Overview
The network processors are high-performance, programmable devices that enhance the
Extreme "i" chipset to support expanded functionality, features, and flexibility.
The GPP subsystem handles system control and MPLS module management functions.
The GPP subsystem resides outside the packet-forwarding data path to optimize
routing and billing performance.
MPLS Module LED Indicators
The MPLS module is equipped with two module-level LED indicators (STATUS and
DIAG) (see Figure 1-2).
The STATUS LED indicator is located near the top end of the front panel, near the
ejector/injector handle. This LED indicator is a bi-color LED (displaying in either green
or amber) that signals the operating status of the module.
The DIAG LED indicator is located beside the STATUS LED. The LED is a bi-color LED
(displaying in either green or amber) that signals whether diagnostics are being run on
the module.
