Management Modules
The management module provides general-purpose CPU delivery and contains
dedicated high availability (HA) and management interfaces. It handles tasks such
as management access, session setup and termination, and Internet Key Exchange
(IKE) negotiation.
The management module assists other system elements, primarily with non-flow
related tasks. It provides overall management and control of the system. Although it
performs system management, the primary function of the management module is
to support the other modules.
Features of the management module include:
A management port, for WebUI management or CLI sessions
An RJ-45 console port, for connecting serial terminal emulation programs such
as HyperTerminal
Two HA ports
A modem port
The management module also has port Link and Activity LEDs, CPU utilization
indicators, a high availability (HA) LED, an Alarm LED, a Status LED, a Flash LED,
and a Power LED. In addition, it has a compact flash slot for flash memory card
installation. See “Port Descriptions and LED Status” on page 61 for descriptions of
the LED lights.
