Cisco Enhanced Benes fabric MIB module. This MIB module is used for managing/tracking the Ehanced Benes Fabric entities and/or fabric related configuration, state and statistics information. The fabric entities relationship is shown as follows: Acronyms and terms: RP - Routing processor. DRP - Distributed Route Processor. LC - Line card. SFE - switch fabric element. SFE port - the port of SFE contains a transmitter and/or receiver to transmit and/or receive data from backplane. fabric link - Fabric link. +-+ +-+ |T1+=====================================>+R| +-+ single fabric link +-+ A fabric link contains a transmitter T and receiver R. The transmitter T is in the source SFE port of the fabric link and the receiver R is in the destination SFE port of the fabric link. OIM - Optical Interface Module. fabric bundle - Fabric bundle is a cable that contains one or more fabric links for transferring data between fabric cards. +-+ +-+ |A+==================/====================+B| +-+ 1..N fabric links +-+ A fabric bundle cable contains 1 to N fabric links. One end of the fabric bundle cable is plugged into the fabric bundle port A of fabric card in Line card rack and the other end is plugged into the fabric bundle port B on a OIM of fabric rack for the high speed data transfer between fabric bundle port A and B. ingressq - a switch fabric element which queues/segments packets into cells and sends them into fabric. fabricq - a switch fabric element which resequences and reassembles cells from fabric into packets and forwarding them to the egress interface related hardware. fabric plane - Fabric plane is a path from a set of ingressqs in a RP/DRP or LC card to a set of fabricqs in other RP/DRP or LC cards for transferring data between RP, DRP, and LC cards.
