Management
Processor
Module
The Management Processor (MP) module contains a processor,
volatile and non-volatile RAM, and an Ethernet interface for
administration.
The MP module is the administrative engine of a CPX shelf. It acts
as a database for the shelf and as the administrative interface for
JetCraft, JetVision and other management interfaces.
The MP module consists of two individual cards ( Figure 2–8 ):
Management Processing card—processor and
interface connections for monitoring redundant CP
modules.
MP Transition card—I/O ports for connecting to the local
area network and other peripheral devices.
The MP module hosts the CPX Management Entity, which features
and supports:
Configuration, fault, and security management for the CPX
Configuration management, fault management, and remote
software upgrade of the IADs
High-performance, memory-resident database for
configurations persistence
Real-time performance and error statics
Two Ethernet ports are provided on the MP Card. Each port
provides one connection to the CP A and B modules, configured to
run at 100BaseTX Full Duplex. Each Ethernet port supports
10BaseT, 10BaseT Full Duplex, 100BaseTX, and 100BaseTX Full
Duplex media types. It can detect the network media type to which
it is connected, when the AutoDetect mode is selected
(recommended in most cases).
On the MP Transition card, there are also 2 Ethernet connections, 1
and 2. Ethernet 1 is enabled and Ethernet 2 is disabled. On the front
of the MP, there is also a third Ethernet connection marked
“Ethernet”, which is the same as Ethernet 1 on the back. The back
port is active, but the front Ethernet port is not active (unless there
is no MP Transition card present).
Table 2–4 lists the function of each control, port, and indicators.
