The XGLC use a Small Form Factor Pluggable Plus (SFP+) module. The modules support one of two media
types: 10GBASE-SR (Short Reach) 850nm, 300m over multimode fiber (MMF), or 10GBASE-LR (Long
Reach) 1310nm, 10km over single mode fiber (SMF).
The XGLC is configured and monitored by the SMC via the system's control bus. If the firmware needs to
be upgraded. the XGLC uses the Star Channel for a faster download.
Install XGLCs in chassis slots 17 through 23 and 26 through 32. These cards should always be installed
directly behind their respective packet processing cards, but they are not required behind any redundant packet
processing cards (those operating in Standby mode).
The supported redundancy schemes for XGLC are L3, Equal Cost Multi Path (ECMP) and 1:1 side-by-side
redundancy.
Side-by-side redundancy allows two XGLC cards installed in neighboring slots to act as a redundant pair.
Side-by-side pair slots are 17-18, 19-20, 21-22, 23-26, 27-28, 29-30, and 31-32.
Side-by-side redundancy only works with XGLC cards. When configured for non-XGLC cards, the cards are
brought offline. If the XGLCs are not configured for side-by-side redundancy, they run independently without
redundancy.
When you first configure side-by-side redundancy, the higher-numbered slot's configuration is erased and
then duplicated from the lower-numbered slot. The lower-numbered top slot retains all other configuration
settings. While side by side redundancy is configured, all other configuration commands work as if the side
by side slots were top-bottom slots. Configuration commands directed at the bottom slots either fail with
errors or are disallowed.
When you unconfigure side-by-side redundancy, the configuration for the higher-numbered top and bottom
slots are initialized to the defaults. The configuration for the lower-numbered slot retains all other configuration
settings. If you install non-XGLC cards in the slots, you may bring them back online.
