DRAFT: BROCADE CONFIDENTIAL
One front-panel DB9 console port for Application Core access
ASM4 – Available only with the ServerIron ADX 4000 bundle, the ASM4 has 4 of the available 8
Application Processors enabled. It will only work in a ServerIron ADX 4000 chassis and only in
a single ASM configuration. If an additional ASM4 module is installed, only the ASM4 module
installed in the ASM 1 slot will be accepted. If an ASM8 module is installed in a system with an
ASM4 module, the ASM4 will be rejected and the ASM8 module will be accepted by the
system. You can purchase an upgrade license to increase the capability of an ASM4 to that of
an ASM8. The ASM4 license is tied to the ASM module and not to the chassis. Consequently, a
license can be purchased to upgrade the ASM4 to use all eight available Application
Processors with all functionality and performance options enabled. With this license installed,
the ASM module functions and is recognized as an ASM8 module
ASM8 – All 8 Application processors are enabled on an ASM8 module. It can be installed in any
ServerIron ADX chassis configuration in any ASM designated slot.
