Management Processor Monitor: Other Commands

Definition: showpci

sleep

The sleep command executes a delay of N seconds.

Definition: Delay execution for N seconds (N is a decimal value).

sleep N

switch_reg

The switch_reg command reads or writes to the Ethernet core switch registers. The values changed via this command are not persistent and clear after a hard or soft reset. Option val- ues are as follows: switch (core or fp), port (0 - 25), block (1-7), and sub-block (0-15). “R” reads the register contents at the address specified. “W” writes the address value to the reg- ister address specified.

Definition: switch_reg [switch] [port op block sub-block op [RW]] (address) (value)

Example: The following is an example of a read of register address 0x1a.

switch_reg core 0 r 0x1a

The following is an example of a write to register address 0x1a where 0 is the data to write.

switch_reg core 0 w 0x1a 0

version

The version command displays the monitor’s current version number.

Definition: version

vlan

The vlan command creates one or more new VLANs using vid as the VLAN identification (VID) value and deletes one or more existing VLANs whose VLAN ID matches the VLAN ID value vid. These variables are set using a comma-separated list of port names. This com- mand sets an untagged port-based VLAN and the VLAN table entry with the port’s default VID. In this configuration, each port is assigned to one VLAN.

Definition: vlan add <vid1>=portlist1> <vid2>=<portlist2>…

vlan delete <vid1> <vid2>…

vlan show

Example: To create VLAN 1 on the core switch:

vlan add 1=14,15

To delete VLAN 1 on the core switch:

vlan delete 1

ATCA-9305 specifications

The Emerson ATCA-9305 is a high-performance AdvancedTCA (ATCA) chassis designed to meet the demanding requirements of telecommunications and IT infrastructure. With a focus on scalability, reliability, and flexibility, this equipment is ideal for service providers and enterprises looking to deploy robust applications in a variety of environments.

One of the main features of the ATCA-9305 is its support for high-density blade configurations. The chassis can accommodate up to 14 ATCA blades, enabling the deployment of powerful processing units, communication modules, and storage solutions. This level of density not only maximizes space but also minimizes power consumption, which is crucial for reducing operational costs in large-scale deployments.

The ATCA-9305 is built with a focus on advanced thermal management and redundancy. It employs a sophisticated cooling architecture that ensures optimal airflow across the chassis, preventing overheating during operation. Additionally, the chassis features hot-swappable fans and power supplies, which means that components can be replaced without interrupting the overall system performance. This capability enhances uptime and reliability, which is essential for mission-critical applications.

Another notable characteristic of the ATCA-9305 is its support for various interconnect technologies. The chassis provides robust backplane options that facilitate high-bandwidth communication between blades. It supports Ethernet, PCI Express, and Serial RapidIO, allowing for seamless integration with existing infrastructure and future technologies. This flexibility enables organizations to adapt to changing market demands and technological advancements.

Security features are also a prominent aspect of the ATCA-9305. The chassis incorporates hardware-based security modules that enhance data integrity and protect sensitive information. This is particularly important for service providers who must adhere to strict regulatory compliance standards.

In terms of management and monitoring, the ATCA-9305 is equipped with advanced management capabilities. It supports AdvancedTCA Management Interface (IPMI) and other monitoring protocols, allowing administrators to easily oversee the health and performance of the entire system. This level of visibility aids in proactive maintenance and troubleshooting, effectively reducing downtime.

In conclusion, the Emerson ATCA-9305 is a powerful and versatile chassis that stands out due to its high-density configuration, advanced thermal management, diverse interconnect technology support, robust security features, and comprehensive management capabilities. Its design is tailored for the evolving needs of telecommunications and data center environments, making it a valuable asset for any organization looking to enhance its infrastructure.
