5.2.4 Other ARTM Interfaces
In addition to the AMC-type interface to the ARTM, additional interfaces are routed
to the ARTM to provide for rear access to the Netra CP3260 I/O.
5.2.4.1 Serial Ports
The console port from the PPC is routed to the ARTM for rear access. When a serial
device is connected into the ARTM’s serial port, the console data is output to that
port. When the ARTM serial port is not used, console data is routed to the H8 for
netconsole or to the front panel serial port provided a serial device is connected into
the port.
5.2.4.2 Ethernet Management Port
A single 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port is routed from the Intel 82671 Dual
Gigabit Ethernet controller to rear panel RJ-45 connectors. A second port goes to the
front panel RJ-45 management port.
5.2.5 Front Panel I/O
The front panel I/O consists of the following:
■ Ethernet Management port
■ Serial port
■ Dual USB ports
5.2.5.1 Ethernet Management Port
A single 10/100/1000BASE-T Ethernet port is routed from the Intel 82671 Dual
Gigabit Ethernet controller to front panel RJ-45 connector. A second management
port goes to the ARTM.
5.2.5.2 Serial Port
The serial console port from the PPC is routed to the front panel and terminated in
an RJ-45 connector.
