Ether type. Detailed information about VLANs is provided in the local management user’s guide. The modules receive power and backplane connectivity when inserted into an Enterasys Networks’ 6C107 Matrix E7 chassis or 6C105 SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. Important Notice 1-1, View A) features six 1000BASE-T Gigabit Ethernet ports with 1-1, View B) features six Gigabit Ethernet ports.
CONNECTIVITY 6G302-06 The 6G302-06 connects to Gigabit Ethernet networks or workstations through its six RJ45 front panel port connectors. These ports are IEEE 802.3 1000BASE-T compliant, and support the connection of category 5 cables that are up to 100 meters long. 6G306-06 The 6G306-06 has six ports that support Gigabit Ethernet Port Interface Modules (GPIMs), which allow the user to make connections to Gigabit Ethernet networks.
Runtime IP Address Discovery 1.1.1 Options The GPIM options for the module are listed in changes or additions to this information. Table 1-1 GPIM Options Part Number GPIM-01 GPIM-08 GPIM-09 RUNTIME IP ADDRESS DISCOVERY This feature enables the module to automatically accept an IP address from a Boot Strap Protocol (BootP) server on the network without requiring a user to enter an IP address through Local Management.
SmartTrunk provides the ability to take full advantage of the network’s redundant bandwidth. SmartTrunk divides network traffic across multiple ports in parallel to provide additional throughput. The SmartTrunk application can be used with any of the Enterasys Networks switch modules (except ATM modules).
VLAN classification of the frames received. Multiple VLANs can be directed to the same destination port. The VLAN redirect function is only supported when the module is operating as an 802.1Q switch. TRAFFIC RATE LIMITING The Traffic Rate Limiting feature allows the module to control traffic rates on a per-port, per-priority basis.
GARP attributes such as VLAN and multicast group membership. For more details on how GVRP and GMRP handle frames under GARP, and how to configure the switch ports to take advantage of this operation, refer to the Matrix E7 Series and SmartSwitch 6000 Series Modules Local Management User’s Guide.
1.12 MANAGEMENT Management of the module can be either in-band or out-of-band. In-band remote management is possible through any SNMP compliant Network Management Software, such as Enterasys Networks’ WebView and Aprisma’s SPECTRUM for Open Systems suite of management products. Out-of-band Local Management is provided through the RJ45 COM port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator.
(Bridge MIB), RFC 1354 (FIB MIB), and RFC 1190 (Path MTU Discovery). A full suite of Enterasys Networks’ Enterprise MIBs provide a wide array of statistical information to enhance troubleshooting. For information on how to extract and compile individual MIBs, contact Enterasys Networks.
NOTE: The Matrix E7 Series and SmartSwitch 6000 Series Modules Local Management User’s Guide referred to in the following sections can be found on the Enterasys Networks World Wide Web site: SMARTTRUNK FEATURE Before connecting the module to a network so it can take advantage of the SmartTrunk feature, there are certain rules concerning port connections and configurations that must be followed for proper operation.
1000BASE-SX/LX Network 1000BASE-SX/LX NETWORK The removable GPIMs for the 6G306-06 provide a Gigabit Ethernet connection that, when using the GPIM-01, GPIM-08, and GPIM-09, support fiber connections operating at 1000 Mbps (1 Gbps). Other GPIMs may support different types of cabling connections. The device at the other end of the fiber connection must meet IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet requirements for the devices to operate at Gigabit speed.
