Chapter 1: Introduction1-69A656-04 and 9A600 Configuration Guide1.4 INTERFACE (PORT) NUMBERINGThe 9A656-04 uses a geographic interface numbering scheme that allows for easy identifica-tion of each front panel and backplane interface of each 9A656-04 installed in the Smart-Switch 9500 chassis. Interface numbers are generated as follows:Slot ##, ANIM ##, Interface ##Table 1-1 provides an example of how the interface numbering scheme works. In thisexample, there is a SmartSwitch 9500 chassis with five 9A656-04 modules installed. Thesemodules are installed in slots 1, 3, 7, 11 and 14. Each of these modules are equipped with 4ANIM 21/3s. This provides each 9A656-04 with 12 front panel interfaces. Refer to Table 1-1for a breakdown of the interface numbering scheme.CTM interfaces may be recognized by the following CTM ANIM #:• If the ANIM number of the interface numbering scheme is 08 through 15.For example, if the interface number is 11402. This means that the 9A656-04 is installedin slot 1. The CTM ANIM is number 14, and it is port 2 of that CTM ANIM that has theconnection.Table 1-1 Interface (Port) Numbering ExampleANIM # Interface # Slot 1 Slot 3 Slot 7 Slot 11 Slot 141 1 10101 30101 70101 110101 1401011 2 10102 30102 70102 110102 1401021 3 10103 30103 70103 110103 1401032 1 10201 30201 70201 110201 1402012 2 10202 30202 70202 110202 1402022 3 10203 30203 70203 110203 1402033 1 10301 30301 70301 110301 1403013 2 10302 30302 70302 110302 1403023 3 10303 30303 70303 110303 1403034 1 10401 30401 70401 110401 1404014 2 10402 30402 70402 110402 1404024 3 10403 30403 70403 110403 140403NOTE The CTM ANIMs have two ports.CTM interface numbering does not apply to the 9A600.
