with other devices on the network and allows them access to internet only. Seems like a great idea for IoT devices.
The "IoT Network" seems to allow creation of a new network (like a second Guest network?) which has individual username and password for placing IoT devices on.
Can someone confirm my definition for those new features? They seem to cover basically the same areas of preventing your IoT devices as being an entry point into attacking your network. If so, which would be the best way to go? Perhaps you're meant to use both methods for IoT devices?
Looking for any thoughts on this.
Thanks for the link and other info. Seems like the simplest way to isolate the IoT devices is to assign them "Network Isolation". I don't really need to assign them their own network as I don't think I need the "lesser" security protocols or needs to limit their bandwidth etc as is afforded by that feature.
