2.5.1

Three Networks With a Single MMAC-FNB

One of the basic applications of the EMM-E6 is for configuring three
separate networks within one MMAC. This provides you with the
advantages of having three separate networks in one wiring closet, with
full bridging and SNMP management for each network. Figure 2-2
illustrates an example of the three network configuration.

The EMM-E6 as a Multiport Router

An EMM-E6 routing image allows you to set up the module as a multi-
port router. For information on how to upgrade the EMM-E6 to perform
routing functions, and how to configure the EMM-E6 as a multi-port
router, refer to Cabletron Systems’ Router Services Manual or contact
