4 Management Port (MGMT)
4 Management Port (MGMT)
The Tellabs 8611 access switch provides a 10/100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T port dedicated for
management communicatio n (CLI or Tellabs 8000 intelligent network manager). There i s one
MGMT port on each SCM of the Tellabs 8611 access switch. From configuration and functi onality
point of view, the MGMT port is as any other Ether net po rt of the Tellabs 8600 system. In addition
to the local management access, the MGMT port provides access to the network for the management
communication traffic.
The Tellabs 8611 access switch can have two SCMs for equipment protection purposes. Each SCM
has its own MGMT port. The MGMT port is automatically protected if the SCM is protected. The
MGMT port protection mechanism of the Tellabs 8600 system resem bles the MSP1+1/ APS1+1
protection scheme used for STM-N POS interfaces. The protected MGMT port shares the same
configuration e x cept for the MAC address t hat is unique in both sides. Status informatio n, fault
reports and counters are gathered separately for both MGM T ports. Depending on the line status and
the equipment status of the SCMs, one of the two MGMT ports is active passing traffic through,
while the other MGMT port is passive. The passive MGMT port drops traffic at ingress direction.
