Figure 10 illustrates a network with two physically disjoint Ethernet clouds. Each SmartStack STS16-20RM switch in the configuration has one primary connection to one of the two Ethernet clouds and one secondary connection to the other cloud.
This way redundancy for both Ethernet clouds is provided, while at the same time the traffic load between the Token Ring and Ethernet clouds is split between the two switches.
