Installing Module Into Smartswitch 6000, Matrix E7 Or Matrix N7 Chassis - Enterasys Matrix 7H4382-25 Hardware Installation Manual

Installing Module into SmartSwitch 6000, Matrix E7 or Matrix N7 Chassis

Example 5
Shows chassis slots 1 and 5 populated with 6x1xx, 6x2xx modules, respectively; slots 2
through 4 with DFE‐Platinum modules without a bridging module; and slots 6 and 7 with
6x3xx modules.
In this module arrangement, the 6x1xx and 6x2xx modules in slots 1 and 5 can only
communicate with each other, because there is no 6x3xx module in one of the first five
slots to serve as the proxy bridge to communicate with the 6x3xx modules in slots 6 and 7.
The 7x4xxx DFE‐Platinum modules in slots 2, 3, and 4 will operate under one IP address.
Since there is no bridging module, the DFE‐Platinum modules will not communicate with
any other modules in the chassis.
Rule: In this example, there must be at least one 6x3xx series module, and a 7H4382‐25
bridging module in slots 1 through 5 to enable communications between all generations of
modules in the chassis.
Example 6
The module arrangement in this example is similar to the one shown in Figure
described in Example 5. The only difference is that a 7H4382‐25 bridging module is
installed in slot 2, enabling all modules to communicate with each other.
Rule:
five‐to‐seven slot proxy bridge. The 6x3xx does not serve as a proxy bridge in this
configuration because the 7H4382‐25 is in a slot with a lower number. You can use the
7H4382‐25 as a bridging module depending on the need.
Installing Module into SmartSwitch 6000, Matrix E7 or
Matrix N7 Chassis
To install a DFE‐Platinum module into an SS6000, Matrix E7 or Matrix N7 chassis,
proceed directly to "Preparation" on page 3‐7 to start the installation process.

In this example, the 7H4382‐25 serves as both the FTM1‐to‐FTM2 bridge and the
Caution: Failure to observe static safety precautions could cause damage to the
DFE-Platinum module. Follow static safety handling rules and wear the antistatic wrist
strap.
Do not cut the non-conductive bag to remove the module. Sharp objects contacting the
board or components can cause damage.
Precaución: Si no toma las medidas de seguridad necesarias para evitar descargas de
electricidad estática, es posible que el módulo se dañe. Siga los consejos de seguridad
para la manipulación del producto y no olvide utilizar la pulsera antiestática.
No corte la bolsa antiestática para sacar el módulo. Tenga en cuenta que si algún objeto
cortante entra en contacto con la placa o con los componentes, éstos podrían dañarse.
