8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM

8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM Overview

The ports of the 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet small form-factor pluggable Gigabit-Backplane Physical Interface Module (SFP XPIM) can be used for connecting to Ethernet WAN service as well as for local server connectivity at Gigabit Ethernet speeds. The XPIM enables Layer 2 line-rate Gigabit switching and system-processor dependent Layer 3 service with connection of up to eight SFP Gigabit Ethernet ports. The 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM complements the on-board 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet interfaces with extended WAN connectivity. It supports a variety of transceivers. This XPIM can be used in copper and optical environments to provide maximum flexibility when upgrading from an existing infrastructure to Metro Ethernet.

The 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet XPIM can be installed only in XPIM slots 3 and 6 on the SRX550 High Memory Services Gateways.

Figure 1 shows the front panel of the 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM.

The 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet small form-factor pluggable XPIM (SFP XPIM) has the following key features:

  • 8 triple-speed (10/100/1000 Mbps) Ethernet ports, single-high card

  • PoE not supported

  • PCI-Express interface for control and management

  • I2C interface for module monitor and identification

  • Maximum module power of 40 W without PoE

  • JTAG support for boundary scan test

CAUTION:

The Juniper Networks Technical Assistance Center (JTAC) provides complete support for Juniper-supplied optical modules and cables. However, JTAC does not provide support for third-party optical modules and cables that are not qualified or supplied by Juniper Networks. If you face a problem running a Juniper device that uses third-party optical modules or cables, JTAC may help you diagnose host-related issues if the observed issue is not, in the opinion of JTAC, related to the use of the third-party optical modules or cables. Your JTAC engineer will likely request that you check the third-party optical module or cable and, if required, replace it with an equivalent Juniper-qualified component.

Use of third-party optical modules with high-power consumption (for example, coherent ZR or ZR+) can potentially cause thermal damage to or reduce the lifespan of the host equipment. Any damage to the host equipment due to the use of third-party optical modules or cables is the users’ responsibility. Juniper Networks will accept no liability for any damage caused due to such use.

8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM Basic Configuration

The 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet small form-factor pluggable Gigabit-Backplane Physical Interface Module (SFP XPIM) provides connectivity to a single Gigabit Ethernet device or to a network. After you install the XPIM in the services gateway, you configure a network interface on the XPIM.

Note:

The SRX550 High Memory Services Gateway does not support hot-swappable functionality for GPIMs.

To configure a network interface on the 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM :

  1. Verify that the 8-Port Gigabit Ethernet SFP XPIM is installed in the services gateway:

    user@host >show chassis hardware

  2. Verify that the PIC on the XPIM is online:

    user@host> show chassis fpc pic-status

  3. Verify that the network interface that you want to configure on the XPIM is up:

    user@host> show interfaces terse

  4. Assign the interface an IP address:

    [edit]user@host# set interfaces interface-name unit 0 family inet address interface address/destination prefix

  5. Add or select a security zone; for example, Trust:

    [edit]user@host# set security zones security-zone trust interfaces ge-0/0/x.0 host-inbound-traffic system-services all

    where x is less than or equal to 16

  6. Add or select security zones for host inbound traffic protocol options:

    [edit]user@host# set security zones security-zone trust interfaces ge-0/0/x.0 host-inbound-traffic protocols all

    where x is less than or equal to 8

  7. Set security policies:

    [edit]user@host# set security policies default-policy permit-all
