Chapter 2
Hardware Installation and Functions
This chapter describes how to set up and install the 9161 and the interface modules as well as the
hardware features and functions of the 9161.
Before setting up the 9161, make sure the serial cable (required to connect the chassis to a VT100
type terminal or PC) and the Ethernet and fiber cables needed for your system are available. If the
9161 uses AC power, plan to mount it within 10 ft. (3 m) of the AC power source.
Install the 9161
The 9161 is tested and inspected before shipment from the factory. If there is obvious damage to the
shipping container, contact the carrier immediately.
Caution: Follow electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety precautions when handling Canoga
Perkins products, as with all electronic devices with static sensitive components.
1. Unpack the 9161. Keep the shipping container until the unit is installed and fully operational. In
the unlikely event that the unit is defective, contact Canoga Perkins Customer Service for a return
authorization number (RMA) and instructions on return shipment. For details, see Appendix A.
2. Mount the 9161 in a rack or as a standalone unit.
•Use the standard rackmount kit with brackets and screws to install the 9161 in a 19-inch rack or
use the optional 23-inch rackmount kit. The 9161 includes two sets of mounting holes.
•For a front chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw holes at the
front of the side panel of the 9161, then secure the screws.
•For a mid- or recessed chassis mount, align the screw holes in the brackets with the screw
holes in the middle of the side panel of the 9161, then secure the screws.
•To use the 9161 as a standalone unit, place it on a secure, flat surface within reach of the power
and fiber optic connections
3. Connect the power. The 9161 can be equipped for either redundant or non-redundant power
supplies; AC or DC power.
•Plug the AC power cord into the socket at the rear of the 9161 and the wall socket.
Caution: Reversing the connections can damage both the DC source and the 9161.
•Connect power for the -48 VDC power supply.
•For a -48 VDC source, connect the grounding strap between the Chassis Ground and the
+VDC terminals.
•For a +48 VDC source, connect the grounding strap between the Chassis Ground and the
-VDC terminals.
4. Plug the SFP(s) into the 10G xport(s); the slot is keyed. To remove an SFP, either lift the bail or
press the button on the SFP, then gently pull it out.
9161 Network Interface Device 2-1

Cabling for the 9161 includes the serial cable to the Terminal port, the Ethernet cable for a UTP port,
and the fiber optic link to the Tx and Rx ports.
5. Plug the serial cable into the SLIP or Terminal port on the rear panel and your PC. For the
pinouts, see Chapter 5, Specifications.
•The EIA 232 Terminal port provides serial access to the management software.
•The SLIP port provides serial or modem access to the management software.
Dirty optical connectors are a common cause of link loss or attenuation problems, especially for SMF.
Clean the connectors before plugging in a cable and whenever there is a significant or unexplained
light loss. To prevent contamination, always install protective dust covers on unused fiber optic
connectors.
6. Wipe the ferrule and the end-face surface of the male fiber coupler with a lint-free, isopropyl
alcohol pad from a fiber cleaning kit.
7. Use canned air to blow any dust out of the female fiber coupler.
Caution: To avoid damaging the fiber end-surface or connector, use extreme care when
installing or removing cables.
8. Plug in the optical cables with Tx to Rx, Rx to Tx orientation.
Caution: To protect the Ethernet port from an intrabuilding lightning surge, use a properly
grounded shielded cable.
9. Label each cable and connector with the signal name and direction.
Canoga Perkins recommends that you determine and record link attenuation and transmission power
before starting normal link traffic. The attenuation factor and transmission power identify potential
problems with links near the lower limit of receiver limitations.
For details on link attenuation and transmission power, see Chapter 4.
This chapter describes the hardware features and functions of the 9161.
Power-Up, Hardware Functions, and LEDs
During the initial power-up sequence, all LEDs light amber. When start-up is complete, the setup and
installation are correct, and data is transmitting normally across the link, the STA LED lights green
and the LNK, Rx and Tx LEDs for both ports light green or blink green when they transmit or receive
data.
The LEDs show the system and port conditions. The STA and CFG LEDs show the management
conditions; see Table Error! Reference source not found.. Each interface module includes from
two to six LEDs; Table Error! Reference source not found. lists all possible LEDs. For details
about the LEDs, see your interface module and Tables Error! Reference source not found. and
Error! Reference source not found..

Remote Fault
If the Extension port Rx loses the signal, it sends a Remote Fault (RMTF) signal from its Tx, the Rx
LED is off, and an alarm flags the link loss on the Extension port; see Figure Error! Reference
source not found.. When the Extension port receives a Remote Fault signal, the Rx LED lights red
and an alarm flags the remote side optical link failure. Both local and remote link partners must be
configured to the same RMTF enable/disable setting. To set RMTF in software, reference Manage
Traps and Alarms. RMTF complies with the IEEE802.3u Remote Fault standard.

Figure 2. Remote Fault Signal
Link Loss Forwarding
When LLF is enabled, a fault on one side of the 9161 propagates to the other side to notify that device
and stops signal transmission (brings down the link). See Figure Error! Reference source not
found.. Set the LLF propagation to User to Extension, Extension to User, or both directions. Set this
in the User Interface.

Chapter 3
Using the Software
You can manage the system through VT100 Terminal Emulation, which is accessible by a Telnet
session, HyperTerminal or similar terminal emulation software, a standard SNMP network manager,
and CanogaView.
Setting Up for Network Management
Typically, the 9161 runs within the network on an Ethernet connection, communicating with your
Network Management Platform.
Set Up the Network Management Platform
You must run several Management Information Bases (MIBs) on your Network Management
Platform in order to successfully manage this module. Before you start, check that these industry-
standard MIBs are loaded:
•Standard MIB
•Dot2sd.mib
•Etherlike.mib
•If.mib
•Bridge.mib
•Pbridge.mib
In addition, download these private mibs, available from the Canoga Perkins web site; go to
www.Canoga.com, click Support, then click Software Download, and follow the prompts on screen.
•Cpsysinf.mib Supports SNMP access
•Cphost.mib Supports Host Table and Host Access functions
•Cptraptb.mib Supports the Trap Table
Setting up the VT100 session depends on which connection, serial port or Ethernet, you have
available for access to the VT100 management program. Canoga Perkins suggests that you use
HyperTerminal for your first session. You must set up TCP/IP before you can use Telnet.
