Ring Network
3DB 23063 ADAA - Rev 004 July 2007
Figure D-11 shows 9500 MXC Nodes in a ring network. All nodes in a 9500
MXC ring must be configured for one of the dynamic routing options, OSPF or
RIP.
Single IP Addressing would normally be used. An exception would be where the
north-bound interface (Node A) must interface with a network which is static
routed. In this instance Node A would be partitioned, as in the Figure D-8
example. Specifically, Interface Addressing would be selected with LINK 1
NMS set for static routing, and LINK 2 NMS and LINK 3 NMS set for dynamic
routing.
