The following shows how the Management Modes can be used to secure and isolate the management traffic.
In the following scenario, the remote multiplexer has set the trunk Ethernet to "Inband". All three Ethernet
ports, LAN1, LAN2, and SNMP can be used by the remote users for aggregate traffic. No remote user is
able to access the SNMP management interface.
The local multiplexer has configured the trunk Ethernet to "Outband(All Port)". In this way any local
(trusted) user on any of the three Ethernet ports can connect to the remote user and to both the local and
remote SNMP interface.
