Out-of-Band Interrupt

Interrupt line is used by the device to inform the host processor that there is pending event or data. Out-of-band interrupt using a separate line is supported as well and is the recommended option. The reason for recommending on the out-of-band interrupt is mainly to remain compatible with some host processors as there are some host processors that do not wake up on in-band interrupts.

In shared transport mode, a single common hardware line can be used to both Wi-Fi and BLE and thus save one pin. The host processor would then have to read a register to determine the IP source of the setup.
