Cisco LightStream 1010

This chapter provides information on the Cisco LightStream 1010 asynchronous transfer mode (ATM) switch. The information is organized into the following sections:


Note Documentation for the LightStream 1010 ATM switch is available in two forms: on a CD-ROM called Cisco Connection Documentation, Enterprise Series and printed books. A CD and hard-copy installation documentation ship with each chassis, and a configuration note ships with each component ordered. All configuration notes are available on the CD. Additional CDs and a subscription CD update service are also available.

You can also access Cisco technical documentation on the World Wide Web URL http://www.cisco.com. For more information, see the chapter "Documentation" at the end of the catalog.


Product Overview

fig_1.gif

The LightStream 1010 is the first of a series of new switches from Cisco Systems that represents the next generation of workgroup and campus ATM switching systems. The LightStream 1010 is a 5-Gbps modular switch designed for use in either the workgroup or the campus, depending upon the nature of the interfaces employed.

The LightStream 1010 uses a five-slot, modular chassis featuring the option of dual, fault-tolerant, load-sharing power supplies. The central slot in the LightStream 1010 is dedicated to a single, field-replaceable ATM Switch Processor module (ASP) that supports both the 5-Gbps shared memory, fully nonblocking switch fabric, together with its feature card, and the high-performance RISC processor that provides the central intelligence for the device. Uniquely, the ASP module feature card can also be upgraded in the field, allowing the switch to track changing ATM specifications. The remaining slots support up to four hot-swappable carrier modules (CAMs), each of which, in turn, can support up to two hot-swappable port adapter modules (PAMs), for a maximum of eight PAMs per switch, supporting a wide variety of desktop, backbone, and wide-area ATM interfaces.

The LightStream 1010 offers the sophistication and depth of functionality required for true ATM production deployment. Advanced traffic management mechanisms allow for the support of current, bursty, best-effort traffic, while also delivering the quality of service (QOS) guarantees required for the applications of the future. Available bit rate (ABR) congestion control support allows the LightStream 1010 to slow traffic sources before congestion becomes excessive, while support for the ATM Forum PNNI protocols allows networks of LightStream 1010s to scale to hundreds of nodes while still delivering interoperable, QOS-based routing. Value-add capabilities allow for ATM access lists and load sharing across redundant links. All of this sophistication is hidden, however, by the true standards-based, plug-and-play capabilities of the LightStream 1010, while advanced management functions allow for unprecedented levels of network visibility and control.

Figure 109 shows a LightStream 1010 with an optional redundant power supply installed, and Figure 110 shows the LightStream 1010 rear panel.

Standard Features

fig_2.gif

The LightStream 1010 switch includes the following standard features:

The LightStream 1010 uses two management tools: AtmDirector and CiscoView.


AtmDirector

Using underlying ATM network management protocols such as the Interim Local Management Interface (ILMI), as well as standard and Cisco-private ATM MIBs, Cisco Systems' AtmDirector management application simplifies the installation and administration of ATM in switched internetworks.

AtmDirector is a graphical, system-level ATM management application for configuring, monitoring, and troubleshooting a network of Cisco LightStream ATM switches and ATM-attached Cisco routers and Catalyst LAN switches. The AtmDirector application automatically discovers and illustrates the topology of the ATM network, displays real-time link information, facilitates ATM network interrogation and troubleshooting by allowing selection of any virtual connection on an ATM link and tracing its entire path, and provides an intuitive interface for creating PVCs across the ATM network. AtmDirector may be integrated with popular SNMP management platforms or used as a fully functional, independent ATM network management application.

These advanced ATM management functions provide real-time status, statistics and configuration information, allowing the administrator to more easily understand and use the complex management data available for ATM networks.

ATM Director is bundled with Cisco's advanced virtual LAN management application, running on top of CiscoWorks for Solaris.


CiscoView for the LightStream 1010

The CiscoView application for Cisco's LightStream 1010 ATM switch is a graphical user interface (GUI)-based device management application that provides dynamic status, statistics, and configuration information for the LightStream 1010. This application is a subset of the CiscoView application that offers similar features for other switched internetworking products such as Catalyst LAN switches and Cisco routers.

The CiscoView application is also included within CiscoWorks, Cisco's enterprise network management application suite. It displays a physical view of any Cisco device and shows real-time LED and interface status. The CiscoView application provides comprehensive monitoring functions and simplifies basic troubleshooting tasks.

Using the CiscoView application for the LightStream 1010, users can more easily understand the complex management data and configuration parameters available for ATM switches. It organizes this information into graphical representations presented in a clear, consistent format.

The CiscoView application for the LightStream 1010 can be integrated with several of the leading network management platforms, providing management application integration. It can also be run on UNIX workstations as a fully functional, independent LightStream 1010 management application. In addition, it can be launched from the AtmDirector topology map by simply double-clicking on a LightStream 1010 icon.


Configuration Guidelines

The default configuration for the LightStream 1010 is a chassis with a single power supply and ASP module with 16 MB of DRAM, and the default software image. Carrier modules and PAMs must be ordered separately. Two software images are available for the LightStream 1010---the default IISP image, which only supports the IISP protocol for ATM routing, and the PNNI image, which supports both the IISP and PNNI Phase 1 protocols. The LightStream 1010 uses the same power cords as the Cisco 7000 router and the Catalyst 5000.

When ordering a LightStream 1010 system that has been configured by the factory, the following items must be included on the purchase order:

All other components---redundant power supply, carrier modules, port adapter modules, and Flash memory cards---are options; these may be ordered at the same time as the base chassis if you want to have them installed in the factory. They can also be ordered as spares, as with the chassis, ASP, ASP DRAM SIMMs, and ASP Flash memory cards. Configuration rules should also be followed when ordering a spare ASP module; the cost of the default software image is included in the spare ASP price.


Carrier Modules and Port Adapters

Use the following guidelines to configure the LightStream 1010 carrier modules and port adapters:

Table 245 : LightStream 1010 CAM Ordering

Number of
Port Adapter Modules
Number of Required
Carrier Modules
1 1
2 1
3 2
4 2
5 3
6 3
7 4
8 4


Note There is no switch slot dependency for CAMs---they can be plugged into any available switch slot. CAMs ordered as spares will be shipped with two PAM slot covers. CAMs installed in the factory will ship with PAM slot covers for any slots not occupied by PAMs.

  • The base chassis does not ship with any port adapter modules; these must be ordered separately. They can be ordered at the same time as the chassis if you want to have them installed in the factory. Note, however, that an appropriate number of CAMs should be ordered at the same time as the PAMs when all components are ordered with a switch chassis. There are no slot dependencies for PAMs---these can be plugged into any available PAM slot on any CAM.

  • The Flash memory PCMCIA cards are not required for the operation of the LightStream 1010 and can only be ordered as spares.

  • The LightStream 1010 can accommodate the same DRAM and Flash memory SIMMs and the same PCMCIA Flash memory cards as the Cisco 7500 series RSP module.

  • When ordering a spare software image, specify both the particular spare feature set (that is, SW-WAS2-11.2.1=) and the associated feature license (for example, FR-WAS2-11.X). The same procedure applies when ordering an upgrade---for instance, when upgrading from IISP to PNNI/IISP, specify both SW-WAS2-11.2.1= and FR-WA-S1S2=.
