Colleagues, hi again
I need an MLX-8 with redundant route processor, switch fabric and power;
seven 10Gx4 linecards and single 20-port GE/SFP.
Seems like an excellent question for your account team. Have you
gotten insufficient answers from your reseller?
Whether the following spec correct and confirm these requirements? -
NI-MLX-8-AC (NI MLX 8-SLOT CHASSIS, 1 MR, 2 SF3, 2 AC) :: 1
NI-MLX-MR (NI MLX MANAGEMENT MODULE) :: 1
NI-MLX-10GX4 (NI MLX 4-PORT 10GE) :: 7
NI-MLX-1GX20-SFP (NetIron MLX Series 20-port FE/GE (100/1000)) :: 1
You're short one SF3 and two power supplies if you want redundancy.
Also, whether these are correct transceivers for TGE and GE linecards? -
10G-XFP-LR (OPTIC, 10GBE, LR, XFP, SMF, LC CONNECTOR)
E1MG-LX (1000BaseLX SFP optic SMF, LC connector)
If you're in search of 1000baseLX and 10GBASE-LR connectivity, then yes.
and is it mandatory to use Brocade's own transceivers (as Cisco
requires) or it's ok to use anything?
At the moment MLX/XMR software will whine but work fine with
differently-branded optics. I don't think anybody can say anything
about whether things will stay this way, what with Brocade being more
on the enterprise side rather than in the ISP market. Optics
independence with no dicking around (like disabling DOM) is on my
requirements list, though.
