NETWORK CONNECTIVITY
A G10 deployment currently requires that the customer provide three Ethernet connections
and associated addresses on the same subnet (see Figure 1.4):
Primary Interface that connects the G10 to the Iris server. This enables probe
maintenance and configuration, as well as delivery of network traffic statistics and
detailed data to the server for display in IrisView applications. The Primary Interface
supports 100/1000 Mbps (IAP100) and 100/1000/10000 Mbps (PRM200/PRM300
RTM) Ethernet physical connections; it requires at least 100 Mbps connectivity. The
primary interface can be configured as non-redundant or redundant. Refer to the G10
Installation Guide for details.
OAM Interfaces (2) that connect to the Shelf Management Modules (ShMM) on the
rear of the chassis. The SHmms provide a central management point for controlling
the operation of the chassis, for providing probe status, and for monitoring the alarm
conditions. The OAM interfaces support 10/100 Mbps Ethernet physical connections.
They require at least 10Mbps connectivity to the Iris server for management.
Figure 1.4 shows a diagram of the required Ethernet connections for G10 configurations
using the IAP200/PRM200 RTM or IAP320/PRM300 RTM configurations. Primary Interface 2
(Po
r
t B) is optional and only used in redundant configurations.
