Overview of the BlackDiamond 12800 Series Modules
Two sets of modules are available for the BlackDiamond 12800 series switch: the 12800 series of
modules and the 12800 R series of modules. All BlackDiamond 12800 series I/O modules and
management system modules (MSMs) use the Extreme Networks 4th Generation ASICs that enable
high availability, advanced security, and deterministic performance independent of traffic mix. The
BlackDiamond 12800 series R-series modules further provide hierarchical QoS and larger MAC address,
IP route, and ACL capacity for network designs that need the advanced QoS features and scale. The
R-series modules support rate limiting, which is the ability to control bandwidth throughout the
network. For complete details about rate limiting, refer to the ExtremeXOS 12.0 Concepts Guide.

CAUTION
Do not attempt to mix modules across Extreme Networks product lines. BlackDiamond 12800 series modules are for
use only in a BlackDiamond 12802 or 12804 switch. When a BlackDiamond 12800 series switch is in use,
ExtremeXOS software will not recognize a module from a different product line.

ExtremeXOS software will not recognize a module from a different product line.
NOTE
The BlackDiamond R-series modules must be used together to take advantage of the higher feature set and scale.
The ExtremeXOS software recognizes the MSM type installed in your BlackDiamond 12800 series switch and only
allows use of compatible I/O modules from the same series. An error message is displayed if you attempt to mix
modules.
