VIM1 Versatile Interface Modules
The back panel of the Summit X650 series switch has a replaceable VIM1 versatile interface module.
These modules provide dedicated high-speed stacking ports or Ethernet ports. For more information
about using the stacking ports, see
Chapter
5.
VIM1-SummitStack Versatile Interface Module
The VIM1-SummitStack versatile interface module
(Figure
79) provides four cages for installed
1000-BASE SFP optical modules. These ports (numbered 25 through 28) function the same as the
front-panel ports. For a complete list of supported SFPs, refer to the most recent version of the
ExtremeEXOS Release Notes.
The VIM1-SummitStack module also provides two high-performance stacking ports that allow you to
combine multiple units into a single SummitStack management entity. The VIM1-SummitStack module
is the default VIM1 module shipped with the base Summit X650 platform. Ports 23 and 24 of the front
panel are shared with the two rear-panel stacking ports on the VIM1-SummitStack module.
By default, stacking is not enabled on the switch, and all 24 front-panel ports are available. When
stacking is enabled, the switch provides access to 22 10GBASE ports and 2 stacking ports. For more
information about configuring and operating a SummitStack configuration, refer to the ExtremeXOS
Concepts Guide and the ExtremeXOS Command Reference Guide.
