Procedure to configure 2-Networks mode

Figure 4-24 shows an RMC supporting daisy-chain connection to a couple of XIOs. While physical
connections are the same as for 1 Network mode, the logical networks resulting from this mode are
not the same. Port E1 and E2 are each associated with a different network [E1 LAN (5) and E2 LAN
(6) in the callout]. The XIOs connected on RMC port E2 are no longer part of the network associated
with RMC port E1. Each of the RMC Ethernet interfaces requires an IP address on a different subnet.
The figure shows generic IP addresses for each of the RMC Ethernet interfaces in two different subnets
("ZZZ" for E1 and "AAA" for E2).
IMPORTANT NOTE: The XIOs daisy-chained to RMC-E2 (6) are in 4-port switch mode and
therefore each require a single IP address on the same subnet ("AAA"). For additional information
on configuration for different XIO modes, refer to the Network Communications Guide or the XIO
User manual. See
