Overview

The 1-Port 10-GigE is a 1-Port 10-Gigabit Ethernet, single-slot module. Faceplate LEDs indicate module, link, and activity status (see Figure 1). The mini-DB-9 connection on the faceplate allows the module to serve as a Server Attached Module (SAM).

NOTE The 1-Port 10-GigE module is a Family 2 module. Roman numerals on the faceplate label identify the module as a Family 2 module (see Figure 1).

The 1-Port 10-GigE module ships with a cable management bracket. Velcro fasteners on the cable management bracket allows for ease of dressing and organization of fiber cables. In addition, the 1-Port 10-GigE module ships with an Electro Magnetic Interference (EMI) dust cover installed in the port.

NOTE The cable management bracket is intended for cable management purposes only.

As with all other router modules, proper installation procedure must be followed.

TSR Module Population Rules

Each TSR bay has four shelves numbered from 1 (top) to 4 (bottom). Each shelf has 10 slots to house the router and route controller modules (see Figure 2). All router modules must be inserted in family pairs.

The location of the routing modules within the bay creates the TSR system's "toroidal mesh." It is critical to install routing modules and route controller modules in predefined positions. All router modules must be inserted in family pairs.

Figure 2. TSR Bay Shelf and Slot Numbering

Populating the Bay

The rules for populating the first TSR Full Bay and TSR Split Bay with router module pairs follow. See Figure 2 for TSR bay slot number.

• Modules occupying a slot use the slot number as its identifier. In a multibay system, a module is identified by bay number/slot number; i.e., 1/10 would be bay 1, slot 10.
  
  
• Slots with red circles only accept modules with red circles. Slots with blue squares only accept modules with blue squares. Module color and shape identifiers are on the top of the modules and on the bottom of each shelf slots (see Figure 3 and Figure 4).
  
  

Figure 3. TSR Red Module Identification

Figure 4. TSR Blue Module Identification

• The 1-Port GigE module is a Family 2 module. Roman numerals on the faceplate label identify the module as a Family 2 module (see Figure 1).
  
  
• Router modules must be added in Family pairs. That is, you must install two Family 1 modules OR two Family 2 modules.
  
  
• If installing the module in a cold bay, follow the Population Rules outlined in the Terabit Switch Router Install Guide.
  
  
• If installing the router module in a live bay use the show population CLI command - specifying the module family - to identify the slot(s) to populate. Module color is represented in the CLI as R for red and B for blue.
  
  

Refer to IPriori CLI Reference and Configuration Guides (Vol. 1) for further information on this command. Online versions of the manuals are available at http://www.avici.com/documentation.

Preparing to Install Router Modules

Before removing or installing modules, remove the EMI front cover (if installed) as outlined in the TSR Install Guide.

Depending on the individual configuration of the TSR, either a router module or a filler module must be removed in order to install the 1-Port 10-GigE module. Refer to "Removing Router Module(s)" to remove a router module. Refer to "Removing Filler Modules" to remove a filler module.

In order to prevent damage to the TSR system from static electricity, use the following precautions:

• Do not handle modules unless you are using the appropriate antistatic protection, such as an antistatic wrist or heel strap and a conductive mat.
  
  
• When using an antistatic wrist strap, attach the cord to the appropriate ground jack.
  
  
• Handle modules by outer enclosure only. Do not touch electrical connections, pins, or soldered surfaces.
  
  

CAUTION (1) When handling modules, wear a grounded wrist strap or equivalent antistatic protection to prevent damage to electronic parts.

Installing the Antistatic Wrist Strap

A grounded antistatic wrist strap must be used to protect the TSR bay modules and components from damage caused by static.

PROCEDURE: Use the following procedure to install the antistatic wrist strap:

Step 1 Remove the alligator clip from the grounding pin on the antistatic wrist strap.

Step 2 Insert the grounding pin into the electrostatic discharge (ESD) jack on the front of the TSR bay shelf (see Figure 5).

Step 3 Use the ESD jack while handling modules.

Figure 5. ESD Jack Locations

Removing Router Module(s)

Before removing a module you must shut down the module being replaced. Use the CLI shutdown command to disable all functions on the module. The module appears as administratively down when executing the show mod brief command.

Shutting Down the Module

When the module is shutdown, proceed with removing the router module.

Routine router module removal requires the disconnecting of existing fiber optic cable connections. Router modules serving as Server Attached Modules (SAMs) require disconnecting fiber optic and SAM cable connections to the server module.

PROCEDURE: Use the following steps to remove the router module(s):

Step 1 Verify that your antistatic wrist strap is properly grounded.

Step 2 Undress the fiber optic cable from the cable management bracket.

Step 3 Disconnect the SC fiber optic connectors from the module (see Figure 6). Carefully undress the cable and move it to the side to avoid damage.

WARNING (1) This is a Class 1 laser product. Invisible laser radiation can be emitted from the aperture of the port when the fiber cable is disconnected. Avoid exposure to laser radiation and do not look directly into open apertures. Replace dust cap(s) into module port slots after disconnecting fiber optic connectors.

Figure 6. Disconnecting SC Fiber Optic Connector

Step 4 If this module is not a SAM, proceed to Step 5. If this is a SAM module, disconnect the SAM connector (see Figure 7). Hang the SAM cable down and out of the way, or tuck the cable into the horizontal cable tray under the module shelf.

Step 8 Hold the module in place with one hand at the bottom of case, then close the ejector latches by rotating them to the closed position and sliding the release levers in the direction of the arrows to lock the levers back into place (see Figure 11).

Figure 11. Router Module Removal - 3

CAUTION (3) A detailed inspection of the VHDM connector is required each time a module is removed or inserted. Lay the module gently on its side to perform a VHDM connector inspection. Any contact to a VHDM connector outside a TSR could damage the connector.

Step 9 Carefully inspect the VHDM connector for damage such as deformed sockets, holes between socket columns, and deformed guide fins on top and bottom of the socket columns (see Figure 12).

CAUTION (4) If the VHDM connector has any signs of damage, mark the module and the slot as damaged and call TSR-BY-AVICI to request an Return Material Authorization (RMA). DO NOT insert a new router module into the slot. If the slot is damaged, only insert filler modules. Contact Support Services immediately.

Figure 12. VHDM Connector

Step 10 Before placing the module in a static-proof bag, replace the VHDM protective cap over the VHDM connector at the rear of the module. This will protect the pins while the module is not in the TSR (see Figure 15).

CAUTION (5) If the empty slot is not populated with a module, it must be filled with a filler module within five minutes.

Step 11 If this is an RMA, repackage according to RMA directions. Ship back to Avici.

Removing Filler Modules

The TSR systems ships with 38 filler modules, which ensures proper cooling and elimination of electromagnetic interference during operation. Remove filler modules from slots intended for router modules (see Figure 13).

Figure 13. Filler Module

If you are removing a filler module from the TSR, use the following procedure.

PROCEDURE: Use the following steps to remove a filler module:

Step 1 Use a 1/2 in. flat-blade screw driver to loosen the lock latch on the filler module.

Step 2 Pull the filler module out of the slot (see Figure 14).

Step 3 Store the filler module in a dry, cool area.

Step 11 Simultaneously depress the release levers on the top and bottom ejector latches and rotate the ejector latch to the closed position (see Figure 21 and Figure 22). Release the release levers once the ejector latches are closed.

NOTE If the ejector latches will not close, reseat the module by pulling it six inches out of the slot and then repeating Step 7 through Step 11, making sure the module is not inserted too far into the slot. If the ejector latches still do not close after reseating the module, contact Avici Customer Support.

Figure 22. Router Module Installation - 6

LEDs

LEDs on the faceplate of the 1-Port 10-GigE module indicate the status of the module and the link and activity status of each of the ports (see Figure 23).

Board Status

The two top LEDs indicate "up" status of the board. During routing module POST, the red triangle shaped LED on the faceplate lights and remains lit until POST is completed. During the boot process, the green square LED blinks. Once the module has fully booted, the green square LED remains solid and the red LED is extinguished.

The solid green LED indicates that the module has passed POST.

If the red LED remains lit, POST has detected a nonrecoverable error or fault. If the red LED remains lit, remove and reseat the module to run POST again. Contact Customer Service if the module does not again pass POST.

Port Status

The port LED indicates port status. This LED consists of two LEDs: the left most LED (green or not lit) indicates port status and the right most LED (amber or not lit) indicates activity status.

When the link is up, the left most LED (L) will be solid green. If no light is present, the port is down. The right LED (A) indicates activity of the port. The right LED blinks amber when the link is actively passing traffic.

Figure 23. 1-Port 10-GigE Module LEDs

Installing the Cable Management Bracket

After module installation, install the cable management bracket. Receptive screw holes in the module faceplate accept the captive screws of the cable management bracket. Velcro fasteners in the cable management bracket allow easy dressing and organization of fiber optic cables.

CAUTION (7) The cable management bracket is for cable management purposes only. The cable management bracket must be removed prior to removing the 1-Port module. DO NOT use the cable management bracket to lift or carry the 1-Port 10-GigE module. Failure to adhere to these guidelines may result in equipment damage.

Configuring the Interfaces

Activating a Gigabit Ethernet Interface

PROCEDURE: Use the following steps to configure a Gigabit Ethernet interface:

Step 1 Use the show module command to display configured modules. If the 1-Port Gigabit Ethernet module is shut down, use the no shutdown command in module configuration mode to activate the module.

Step 2 Use the configure terminal command to enter configuration command mode.

Step 3 Use the interface command with the gbe key word and bay/slot/port location to enter interface configuration command mode.

Step 4 Optionally, modify the default settings.

Step 5 Optionally, configure a description for the interface using the description command.

Step 6 Configure the local address using the ip address command.

Step 7 Use the no shutdown command to activate the interface.

Step 8 Use the show interface command to display and verify the new interface configuration.

The interface Command

The interface command defines an interface.

Syntax: interface gbe bay/slot/port

gbe	Configures the interface to support gigabit Ethernet connections.
bay/slot/port	Identifies a specific interface on the TSR. Valid values are as follows: bay: Bay number. Valid values 1 - 4. Default 1. slot: Slot number where the module is installed in the TSR. Valid values are integers between 1 and 39. port: Valid value is 1.

Description: The interface gbe command defines a Gigabit Ethernet interface and enters the interface configuration mode. The interface is not usable as a routing interface until you use the ip address and no shutdown commands.

To configure a gbe interface:

Use the interface gbe bay/slot/port syntax to configure a Gigabit Ethernet interface.

Default: No interfaces configured.

Command Mode: Configuration.

Example: In the following example:

• The interface gbe command configures a 10-Gigabit Ethernet interface for bay 1, slot 1, port 1.
  
  
• The ip address command assigns the IP address 5.10.1.2 to the interface.

Display the Gigabit Ethernet Interface

Use the show interfaces gbe command to display information about Gigabit Ethernet interfaces.

Syntax: show interfaces gbe bay/slot/port

bay/slot/port

Identifies a specific interface on the TSR. Valid values are as follows: bay: numeric identifier for the bay. slot: Slot number where the module is installed in the TSR. Valid values are integers between 1 and 39. port: The 1x10GbE has 1 port.

Description: Use the show interfaces gbe command with no arguments to display information about all the gigabit Ethernet interfaces.

Use the show interfaces gbe bay/slot/port command to display information about a specific gigabit Ethernet interface.

Default: None.

Command Mode: Executive and privileged.

Example: In the following example, show interfaces gbe bay/slot/port command displays information about the specified Gigabit Ethernet interface:

router#show interface gbe 1/1/1 GBE 1/1/1 is up Internet address is 5.10.1.2/16 Broadcast address is 5.10.255.255   Ethernet address is 00:90:b2:f9:00:03 MTU 10240 bytes, Bandwidth 1000.000 Mbit/Sec Encapsulation ARPA Frame type for ARP is ARPA, Frame type for IP is ARPA     Flow control is symmetric     Vlan is Disabled, Number of Vlans on this port are 0 Received: 68239389221 bytes    312977455 directed packets, 0  multicast packets, 0  broadcast packets 0 discards, 0 errors, 0 unknown protocols Transmitted: 6878280521 bytes    31551745  directed packets, 1  multicast packets, 1  broadcast packets 0 discards, 0 errors

The following table describes the fields in the display:

Table 5. Fields Displayed by show interfaces gbe Command   

Field	Description
line protocol up/down	Indicates the operational status of the interface.
Internet address is	IP address and netmask of the interface.
Broadcast address is	The address for all hosts on a network.
Ethernet address is	The Ethernet address for this interface.
MTU bytes	The Maximum Transfer Unit (MTU) size for this interface.
Bandwidth	Available bandwidth of this interface.
Encapsulation	The protocol enabled on this interface.
Frame type for ARP is	The frame type used for the Address Resolution Protocol.
Frame type for IP is	The frame type used for the Internet Protocol.
Flow control is	Indicates how the interface will control traffic during periods of congestion. There are two types configurable: asymmetric allows the local port to determine on its own whether to perform flow control of the remote port. symmetric allows for the local port to perform flow control only if the remote port can also perform flow control of the local port.
Received:
bytes -	The total number of packets received over this interface.
directed packets -	The number of unicast packets received on this interface.
multicast packets -	The number of multicast packets received on this interface.
broadcast packets -	The number of broadcast packets received on this interface.
discards -	The number of received packets purposely dropped during reception on this interface.
errors -	The number of packets in error received on this interface.
unknown protocols -	The number of packets received with an unknown protocol.
Transmitted:
bytes -	The total number of bytes sent over member links of this interface.
directed packets -	The number of unicast packets sent on this interface.
multicast packets -	The number of multicast packets sent on this interface.
broadcast packets -	The number of broadcast packets sent on this interface.
discards -	The number of packets purposely dropped during transmission on this interface.
errors -	The number of packets sent in error on this interface.

Configuring Loopback

Configures a gigabit interface to either loop back through the transmitter or through the receiver.

Syntax: [no] loopback {internal  |  line}

line	Sets the gbe interface to loop the incoming data stream back through the transmitter.
internal	Sets the gbe interface to loop the outgoing data stream back through the receiver.

Description: Local loopbacks are used to test that a gbe port is functioning correctly.

NOTE Loopbacks are used on gbe interfaces to test whether the port is correctly functioning. Routing protocol loopback interfaces are used to disconnect routing from the operation of the underlying interface.

Use the loopback command with the line argument to set the interface to loop incoming packets out through the transmit fiber. This sends incoming traffic unchanged back to the sender. The show interface command displays the keyword "Facility" equipment under loopback field.

Use the no loopback line command to disable an incoming loopback.

Use the loopback command with the internal argument to set the interface to loop outgoing packets back in through the receive fiber. This sends outgoing traffic unchanged back into the router. The show interface command displays the keyword "Equipment" under loopback field.

Use the no loopback internal command to disable an outgoing loopback.

Default: No loopback configured.

Command Mode: Interface configuration.

Example: In the following example:

• The interface gbe command defines a gbe interface
  
  
• The loopback line command sets the interface to loop outgoing packets back in through the receive fiber
  
  
• The show interface command (in Executive mode) displays the new setting in the gbe loopback field:
