This publication provides a description of the IPX including physical and functional descriptions as well as troubleshooting and component removal and replacement procedures.
Cisco documentation and additional literature are available in a CD-ROM package, which ships with your product. The Documentation CD-ROM, a member of the Cisco Connection Family, is updated monthly. Therefore, it might be more current than printed documentation. To order additional copies of the Documentation CD-ROM, contact your local sales representative or call customer service. The CD-ROM package is available as a single package or as an annual subscription.

The Cisco WAN Switching products have new names. A switch in the BPX family is now part of the Cisco BPX® 8600 Series wide area switch family. The AXIS shelf is now called the Cisco MGX 8220 edge concentrator. Any switch in the IGX switch family (IGX 8, IGX 16 and IGX 32 wide-area switches) is now called the Cisco IGX 8400 series-wide area switch. The IGX 8 switch is now called the Cisco IGX 8410 wide-area switch. The IGX 16 switch is now called the Cisco IGX 8420 wide-area switch, and the IGX 32 switch is now called the Cisco IGX 8430 wide-area switch.
This publication is organized as follows:
|
This chapter provides a general description that includes a functional overview, power requirements, mechanical configuration, a circuit card and backplane description, and a description of the Alarm Relay Card (ARC) and associated backcard (ARI) | |

|
This chapter provides a brief summary of IPX initial configuration and provisioning management. | |
|
This chapter describes periodic maintenance, troubleshooting, and replacement of major IPX components. | |
|
This chapter describes component removal and replacement, ranging from a single card to a complete node. | |
|
This chapter introduces the functions of the Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) agent that is embedded in each IPX node. To benefit from this chapter, readers should have a general knowledge of SNMP, IP protocols, and MIBs | |
|
This appendix provides details on the IPX system specifications. | |
|
This appendix provides details on the IPX peripherals specifications | |
|
This appendix provides details on the IPX cabling required to connect customer devices and lines to the IPX node. | |
|
This appendix describes the StrataCom AT3-6ME Interface Adapter, sometimes referred to as the T3-T2 Interface Adapter, used with the BPX or IPX to provide a 6 Mbps ATM network interface to T2 transmission facilities. |
