
Regardless of whether the VLAN 1 Conductor is inside or outside of the cluster, all
NIONS in the cluster that are in VLAN 2 will be getting their clock from XDAB and
cannot receive their clock from an outside Conductor. This would create a clocking
conflict.

Therefore, the Conductor for VLAN 2 must be located within the XDAB cluster, as
shown.
Scenario 7 - Network with VLAN and XDAB
This scenario is a variant of the previous scenario (on page 56).

The Conductor for VLAN1 is outside the XDAB cluster. This will still work.

The CobraNet interface in the XDAB master will sync to the Conductor outside the
cluster. That clock will become the XDAB master clock. XDAB and VLAN 1 will be in
sync.
However, the Conductor for VLAN 2 must still remain within the cluster because all
XDAB slaves in a cluster will receive their clock from XDAB and not from CobraNet.
 Placement of VLAN 2's Conductor outside the cluster will cause the XDAB clock and
externally sourced VLAN 2 CobraNet clock to be in conflict.
Scenario 8 - Network with VLAN and two XDAB clusters
This scenario is a variant of the previous scenario (on page 57), but contains more than one
XDAB cluster.
