The 8500-MSM24, MSM-48c and 8900-MSM128 modules have a slot for one of the following option
cards:
● S-G8Xc—Adds eight 1-gigabit SFP data ports to the MSM. These data ports operate the same as the
ports on the G24Xc I/O module. (See “G24Xc I/O Module” on page 40 for more information.)
● S-10G1Xc—Adds one 10-gigabit XFP data port to the MSM. This data port operates the same as the
ports on the 10G4Xc I/O module. (See “10G4Xc I/O Module” on page 38 for more information.)
Different MSM models have different memory and processing capacity. For details of feature support in
the MSMs, see the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide.
NOTE
See the ExtremeXOS Concepts Guide and the ExtremeXOS Command Reference Guide for more information about
numbering conventions for the modules and ports, as well as configuration and display information.
MSM LEDs
Table 8 describes the LED activity on the BlackDiamond 8000 series MSMs.
NOTE
The LEDs on the management Ethernet port are not labeled. On the MSM-G8X and MSM-48 modules, the LED on
the right is the link LED, and the one on the left is the activity LED. On other MSMs, the left LED indicates link
status, and the right LED indicates link activity by blinking green.
NOTE
The data port LEDs on the MSM-G8X operate the same as the port status LEDs on the G24X I/O module.
