NOTE
Although the BlackDiamond 12800 series MSMs are similar in appearance, each MSM model has specific features.
The MSM-5R and MSM-6R modules belong to the R series and include the rate limiting feature, which the MSM-5
module does not support.
The MSM-5R and MSM-6R modules belong to the R series and include the rate limiting feature, which the MSM-5
module does not support.
To use rate limiting, you must install modules with model numbers ending in R. These include the MSM-5R module
or MSM-6R module and the GM-20XTR I/O module, the XM-2XR I/O module, and the XM-2HR module.

The MSM-6R module provides the same functionality as the MSM-5R module, with higher performance

BlackDiamond 12800 Series I/O Modules
No configuration information is stored on the I/O modules; all configuration information is stored on
the MSMs.
the MSMs.
When a BlackDiamond 12800 series switch is powered on, the software generates a default
configuration for any slots that contain I/O modules. The default configuration allows the I/O module
ports to participate in the VLAN named default. The default configuration for the I/O module is not
preserved unless you explicitly save the configuration to NVRAM.

preserved unless you explicitly save the configuration to NVRAM.
You can configure parameters of an I/O module after it is installed, or preconfigure a slot for a certain
type of module and configuration. The preconfigured information is applied to the module after it is
inserted. If you preconfigure a slot for a specific module type and then insert a different type of
module, the module reverts to its default configuration.
