Introduction Features Processors ® The 9E106-06 is equipped with dual advanced Intel i960 RISC microprocessors. One processor provides a platform for all management applications, such as Spanning Tree, RMON, IETF and Enterprise MIB support. This network management information is available through a variety of methods. All SNMP based information is accessible either via an in-band (front panel port), side-band (SMB-10), or out-of-band via the Environmental Module’s (EM) COM port

Introduction The FNB backplane connection is a fixed connection to FNB-1 or FNB-2. This connection allows the 9E106-06 to communicate with other SmartSwitch 9000 modules supporting various LAN technologies including: Token Ring, FDDI, Ethernet, WAN and ATM. Bridging/SecureFast™ Switching 9E106-06 operates in two modes, as a traditional bridge, or as a SecureFast Switch. In the traditional bridge mode, the 9E106-06 makes filtering/forwarding decisions based on frame destination addr
