Using the Passport 8100 Modules

This chapter includes the following information:

•Summary of features

•Detailed descriptions of each module

Features

The Passport 8100 modules have the following features:

•One active and one optional standby CPU subsystem with fast fail-over in the event of loss of one CPU

•Hardware redundancy features, including power supplies, chassis fans, and switch management modules

•High-speed forwarding rate, up to 3 million packets per second (peak)

•Store-and-forward switching, providing full-performance forwarding at full line speed

•Learning rate of 3 million addresses per second (peak)

•Address database capacity of up to 16,000 entries at line rate (32,000 entries without flooding)

•Connection to a high-speed backplane for forwarding of packets between modules

•Front-panel LEDs for monitoring port activity and module operation

•Expansion slot for installation of an optional media dependent adapter to provide 100BASE-FX fiber connections, Gigabit Ethernet connections, or additional 10/100BASE-TX connections (Passport 8132TX module only)

•Support for Spanning Tree Protocol with one spanning tree group in two modes:

—IEEE 802.1D-compliant mode

—FastStart mode, which allows the port to reach forwarding state faster Spanning tree can be disabled on individual ports or the entire switch.
