Single vs. separate TLAN and ELAN subnets
ATTENTION
IMPORTANT!
Nortel recommends that separate TLAN and ELAN subnets be used for the
IP Trunk 3.01 (and later) voice and management networks (TLAN and ELAN
subnets).
Separate subnets implies the following:
•
separate TLAN and ELAN network interface groups into respective
Virtual LANS (VLANs) or connect them to separate Layer 2 switches
•
two default gateway routers (can be the same physical Layer 3 router)
For traffic reasons, use separate subnets for nodes consisting of multiple
ITG-Pentium 24-port trunk cards and Media Card 32-port trunk cards.
Refer to the Engineering Guidelines sections
separate subnets for voice and management" (page 155)
and
subnet option for voice and management" (page 157)
.
If the single subnet option is selected, the ELAN subnet is used for the
voice and management network and all voice and management data goes
through the 10BaseT ELAN network interface (lnIsa0) on the motherboard
of the IP trunk card.
