1 INTRODUCTION

Welcome to the SmartCell 6A000 User Guide. The SmartCell 6A000 ATM switch is a module that fits into the SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. You can install as many as three SmartCell 6A000 switches into a SmartSwitch 6000 chassis. The module is hot swappable, meaning that you can install and remove it without turning off or disconnecting the chassis. This manual will help you quickly and easily install and configure your SmartCell 6A000 switch.

By performing the steps described in the first two chapters of this manual, your switch will be physically installed, accessible on your Ethernet network, and running either an IP over ATM VLAN or an emulated Ethernet or Token Ring LAN.

Subsequent chapters provide information about switch use, maintenance, and problem solving. These topics include

•Managing the switch: backing up configurations, adding routes, creating PVC connections, upgrading software, dealing with bandwidth, and controlling congestion

•Working with the switch’s hardware components

•Troubleshooting

Note For detailed descriptions of SmartCell 6A000 console commands and their use, see the SmartCell 6A000/ZX-250 Reference Manual.
