AP: / unit-x / iports / iport-b
The COGE5 internal backplane Ethernet ports (iport-b) connect every ser-
vice unit plugged in the same network element via the GbE star. The back-
plane ports are 1GbE electrical ports. The speed of the ports is fixed.
The characteristics are identical for all internal ports iport-b:
• b = 1 … 10, 12 … 21 in a XMC25,
• b = 7 … 10, 12 … 14 in a XMC23.
• b = 9… 10, 12 in a XMC22.
The internal port
• iport-13
can be used for the connection of a service unit or redundant core unit
plugged in slot 13. The iport-13 connecting the redundant core unit is only
used if the redundant core unit is running in the bootloader. Otherwise the
internal ports iport-51 and iport-53 are used, see below.
Please note:
Slot 13 can also hold a service unit.
• iport-11
is only available on the redundant core unit. The backplane port is a
1GbE electrical port. The speed of the port is fixed.
The iport-11 connecting the working core unit is only used if the working
core unit is running in the bootloader. Otherwise the internal ports
iport-51 and iport-53 are used, see below.
The internal ports
• iport-51, iport-53,
are available on the working and redundant core units. The backplane
ports are 10GbE electrical ports. The speed of the ports is fixed.
The iport-51 and iport-53 connecting the working and redundant core
units are used if the core units are running the unit application ESW. Oth-
erwise the internal port iport-11 or iport-13 is used, see above.
