Pressing the reset button causes a hard reset by immediately rebooting the Acme Packet 1100.
After the reset button is released, the Acme Packet 1100 begins its boot sequence and loads the
configured software file.
T1/E1 Connector(s) (Optional)
The optional T1/E1 ports allow for connection to TDM connections. The T1/E1 port is an
RJ48C port available on a PCIe card that mounts in the spare slot on the rear of the chassis.
EXT (s0p1) Ethernet Port
The EXT 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port allows for connection to a SIP trunk from a service
provider. The INT and EXT Ethernet ports are media ports.
The EXT LNK LED and EXT ACT LED indicate the respective link and activity over the EXT
Ethernet port on the rear of the chassis. See the section on Network Management Ports for
further information on the meaning and use of these LEDs as they pertain to the EXT port.
INT (s0p0) Ethernet Port
The INT 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port allows for connection to an internal network (e.g., IPBX).
The INT and EXT Ethernet ports are media ports.
The INT LNK LED and INT ACT LED indicate the respective link and activity over the INT
Ethernet port on the rear of the chassis. See the section on Network Management Ports for
further information on the meaning and use of these LEDs as they pertain to the INT port.
NET MGT (wancom0) Ethernet Port
The NET MGT 10/100 Mbps Ethernet port allows for configuring the Acme Packet 1100 and
for providing high availability (HA) for the chassis. Two Acme Packet 1100s can connect from
their respective NET MGT Ethernet port to a single Ethernet switch and be configured in an
active/standby HA configuration.
The NET MGT LNK LED and NET MGT ACT LED indicate the respective link and activity
over the NET MGT Ethernet port on the rear of the chassis. See the section on Network
Management Ports for further information on the meaning and use of these LEDs as they
pertain to the NET MGT Ethernet port.
USB Port
The USB port is reserved for software-enabled applications such as firmware and system
upgrades and for remote access by customer service representatives. The USB port is for Acme
Packet use only and is not to be used by the customer unless directed by a customer service
representative.
SER MGT (COM2) System Console Port
The SER MGT port provides system console access to the Acme Packet 1100 via a console
over an RS-232C serial connection. The SER MGT console port is useful for customers who
want permanent console access to the Acme Packet 1100.
Console port communication is used for administration and maintenance purposes from a
central location. Tasks conducted over a console port include:
•
Creating the initial connection to the Acme Packet 1100
•
Accessing and using all functionality available via the ACLI
•
Performing in-lab system maintenance
