Multi-site
The NetRunner Release 3.0 and later, supports multisite operation. Rather
than a simple connection between only two NetRunners, and subsequently an
interconnection between only two LANs, multisite operation supports
distributed LAN topologies, allowing interconnection between multiple
NetRunners (see the example shown in the figure below). In addition,
Integration Routers and NetRunner LAN interfaces may be grouped into
clusters of up to 12, and clusters connected over a common LAN (refer to
Clusters
on page 212) so that both small and large wide area networks are
supported.
Refer to the Integration Router manual for more multisite application
information, such as
Filtering
and
The Spanning Tree
