Description
Control
Port ETH3,
Control
Port Frame
(FRM)
The FRM port is a bridged port through the Densité frame controller. The physical frame
controller's Ethernet port must be connected to the network for this interface to work.
Note:
The
FRM port address must not contain any of the frame controller's IP addresses.
Control ports can be used for firmware upgrades:
If the card is installed in a Densité 3+FR1 or Densité 3+FR4 frame with a CPU-ETH3 Basic
controller, the ETH3 port must be used. Note: Before upgrading through the ETH3 port, you
will need to configure ETH3 through local menu or install the iControl bundle for the current
firmware version in order to configure ETH3. Once ETH3 has been configured, you will be
able to upgrade/downgrade the card and its iControl bundle.
If the card is installed in a Densité 3+FR4 frame with a CPU-ETH3 Standard or Advanced
controller, the fir
mware upgrade is performed using the frame controller’s Ethernet port
(FRM).
Mode
Set the mode to assign an IP address to an Ethernet port.
Off:
Ethernet port disabled, it will not be used.
Auto (DHCP):
Ethernet port enabled with automatic configuration using a network's DHCP
server.
Static:
Ethernet port enabled with static user specified configuration (
IP Address
,
Subnet
Mask
, and
Gateway
).
IP Address
When
Mode
is set to
Static
, set the card’s IP address.
Subnet
Mask
When
Mode
is set to
Static
, set the subnet mask for your network.
Gateway
When
Mode
is set to
Static
, set the network switch’s IP address.
MAC
address
Shows the Ethernet port’s MAC Address.
LLDP
Shows the Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP) TLV values. LLDP is used to advertise the
identity, capabilities, and neighbors on a LAN. Click
Details
for any one Ethernet port to view
the LLDP TLV values. See Figure 49.
Test
Address
Test the IP connectivity to a device (on the same network) from any one Ethernet port for
troubleshooting purposes. Enter the device’s IP address and click
Ping
. In
Status
, a message
shows the ping’s IP connectivity status.
