Product Description Features and Components Figure 1 illustrates the front panel components.
AT-9006 Series Installation Guide Six Fiber Optic 1000 Mbps Ports (AT-9006SX/SC and AT-9006LX/SC) The AT-9006SX/SC and AT-9006LX/SC Gigabit Ethernet Switches feature six fiber optic ports with dual SC connectors. The ports operate at 1000 Mbps in full-duplex mode. (The ports can be configured as half-duplex, but since all 1000 Mbps network devices operate at full-duplex, there should be no reason to set one of the ports to half-duplex.
Product Description Table 3 describes the port LEDs. Table 3 Port LEDs LED State Description Link/Activity Solid Green This indicates a 1000 Mbps link has been established between the port and the end node. Flashing Green This indicates 1000 Mbps activity on the port. Solid Amber This indicates a 100 Mbps link has been established between the port and the end node (AT-9006T only). Flashing Amber This indicates 100 Mbps activity on the port (AT-9006T only).
AT-9006 Series Installation Guide Expansion Slots The switch features two expansion slots on the front panel. You can use the slots to install optional expansion modules which you can use to extend the distance of your network, build high-speed backbone networks, and connect additional nodes to the network, such as highspeed servers.
Product Description AT-S26 Management Software and Omega Management Interface Included with the switch is the AT-S26 management software. You use this pre-installed software to manage the switch’s operating parameters, view port and switch status information, and monitor performance statistics. Included with the management software is the Omega management interface.
AT-9006 Series Installation Guide SNMP Session You can also manage the switch using an SNMP management program, such as HP Openview. This method requires that you load the AT-9006 Series Switch MIBs onto the workstation from which you intend to manage the switch and that you compile the MIBs with a MIB complier. The MIBs for the AT-9006 Series Gigabit Ethernet Switch are available from the Allied Telesyn web site.
Product Description STP addresses this problem by ensuring that there is only one path between the end nodes. Where multiple paths exist, STP places the extra paths in a redundant or standby mode, leaving only one main active path. The redundant paths can be activated by STP if the main path goes down. So not only does STP guard against multiple links between end nodes, but it also activates backup redundant paths in case a main link fails.
AT-9006 Series Installation Guide The ratio used by the switch in handling packets in the two queues is adjustable. There are eight possible settings. The settings allow you to adjust the level of importance given to tagged packets in the high priority queue as compared to packets in the normal priority queue. The lowest setting is 1 to 1, meaning that the switch will treat packets in both the high and normal queues the same.
Product Description # With VLAN tagging, the ability to group workstations into logical work groups is more versatile. Network servers or other network resources can be shared without loss of data isolation or security. # With VLAN tagging, one port on a switch can be configured to be an uplink to another 802.1Q-compatible switch. This one port can be configured to carry traffic from all VLANs configured on the switch.
