Figure A-4 Acme Packet 6100 - Rear View
The Acme Packet 6100 NIU includes the following ports (from left to right).
•
Console—Provides serial access for administrative and maintenance purposes.
•
Alarm—Dry contact alarm port.
•
USB—For use only by Oracle personnel.
•
Mgmt0 to Mgmt2—The system uses these 10/100/1000 Base-T Ethernet ports for device
management functions. The first interface, Mgmt 0, is for ssh access to the ACLI. The
other two interfaces are used for state replication for High Availability (HA). For HA,
connect these interfaces directly using a crossover cable.
•
SFP+ ports—The system uses these 2 x 10GbE ports for signaling and media traffic.
The table below lists the labeling of each interface on the NIU, as well as the applicable
operation-type and port parameters in the phy-interface configuration element. Note that
the media interfaces are not uniquely labeled with the chassis silkscreen. The table
distinguishes between these using "left" and "right", with the perspective being the user
looking at the NIU panel.

Acme Packet 6300/6350 Physical Interfaces
The Acme Packet 6300/6350 integrates interfaces for console, alarm, USB, and network
management into the rear of the chassis, above the power supplies. The system also
includes three PHY slots.
Acme Packet 6300/6350 Management Interfaces
Management interfaces include 3 x 10/100/1000 Ethernet interfaces labeled Mgmt 0, 1, and
2. (These interfaces are often referred to as wancom0, 1, and 2.) Mgmt 0, is for SSH access
to the ACLI. The other two interfaces are used for state replication for High Availability (HA).
For HA, connect these interfaces directly using a crossover cable.
