  • Page 19: Full-Duplex

    The Alpine 3800 series switch provides full-duplex support for all ports. Full-duplex allows frames to be transmitted and received simultaneously and, in effect, doubles the bandwidth available on a link. All ports on the Alpine 3800 series switch autonegotiate for half- or full-duplex operation. Gigabit Ethernet and 100BASE-FX ports operate in full-duplex mode, only.

  • Page 22: Alpine 3800 Series Switch Power Supply

    ERIES WITCH The Alpine 3800 series switch can have one or two AC or DC power supplies. The AC power supplies auto-sense for 110V and 220V power. The DC power supplies require -48 VDC input line voltage. When two power supplies are present, the power is load-shared between the supplies for enhanced longevity.
  • Page 23: Switch Management Module

    WITCH ANAGEMENT The Switch Management Module (SMMi) is responsible for upper-layer protocol processing and switch management functions. The SMMi can store two ExtremeWare software images (version 6.0 or greater) and two switch configurations. Figure 1-3 shows the SMMi. Module status...
  • Page 24: Smmi Memory

    The SMMi has two 144-pin SODIMM sockets, and ships with two 128MB SODRAM modules installed, as shown in Only SODIMMs supplied by Extreme Networks are supported in the SMMi. Figure 1-4: SMMi SODIMM sockets For information on adding or removing SODIMMs, refer to Table 1-5 describes the LED behavior on the SMMi.
  • Page 25: Alpine 3800 Series Switch Fan Tray

    No configuration information is stored on the I/O modules; all configuration information is stored on the SMMi. When the Alpine 3800 series switch is powered on, ExtremeWare generates a default configuration for any slots that are occupied with I/O modules. The default configuration allows the I/O module ports to participate in the VLAN named default.
