SBM powered by Microsoft Lync Installation and Getting Started Guide 2010-11

C-3

Hardware Components

Upper Deck

The module includes an upper deck PCA, which provides two PCIe slots.

These slots support two user-installable telephony PCIe cards. For informa-

tion on installing these cards, please see the insert shipped with these cards.

Lower Deck

The module also includes a lower deck, which supports the compact flash

card and the 250 GB disk drive.

Internal Ports

The module receives traffic from and transmits traffic to its host switch on

two internal Ethernet ports, each of which supports 10 Gbps. When a module

is installed in the host switch, the switch automatically detects these internal

ports and names them according to the lower slot in which the module is

installed. For example, if the module is installed in slots A and C, the switch

references the ports as C1 and C2.

The SBM should typically only communicate with the LAN on a single internal

port. By default, the Windows Server 2008 R2 Ethernet interface that corre-

sponds with port 1 on the HP zl switch is disabled. You can also disable the

<slot>1 port from the switch side. However, you must never disable the

<slot>2 port.

Caution If you disable the <slot>2 port, the communications between the HP zl switch

and the SBM will fail, causing first the module to fail and then the switch to

report the SBM as a malfunctioning module.
