1.2 Internal Structure of Sierra M6-4
Sierra M6-4 supports up to four ports, each with Initiator (or Host) and Target (or Device) connections.
The Sierra M6-4 system has two halves, each implementing one or two functions. Each function can
control or work with a port.
Figure 1-1 Teledyne Lecroy Sierra M6-4 System Functions
The following table describes each function at a port:
Function Symbol Description
Analyzer Capture and analysis of traffic
Host Emulator Emulation of ‘Host’ or ‘Initiator’
Device Emulator Emulation of ‘Device’ or ‘Target’
Trainer Script-based training of traffic for Initiator/Host or Target/Device
Jammer
Script-based impairment of traffic for Initiator/Host or
Target/Device
This document uses these symbols to show functions in the Port Configuration.
To configure the system ports, you specify the function at each port. This document describes the
most common and useful configurations. Other configurations either are not useful or are equivalent
to a simpler configuration listed in this document.
Though each function has a specific application user interface, you can set port configuration in the
Port Configuration dialog, which is in all application user interfaces.
