Page 9: Chapter 1 Introduction
These modules can operate in two modes: either as a 12/36 port Ethernet traditional switch (using 802.1d standards) with a high speed backbone connection, or as a Secure Fast Switch (SFS) with 12/36 Ethernet connections. Each port can be configured to operate in the Full Duplex mode. This configuration allows each port to provide a full 20 Mbps of bandwidth for file... -
Page 10: Features
Spanning Tree, RMON, and MIB support, within a scalable RISC-Based architecture. Fast Packet Switching The 9E428-12/36 and 9E429-12/36 modules incorporate a hardware based switch design referred to as the SmartSwitch ASIC, a collection of custom ASICs designed specifically for high speed switching. Because all frame translation, address lookups, and forwarding decisions are performed in hardware, these modules can obtain a throughput performance of greater than 750K pps. - Page 11 or full duplex mode. Operating in standard Ethernet mode limits bandwidth to 10 Mbps per port, while operating in duplex mode doubles bandwidth from 10 Mbps to 20 Mbps per port. Management Information Base (MIB) Support The 9E428-12/36 and 9E429-12/36 modules provide MIB support including: •...

Page 16: User Accessible Components
User Accessible Components Figure 2-1 shows the various components that can be accessed by users. These consist of an eight-position dip switch (explained in the next section), replaceable PROMs, and sockets for memory and flash upgrades. These will be used for future upgrades. -
Page 17: Setting The Module Dip Switch
Installing the 9E428 and 9E429 Modules Setting the Module DIP Switch The DIP switch on the 9E428 and 9E429 Modules (Figure 2-1 and Figure 2-2), is an eight-switch DIP located near the bottom left corner of the module. Each switch is set according to the functions described in Table 2-1. - Page 18 Reserved Reserved Reserved Reserved Caution: Do not toggle Switch 8 unless you intend to reset the user configured passwords to the factory default settings. CAUTION Caution: Do not toggle Switch 7 unless you intend to reset the user entered parameters to the factory default settings.

Installing the Module in the SmartSwitch 9000 Chassis To install the 9E428-12/36 and the 9E429-12/36 modules in the SmartSwitch 9000 chassis, follow the steps below: 1. Remove the blank panel covering the slot in which the module will be mounted. All other slots must be covered to ensure proper airflow and cooling. - Page 20 Installing the 9E428 and 9E429 Modules Metal Back-Panel Warning: Ensure that the circuit card is between the card guides. Lock down the top and bottom plastic tabs at the same time, applying even pressure. Jack for ESD Wrist Strap Module Module Guides Figure 2-3.

Page 21: The Reset Switch
The Reset Switch The Reset switch is located on the front panel, under the top plastic tab as shown in Figure 2-4. It serves three functions: resetting the i960 processor, shutting down the module, or restarting the module. • To reset the i960 processor, press the reset switch twice within three seconds. - Page 22 Installing the 9E428 and 9E429 Modules...

SmartSwitch ASIC The SmartSwitch ASIC is a hardware-based switch design that is the key building block of the SmartSwitch 9000 hub. The SmartSwitch ASIC makes all filtering/ forwarding decisions in custom hardware as opposed to software like in traditional bridges. This custom hardware enables the SmartSwitch ASIC to process over 750K frames per second. -
Page 26: System Management Buses
Operation System Management Buses There are two management channels within the SmartSwitch 9000 system: the SMB-1 and the SMB-10. These buses provide side-band management and inter- module management communication. SMB-1 Bus The SMB-1 is a 1Mbs management bus located within the SmartSwitch 9000. This bus is utilized by all diagnostic controllers in the system including connectivity modules, power supply modules and the environmental module. -
Page 27: Dc/Dc Converter
DC/DC Converter The DC/DC converter converts the 48 VDC on the system power bus to the necessary operating voltages for its host network services module. The diagnostic controller monitors and controls the operation of the DC/DC converter. INB Interface The INB Backplane is designed to transport fixed length data blocks between modules in the SmartSwitch 9000 using an INB Time Division Multiplexing (ITDM) design. -

Operation Round Robin Arbitration (Level 2) This level makes use of idle time slices. There is a token passed on every time slice to modules participating in this level of arbitration. Only one module has the token at any one time slice. If the module assigned to the next time slice is not requesting then the module with the token will be granted access if it is requesting. -
