NOTE
Read the information in this chapter thoroughly before you attempt to install or remove any BlackDiamond 10K
series I/O modules.
BlackDiamond 10K series input/output (I/O) modules consist of a printed circuit board mounted on a
metal panel that acts as the insertion vehicle in a BlackDiamond 10K system chassis. The module carrier
also includes ejector/injector levers and captive retaining screws at each end of the module front panel.
I/O Modules
This section describes the BlackDiamond 10K series I/O modules, including:
●
G60T Module
●
G60X Module
●
G20X Module
●
10G6X Module
●
10G2X Module
No configuration information is stored on the I/O modules; all configuration information is stored on
the MSM(s).
When the BlackDiamond 10K series switch is powered on, the software generates a default
configuration for any slots that contain I/O modules. The default configuration allows the I/O module
ports to participate in the VLAN named default. The default configuration for the I/O module is not
preserved unless you explicitly save the configuration to nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM).
You can configure parameters of the I/O module after it is installed or you can preconfigure a slot for a
certain type of module and configuration. The preconfigured information is applied to the module after
it is inserted. If you preconfigure a slot for a specific module type, and then insert a different type of
module, the module reverts to its default configuration.
