SmartSwitch 6500 Modules

  Introduction

1.1

SMARTSWITCH 6500 MODULES

This section is provided to give you a detailed understanding of the function and operation of each of the SmartSwitch 
6500’s modules.

1.1.1

Cell Storage Module (CSM)

CSMs provide the main switching fabric for the SmartSwitch 6500. The CSM also provides cell storage and output 
queuing, and dynamically shares memory among all active connections. The CSM monitors overall utilization of 
shared memory and communicates this information to the TSM modules, where it’s used in making decisions about 
incoming cell-acceptance. The CSM controls TSM access to the backplane cell data busses at both ingress 
(TSM-to-CSM) and egress (CSM-to-TSM). The CSM can also provide clock and sync signal generation for network 
clocking.

For redundancy, the SmartSwitch 6500 supports up to two CSMs in a single 6C110 chassis. When one CSM is active, 
the other CSM is in standby mode. If the active CSM fails, the standby CSM can be made to assumes the active role. 

Note

CSMs must reside in SmartSwitch 6C110 chassis slots nine (9) or ten (10).

1.1.2

Translation and Scheduling Module (TSM)

TSMs are responsible for SmartSwitch 6500 traffic management functions. For example, TSMs perform header 
translation for ingress and egress cell traffic, provide port queue management for ABR (including EPD and PPD during 
congestion), and EFCI marking for forward congestion. TSMs are responsible for per-port/per-class queue 
management, cell scheduling and both physical and logical multicast support. TSMs also provide system interfaces for 
the CPU modules, the SAR, and all I/O modules.

The SmartSwitch 6C110 chassis can contain up to eight TSMs, two of which can contain CPU modules. Also, each 
TSM can support up to two IOMs; depending on the interface type, this provides each TSM with up to eight ATM ports.

1.1.3

CPU Module

CPU module are mounted on TSMs as a daughter cards. The CPU module runs the system software, and provides both 
intra-switch and inter-switch communication for configuration and monitoring. The CPU module is also responsible 
for providing both a serial and Ethernet interface, through which the user interface and network management facilities 
are accessed.

Note

While the CPU module provides the serial and Ethernet interfaces, the external 
connectors for these interfaces reside on the CSM module.
