CHAPTER Trunk Cards 4-1 4 T r unk Cards This chapter describes the hardware and functionality of IGX trunk cards. The description of each card includes: • Function • System interconnect • Facepl.
4-2 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Trunk Interface Cards T runk Interface Car ds This section describes the IGX trunks. The card groups are: • Uni versal switching module enhanced (UXM-E) • Network trunk module (NTM) Note W ith Release 9.2 and later software, an Cisco IGX 8420 or 8430 switch can support a maximum of 32 trunks.
Trunk Cards 4-3 Common Alarms, Controls, and Indicators T runk Operating Modes IGX trunk cards operate in either simple gateway or cell forwar ding mode. Simple gate way supports service interworking , which lets Frame Relay connections terminate at A TM endpoints.
4-4 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced Universal Switc hing Module Enhanced This description of the univ ersal switching module (UXM-E) cov ers the following topics: .
Trunk Cards 4-5 Universal Switching Module Enhanced Deter mining the UXM-E’ s Mode of Operation The UXM-E detects reports its mode of operation to switch software when you first acti vate either a trunk to the network or a line on the UNI or NNI. If you acti vate a trunk, the UXM-E goes into trunk mode.
4-6 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced voice connection between a CVM and CDP . Connection E is a local connection (D AXCON) between a UFM and a UXM-E UNI port on the same node. For connections C–E, the gate way function of the UXM-E packs and unpacks the FastP ackets into and out of the A TM cells.
Trunk Cards 4-7 Universal Switching Module Enhanced • The maximum throughput is 310 Mbps—two times the OC-3 (STM1) rate. This maximum applies whether the back card is a 2-port or 4-port back card. In practical application, this maximum rate means that most trunk applications with an OC-3 interface would use the 2-port back card.

Trunk Cards 4-9 Universal Switching Module Enhanced T able 4-5 UXM-E Status LEDs Maximum Number of UXM-Es Switch software limits the number of logical trunks and ports on an IGX switch. The maximum number of UNI or NNI ports in an IGX switch is 64. The maximum number of logical trunks is 32.
4-10 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced Card Mismatch The UXM-E supports two types of card mismatch notification. The notification common to all cards occurs when you connect an unsupported back card to the front card.
Trunk Cards 4-11 Universal Switching Module Enhanced The car d-based default and maximum cellb us bandwidth for each interface appears in T able 4-5. Note that FastP ackets require substantially less cellbus bandwidth than A TM cells.
4-12 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced Calculating Cellbus Bandwidth Changes T o determine ho w many UBUs are necessary , use the values for avera ge bandwidth used in the following formula: In most circumstances, the fps and cps values from aver age bandwidth used are suf ficient.
Trunk Cards 4-13 Universal Switching Module Enhanced • 8.3 and 9.3 • 9.4 and the public network Step 2 Configure trunk 8.1, 8.2, and 8.3 to use VPC 101, 102, and 103, respectively . Step 3 Add 3 VPC connections from 9.1, 9.2, and 9.3 to 9.4. At the far end, use the same VPCs.
4-14 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced T ypes of Connections on a UXM-E T r unk This section introduces the connections that a UXM-E trunk supports. The context of each description is the trunk rather than the connection endpoints.
Trunk Cards 4-15 Universal Switching Module Enhanced IMA characteristics are as follows: • All physical ports of an IMA trunk use the same line configuration.
4-16 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced Adding and Removing IMA Group Links When you configure an IMA trunk through Cisco W AN Manager or the cnftrk command, you enter the number of retained links. This represents the number of ports that must remain activ e for the IMA trunk itself to remain activ e.
Trunk Cards 4-17 Universal Switching Module Enhanced Figure 4-7 shows an e xample of IMA protocol overhead. In the e xample, DS0 1 is reserved for an IMA group with 1 to 4 physical lines and DS0 2 is reserved for an IMA group with 5 to 8 physical lines.
4-18 Cisco IGX 8400 Series Reference Universal Switching Module Enhanced Note T wo-segment v oice and data connections are not supported. Figure 4-9 shows an e xample of configuring a three-segment connection for IGX feeder node functionality .
Trunk Cards 4-19 Universal Switching Module Enhanced Activ ation and Configuration of a UXM-E in T r unk Mode When you insert a ne w UXM-E into the backplane or apply power to the IGX node, UXM-E firmware reports the card type and number of physical lines on the back card.
