NET MGMT
LED
The Network Management (NET MGMT) port on the AT-SBx31CFC
Central Fabric Controller card has one Status LED. The states of the LED
are described in Table 15.
Console (RS-232)
Port
The Console Port is used to conduct local management sessions with the
switch. Local management sessions are established with a terminal or PC
with a terminal emulation program, and the management cable that comes
with the card.
Local management is referred to as out-of-band management because it
is not conducted over a network. Consequently, the AT-SBx31CFC
Central Fabric Controller card does not need an Internet Protocol (IP)
address for this type of management.
Your initial management session with the switch must be a local
management session. For instructions on how to start a local
management session, refer to “Using Local Management to Verify the
Chassis” on page 192 or the Software Reference for SwitchBlade x3100
Series Switches.
SD Card Slot The secure digital (SD) memory slot is used for the following management
functions:
Store backup copies of the master configuration and database files
on the AT-SBx31CFC Central Fabric Controller card to an SD card
so that you can restore the current configuration or a previous
configuration, if needed.
Transfer master configuration files between control cards in
different chassis that are to have similar configurations.
Transfer application load files between control cards.
Store streaming log files.
An SD card is optional. The AT-SBx31CFC Central Fabric Controller card
can operate without a memory card.
