SmartStack SSIM-A2-01/SSIM-A8-01 Introduction

1. Introduction

The SmartStack SSIM-A2-01 and SmartStack SSIM-A8-01 ATM 155 Uplink

Modules from Cabletron Systems provide high-speed connections to the ATM

backbone for the STS16-20RM Token-Ring Switch. Designed for high

performance and lowlatency, thesemodules provide connectivitybetween existing

legacy Token Ring networks and ATM networks.

Note: References to STS16-20RM are also applicable to STS16-20FRM.

The SSIM-Ax-01 module mounts in one of the two front-panel expansion module

slots on the switch. The SmartStack SSIM-A2-01 has a UTP-5 copper shielded

RJ-45 connector interface. The SmartStack SSIM-A8-01 is available for

multimode optical fiber with duplex SC connector.

Figure 1. SSIM-A2-01 Uplink (right) and SSIM-A8-01 Uplink (left)

The modules support Token Ring LAN Emulation (LANE) 1.0, UNI 3.0/3.1/4.0

and Integrated Local Management Interface (ILMI) 4.0.

A single ATM interface can emulate up to 63 Virtual ATM Ports (VAPs), each

implementing a separate LANE bridge (LANE proxy client). Virtual ATM ports

support nearly all of the features of standard Token Ring ports, and are configured

just like any other Token Ring port. Extra configuration options are available for

configuring the LAN emulation and ATM interface options.

The bandwidth of the ATM interface is shared among multiple VAPs.

Additionally, advanced traffic configuration facilities eliminate transmit overloads

and permit the optimization of bandwidth usage.
