Chapter

(JOThe ComputcNode4U cPSB is a carrier-grade CompactPCI solution developed fordie communications and embedded controls marketplace. Likeallof GNP's products,the ComputeNode4U cPSB has been designed to be compliant with TelcordiaGR-1089-CORE Level 3 and Telcordia GR-63-CORE Level 3, for installation in the

Central Office. The ComputeNode4U cPSB can be customized with a wide range ofoptions to meet your specific needs, so the features and capabilities of units van'.

The ComputeNode4U cPSB is availablewith either AC or DC input voltages, with aload-sharing 2+1 redundant power supply configuration. It features GNP's uniquecompact horizontal design, with a full eight-slotcustom cPSB (cPCI Packet SwitchedBackplane), for use with both front and rear transition cards. Of the eight slots, oneis used for dual redundant 3U cPSB Ethernet switches and one is reserved as a systemslot, leaving six cPSB I/O slots for customizing the chassis. A hot-swappable SCSIhard drive provides boot and data storage capability within the chassis, withoutrequiring the use of a card slot.The ComputcNode4U cPSBis designed with a systemalarm card that provides monitoring, control status, and alarming features.

System Alarm Card

There are two typesof alarmcard available for the ComputcNodc4U cPSB— GNP'sstandard alarm card and the AlertlNode.

The standard alarm card communicates with the system CPU through an RS-232 serialport, and monitors die status of die fans, power supply input & output voltages,temperature, watchdog status, and two dry contact outputs. Status is indicated by afaceplate tri-color LED, whose current state may be queried remotely. For moreinformation, please see Appendix C.

The Smart Node Alarm Card, or AlerdNodc, provides remote connectivity dirougheither a serial console or Ethernet. It monitors the status of the fans, power supplyinput & output voltages, temperature,and three dry contacts. The power supplies, dry-contacts, and four faceplate LEDs may be controlled remotely. The AlertlNode alsomonitors and controls PICMG 2.9-compliant CompactPCI devices. For moreinformation, please see Appendix D.

Because neither alarm card requires the use of a cPCI slot, all eight cPCI slots remainavailable for processors, cPSB Ethernet switches, and I/O. Both alarm cards arcdesigned to be FRUs (Field-Replaceable Units).

• If there is anyother equipmentconnected to the earthed ground of the same DCsupply circuit, this equipment must all be located in the same immediate area(such as in adjacent racks) as the ComputcNode4U cPSB.

• The groundingpoint of the DC systemmust also be located in the sameimmediatearea.

• The DC supply source mustbe located within the same premises as theequipmentit supplies.

• In the DC supply circuit, there must be no switches or disconnecting devicesbetween the DC supply source and the circuit earthed ground.

Additional Requirements

ESD

To reduce die risk of damage to equipment, die ComputeNode4U cPSB should bekept in an ESD protected environment. The unit should be properly grounded at alltimes; it shouldbe plugged in andits grounding lugshouldbe connected to die supplycircuit ground. When performing routine maintenance on die unit, a wrist strapshould be used and plugged into one of die ESD jacks, located on the rear panel ofthe chassis and on the right mounting ear on the front of die unit. Refer to Chapter3 for diagrams showing the locations of the groundinglugand ESD jacks.

cPCI Card Installation

Card Alignment

aCaution: cPCI backplane connector pins are fragile and are easily bent.Proper alignment of cPCI cards is crucial in order to avoid bendingbackplane pins when inserting cards.

All GNP backplanes are designed with A/B shroud connectors. These aid in dieproper alignment of cPCI cards. Many (but not all) cPCI cards have alignmentfeatures on their connectors that aredesigned to fit into the A/B shrouds. This helpsto maintain propercard alignment during insertion, helping to preventdamage to diebackplane pins.

Note: Bent backplane pins are not covered under warranty.

FIGURE 4-4 Backplane Connectors (Front)

Before inserting a cPCI card into the ComputcNode4U cPSB, examine the card'sconnectors and note whether the connectors have alignment features. Because dieplacement of alignment features (ifany) varies among manufacturers, a few examplesof card connectors are shown in the following figures.

If the connectorshave multiple alignment features, be sure to ahgndiem carefully widithe A/B shrouds on the backplane connectors when inserting the card.

If no alignment features are present, or if die card has only one alignment feature,extreme care is needed in aligning the card connectors with the backplane connectors.

Always hold a cPCI card level and keep the card's faceplate parallel with the front ofthe chassis when insertingand removing die card.

Card Latches

Closed:

There are several types of card latches commonly used. They all fit to the extrusionsat the edges of the cardslots in the same way, and eachhas a captive screwtoward theoutsideedgeof the latch, to hold the card firmly in place in the chassis. Somelatchesarc designed with an additional locking mechanism, with various types of lockreleases. Some of the more common types arc shown below.

The following scries of diagrams showcard latches as the card is beingremoved fromthe chassis. The first of the pairof images shows die closed latch,with the card in theunit. The second shows die open latch, when thecard is unseated and is ready to beremoved from die slot.

Before removing a card, always ensure that the screw has been loosened and iscompletely free from the chassis.

When installing or removing a card, the latches must always be in die open position.

Card Installation

A

For proper insertion of cards into the ComputcNode4U cPSB, the following guide isrecommended:

1. Inspect die card. If it is new, it may come with protective plastic covers on dielatches' captivescrews. These will need to be removed before the card can beinstalled.

2. Ensure that the card's latches arc open. The latches may have a lockingmechanism that will need to be released in order to open die latches. Forinformation on common latch lockingmechanisms,refer to "Card Latches" onpage 4-6.

3. Holding the card by its latches, align the card in the ComputeNode4U cPSB'scard guides. For information on proper card alignment, please see "CardAlignment" on page 4-5. It is a good idea to double-check at this point that thelatches are open.

Caution: Inserting a cPCI card without verifying its correct alignmentwith the backplane connectors will result in permanent damage to thebackplane pins.

4. Slide the card gendy straight into the slot, maintainingproper card alignment.Keep the card level and its faceplate parallel with the front of die chassis. Donot apply too much pressure, particularly if you feel resistance. You should feeldie pin connectors on the rear of the card meet the backplane.

5. Continue to slide die card into the slot until the latches touch the extrusions oneidier side of die slot.

6. Press in on the latches to guide the card the rest of the way into the slot andlock it into place.

7. After insertion, tighten the captivescrewson the latches.

VIO Select (+3.3/+5 V signalling voltage)VIO (+5V or +3.3V) is indicated by screws present in two of the four holes in theVIO select. The upper two holes correspond to +3.3V, and die lower two holesindicate +5V. Both are marked accordingly.

The default setting is +5V.

Note: The PI connector is keyed to correspond to the signalling voltage of thebackplane so that cards intended for use with a differentvoltage cannot be installed.The connectors must be rc-keyed if die VIO select is changed. For diis reason, theVIO select is not intended to be user-configurable.

Please consult die user's manuals of the cards intended for use in the

Overview

AlertlNode

Chassis

ManagementController

GNP's AlertlNode (Smart Node Alarm Card) serves as die alarm aggregation point,or Chassis Management Controller (ChMC), for die GNP ComputeNodeXU familyof products. Accessible through the rear of the chassis, it incorporates an IPMI-compliant Baseboard Management Controller (BMC) to monitor PICMG 2.9compliant CompactPCI devices and the power and cooling subsystems. TheAlertlNode provides remote connectivity through either a serial console or Ethernetsupporting Telnet. The following local alarm indications areprovided: critical/major/minor LED indicators and dry relay contact closures.

If a CompactPCI board with BMC functionality is present in the system to act as aChMC, it can query die AlertlNode for die status of the power and coolingsystems.

The AlertlNode is hot-swappable and does not occupy a CompactPCI slot, front orrear. Because it is a passive out-of-band management entity, it will not affect systemoperation if it fails, allowingit to be safely replaced in a live system.

User Commands and Interface for the AlertINode

A single, unified command lineinterface (CLI) appears on both the serial consoleandtelnet interfaces. The available commands and syntaxare described below.

Serial Console Login

There are two userprofiles presenton the serial consolelogin: User and Debug. Theonly difference between the two profiles is that the Debug profile has additionalcommandsusefulfor accessing the rawGPIO ports, registers, and memoryregionofthe Zircon micro-controller. These commands are noted in the following sections.

The handling of different userprofiles is fairly basic, so insteadof enteringa separateusername and passwordduringthe loginprocedure, the AlertlNode onlylooks for thepassword for a profile at the "Login:" prompt. The default passwords for theseprofiles are the profile names themselves.

To log in as User, type "User" at the "Login:" prompt To log in as Debug, type"Debug" at the "Login:" prompt. These passwords may be changed from the defaultby the "passwd" command.

Telnet Login

Currendy, only one profile is available on a telnet session. The user profile name is"Debug" and the default passwordis "Debug". Currendy, the telnet login cannot bechanged from the defaultpassword.

Main Menu Commands and Syntax

The following commands are typed direcdyat the prompt; they do not use "get" or"set". All commands are followed by <ENTER> or <RETURN>.

TABLE D-l Main Menu Commands

Command Description

passwd Changethe password of the currentlogin profile. To changethe password, input is in the form:passwd [current password]

ipmi Enter the rawdata for an internalIPMI request.This command is meant to emulatethe boardreceiving an IPMI requeston its IPMBbus. Input is in the form:

ipmi <IPMI command data>A typical IPMI command anddataentrywould be of the form:

Main> ipmi <responder slave addr> <net fun | responder LUN> \

<checksum 1> <requester slave addr> <net fun | requester LUN> \

<cmd> <0 or more data bytes> <checksum 2>

...whereeach <...> entry is a single-byte hex value, whichshould prefixedby"Ox"so that it willparseproperly. The checksums arecalculated byinitializing the checksum value to 0, thenadding eachcommand byteto it.Aftereach addition, the checksum is MOD divided by256(0x100) to ensurethat the checksum remains a single-byte value. After allcommandbytesarcaddedin thisway, the currentsumshouldbe negated, and the resulting value is thechecksum. The firstchecksum is the checksum for the responder slaveaddress and the netfuncrion/rcspondcr LUNbytes. The secondchecksum is the checksum for the requesterslave address all the way to anydatabytesincluded in the command.

ipmb Command format:

ipmb <addxess> <app | ch | se | st | tr> <command> [<data bytes>...]Enter the rawdata for an IPMI request. The first argument is the target's IPMI slaveaddress.

The secondargumentis the networkfunctionof IPMI command, i.e.an application (app),chassis (ch), sensor/event (se), storage (st), or transport (tr) request. The third argumentis the command byte.The remainingarguments are optional, depending upon thearguments of the specific IPMI command given.

Reading Threshold & Action Settings

Voltage and temperature monitoring have tiiree levels of alarm threshold (minor,major, and critical) andresponse actions associated with those thresholds. The powerfeeds, power supplies, and fans are monitored for health; they are all either good or ina failed state. For diesc parameters, there isa response action for the failure state only.The possible response actions are to set die dry contacts on/off and to change thestatus of the faceplate LEDs.

TABLE D-9 Get Alarm Thresholds and Response ActionsParameter Command Description

Setting Threshold & Action Settings

Voltage and temperature monitoring havethree levels of alarmdircshold that maybeset (minor, major, and cridcal) and response acdons associated with those thresholds.The power feeds, powersupplies, and fans aremonitored for health; theyarealleithergood or in a failed state. For theseparameters, diere is a responseacdon for die failurestate only. The possible response actions that may be selected are to set the drycontacts on/off and to change the status of the faceplate LEDs. Refer to Table D-llfor a list of all response acdon settings.

Note: Multipleresponse actionsmaybe set for a given alarm state, but onlyone actionmay be set per command. For example, if you wanted to set die power LED to blinkslowly, die major alarm LED to be on, and dry contact #3 to trigger if power feed Afailed, you would use the commands:

set feeda failure action pow_slow

set feeda failure action maj_on

set feeda failure action dry3_on

ComputeNode4U cPSB

Overview

GNP's 3U cPSB 8+2G Ethernet Switch is a 3U, single-slot CompactPCI card thatprovides eight 10/100 Mbps Fast Ethernet ports and two 10/100/1000 Ethernetports in a fully non-blockingswitching configuration designed for use in GNP's cPSBsystems. The switch provides a management interface to monitor the status andcontrol the functions of each port, and has the ability to configure advancedcapabilities such as port mirroring.

A pair of hot-swappable 3U cPSB 8+2G Ethernet Switches provide redundantswitching fabrics while occupying only one 6U CompactPCI slot. Three ports areavailable through the front and rear faceplates, with die backplane routed such diatdie odier seven ports on each switch provide a 10/100Basc-Tx connection to each ofdie other cPCI slots in the system.

The software management interfaceallows the user to retrieve individualstatisticsforeach port, and to configure the following attributes: auto-negotiation, port speed,switch half/full duplex, and flow control.

Link Activity

The "link" command is used to check the link status (on/off) of a given port.

TABLE F-3 Link Information ("Get" only)


get <port#> link Displays whether the linkof the indicated port is on or off.

Receive/Transmit

The "enable" command is used to configure die receive/transmit capabilities of aparticular port. Each port can be configured to be on, off, receive only (RX), ortransmit only (TX).

TABLE F-4 Receive/Transmit Options ("Get" or "Set")

Command Syntax Options Description

get <port#> enable — Displays the current receive/transmit setting of the indicated port.

set <port#> enable <option> on Enables both receive and transmit capabilities of the selected port.

off Disables both receiveand transmit capabilities of the selected port.

rx Sets the selected port to receive only.

tx Sets the selected port to transmit only.

Auto-Negotiation

The "auto" command is used to enable or disable auto-negotiation for each port.When auto-negotiation is enabled, a port will compare its data rate and duplexmodewith diose of its link partner, and choose the highest level of operation for the linkbetween the two.

TABLE F-5 Auto-Negotiation Options ("Get" or "Set")


get <port#> auto — Displays the current auto-negotiation setting of the indicatedport.

set <port#> auto <option> on Enables auto-negotiation for the selected port.

off Disables auto-negotiation for the selected port.

Port Data Rate

The "rate" command is used to configure the data transfer rate for each port. Ports1-8can be configured for either 10Mbps or 100Mbps. Ports 9-10 can be configuredfor 10Mbps, 100Mbps,or 1000Mbps.

Note: Setting the port data rate will disable auto-negotiation.

TABLE F-6 Data Rate Settings ("Get" or "Set")


get <port#> rate — Displays the current data rate setting of the indicated port.

set <port#> rate <option> 10 Sets the data rate for the selected port to 10Mbps.

100 Sets the data rate for the selected port to 100Mbps.

1000 Sets the data rate for the selected port to 1000Mbps. (Ports 9 & 10 only)

Duplex Mode

The"duplex" command isused toconfigure duplex mode (half or full) for each port.

Note: Setting die duplex mode will disable auto-negotiation.

TABLE F-7 Duplex Mode ("Get" or "Set")Command Syntax Options Description

get <port#> duplex— Displays the current duplexmode of the indicated port.

set <port#> duplex <option> half Sets the duplexmode of the selected port to half duplex.full Sets the duplex mode of the selected port to full duplex.

Flow Control

The "flow" command is used to enable or disable flow control for eachport.

Note: The flow control optionisonly available when a port is in full duplex mode.

TABLE F-8 Flow Control Options ("Get" or "Set")Command Syntax Options Description

get <port#> flow— Displays the current flow control setting of the indicatedport.

set <port#> flow <option> on Enables flow control for the selectedport.off Disables flowcontrol for the selected port.

Autocast

The "cast" command is used to enable or disable autocast for each port. Autocast isa feature that automatically gathers counter statistics from the Simple NetworkManagement Protocol management information base (SNMP MIB) into "frames"and sends them to designated "capture ports" on die switch. These frames can beviewed by connecting to the capture port(s) and used to monitor die performance ofdie switch and associated network.

The MIB Autocast frame rate can be set from 0x00 to OxFF, where the values are in0.1 second increments.This translates to a possible frame rate from 0 to 25.5 seconds(0.1 seconds x 255 (OxFF Hex) = 25.5 seconds).

TABLE F-9 Autocast Settings ("Get" or "Set")


get <port#> cast— Displays the currentautocast setting of the indicatedport.

set <port#> cast <option> off Disables autocast for the selected port.

on Enables autocast for the selected port.

on rate <fr> Enables autocast for the selected port and sets the MIB autocast framerate to <fr>, where <fr> is a hexadecimal value from 00 to FF,indicatingrate in 0.1 second increments.

Port Mirroring

The "mirror" command is used to configure port mirroring. Port mirroring allowsany port's incoming (ingress) or outgoing (egress) traffic to be mirrored to adesignated "mirror capture port". Only one port may be designated as the mirrorcapture port. Multiple ports may be mirrored to the capture port, though this maycause congestion at the capture port.

TABLE F-10 Port Mirroring Options ("Get" or "Set")

Command Syntax . Opdons Description

get mirror — Displays mirroringinformation for all 10 ports.

get <port#> mirror — Displays mirroring information for the indicated port.

set <port#> mirror <option> cap Sets the selectedport to be the designated mirror capture port.

aU Sets the selectedport to have all traffic (ingressand egress)mirrored.

ingress Sets the selectedport to have ingress mirrored.

egress Sets the selected port to have egress mirrored.

off Sets mirroring for the selected port to off.

set mirror reset — Resetsmirroringoptions on all ports.

The ingress and egress mirrorfiltering rules can be configured to designate the typeof filtering that will be applied to ingress traffic (packets received at the port) andegress traffic (packets transmitted from the port).

TABLE F-11 Ingress/Egress Filtering Options ("Set" only)


set mirror ingress <option>or

set mirror egress <option>

dest Mirror all frameswith a specifiedMAC address (set using the"mac" option, below)as the destination address.

source Mirror all frames with a specified MAC address (set using the"mac" option, below) as the source address.

aU Mirrorall of the port's received (ingress) or transmitted(egress)frames.

mac <MAC address> Enter a MAC address to be used by the "dest" or "source"options,above. The formatof a MAC address is 12 characters:

XXXXXXXXXXXX

div <hex value> Set adivider, "n", such that every n* frame is sampled, and applyfiltering, "n" is input as a hexadecimal value from 000 to 3FF.
