Q: Is it possible to share a console session between two or
more operators.
A: Yes, the CCA-3074 supports a session sharing feature
which can be configured. You can share a single session
between multiple users at one time. All operators may
enter console commands, and each of the operators
sharing the session will see the results of the command
entered. This option can be used for training, joint
problem determination, and disaster recovery situations.
Q: Does the CCA-3074 support hot swappable cards?
A: No. Only the power supplies, fans, and hard drives are hot
swappable.
Q: How many coax devices can be supported by a single
CCA-3074?
A: Any or all of the sessions supported by the CCA-3074 can
be realized as coax sessions if needed. Each CSS32 coax
subsystem supports 32 physical coax devices. Multiple
CSS32 coax subsystems can be connected to the CCA-
3074. It is even possible to connect multiple coax devices
to share a single console session if desired.
Q: How is the CSS32 coax subsystem connected to the
CCA-3074?
A: The actual connection makes use of an Ethernet
compatible twisted pair cable. By using a null crossover
cable, the coax subsystem can be isolated from your
corporate network providing additional reliability.
Communication over this connection makes use of IP.
You can also run the connection through any standard
Ethernet switch or hub.
Q: Is it possible to run multiple console sessions from a
single coax device?
A: Although the CSS32 is configured in the factory to
support a single session from each coax device, it is
possible to run as many as 10 concurrent sessions from a
single coax device.
