CHAPTER 2
CONTROLS AND INDICATORS
This chapter identifies and describes the components and operational
indicators of the ESXMIM.
2.1 PARTS OF THE ESXMIM
In some instances, the ESXMIM and ESXMIM-F2 provide different front
panel connectivity options, LED indicators, or other labeling. In these
instances, the configuration of the ESXMIM will be discussed first.

configured with an optional EPIM module. For a list of EPIM modules
which may be used in the ESXMIM, refer to Appendix B,
BRIM/EPIM
Information
.
Reset Button
The recessed reset button re-initializes the ESXMIM processor. The
activation of this switch will not initialize Non-Volatile Random Access
Memory (NVRAM) where the ESXMIM stores configuration and
management parameters. The Reset button may be pressed with the point
of a pencil or pen. Once pushed in, the ESXMIM will re-initialize itself.
LANVIEW LEDs
The ESXMIM incorporates the LANVIEW status monitoring and
diagnostic system. LANVIEW LEDs can help diagnose many problems,
such as a fault in network cabling. LANVIEW LEDs are identified in
Section 2.1.3, LANVIEW LEDs.
RJ45 Ports
The ESXMIM module provides five front panel RJ45 ports for connection
to 10BASE-T links. The RJ45 ports of the ESXMIM use the 10BASE-T
standard pinouts and signaling.
ST Ports
The ESXMIM-F2 provides five pairs of front panel ST ports for
connection to five 10BASE-F links. The ST ports of the ESXMIM-F2 are
10BASE-F and FOIRL compliant.
Serial Ports
The ESXMIM faceplate provides two serial communications ports for the
connection of out-of-band management devices.

The components listed in the following entries are all hidden inside the
MMAC chassis when the ESXMIM has been installed. These components
may be located by removing the ESXMIM from the chassis and holding
the module in the orientation shown in Figure 2-3 and Figure 2-4.

Parts of the ESXMIM
ESXMIM/ESXMIM-F2 Installation Guide 2-5
SDRAM SIMM Slot
The ESXMIM motherboard provides the option of upgrading memory
capacity by using Single In-line Memory Modules (SIMMs).
The ESXMIM comes with 4 Megabytes (MB) of Shared Dynamic
RandomAccess Memory (SDRAM). SDRAM holds packets coming onto
the module temporarily while forwarding, filtering, and error checking
decisions are made.
LDRAM SIMM Slot
The ESXMIM comes with 4 MB of Local Dynamic Random Access
Memory (LDRAM). LDRAM is the “Main” memory from which the
switching functionality of the ESXMIM operates.
FLASH Memory SIMM Slot
The ESXMIM incorporates 2 MB of FLASH Electrically Erasable
Programmable Read Only Memory (FLASH EEPROM). FLASH
memory holds the operating instruction code of the ESXMIM. When the
module is activated, the instruction code (firmware) held in FLASH
memory is forwarded to Main memory, decompressed, and used to startup
the ESXMIM.
The use of FLASH memory, in conjunction with the runtime download
capabilities of the ESXMIM, allows for the downloading of firmware to
the module without requiring that the module be shut down. The firmware
download may be performed at any time during the operation of the
module, and the new firmware image will be utilized at the next reset of
the module.
Dip Switch Bank
The ESXMIM provides a bank of eight dual-position, or “dip” switches.
Several of these switches are used for testing purposes during the
manufacturing process. The dip switches can also be used to clear the
NVRAM of the ESXMIM which contains configuration and local
management settings, or to force the ESXMIM to request a new firmware
image from a properly configured BOOTP server.

EPIM Connector
The EPIM connector is a set of built-in pins that connect the ESXMIM to
an optional EPIM module. The proper insertion of the EPIM will
automatically connect these pins to the connector located on the EPIM.
Onboard Safety Fuse
The onboard safety fuse protects the ESXMIM from potentially
damaging power spikes or surges. Under normal operation, the safety fuse
will not require customer concern.
Flexible Network Bus Connection
This multipin connector allows the ESXMIM to connect to Ethernet
Channel A of the MMAC Flexible Network Bus backplane.
2.1.3 LANVIEW LEDs
The LANVIEW LEDs on the ESXMIM faceplate provide diagnostic and
status monitoring information. The LEDs are identified by labels which
border the LED in question.
