48Chapter 4 Managing the Passport 8672ATME Module with Device Manager

The management systems identify an interface by its slot number (in the Passport 8600 series chassis) and its port number, using the syntax slot number/port number (s/p). The Passport 8672ATME Module can contain up to eight ports when two 4-port MDAs are inserted. Port numbers 1 to 4 are reserved for the MDA in the left slot regardless of the actual physical number of ports. Port numbers 5 to 8 apply to the MDA in the right slot regardless of the actual physical number of ports.

For example, a Passport 8672ATME Module in the third slot of the Passport 8600 series chassis with an OC-12c/STM-4 MDA in the left slot and an OC-3c/STM-1 MDA in the right slot has the following port numbers for management and configuration:

•3/1: OC-12c

•3/5: OC-3c/STM-1, left port

•3/6: OC-3c/STM-1, port second from left

•3/7: OC-3c/STM-1, port second from right

•3/8: OC-3c/STM-1, right port

As another example of port numbering, a Passport 8672ATME Module in the second slot of the chassis with two OC-12c/STM-4 MDAs installed has the following port numbers:

•2/1: OC-12c/STM-4, left

•2/5: OC-12c/STM-4, right

A Passport 8672ATME Module with two OC-3c/STM-1 MDAs installed has ports numbered consecutively 1 through 8, from left to right.
