Introduction

Features
Processors
The 9E106-06 is equipped with dual advanced Intel i960
®
RISC microprocessors.
One processor provides a platform for all management applications, such as
Spanning Tree, RMON, IETF and Enterprise MIB support. This network
management information is available through a variety of methods. All SNMP
based information is accessible either via an in-band (front panel port), side-band
(SMB-10), or out-of-band via the Environmental Module’s (EM) COM ports. For
more information on the EM’s COM ports or SMB-10 refer to the SmartSwitch
9000 Local Management User’s Guide. The other processor acts as the primary
switching device. This switching device can operate in two modes, as a traditional
bridge, or as a SecureFast Switch (SFS).

System Management
The 9E106-06 provides interfaces to the two System Management Buses (SMB-1
and SMB-10) for intermodule management. The SMB-1 Bus is only accessible to
modules. The SMB-10 Bus is accessible through the EPIM on the front of the
Environmental Module.

Management
The 9E106-06 provides local and remote management functions. Local
management is provided through the RS-232 COM ports on the SmartSwitch 9000
Environmental Module using a standard VT-220 terminal or equivalent, Serial
Line Interface Protocol (SLIP), or Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP).

Remote management is possible through Cabletron’s SPECTRUM or any SNMP
compliant management tool. Included as management features are the IETF
Standard Management Information Base (MIBs) RMON (RFC 1271), IETF MIB ll
(RFC 1213), IETF Bridge MIB (RFC 1493), FDDI 1512 with SMT 7.3 and a host of
other Cabletron enterprise MIBs. In addition, the front panel provides LEDs to
indicate LINK status per port, as well as transmit and receive activity.

Connectivity
The 9E106-06 module has six user configurable front panel Ethernet Port Interface
Module (EPIM) connections and one Flexible Network Bus (FNB) backplane
connection. Ethernet networks connect to the 9E106-06 module using standard
Cabletron EPIMs. EPIMs presently available include:
