Server1/Port 1 and Server2/Port 2 network ports connect to this network.◦
◦ The network is labeled as the MAPI network on each server.
• Replication network
Server 1-Mezz NIC/Port 1 and Server 2-Mezz NIC/Port 1 network ports connect to this
network.
◦
◦ The E5000 Configuration Wizard automatically assigns these static addresses:
Server 1 – 10.0.0.1–
– Server 2 – 10.0.0.2
Use one of the Ethernet cables shipped with the messaging system to connect the replication
ports, as shown in Figure 4 (page 11).
E5500/E5700 Messaging System EMU connection options
The E5500 and E5700 enclosures have more NIC ports than the 5300 Messaging System enclosure,
and provide more network connection options. Figure 6 (page 12) shows the recommended
management network configuration. The Mezz B ports may be used to connect to the EMU, and
while this is the intention, this method of connection is not required.
While alternate network ports can be used for network-based backup or teamed with the MAPI
network, they can also be used for EMU connectivity. As with the E5300 Messaging System system,
the Client/MAPI or Replication network can also be used to establish EM network connectivity to
the servers.
