Alpine 3800 Series Switch Management
Module
This chapter describes:
• Installing SMMi Modules on page 155
• Removing SMMi Modules on page 156
NOTE
Read the information in this chapter thoroughly before you attempt to install or remove the Alpine
Switch Management Module (SMMi).
The Switch Management Module (SMMi) is responsible for upper-layer protocol processing and switch
management functions in the Alpine 3808 and Alpine 3804 chassis. The SMMi can store two
ExtremeWare software images (version 6.0 or later) and two switch configurations.
NOTE
The Alpine 3802 switch does not require a separate Switch Management Module. All upper-layer
protocol processing and switch management functions are part of the integrated Switch Management
Module that is located in the chassis.
Figure 72 shows the front view of the SMMi.
Figure 72: Switch Management Module (SMMi)
The SMMi module consists of a printed circuit board mounted on a metal panel that acts as the
insertion vehicle in an Alpine 3808 and Alpine 3804 chassis. The module carrier also includes
ejector/injector levers and captive retaining screws at each end of the module front panel.
