Chapter 1: Overview of the SSR-600
• The SWPIM-DDS provides a 56 Kbps or 64 Kbps Digital Data
Service (DDS) connection. The SWPIM-DDS supports remote CSU diagnostic or 64 Kbps clear channel loopback and non-latching remote DSU diagnostic loopback.
• The SWPIM-E1 provides an E1 interface through a front panel RJ45
port and includes a built-in CSU/DSU for direct connection to an E1 line. The SWPIM-E1 provides both Full E1 or Fractional E1 using 56 or 64 Kbps Time Slots with a total throughput of up to 2.048 Mbps (1.984 Mbps payload bandwidth).
• The SWPIM-BRI provides an Integrated Services Digital Network
(ISDN) 64 or 128 Kbps Basic Rate Interface (BRI) for the SSR-600, and supports both the S/T-interface and the U-interface. The SWPIM-BRI can be used for Dial-up access. The SWPIM-BRI can also provide an ISDN back-up link for a remote site or branch office when the main SWPIM for a frame relay or leased line loses a connection or becomes disabled. An NT-1 adapter is necessary for this interface in the United States.

1.1.2 Ethernet LAN Connection

The SSR-600 provides 10/100 Mbps Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 support through two fixed front panel Fast Ethernet ports.

1.1.3 FLASH EEPROMs

1.3 OPTIONAL FEATURES

Rack Mounting Capabilities - The SSR-600 can be installed in a
19-inch rack with the optional mounting brackets and screws (Cabletron part number SSR-600-RCK-KIT). Refer to Chapter 3 for complete rack mounting instructions.
SSR-600-ECM Auxiliary Card - Designed to authenticate, encrypt,
generate public keys and/or compress data packets stored in the host platform’s shared memory, the SSR-600-ECM will also decrypt and expand packets that have been encrypted and compressed.
This optional hardware data compression/encryption module accelerates data compression for the SSR-600 over Nailed-up PPP, or ISDN and Frame Relay with PPP riding underneath them. Depending on the packet type and size, hardware data compression provides data compression for enhanced throughput on each T-1 SWPIM interface. To use the hardware data compression module, compatible equipment such as another SSR-600, or other vendors equipment which conforms to the applicable standards, must be in use at both ends of the WAN link. When the hardware data compression module is installed on the board, it automatically assumes the compression task from software. There is no configuration necessary to prioritize hardware over software compression.
SWPIMs - The SWPIMs are the interface for the WAN connections for
the SSR-600. Available as listed in the Release Notes. Refer to
Section 1.1.1 for details.

Chapter 3: Installation

3.5 CONNECTING TO THE POWER SOURCE

NOTE
The SSR-600 has universal power supplies. This allows you to connect the SSR-600 to power sources of 100–125 or 200–240 Vac, at 50 or 60 Hz. The voltage is automatically sensed when the power cord is plugged in.
To connect the SSR-600 to the power source, perform the following steps:
1. Plug the power cord into the back panel of the SSR-600.
2. Plug the other end of the power cord into a grounded wall outlet.
NOTE
The SSR-600-D may use either one of the power supplies. When only one is plugged in, there is no redundancy. When both power supplies are plugged in, one is redundant, so that if the power supply in use fails , the other will supply power to the unit to keep it in operation. It is recommended that the power cords be plugged into two separate power lines in order to increase the redundancy factor.
The SSR-600-S has only one power cord for its single power supply, therefore needs only one power connection.
3. Verify that the PWR LED is either solid green or solid yellow,
indicating that the SSR-600 is receiving power. After the SSR-600 runs a self test, the CPU LED goes solid green indicating normal operation. If the LED does not go solid green in a reasonable period of time, this indicates that the processor is faulty. Contact Cabletron Systems (refer to Getting Help in the Introduction).

3.6 CONNECTING TO THE NETWORK

This section provides the procedures for connecting the Ethernet ports of the SSR-600 to the network, and directions for information on connecting the WAN ports. For more information, refer to Chapter 2.

3.6.1 Connecting to the Fast Ethernet Ports

The two fixed front panel ports of the SSR-600 are 10/100 Fast Ethernet ports with internal crossovers. When connecting a workstation to the SSR-600, use a straight-through cable. When connecting other networking devices, such as a bridge, repeater, or router to the SSR-600, use a crossover cable.
NOTE
Category 5 Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cabling with an impedance between 85 and 111 ohms. Category 3 cable may be used if the connection is only going to be used for 10 Mbps.
Connect a twisted pair segment to one of the Fast Ethernet ports on the SSR-600 as follows:
1. Ensure that the device connected to the other end of the segment is
powered ON.
2. Connect the twisted pair segment to the SSR-600 by inserting the RJ45
connector on the twisted pair segment into the desired RJ45 port as shown in Figure 3-10. Do not connect a cable connected to an Ethernet port to the console port.

The thermal switch will close if the temperature inside the device exceeds 65°C when the SSR-600 is operating. The thermal switch then notifies the processor that the temperature in the SSR-600 exceeded 65°C. This information can be used to send a trap and/or log a message.
Switch Bank
The four-position switch bank has the functions shown in Table 4-4. The SSR-600 must be reset or powered down for the firmware to recognize the settings of the switches, and then implement any changes.
Table 4-4 Four Position Switch Bank Functions
Switch Function
1 Force download 2 Restore defaults 3 Currently unused 4 Currently unused
The switch is used for the following functions:
• Force download is used when the user wants to force the SSR-600 to
download a new image at bootup.
• Restore Defaults is used to return the SSR-600 to the factory
configuration.

The CPU stays OFF for an extended amount of time, and the power (PWR) light remains on. The CPU is in an unknown state.
• Contact Cabletron Systems (refer to Getting Help in the
Introduction).
Processor (CPU) LED is blinking Red
The processor has detected a fault condition, or has failed boot up diagnostics.
• Contact Cabletron Systems (refer to Getting Help in the
Introduction).

4.4 TROUBLESHOOTING THE LAN

Transmit LED is flashing Red
Collisions are normal in an Ethernet network, however, increased collisions may indicate that the network is out of specification.
Receive (RCV) LED is OFF
• Check that the SSR-600 and the device at the other end of the
segment are powered up.
• Check that the port is enabled. Refer to the appropriate Cabletron
Systems software manual to enable the port.
• Verify that the RJ45 connectors on the twisted pair segment have
the correct pinouts.
• Check the cable for continuity.
• Check that the cable meets the specifications for dB loss.
