Chapter 1

Introduction

What Is in This Chapter

This chapter introduces the SPECTRUM management module covering the

Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Modules described below. It describes the following:

• Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Modules

• SPECTRUM Support

- Accessing SPECTRUM Views from the Device Icon

- Accessing Device-Specific Subviews

• SPECTRUM Views Roadmap

• SPMA Support

Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Modules

The 8H02-16, 2E42-27, 2E42-27R, 2E43-27, and 2E43-27R Fast Ethernet

SmartSwitch Modules are all high performance Ethernet switching devices that provide Fast Ethernet uplinks.

The 8H02-16 is a 16-port device having 14 standard 10Base-T front panel ports that are supported by RJ-45 connectors and two 100Base-TX or multimode fiber 100Base-FX uplinks using Fast Ethernet Port Interface Modules.

The 2E42-27 and 2E42-27R devices expand the capabilities of the 8H02-16 by providing 27 ports including 24 standard Ethernet ports with RJ-45 connectors, two slots for Fast Ethernet Port Interface Modules, and one slot for a High Speed Interface Module to provide a high-speed ATM uplink or

FDDI connectivity. The 2E42-27 has a single power supply and the 2E42-27R has dual redundant power supplies.

9032073 E2

1-1

SPECTRUM Support

The 2E43-27 and 2E43-27R provide the same feature set as the 2E42-27 and

2E42-27R but come equipped with two RJ21 connectors to support 24 ports of switched Ethernet rather than the 24 RJ45’s. This allows the use of Telco cables in the wiring closets with patch panels to reduce the complexity of cable management.

All five devices offer RMON, port redirection, broadcast suppression, and full duplex support on all interfaces, with support for IEEE Auto-Negotiation on the 100Base-TX ports.

SPECTRUM Support

When modeling a device, the model type SS8H appears in the Select Model

Type dialog box. The names listed below refer to the model names used in

SPECTRUM to specify attributes, actions, and associations for Fast Ethernet

SmartSwitch Modules:

• 8H02_16 (Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Module, Model 8H02-16)

• 2E42_27 (Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E42-27)

• 2E42_27R (Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E42-27R)

• 2E43_27 (Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E43-27)

• 2E43_27R (Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch Module, Model 2E43-27R)

Accessing SPECTRUM Views from the Device Icon

Link Error Rate Estimate

The link error rate estimate is a cumulative long-term average of the bit error rate, which represents the quality of the physical link. The link error rate estimate is computed when the port is connected and every 10 seconds thereafter. It ranges from 10 -4 to 10 -15 and is reported as a whole integer. For example, if the port’s link error rate estimate is computed to be 10 -5 , the value reported in this field would be 5, which represents an actual rate of 1,250 bit errors per second. A lower link error rate estimate indicates a higher bit error

rate as shown in Figure 3-1.

Link Error Monitor Count

The aggregate link error monitor count. This count is set to zero on station power up and increments each time the port’s link error monitor detects an error. An increasing link error monitor count usually indicates a problem with the connectors or the cable between this port and the node.

Link Error Rate Cutoff

The link error rate threshold at which a link connection is flagged as faulty and the port disabled by SMT. The default link error rate cutoff threshold is 7, which represents 12.5 bit errors per second.

Interface Remap Application

Interface Remap Application

The name of the model type used to model the application is CtIfRemapApp.

The application provides the ability to map one or more interfaces to another interface. A map is defined by creating a row in the Interface Remap Table

(described below) to specify the source and destination interfaces. When a source interface is remapped to a destination interface, the destination interface transmits all packets received or transmitted on the source interface. Counters on the destination interface increment for all packets

transmitted by normal bridging or due to the interface remap. Figure 5-3

shows a view of the Interface Remap Table.

Access the Interface Remap Table as follows:

1.

Highlight the CtIfRemapApp icon (Icon mode) or text label (List mode).

2.

From the View menu, select Icon Subviews -> Port Remap.

The Interface Remap Table provides the following information:

Number Entries

The number of active entries in the Interface Remap Table.

Physical Errors Enable

Physical error remapping can be Enabled, Disabled, or Unsupported.

Unsupported indicates that the device is incapable of remapping physical errors.

Max Number Entries

The maximum number of entries allowed in the Interface Remap Table.

Sort

Used to sort the Interface Remap Table.

Find

Used to search the Interface Remap Table for a specific interface.

Update

Advertised Ability

These selections indicate the advertised ability of the local hardware. They become active on ports that have Auto-Negotiation enabled. Auto-Negotiation allows the FE-100TX RJ-45 port to self-configure to 10 or 100 Mbps depending on the speed of the attached device. The interfaces can also dynamically configure themselves for full duplex or half duplex (standard mode) operation when both ends of the link support Auto-Negotiation. When only one link partner supports Auto-Negotiation, the mode defaults to half duplex.

Both local and remote management for the Fast Ethernet SmartSwitch

Module provide the ability to disable Auto-Negotiation if desired. A port that does not support Auto-Negotiation will be read as “other” (1).
