5.3.2 Connecting Ethernet Interfaces to OAMP and Control IP
Networks
For devices using the TP-8410 blades, you can cable the device to physically separate the
media, control, and OAMP traffic interfaces. Depending on configuration, the port allocation
is as follows:
Dedicated Port per Application Type:
• Media: Gigabit Ethernet port on RTM-8410 (see Section 5.3.3 on page 62 for
cabling instructions).
• Control: 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports labeled 1A (bottom Power Entry
Modules/PEM module) and 1B (top PEM module)
• OAMP: 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports labeled 2A (bottom PEM module) and 2B
(top PEM module)
Dedicated Port for OAMP and Dedicated Port for Media and Control:
• Media and Control: Gigabit Ethernet port on RTM-8410.
• OAMP: 10/100BaseT Ethernet ports labeled 2A (bottom PEM module) and 2B
(top PEM module)

The dual ports per network interface type provide 1+1 redundancy. These ports
connect directly to the active TP-8410 blade in the front panel.
The operating status of these ports is provided by the ETH LEDs on the TP-8410
blade (see Section 3.4.1.2 on page 30).
