This equipment uses, generates, and can radiate radio frequency energy and if not installed in
accordance with the operator’s manual, may cause harmful interference to radio communications.
Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference in which case the user
will be required to correct the interference at his own expense.
WARNING:
party responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to operate the equipment.
This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital
Changes or modifications made to this device which are not expressly approved by the
VCCI Notice
This is a Class A product based on the standard of the Voluntary Control Council for Interference by
Information Technology Equipment (VCCI). If this equipment is used in a domestic environment,
radio disturbance may arise. When such trouble occurs, the user may be required to take corrective
actions.
DOC Notice
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio noise emissions from digital
apparatus set out in the Radio Interference Regulations of the Canadian Department of
Communications.

Introduction
The 9E132-15, 9E133-36, 9E138-12, and 9E138-36 MicroLAN™ Switch Modules,
shown in Figure 1-1, are four channel Ethernet bridges and routers. Up to three
front panel Ethernet networks can be connected to this module and they can be
bridged/routed to any other Ethernet segment and to any other SmartSwitch
9000 module via the FNB bus (acting as the fourth port).
Chapter 1
Features
The 9E132-15, 9E133-36, 9E138-12, and 9E138-36 MicroLAN™ Modules will
NOTE
be referred to collectively as the Ethernet MicroLan Modules.
Processor
The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules are equipped with an advanced Intel i960
microprocessor. This microprocessor provides a platform for all management
functions within a scalable RISC-based architecture.
System Management
The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules provide interfaces to the two System
Management Buses (SMB-1 and SMB-10) for intermodule management.
Connectivity
The 9E132-15 provides four RJ-45 ports and one EPIM slot for each of the three
channels. See Chapter 5 for information on the use of EPIMs.
The 9E133-36 has one 50-pin front panel for each of the three channels, providing
12 individual Ethernet connections each.
The 9E138-12 provides four ST-type multi-mode fiber optic connections for each
of the three channels, for a total of 12 connections.
1-1
Introduction
The 9E138-36 provides 12 ST-type multi-mode fiber optic connections for each of
the three channels, for a total of 36 connections.
All ports function as repeaters for incoming data which retime and retransmit all
packets.
Bridging/Routing
The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules provide Bridging/Routing between the
front panel channels and/or to any other module in the chassis via FNB -1 or
FNB -2 of the FNB bus. IEEE 802.1d Spanning Tree Protocol is supported in all
bridging functions.
Management Information Base (MIB) Support
All concentrator modules provide MIB support including the following:
NOTE
•IETF FDDI MIB
•IETF MIB II
•Cabletron Enterprise MIBs
For a complete list of supported MIBs, refer to the release notes provided in the
module package.
RMON
RMON support (RFC1271).
LANVIEW LEDs
The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules use LANVIEW: the Cabletron Systems
built-in visual diagnostic and status monitoring system. With LANVIEW LEDs,
you can quickly identify the device, port, and physical layer status at a glance.
Hot Swapping
The Ethernet MicroLan Switch Modules can be installed or removed from the
chassis while the SmartSwitch 9000 is powered up without affecting the operation
of the remaining modules in the chassis.
