C H A P T E R Introducing the MGX 8850 Switch This chapter contains a brief outline of the features of the Cisco MGX 8850 switch. An illustration of the AC-powered version of the switch appears in Figure 2-1.
It maps all the service traffic to and from ATM by using standardized interworking methods. When the MGX 8850 switch operates as a feeder, it uses a single port to communicate the aggregated traffic over an ATM interface with an MGX 8850 or BPX 8600-series switch.
DC or an AC source. MGX 8850 Cards The MGX 8850 switch supports two types of card sets: the core cards (or core modules) and service modules. The Processor Switching Module (PXM) and optional Service Resource Module (SRM) are core cards.
Page 40
2.048-Mbps structured or unstructured synchronous data stream. • Route Processor Module (RPM) The RPM is a Cisco 7200-series router redesigned as a double-height card. Each RPM uses two single-height back cards. The back-card types are: single-port Fast Ethernet, four-port Ethernet, and single-port (FDDI).
MGX 8850 Management MGX 8850 Management To give you access for control purposes, the MGX 8850 switch supports high and low-level user interfaces. You can use the Cisco WAN Manager application (formerly StrataView Plus) for connection management, the CiscoView application for hardware configuration, and a command line interface for low-level control of hardware functionality and connection control.

New Modules Specific for Release 1.0 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...
This chapter describes the steps to take and the considerations you should keep in mind prior to installing the modules in an open rack. It also contains information that applies to an MGX 8850 installation in a Cisco closed rack. If the switch arrives in a Cisco closed rack, your initial concerns would be the cabinet grounding, power connections, and optional seismic stability plate.
• Space The MGX 8850 node requires a floor area 19.9 inches (50.5 cm) wide or 23 inches wide (59 cm.). Sufficient clearance around the cabinet must exist for access to the front and back of the cabinet while the door is open. The suggested clearance is 30 inches at the front and back and a nominal 12 inches on each side.
20A, 2-pole AC circuit breaker with a long trip-delay at each branch circuit. The MGX 8850 nodes use a 20A, 2-pole circuit breaker for each AC input. The manufacturer of this circuit breaker is ETA, and the ETA part number for the circuit breaker is 8340-F120-P1P2-B2H020A.
As recommended in these documents, a frame bonding connection is provided on the Cisco cabinet for rack-mounted systems. To see how to make a connection, see “Making the Frame Bonding (Ground) Connection” later in this chapter.
To set up the Cisco cabinet with the stability plate, perform the following: Use the dimensions in Figure 3-2 to drill the holes for installing the stability plate. Step 1 Remove the stability plate from the base of the Cisco cabinet. Save these nuts and bolts. Step 2 Step 3 With the user-provided anchoring bolts, attach the stability plate to the floor.

Appendix A, “System Specifications.” Introduction The MGX 8850 switch ships either pre-installed in a Cisco closed rack or in separate pieces for installation in an open rack. Most of the instructions in this chapter apply to an open rack installation.
Each module has flanges that serve as the front mounting brackets in a 19-inch rack. For a 23-inch rack, Cisco Systems provides special brackets. The 19-inch rack version appears in Figure 4-1. You can attach the enclosure modules to the mounting rails at the following points on the enclosure modules: •...
This section describes how to install the mandatory and optional modules that make up the enclosure of the MGX 8850 switch. For open rack installations, Cisco advises you to remove the cards and AC power supplies before installing the switch, so this section also contains the steps for removing and installing these items.
Mounting the MGX 8850 Modules If you use a power-screwdriver, do not use it on any of the captive screws. Caution When moving a Cisco-supplied cabinet, do not push the cabinet at its sides. Instead, grip Caution its front or back edges.
Removing a Back Card Removing a Back Card A screw at the top and bottom of the faceplate of each back card (or line module or port adapter) secures the card in its backplane connector. The extraction levers let you pull the card from the backplane connector after you loosen the screws.
Figure 4-5 AC Power Supply Installing the Enclosure Modules Using the guidelines at the beginning of “Mounting the MGX 8850 Modules” in this chapter, install each component according to the steps in this section. Step 1 If this node requires the brackets for 23-inch rack, attach them to the enclosure modules.
Installing the Enclosure Modules For a DC-powered system, install the DC-PEMs at the back of the air intake module. If Step 3 you install only one DC-PEM, install it on the right. (See Figure 4-7 and Figure 4-8.) Figure 4-7 DC-PEM Figure 4-8 DC-PEMs Installed in Back of the Air Intake Module...
Fiber optic cabling and copper cabling take different paths on the cable manager. Use the Note cable channels for the copper cabling, but run the fiber optic cables over the sheet metal portion. Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...
Installing the Fan Power Cabling Figure 4-11 Cable Management Assembly at Back Enclosure Installing the Fan Power Cabling The fans receive power off the backplane by way of a fan power cable. To reach the backplane connector, the fan power cable D-connector passes through an outer hole at the base of the card cage. At the fan-tray end of the cable, the D-connector plugs into J1—the only connector at the back of the fan power tray.
Do not use a power screw driver. For the mandatory fan tray, position its power cable to run through the channel formed by Step 4 the mounting bracket on the right. 4-10 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...
From left to right, the first and third access holes are for system power. See Figure 4-16 for an AC-powered system and Figure 4-17 for a DC-powered system. 4-12 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...

Insert the D-connector without the frame in J1 on the power assembly Step 5 Tighten the captive screws only enough to secure the connector. Do not use a power screw driver. 4-14 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...
Tighten the clamp. Step 3 Cisco can provide AC power cords with the following types of AC wall plugs: 20 A NEMA Note L620, 3-prong plug (domestic U.S.), 13 A 250 VAC BS1363, 3-prong fused plug (UK, Ireland), CEE 7/7 (Continental Europe), AS3112 (Australia and New Zealand), and CEI23-16/VII (Italy).
SRMs occupy these reserved slots. Additionally, upper slots 9 and 10 and lower slots 25 and 26 do not have a special bus for the bulk distribution feature. For this reason, Cisco recommends that if the switch contains RPMs, the first two RPMs go in slots 9 and 10.
Redundancy for Service Modules Redundancy for Service Modules Service modules can have either 1:1 redundancy or 1:N redundancy. For information on installation requirements, refer to the section titled “Service Resource Module” in this chapter. For configuration steps, see the section for the SRM in Chapter 6, “Card and Service Configuration.” For instructions on how to use the CiscoView application to configure redundancy, refer to the CiscoView user-documentation.
Automatic Protection Switching (APS). Note that APS is available for only the “B” models of the OC-3 and OC-12 uplink cards. For descriptions of switch configuration tasks, see Chapter 5, “Configuring the MGX 8850 Switch.” For descriptions of how to modify partitioning, specify APS, and add UNI-port connections, see Chapter 6, “Card and Service Configuration.”...
User Interface Card for PXM Making External Clock Connections If external equipment or a local digital central office is to provide synchronization to the MGX 8850 node, you can connect the external clock source to the PXM-UI back card. For a T1 clock input, connect the source to the RJ 45 connector labeled “T1 Clock.”...
Separate visual and audible alarm outputs are available for major and minor alarm outputs. The MGX 8850 alarm outputs are available from a DB15 connector on the PXM-UI back card faceplate. Refer to Appendix B, “Cabling Summary,” for the pinouts on this connector. Use switchboard cable for running these connections.
The intermediate reach OC-12 back card appears in Figure 4-22. For specifications on this card, refer to Appendix A, “System Specifications.” Note that Automatic Protection Switching (APS) requires the “B” model—an SMFIR-1-622/B.

Redundancy for Frame Service Modules Redundancy for Frame Service Modules FRSMs can have either 1:1 redundancy or 1:N redundancy. For 1:1 redundancy, a Y-cable is necessary. The very high speed MGX-FRSM-2CT3, MGX-FRSM-2T3E3, and MGX-FRSM-HS2/B use Y-cable redundancy. For 1:N redundancy, an MGX-SRM-3T3/B and no Y-cabling are required. Differences may exist in the way the MGX-SRM-3T3/B supports redundancy for a particular T1 or E1 configuration.
For configuration requirements, see the section on the SRM in Chapter 6, “Card and Service Configuration.” For instructions on how to use the CiscoView application to configure redundancy, refer to the CiscoView user-documentation. 4-44 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...

Service Resource Module Service Resource Module This section describes how installing a Service Resource Module-3T3 (MGX-SRM-3T3/B) can impact the installation of the service modules it supports. The MGX-SRM-3T3/B (or “SRM” for brevity) can provide 1:N redundancy for the T1 and E1 cards and bulk distribution for T1 cards. It has no communication with higher speed service modules, such as the MGX-FRSM-2CT3 and MGX-FRSM-HS2/B.
Service Resource Module When you replace the failed card, you must switch back to normal operation because the node Note does not automatically do so. Figure 4-43 MGX-SRM-3T3/B Card Set 4-50 Cisco MGX 8850 Installation and Configuration, Release 1.1.10, Part Number 78-6186-03...
Figure 4-44 Routing Data Cables at the Cooling Assembly Initial Start-up of the MGX 8850 Switch Before applying power to the MGX 8850 switch, check the following items: Switch has proper grounding. AC or DC power sources are correctly installed.
Converting Single-Height Slots to Double-Height Slots Converting Single-Height Slots to Double-Height Slots The wiring on the Cisco MGX 8850 backplane requires you to consider the conversion sequence and other details when you convert single-height slots to double-height slots. One slot conversion means that you convert four single-height slots to two double-height slots.
Page 105
Install the double-height front card and back cards as needed. A simpler situation exists when you install a new MGX 8850 switch in a non-Cisco rack or an existing Cisco cabinet: just unscrew the center guide module and remove it. Install a blank faceplate where you do not fill a double-height slot with a double-height card unless the enclosure has the optional front door.

C H A P T E R Card and Service Configuration This chapter describes how to configure the MGX 8850 cards and the services they support. Although the presumption for this chapter is that a plan exists for your network, it reviews some of the information that supports network planning.
A management connection is an inband IP connection that lets a workstation control a local or remote MGX 8850 switch through a service module rather than the Ethernet port on a PXM-UI. Although the rules include references to CLI syntax, they also apply to the Cisco WAN Manager application.

PXM as 0. Rules for Adding Three-Segment Connections A three-segment connection consists of a local segment on each MGX 8850 switch at the edges of the network cloud and a middle segment across the network cloud. The MGX 8850 requirements are: For MGX 8850 feeders, the backbone must consist of BPX 8600-series switches.
A management connection lets a workstation connected through a router control either the local MGX 8850 node or a remote MGX 8850 node that has no workstation. The typical configuration has the connecting router feed an AUSM/B, FRSM, RPM, or PXM UNI port.

Adding and Configuring Connections on the AUSM/B You can add and modify connections through the Cisco WAN Manager or the CLI. Refer to applicable documentation if you use the WAN Manager application. This section describes how to add an ATM connection through the CLI according to the rules for adding a standard connection or a management connection in the form of either a DAX con or a three-segment connection.
Page 133
Adding and Configuring Connections on the AUSM/B On the CLI of the AUSM/B: Execute the addcon command. Step 1 When you add a connection with addcon, the system automatically assigns the next available channel number, so addcon does not require it. However, some related commands require a channel number—cnfchanfst, cnfchanq, and cnfupcabr, for example.

Redundancy Support by the MGX-SRM-3T3/B The need for back cards and the choice of bus for redundancy support depends on whether the MGX-SRM-3T3/B must provide bulk distribution: • With bulk distribution, the T1 service modules do not use back cards. The MGX-SRM-3T3/B uses the distribution bus to support redundancy.
Bit Error Rate Testing Through an MGX-SRM-3T3 The MGX 8850 switch can perform a bit error rate test (BERT) on an active line or port. This type of testing disrupts service because a BERT session requires the tested path to be in loopback mode.
Bit Error Rate Testing Through an MGX-SRM-3T3 The MGX 8850 bus structure supports one BERT session per upper or lower bay, so the switch can run a maximum of two sessions at once. When you specify the target slot through the CiscoView application or the CLI, the system determines if a BERT configuration already exists in that bay.

Example screens from the command line interface For detailed descriptions of the connection types, traffic classes, policing, and ATM-related topics, refer to the Cisco BPX 8600 Series Reference, the Cisco WAN Switching System Overview, and the ATM Forum specifications. The node on which addcon executes is the “owner” of the connection. Connection ownership is important because automatic rerouting and preferred routing information is entered on the node that owns the connection.
Before a connection is added, the proposed connection appears on the screen with a prompt for confirmation. After addcon executes, the system software automatically routes the connection.

The columns in Table D-3 indicate the actions involved with each policing type. For descriptions of the traffic types, connection types, and traffic policing, refer to the Cisco BPX 8600 Series Reference and the Cisco WAN Switching System Overview. The preceding flow diagrams help clarify the information in the forthcoming tables.

Adds an ATM link between a hub node and a concentrator such as an MGX 8220, MGX 8850, or IGX 8400-series shelf in a tiered network; an ATM link between a BXM card on a BPX 8600-series node and a label switching controller (LSC) such as a series 7200 or 7500 router; or an ATM link between a BXM card on a BPX 8600-series node and an Extended Services Processor.
Once you “up” a port on the BXM in either trunk or port mode by using either the uptrk or Note upport commands, respectively, you can only “up” the ports in the same mode. Switch Commands That Apply to the MGX 8850 Node D-15...
An IGX node connected to an IGX routing node, which serves as a hub for the IGX/AF. Each MGX 8850 or MGX 8220 feeder has one trunk that connects to the BPX 8600-series or IGX node serving as an access hub. A BPX 8600-series hub can support up to 16 T3 trunks to the interface shelves.
The choices are I for IGX/AF, A for the MGX 8220, P for EPS (Extended Services Processor, a type of Adjunct Processor Shelf), V for VSI, or X for the MGX 8850 node. On an IGX hub, only the IGX/AF is possible, so shelf type does not appear.
