Switch fabric module overview
The switch fabric modules (SFMs) forward trac between ports and the interface modules.
By default, ve SFMs are installed in an ExtremeRouting SLX 9850 device chassis. At least one SFM is required for system operation. A
failure of any single SFM does not cause the system to completely fail.
If an SFM fails, the SFM LED on the management module and fan module displays amber, showing which SFM has failed, and a syslog
message is created. System trac is automatically is re-balanced to other SFMs.
The following gure shows a SFM and the LEDs on the SFM. Since the SFM is behind the fan, these LEDs cannot be seen unless the
fan is removed.
NOTE
To check the status of the SFM without removing the fan, SFM status LEDs are provided on the fan and management
modules. For information about the SFM LEDs on the fan module, refer to Interpreting switch fabric module LEDs on page 84.
For information about the SFM LEDs on the management module, refer to Interpreting management module LEDs on page
75.
