AX/4000

IP (Layer 3) Gigabit Ethernet SFP Interface

Product Overview

The AX/4000 IP Gigabit Ethernet SFP Interface allows
users to connect their mAX or mAX-IP test module to a
Gigabit Ethernet for Layer 3 IP testing.

AX/4000 Installation

The interface plugs into the mating connectors on the
mAX or mAX-IP test module. Two screws firmly attach the
faceplate to the front of the AX/4000 Mainframe or XLP
Portable Chassis. The test module supplies power to the
port interface.

LED Indicator

The faceplate has eight LED indicators. Refer to the face­plate photo for a description of each LED.

Software Control

The port interface may be controlled via the AX/4000
System Software running on a Microsoft Windows-based
PC or a Sun Solaris-based workstation. Users can also
control the interface using the AX/4000 Tcl/C Function
Library Software package. See the other side of this sheet
for a list of software-controlled interface functions.

Setup

The interface’s operation mode determines the data path
for AX/4000 generated and analyzed traffic. In Normal
Mode the AX/4000 generates outgoing traffic to the
transmit port and analyzes incoming traffic from the
receive port. In Line Monitor Mode the port analyzes

oming traffic and transmits the same traffic back out

inc
through the transmit connector with no modifications. In
Diagnostic Loopback Mode the interface provides an

A

a

ernal transmit-to-receive loopback path to analyze

int
AX/4000 generated traffic without requiring an external
loopback cable.

ation

Oper

The Gigabit Ethernet SFP Interface module supports 19
interface-specific counters such as transmitted and
received broadcast and unicast frames. The full interface­specific counter set is detailed in the Indicators and
Statistics section of the data sheet. A different set of sta­tistics is also maintained by the mAX and mAX-IP test
module.

mAX-IP Power Bundles

These bundles include all the hardware and licenses
required to generate and analyze IP test scenarios using
the mAX-IP Test Module (500002H(CE)). All mAX-IP test
modules come with the IPv6 Test Option and are licensed

or Ethernet, ATM, Frame Relay (FR) and Point-to-point

f
