User’s Guide
Perhaps the best way to remember a frame sync card’s IP address is to label its backplane
module with the IP address.
You can upgrade the firmware in a frame sync card the same way you upgrade any other I/O
card. Refer to the
MRC User’s Guide for information.
Cabling
After you place frame sync cards in your router frame and assign their IP addresses, connect the
Ethernet ports of the frame sync cards to an Ethernet switch using Ethernet cable. The configu-
ration PC on which you use either iControl-Solo or the browser application must be able to
access the subnet used by the frame sync cards your are configuring.
It is not necessary for all frame sync cards to be on the same subnet.
It is not necessary for frame sync cards to be connected unless you are configuring them.
There is no relationship between the network(s) used by the frame sync cards and the network
used by the router’s control cards.
Port Numbering
Backplanes and cards are installed “upside down” in the lower bays of NV8576 frames. In the
upper bays and in the other NV8500 routers, backplanes and cards are installed right side up.
This drawing shows the port ordering for a frame sync input backplane:
The value of n = (S – 1) × 9, where S is the logical slot number (and not the labeled slot number).
See
Slot Order for Port Numbering on page 37.
For example, in logical slot 17, the first in the lower bay of an NV8576 frame. ports range from
145 to 154, with port 145 being unused.
