NonStop NS2400 Series Planning Guide

Telco CLuster I/O Module (CLIM) (Optional)
The Telco CLIM is a rack-mounted server that is part of some NonStop NS2400 series system
configurations. For RVU requirements for DL380 G6 and DL380p Gen8 Telco CLIMs, see Table 1
(page 22). A NonStop NS2400 series system can have 0, 1, or 2 Telco CLIMs. For information
about coexistence limits for IP and Telco CLIMs, see IP and Telco CLIM Coexistence Limits (page 99).
The Telco CLIM connects to the VIO enclosure and utilizes the Message Transfer Part Level 3 User
Adaptation layer (M3UA) protocol and functions as a ServerNet Ethernet adapter with one of these
Telco CLIM configurations:
• “DL380 G6 Telco CLIM — Five Ethernet Copper Ports” (page 29)
• “DL380p Gen8 Telco CLIM — Option 1 Five Ethernet Copper Ports” (page 30)
• “DL380p Gen8 Telco CLIM — Option 2 Three Ethernet Copper and Two Ethernet Optical
Ports” (page 30)
NOTE: All CLIMs use the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) subsystem. For more information about the
CIP subsystem, see the Cluster I/O Protocols (CIP) Configuration and Management Manual.
This illustration shows the Ethernet interfaces and ServerNet fabric connections on a DL380 G6
and DL380p Gen8 Telco CLIM. For illustrations of the front view of this CLIM, see “CLuster I/O
Modules (CLIMs)” (page 22).
