Monitoring the SIBs
You monitor the Switch Interface Boards (SIBs) that provide the switching function
to the destination Flexible PIC Concentrator (FPC). The SIBs create the switch fabric
for the routing platforms, providing up to a total of 640 million packets per second
(Mpps) of forwarding. (See Table 78.)
