a good example is to separate your users and your servers. You don't want
them on the same broadcast domain, so you separate them to facilitate

1) Large number of users at site. Segment network to create seperate

2) Security. Access lists can limit traffic between interfaces. For example:
HR and Finance on Ethernet0 are not accessible to other users on Ethernet1.
