Module

The Management Processor (MP) module contains a processor, volatile and non-volatile RAM, and an Ethernet interface for administration.

The MP module is the administrative engine of a CPX shelf. It acts as a database for the shelf and as the administrative interface for JetCraft, JetVision and other management interfaces.

The MP module consists of two individual cards (Figure 2–8):

￿MP Transition card—I/O ports for connecting to the local ￿area network and other peripheral devices.

The MP module hosts the CPX Management Entity, which features and supports:

Configuration, fault, and security management for the CPX

Configuration management, fault management, and remote software upgrade of the IADs

High-performance, memory-resident database for

￿configurations persistence Real-time performance and error statics

Two Ethernet ports are provided on the MP Card. Each port provides one connection to the CP A and B modules, configured to run at 100BaseTX Full Duplex. Each Ethernet port supports 10BaseT, 10BaseT Full Duplex, 100BaseTX, and 100BaseTX Full Duplex media types. It can detect the network media type to which it is connected, when the AutoDetect mode is selected (recommended in most cases).

On the MP Transition card, there are also 2 Ethernet connections, 1 and 2. Ethernet 1 is enabled and Ethernet 2 is disabled. On the front of the MP, there is also a third Ethernet connection marked “Ethernet”, which is the same as Ethernet 1 on the back. The back port is active, but the front Ethernet port is not active (unless there is no MP Transition card present).

Table 2–4lists the function of each control, port, and indicators.
