Two methods available

If Intel Device View is still functioning, this information can be ob-

 

tained using the Report Manager. If the Report Manager is not acces-

 

sible, use TFTP procedures.

 

Files suitable for TFTP

You can retrieve log files for analysis using TFTP. Here are two of

For example incd36d0.p A read/write

 

 

parameter file which contains the

 

 

information for configuring a switch

 

 

somewhere else on the network.

 

 

 

 

STDALONE.nvp

VLAN database

 

 

 

To transfer files using TFTP:

1At the command prompt, start a TFTP session with the switch.

2To obtain a directory listing of all the files on the switch, type: get dir.

3Examine the directory listing to confirm the names of the files present in the switch.

Report, log and filter files and a parameter file with a .p or .nvp extension appear in the directory listing.

4To retrieve the file that you want, type: get <filename>.

Note If you “get” a report, then the report file is generated on-the-fly and transferred.

520T specifications

The Intel 520T is a well-regarded member of Intel's Xeon processor family, designed primarily for entry-level servers and workstations. Built on the 32nm manufacturing process, the 520T is based on the Nehalem microarchitecture, which has paved the way for improved performance and efficiency in data processing tasks.

One of the standout features of the Intel 520T is its energy efficiency. With a thermal design power (TDP) of just 35 watts, it provides an excellent balance between performance and power consumption. This characteristic makes it particularly suitable for environments where energy costs are a significant concern, such as in data centers or small business server applications.

Equipped with four physical cores and hyper-threading technology, the 520T allows for eight threads of execution, enabling it to handle multi-threaded workloads effectively. It operates at a base clock speed of 2.2 GHz and can achieve turbo boost frequencies up to 2.5 GHz under optimal conditions, ensuring that it provides the necessary performance for demanding applications.

The processor supports Intel's trusted execution technology and virtualization technology, maximizing both security and performance in virtualized environments. This capability allows multiple operating systems to run simultaneously on a physical server, making it an excellent fit for businesses looking to optimize their assets through virtualization.

The Intel 520T also features Intel's QuickPath Interconnect (QPI) technology, which provides a high-speed connection between the processor and other components, such as memory and storage. This feature helps minimize latency and maximizes bandwidth, enhancing overall system responsiveness.

In terms of memory support, the processor can handle up to 32 GB of DDR3 RAM, providing ample capacity for demanding applications. The 520T also supports ECC (Error-Correcting Code) memory, which is vital for mission-critical applications that require data integrity.

Security enhancements are another noteworthy aspect of the Intel 520T. With built-in security technologies, including hardware-based random number generation, the processor helps safeguard sensitive data and contributes to more secure computing environments.

Overall, the Intel 520T stands out as a robust option for users seeking an efficient server-grade processor capable of delivering strong performance while maintaining a low power profile. Its array of features, technologies, and characteristics make it a reliable choice for various computing needs.
