OmniSwitch 9000
Max power per blade
• OS9000 lanpower is load-shared among all of the GNI-P24 NIs in the chassis, each NI
having 210W max per blade for lanpower. Up to 4 power supplies (525W x 4) of 2100W max in the
power shelf is available for the entire chassis (please note that up to 2400watts of PoE power will be
supported in a future release). Depending on how many GNI-P24s in the chassis and how much power
all the NIs required, power supply redundancy can be defined as having at least one power supply
more than the power requirement. Note that a DB25 female-male power cable is needed in order to
connect between the chassis and the power supply. Each power cable must be plugged in to the
corresponding connector ID between both the power shelf and switch chassis because the i2c reading
retrieves power supply information accordingly.
• OS9600 can also support either a 510W or 360W (normally used with the OS6850) power
supply and it is load-shared among all of the GNI-P24 NIs in the chassis. Each NI can only have 210W
max power blade for lanpower. For OS9600 chassis, there is no redundancy support using “OS6850”
power supply because only one power supply can be inserted into the chassis. Note that a DB25 male-
male power cable is needed in order to connect between the chassis and the power supply.
Lanpower Priority
• For port-priority, both the OS9000 is set to “low” by default in all the ports. Therefore the
lowered-numbered ports always have a higher-precedence of retaining lanpower when there is
insufficient power for all the ports. In order for higher-numbered ports to have a higher priority, use
the CLI command to set the port priority higher “lanpower <slot/port> priority <low/high/critical>”.
• For slot-priority, OS9000 is set to low by default in all the slots.
The lower-numbered slot has a higher precedence of retaining lanpower when there is insufficient
power for all the slots. As a result, slot-priority will override port-priority setting no matter what.
In order for higher-numbered slot to have a higher priority, use the CLI command to set the slot
priority higher “lanpower <slot> priority <low/high/critical>”.

Capability Maturity Model (CMM) Alcatel.Lucent's Software Engineering Institute (SEI) Capability Maturity Model (CMM) rating for
software processes meets the Level-2 (CMM-level-2) requirements.
The Ethernet software The Ethernet software is responsible for a variety of functions that support the Ethernet, Gigabit
Ethernet and 10Gigabit Ethernet ports on OmniSwitch 9000 Series switches. These functions include
diagnostics, software loading, initialization, and configuration of line parameters, gathering statistics,
and responding to administrative requests from SNMP or CLI.
Operating Systems
Wind River’s VxWorks multi-tasking O/S version 5.4 with a Kernel version 2.5. Alcatel.Lucent O/S – AOS (Alcatel.Lucent’s Operating Systems).
The AOS is uploaded onto the Flash memory. The advantage of this switch running the AOS is that it is managed using the same interface as with the rest of the
Alcatel.Lucent AOS switching & routing platforms. The AOS on the OS9000 platforms provides support for the majority of the features of the larger modular
platforms including layer-3 unicast routing using RIPv1&v2, VRRP, or OSPFv2. Group mobility and authenticated VLANs as well as QoS and ACL
functionality are supported making the OS9000 a highly functional solution for the core of the network.
Software
Each OmniSwitch 9000 Chassis is shipped with base software. All advanced features are also included in the base software.
