Introduction to SPMA 
for the FRX4000, FRX6000, 
and SmartSwitch 1800
 
Using this Guide; manual conventions; contacting the Cabletron Systems’ Global Call Center; firmware 
 
versions supported by SPMA
 
Your SPMA for the FRX4000, FRX6000, and the SmartSwitch 1800 management 
module provides management support for the FRX4000 stand-alone frame relay 
access device; its larger cousin, the FRX6000 scalable chassis; and the innovative 
SmartSwitch 1800 frame relay access device. These devices are high-performance 
Frame Relay products that combine the capabilities of a frame relay access device 
(FRAD) and a router in one box.
The 
 
FRX4000
 
 is designed for smaller branch ofÞces that require high performance 
to integrate with larger networks over frame relay at access rates up to T1 and 
beyond. It supports up to eight serial interfaces (RS232, V.35, or RS422) and one 
LAN (Ethernet or Token Ring) interface, and is available in a variety of models 
depending on the combination of LAN interface and serial protocols you need.
The
 
 FRX6000
 
 is ideal for data centers and concentration sites because of its 
scalable rackmount chassis. Its eight slots can support up to two LAN interface 
cards and 48 serial interfaces, or as many as 56 (with a single LAN interface) or 64 
(with no LAN interface) serial interfaces. Up to eight ports can operate at T1 
speeds, and as many as six can operate at E1 speeds. Expansion cards are 
available for Ethernet or Token Ring LAN support, and for RS232, V.35, or RS422 
serial interfaces; a wide variety of protocol support is also provided.
The 
 
SmartSwitch 1800
 
 is a high performance, multiprotocol frame relay access 
device that provides multimedia support by adding voice technology to 
traditional data applications. Designed for branch ofÞces, it supports four serial 
interfaces for WAN and local connectivity (RS232, V.35, or RS422), two analog 
RJ45 voice channels, and one LAN (Ethernet or Token Ring) interface.
