Chapter 2 Installing the 9A656-04 Module SmartSwitch 9500 modules can be installed in any of the slots that are available. To install a module, proceed as follows: ! Observe all antistatic precautions when handling sensitive electronic equipment. CAUTION ! 1. Remove the blank plate covering the slot in which the 9A656-04 will be installed. All other slots must remain covered to ensure proper airßow and cooling. (Save the blank plate in the event you need to remove the module.) 2.

The Reset Switch The Reset Switch ! CAUTION Resetting the 9A656-04 will cause a brief period of system downtime. When the interface module is reset, the remaining modules attached to the CTM go through an initialization process to determine which interface module will become the module that performs specific management functions. The Reset switch is located on the front panel, under the top plastic tab as shown in Figure 2-2.
Installing the 9A656-04 Module The Module Card DIP Switch An eight position DIP switch is located on the module card as shown in Figure 2-3. The functions of the switches are listed in Table 2-1. ! Do not toggle Switch 8 unless you intend to reset the user configured passwords to their factory default settings. CAUTION Do not toggle Switch 7 unless you intend to reset the user parameters to the factory default settings.
Installing an ANIM Installing an ANIM Figure 2-3 shows the location of the 4 motherboard connectors, and the 16 standoff screws for the ATM Network Interface Modules (ANIMs).

Installing the 9A656-04 Module ! CAUTION NOTE The ANIM and 9A656-04 module are sensitive to static discharges. Use a grounding strap and observe all static precautions during this procedure. Failure to do so could damage the ANIM and the 9A656-04 module. If you are installing ANIMs in more than one slot, remove the cover plates from all the associated slot openings. A Phillips Head screwdriver is needed to install the ANIMs. The 9A656-04 module is shipped without ANIMs.
Installing an ANIM ! When installing or removing an ANIM make sure to always use the cutouts on the board to handle the ANIM. See Figure 2-6 for the location of the cutouts. CAUTION When connecting the ANIM pins to the motherboard connector take extra precaution that the pins do not enter the connector at an angle as this will damage both the ANIM and the motherboard connector. 5. Press straight down Þrmly on the ANIM until the pins slide all the way into the motherboard connector.

Chapter 3 Operation The 9A656-04 provides switching between the front panel interfaces (ANIMs) and the Cell Transfer Matrix backplane located inside the SmartSwitch 9500 chassis. Figure 3-1 shows the trafÞc ßow of ATM cells in the 9A656-04. The following sections brießy describe the functions of the i960 Processor, the ASICs, the CTM and how they relate to ATM cell trafÞc ßow.
Operation ATM Cell Traffic Flow in the 9A656-04 The 9A656-04 SmartSwitch utilizes several innovative features that result in a completely redundant, fault-tolerant design. The three most important hardware facets of the 9A656-04 SmartSwitchÕs features are the Cell Transfer Matrix, Cabletron Systems ASICs, and the i960 HD RISC Processor. Cell Transfer Matrix (CTM) The Cell Transfer Matrix provides a Time Division Multiplexed (TDM) based mesh of full duplex, high-speed (1.
ATM Cell Traffic Flow in the 9A656-04 CTM (Cell Transfer Matrix) ASICs The 9A656-04 has seven CTM ASICs that provide two interfaces each between the TDM Bus and the CTM Backplane located in the SmartSwitch 9500 chassis. Each interface is a full-duplex connection with a raw throughput capacity of 2 Gbps. In addition, the CTM ASICs perform all trafÞc management between the 9A656-04 and the CTM backplane.
Operation System Management Buses There are two management channels within the SmartSwitch 9500 system: ¥ ¥ SMB-1 SMB-10 These buses provide out-of-band management and inter-module management communication. SMB-1 Bus The SMB-1 is a 1 Mbps management bus located within the SmartSwitch 9500 chassis.
System Diagnostic Controller System Diagnostic Controller This diagnostic controller is composed of a Z-80 microprocessor and its supporting logic.
