CSX7000

The CSX7000 is Cabletron’s High Availability, Remote Access Switch. Because it is a multi-system

platform with many unique features, we are devoting this entire supplement to its description.

This supplemental guide includes the following chapters:

• What is the CSX7000?

This chapter provides an overview of the CSX7000 including a brief description of its features.

• Platform Description

This chapter details CSX7000 hardware, including a description of the front panel, back panel,

and internal platform components.

• CSX7000 Cabling

This chapter describes the cabling connections necessary for a single CSX7000, as well as a

cluster setup for multiple CSX7000s.

• Monitoring Systems

An optional management module, the EMS, provides environmental management for one or

more CSX7000s in a cluster. This chapter describes how to set up the module, and use it

appropriately to administer your system.

• CSX7000 Appendices

In the event you decide to use an SNMP agent for your EMS module, or install upgrade

modules to your existing CSX7000, these appendices provide the necessary information. They

describe:

• SNMP Agent Support

• EMS Installation

• Processor Module Installation

• Power Supply Replacement

CSX7000

OVERVIEW

The CSX7000, the high availability, remote access switch, is a multi-system platform intended for

large, central sites and Internet Service Providers. It is both modular and flexible, with capabilities

and performance to match the requirements of high-end network connectivity customers. The

CSX7000 supports a high density of LAN segments, ISDN BRI or PRI, and digital modems, as well

as RS232, V.35, Frame Relay and X.25 interfaces. It also offers an effective means of system

management through its optional Environmental Management System (EMS) module.

Modularity: An important feature of the CSX7000 is its ability to support multiple system groups.

Each group is a stand-alone CSX “system” based on a Pentium processor module. Use the sixteen

ISA slots of the CSX7000 as a single system group, or partition it into as many as four system

groups. A combination of modules (including a processor module) makes up a system group.

Flexibility: The CSX7000 supports a flexible setup for system groups; mix and match individual

LAN and WAN interface modules within a group to support specific needs.

High Availability: Local Area Network (LAN) and Wide Area Network (WAN) interface modules

have their own dedicated on-board processors and memory, thus lessening the load on the main

processor. TDM and MVIP bus connections allow the transfer of data between cards to improve

throughput without using the ISA bus.

The fault-tolerant platform provides redundant, hot-swappable power supplies and cooling fans.

The platform supports bus segmentation and load sharing. For backup or parallel operations,

configure redundant system groups.

Environmental Management: The platform contains intelligent environmental sensors to monitor

power, temperature and other environmental functions.

The CSX7000 Chassis

THE CSX7000 CHASSIS

The CSX7000 is a self-contained 16 slot rack-mount unit with a passive segmentable backplane. It

can support multiple system groups using multiple processor modules. It is capable of running

completely independent applicationswithin the same chassis. An internal, multiplexed bus system

allows all processor modules within the chassis to share a single flexible disk, monitor, and

keyboard.

The CSX7000 is built with heavy industrial material and includes a cooling system which can

accommodate the full chassis. Thetwo redundant integral power suppliesprovide high availability

processing. You can hot swap each supply without affecting the CSX7000’s functions. You can

power on or off individual groups, which allows you to maintain a selected group while other

groups in the chassis remain operational.

The CSX7000 contains a slide rail assembly to allow for its mounting in a 19 inch RETMA rack or

cabinet. (Refer to chassis dimensions and rack/cabinet recommendations.) You can create a cluster of

CSX7000s by stacking multiple chassis and connecting them with a chassis-to chassis daisy chain

bus. (See following illustration.)

PROCESSOR MODULE

Cabletron offers two different processor modules for the CSX7000: the CSXPRO-8 and the

CSXPRO-32. These Pentium single-board CPUs are self-contained computers that include

processor, memory, and I/O. The amount of RAM and the speed of the processor differentiate the

available CPUs:

• CSXPRO7-8 sufficient for most remote access applications

• CSXPRO7-32 for densely-populated PRI configurations

ENVIRONMENTAL MODULE

For each cluster of connected CSX7000s, an optional Environmental Management System (EMS)

module manages the intelligent environmental sensors located throughout the cluster. These

sensors monitor system status, including CPU operation, voltages, fuses, temperature and fans.

TheEMS module can monitorandcontrol up to31 CSX7000s connected asa singlecluster.The EMS

module can also be configured as an SNMP agent for management of the environmental sensors

through a remote SNMP manager.

INTERFACE MODULES

The CSX7000 supports multiple interface modules. These interface modules combine with a

processor module to form a system group. The interface modules can include:

• Ethernet Local Area Network (LAN) Interface (single port or two port)

• ISDN Basic Rate Interface (BRI)

• ISDN Primary Rate Interface (PRI)

• digital modem (DM-8, DM-24, DM-24+, DM-30+)

• dedicated line connectivity through RS232 and V.35

• Frame Relay and X.25 support

For detailed information on these and other features of the CSX7000, refer to the User’s Guide.
