Figure 6.2 In-band management example
As illustrated in
, ETH1000-SW-COM can be used for in-band management over TCP/IP.
In the example we have one location with two frames containing multiple ETH1000-SW-COM and
one Multicon GYDA, and two other locations with ETH1000-SW-COM, but no Multicon GYDA.
The internal control bus in the frame can only have one master. In location 1 Multicon GYDA must
be the master, and all ETH1000-SW-COM cards must be configured as slaves using DIP switch 8.
The frames in location 2 and 3 doesn’t have a Multicon GYDA and will instead be controlled by
Multicon GYDA in location 1. For this to happen, one ETH1000-SW-COM on each location must
be configured as master using DIP switch 8. In addition one of the ETH1000-SW-COM cards in
location 1 must be configured to connect to location 2 and 3. This is done on the Multicon GYDA
web interface.
Warning: ETH1000-SW-COM doesn’t do any address translation. All
sub-racks must be configured with a unique frame address!
In-band management is sending data using TCP/IP. For this to work each ETH1000-SW-COM card
must be configured with proper IP settings. For cards on the same location as Multicon GYDA, IP
configuration is easily done using Multicon GYDA web interface.
