    1 INTRODUCTION Welcome to the SmartCell 6A000 User Guide. The SmartCell 6A000 ATM switch is a module that fits into the SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. You can install as many as five SmartCell 6A000 switches into a SmartSwitch 6000 chassis (using the 6C305-3 power supply). The module is hot swappable, meaning that you can install and remove it without turning off or disconnecting the chassis.

    Depending on the configuration ordered, your switch looks similar to one of the units in the drawing in Figure 2-1. The 6A000-04, shown on the left, has four I/O modules. The 6A000-02, shown on the right, has two I/O modules; the empty I/O module positions are covered by metal blanks.

    It is important to understand the concept of SmartCell 6A000 switch client connections. A client connection is actually a connection between the VLAN and the SmartCell 6A000 CPU; this CPU connection appears as if the switch is an end station on the VLAN. The SmartCell 6A000 uses local clients to connect itself to the VLANs that it supports.

    IP ROUTING The SmartCell 6A000 switch provides limited IP routing. IP routing allows switches that are not connected directly to Ethernet to communicate with an Ethernet-based network management system (NMS). The connection is made by adding IP routes on the non-connected switches that specify a client on a connected switch as their gateway to the Ethernet.
  • Page 50 IP Routing SmartCell 6A000 IP routing performance is inadequate for routing between Note VLANs. If you need to create routes between VLANs on your SmartCell 6A000, use a router equipped with an ATM interface. Consult Cabletron Customer Support for recommended routers.
