There are two links between the 3746 and the MAE:
1. A serial link which is mandatory between the Switch Interface Extender (SIE)
card in the 3746 and the Switch Adapter Card (SAC) card in the MAE.
2. A Token-Ring link which is optional:
¹
If there is no APPN
traffic between the 3746 and the MAE, the TR link is
not required.
¹
To support APPN traffic between the MAE and the 3746-9X0 you can
have:
– One link: TIC3 - 8228 - MAE.
– Or two links can be used to optimize the thruput from the MAE to the
3746-9X0 (the two TIC3s can be plugged on two different TRPs).
