Fiber-Optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC Features
The short-range and long-range fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs support:
High bandwidth
Full-duplex mode operation up to 1 Gbps (no half-duplex support)
Link speed auto advertising
Tracing through tcpdump
Compliance with IEEE 802.3z Gigabit Ethernet specification
The short-range multi-mode fiber (MMF) fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs in the IP390 run on
Nokia IPSO v4.0.1 or higher.
The long-range single-mode fiber (SMF) fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NICs in the IP390 run on
Nokia IPSO v4.2 or higher.
You can configure and monitor Gigabit Ethernet NIC interfaces with Nokia Network Voyager.
Specifically, you set the port speed and full-duplex mode with Network Voyager.
For information about how to access Network Voyager and the related reference materials, see
Chapter 3, “Performing the Initial Configuration.”.
The following figure shows the front panel details for the two-port short-range (1000 Base-SX)
fiber-optic Gigabit Ethernet NIC you can use in IP390 appliance.
