AsantéHub 2072 Network Management Module Installation Guide
Segment Control The AsantéHub 2072 and NetStacker hub provide two discrete network segment interconnections.That is, any AsantéHub 2072 or NetStacker module, including the AH2072 NMM, can be con- nected to Segment 1, Segment 2, or neither segment (isolated). Segment connection assignment for any module can be done through NMM front panel controls or with AsantéView software.
The NMM has two

Continuing with this example, Network A is an administration/fac- ulty network and Network B is a
