Ethernet to Networks
Depending on your configuration, Gigabit Ethernet connectivity is provided by the Ethernet interfaces
in an IP or Telco CLIM or the Ethernet ports on a Gigabit Ethernet 4-port ServerNet Adapter (G4SA):
• “IP CLIM Ethernet Interfaces” (page 103)
• “Telco CLIM Ethernet Interfaces” (page 104)
• “Gigabit Ethernet 4-Port ServerNet Adapter (G4SA) Ethernet Ports” (page 104)
The IP or Telco CLIM installed in a NonStop NS16000 series system or a G4SA installed in an
IOAM enclosure provide Gigabit connectivity between NonStop NS16000 series systems and
Ethernet LANs. The Ethernet port is an end node on the ServerNet and uses either fiber-optic or
copper cable for connectivity to user application LANs, as well as for the dedicated service LAN.
IP CLIM Ethernet Interfaces
The IP CLIM has two types of Ethernet configurations: IP CLIM option 1 and IP CLIM option 2:
• IP CLIM option 1 provides five Ethernet copper ports.
• IP CLIM option 2 provides three Ethernet copper ports and two Ethernet optical ports.
For illustrations showing the Ethernet interfaces and ServerNet fabric connections on DL385 G2
or G5 and DL380 G6 IP CLIMs with the IP CLIM option 1 and option 2 configurations, see “IP
CLuster I/O Module (CLIM)” (page 116).
All CLIMs use the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem. For more information about the CIP
subsystem, refer to the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
