F. IP Network Addressing Scenarios
F-6
February 2001 3160-A2-GB21-90
Scenario 5
Figure F-5, Multiple COM Ports Connected to Different NMSs, illustrates multiple
COM ports on the same carrier connected to different NMSs. This might be used
in service-provider applications, where some of the carrier's circuit cards (and their
remotes) are managed by one NMS and other cards are managed by a different
NMS. In this example, each card and remote is on a separate subnet. Also, note
that each LAN Adapter connection is on a different subnet. The subnet mask is
FF.FF.FF.00. The NMS hosts would only need routes added for the subnets that
they are to manage.
