1.14.3 Alarms Associated with the SBx3112 Architecture
All of the logs and alarms are listed in Log Reference for SwitchBlade x3100 Series Switches. Following are the
alarms that are related to the SBx3112 architecture.
1.14.3.1 Alarms for the (Dual) CFC
The SBx3112 has a dual CFC that operates in load sharing mode.
• The internal control links between all data switching cards are Ethernet based. Therefore, all the data
switching cards on the SBx3112 support an alarm that indicates loss of the control plane link.
• There are two internal data plane links between each CFC and each service module, and so each service
module has four active data plane links in a duplex configuration. In the iMAP series products, each service
module has a single data plane link to each CFC, so the “Datalink Lost” alarms are enhanced on SBx3112 to
provide more detailed information about which internal data link is having a fault.
• On data link failures detected by the CFC (CM side), the alarm differentiates between the two links to the
service module by designating the alarm as “A” or “B”, and the failure can be detected by either CFC. On
data link failures detected by Line Cards, the alarm differentiates between the four links by using both the
A/B designation and the CFC slot.
1.14.3.2 Alarms for the CFC200
The CFC200 supports all of the pre-release 14.0 CFC card alarms, in addition to the following new alarms.
(Refer to the Allied Telesis Log Manual for complete information on these alarms.)
• Control link lost - as explained above, when control link is lost between CFCs
• USB Failure - because of thermal shutdown or over-current
• High Temperature - as detected by the temperature sensor on the CFC.
Alarms for the inactive CFC have a high severity due to the fact that losing the inactive CFC causes a loss in
total system bandwidth.
1.14.3.3 Alarms for the Service Modules
The XE4, GE24POE and GE24SFP line cards all support a standard set of alarms, and in addition the following
new control and data link alarms.
