New Command
The Alpine 3802 has three modes of switch operation. You can use the
extended | standard}
switch operates in auto mode.
The three modes of switch operation are:
• Extended mode—Slot 1 supports all existing Alpine modules: Alpine Ethernet I/O modules (green
stripe) and Alpine Access I/O modules (silver stripe). Slots 2 and 3 support only Alpine Access I/O
modules (silver stripe).
The Extended Mode LED lights when the switch is in extended mode.
• Standard mode—In standard mode, only slots 1 and 2 are enabled. Slot 3 is disabled. Slots 1 and 2
support all existing Alpine I/O modules: Alpine Ethernet I/O modules (green stripe) and Alpine
Access I/O modules (silver stripe).
The Standard Mode LED lights when the switch is in standard mode.
• Auto mode—In auto mode, the switch determines if it is in standard or extended mode depending
on the type of modules installed in the chassis or the slot preconfigurations. If an Alpine I/O
module with a green stripe (for example, an FM-32Ti module) is installed or preconfigured in slot 2,
the switch operates in standard mode. If an Alpine I/O module with a silver stripe (for example, a
WM-4Ti module) is installed or preconfigured in slots 2 or 3, the switch operates in extended mode.
