FCC

The equipment provided byCabletronSystems,Inc. anddocumentedinthismanual hasbeen tested

and found to comply with the limits for a Class Adigital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC

Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference

when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment.

This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and

used in accordance with the installation manual, may cause harmful interference to radio commu-

nications. Operationof this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference,

in which casethe user will berequired to, at his/her own expense, take thenecessary measures to

eliminate the interference.

To ensure compliance with the Class A FCC limits, use only shielded cables with this equipment.

Any cableinstalled above aceiling or below a floormust beof a material and construction

approved by UL for that application.

DOC (Canada)

This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital

apparatus set out in theRadio InterferenceRegulations of the Canadian Department ofCommuni-

cations.

ii Frame Relay Module

Installing the Frame Relay Module

The Frame Relay Module (FRM)is shipped with acable that connects the

module’s RJ45 LAN (Ethernet or Token Ring, depending on the model) con-

nector to a LANinterface, located either on an interface module in the Smart-

Switch 9000 or external to the rack. Ifthe FRM will connect to an interface

module in the SmartSwitch 9000, install the FRM into the nearest available

slot. Otherwise, the FRM can be installed into any available slot.

Toinstall the FRM, follow these steps:

1. Remove the blank panel covering theslot.

All slots without modules must be covered when the

SmartSwitch 9000 is operational, to ensure proper

airflow and cooling.

2. Carefully remove the FRM from the shipping box. (Save thebox and

packingmaterials in the eventthe FRM must be reshipped.)

3. Attach one end of theESD wrist strap (packaged withthe SmartSwitch

9000 chassis) to your wrist. Plug the other end into the ESD Wrist Strap

Grounding receptacle in the lower right corner of the SmartSwitch 9000

Chassis shown in Figure 1.

4. Remove the FRM fromits anti-static bag. Observe all precautions to

prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD).

5. Carefully examine the FRM, checking for damage. If any damage exists,

DO NOT install the module. Instead, contact Cabletron Systems Tech-

nical Support:

Phone: 603-332-9400

FAX: 603-337-3075

E-mail: support@ctron.com

6. Beforeinstalling the FRM intothechassis,ensurethat the bottomandtop

plastic tabs are unlocked. Slidethe card into an availableslot and ensure

that the circuit card is between the card guides, as shown in Figure 1.

Check both the upper and lowertracks. Take care that the module slides

in straight and engages the backplane connectors properly.Lock down the

top and bottom plastic tabs at the same time, applying even pressure.

Installing the I/O Box Assemblies

Each of the three RLPs (RISC-based line processors) in the FRM has two

attached LICs (Line Interface Cards), shown in Figure 2. LIC 1 on each RLP

supports ports 0–3, and LIC 2 supports ports 4–7. Each LIC requires a 4-port

I/O box, as well asa cable fromthe RLP to the box. (Both are included with the

Frame Relay Module.)

Figure 2 Cards

The RLPs and LAN card are mounted into a bus located between

the two lower cards and the two upper cards.For this reason, RLPs

1 and 2 are upside-down from RLP 1.

The FRM is shipped with apairof mounting rails that will hold the I/O boxes.

Mountthe rails to the cabinet frame, and mount the I/O boxes to the rails,using

thehardwareincluded with theassemblies. SeeFigure3.Note thattherails will

hold eight I/O boxes, but no more than six are needed with an FRM.

Installation & Setup Guide 3

Figure 3 I/O Boxes and Cabling

Theexample in Figure 3shows howthe cabling would appear if the I/O boxes

wereassociated with, left to right, RLP0/LIC1 through RLP 2/LIC 2. Cabling

between the FRM and the I/O boxes might appear neater with a different

arrangement; however, the one shown in the figure provides the clearest iden-

tification of the I/O boxes after all cabling is installed.

LAN Adapter Cable

Connect oneend of the LAN cable to the RJ45 connector on the FRM LAN

card(seeFigure 2), and the other end to the LAN interface module. Be sure to

route thecable soas not to obstruct the ability of an installer to remove other

modules at some future date.

RLP Cables

1. Plug one end of each RLP cable (91-460-201) into an RLP connector on

the FRM. Connect the other end of the RLP cable into a 60 Pin I/O box

connector, as shown in Figure 3. (The ports arelabeled on the I/O boxes.)

Tighten the retaining screws.

2. Each RLP connector is labeled to identify its physical interface: RS-232,

V.35 and/or RS-422. Interface cables, listed in Table 1 connected to the I/

O box must be appropriate to the labeled interface of the RLP connector

towhich the I/O box is connected. (RS-422interfaces includeRS-449 and

X.21.)

Plug the interface cables into the I/O boxes, and tighten the retaining

screws. Secure the cables to the cabinet frame in such a way as to provide

a strain relief for the connectors at the I/O box end.

3. Plug theotherends of the cables into the appropriate devices: modems,

user devices, extender cables, etc.

Checking for Proper Operation

This procedure requires an asynchronous terminal and keyboard

connected (locally or remotely) to the COM1 port on the FRM.

1. Switch on the async terminal (if necessary).

2. Observe the SMB and CPU LEDs (shown in the following figure) on the

Frame Relay Module. Both should be green.

Figure 4 LEDs

3. As the FRM boots (starts), aseries of messages track the loading of the

software. Thesemessages are writtento afile named BOOTRPT.TXT. If

there appears to be aproblem during boot-up,the contents ofthis file can

be displayed (as described later), to help determine the problem.

Whenthe bootprocess is complete, ascreen similarto Figure5 willbe dis-

played. (Nostatus will be shownuntilthe software is configured.)

4. Now someone must configure the software from the async terminal.

Records must be configured to identify thelocations and operating param-

eters of the FRM and its ports. Configuration of these records is docu-

mented inthe Frame Relay Module User Guide.

If you want to proceed to the configuration screens, press [F1] at the Port

Status Display. When prompted, type (uppercase) NETLINK, then press

[Enter]. (NETLINK is specified as the password when the softwareis

installed. This can be changed in a menu operation.) This will display the

Main Menu.

To select a menuitem, press the letter displayed at theleft ofthe item.To

display a list of valid options at any point, press the [?] key.

If you want to display the BOOTRPT.TXT file, press [F], then [C]from the

Main Menu.

This completes the installation. If this FRM is the first one ina network that

contains otherFRMs running anolderrelease ofthe software, thenew software

can be downloaded to the other FRMs.

Updating Other Frame Relay Modules

To remotely update anotherFRM with softwarefromthe new FRM,follow this

procedure:

1. Make sureFileTransferIDs arespecified in the Node Defaults records of

both FRMs.

2. Press [C] at the On-Line Node Operations menu (or [B],[A], [C] from the

Main Menu).

3. When prompted, enter the FileTransfer ID and password of the node you

are updating.

4. Press [Y] or [N] when asked: Will the remote node be using any of IP, LLC2,

or IPX?

5. Press [Y] when asked: Areyousureyou want to doa remote software update?

The transfer process, repeated for each file, is as follows:

1. The originating nodewill send a message that includes the name and size

of the largest file to be sent. A request for theremote node's release

numberwill also be sent with the first filename. If the release numbers of

the sending and receiving nodes are incompatible, the transfer will not

occur, and an error message will be displayed. Ifthishappens, contact

your service representative.

2. The remote node will check to make sure there is enough disk space to

accept the file; ifnot, the connection will be clearedanda corresponding

message displayed. If there is enough disk space, the file will be trans-

ferred,and stored in the remote node undera temporary file nameuntil the

node verifies that the file is the expected size. (If it is not, the temporary

file will be deleted.)

3. If the temporary file is the expected size, the"old" file will be deleted and

the new file renamed.As the update progresses, you can press [F4] at any

timeto abortthe transfer andclear the connection.Oncetheupdate is com-

plete, the sending node will clearthe connection.
