Logical Interfaces - Dell PowerConnect W-Series FIPS Supplement Manual

Logical Interfaces

All of these physical interfaces are separated into logical interfaces defined by FIPS 140-2, as described in
the following table.
Table 2 FIPS 140-2 Logical Interfaces
FIPS 140-2 Logical Interfaces
Data Input Interface
Data Output Interface
Control Input Interface
Status Output Interface
Power Interface
Data input and output, control input, status output, and power interfaces are defined as follows:
Data input and output are the packets that use the firewall, VPN, and routing functionality of the

modules.
Control input consists of manual control inputs for media eject. It also consists of all of the data that is

entered into the switch while using the management interfaces.
Status output consists of the status indicators displayed through the LEDs, the status data that is output

from the switch while using the management interfaces, and the log file.
LEDs indicate the physical state of the module, such as power-up (or rebooting), utilization level,
activation state (including fan, ports, and power) and status of connected media. The log file records the
results of self-tests, configuration errors, and monitoring data.
