2.5.1Three 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.
