Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 pre-E, E, and M modules feature set

Each Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 pre-E, E, or M module consists of a Backplane Forwarding Module (BFM) with common application speciﬁc integrated circuits (ASIC) on each module. These ASICs provide a forwarding engine and local storage of Layer 2 to 4 forwarding tables. Each forwarding engine provides lookups, resolves addresses and sends packets through the switch fabric to a destination port without CPU intervention. The forwarding engine also ﬁlters packets against current prioritization policies and can set prioritization information in the internal packet header.

The BFM is also equipped with eight priority queues per port. You can use either of the following two prioritization schemes:

•

Strict priority

•

Weighted Round Robin (WRR)

Strict priority guarantees the highest priority. WRR gives priority based on a round robin algorithm. For more information about prioritization schemes see Network Design Guidelines (313197-E).

Output buffer memory consists of 8 MB of memory allocated to each Gigabit Ethernet port or shared among eight 10/100 ports.

Note that Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 does not support pre-E modules.

Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module feature set

Each Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module (Release 4.0 and later) consists of a Distributed Processing Module (DPM) as well as a Port Interface Module (PIM). The PIM consists of various Media Access Controls

(MAC) and Physical Layer Controls (PHY) as well as the physical interfaces for direct network connections. A single PIM interconnects with a single DPM to form a Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Module. Modules with DPMs are R modules.

Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 modules that use the BFM are pre-E, E, or M modules. These modules are described in "Metro Ethernet Routing

Switch 8600 pre-E, E, and M modules feature set" (page 21).

Each DPM contains either two or three lanes, depending on the module. Both the 8630GBR and the 8683XLR modules consist of three lanes. The 8648GTR module consists of two lanes. Each lane is also known as a Flexible Forwarding Engine (FFE). The FFE lane is the basis for the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R modules. The FFE lane consists of:

•

Two FlexibleRoute Switch Processors—ingress Route Switch Processor 2 (RSP2) and egress RSP2

• One egress packet handling ASIC–F2E

•

One ingress packet handling ASIC–F2I

"Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module packet ﬂow on ingress and egress" (page 22) shows the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module

packet ﬂow on ingress and egress.

Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module packet ﬂow on ingress and egress

The ingress RSP2 performs lookups, ﬁltering and classiﬁcation operations, and modiﬁes the IP and MAC headers within the body of the packet to reﬂect routing and switching decisions.

M mode conﬁguration requirements 23

The RSP2 determines the information the fabric needs to carry the packet to the correct egress point and determines the physical egress port. As part of the lookup process, the RSP2 may also determine and record the egress queue ID and pass it to the egress RSP2.

Encapsulation is the most signiﬁcant operation that the egress RSP2 performs. To specify the egress queue, the queuing and trafﬁc shaping functions use:

• encapsulation information from the egress RSP2

•

MAC and IP packet headers

•

Quality of Service (QoS) bits

The F2E egress ASIC supports the FFE QoS, including the functions of random early drop, queuing and selection, trafﬁc shaping, and communicating to other similar R modules. Similarly, the F2I ingress ASIC provides packet policing and marking.

Each DPM also consists of the following:

•

One Fast TAPmux (FTAP) interface to the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Switch Fabric Modules

•

One Feedback Output Queue Manager (FOQ) Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA)

The FTAP ASIC connects each DPM to the CPU/Switch Fabric modules through the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 switching backplane.

The FOQ Management system collects information about the state of queues, packet storage elements, and the fabric. This information is available to the F2I at the point at which packets are segmented for entry to the fabric. When congestion exists, Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 modules with a BFM (pre-E, E, and M modules) use fabric feedback information only at this point to drop packets.

The FOQ mechanism also provides information about the state of each of the egress queues and on the fullness of the F2E reassembly function buffers and queues. The F2E reports this information to the FOQ Manager FPGA on each module. The constellation of these FOQ FPGAs (one per DPM) drives a shared backplane bus that each FPGA senses. Therefore, each R module has pertinent information about the state of all other R modules in the system.

M mode conﬁguration requirements

M mode supports the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 M module feature set. Full support of M mode requires the following conﬁguration conditions:

•

The chassis must include at least one 8691omSF CPU module.

24 Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 modules

•

All modules installed in the chassis must minimally support 128 000 table entries. M modules (8632TXM, 8648TXM, 8608GBM, 8608GTM, 8683POSM, 8672ATME, 8672ATMM, 8681XLR, and 8681XLW modules) support 128 000 table entries.

•

M mode must be enabled. If you enable M mode and one or more of the modules installed in the

chassis is an E module (32 000 table entries), the E modules become disabled. This protects the system forwarding tables from losing entries. For information about enabling or disabling M mode, see Managing Platform Operations (315545-E).

If your system has M modules, E modules, or pre-E modules, see Managing Platform Operations (315545-E) for information about how to conﬁgure the switch to boot in the desired mode.

R mode conﬁguration requirements

R mode supports the Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 R module feature set. Full support of R mode requires the following conﬁguration conditions:

•

The system must include only R modules. You can have a system with a mix of R, M, E, or pre-E modules conﬁgured in R mode. However, the M, E, or pre-E modules are not enabled. For information about conﬁguring R modules in R mode, see Managing Platform Operations (315545-E).

•

The system must include at least one 8692omSF CPU module. R modules do not boot with the 8691omSF CPU module.

•

R modules require Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Release 4.0 or later.

•

R mode must be enabled. For information about enabling R mode, see Managing Platform Operations (315545-E).

If the system is currently in default mode or M mode with CPU/SF 1 as the master and CPU/SF 2 as the standby, and you enable R mode on CPU/SF 1, save the conﬁguration and reboot, CPU/SF 2 comes up as the master and CPU/SF 1 as the standby. If you then enable R mode on the new master (CPU/SF 2), the standby (CPU/SF 1) goes ofﬂine and remains ofﬂine.

For information about how to conﬁgure QoS, Filters, Policing, and Shaping on R modules, see Nortel Metro Ethernet Routing Switch 8600 Conﬁguration — QoS and Trafﬁc Filters (NN46220-508).
