Ethernet Satellites

The Ethernet satellite support feature allows a 7210 SAS-Sx or SAS-S chassis to act as a port extension for the 7750 SR host. In this configuration, all configuration and management functions are performed through the host node. Management of the SAS-Sx/SAS-S node is not required when it is configured in an Ethernet satellite operations mode. A direct, non-switched, Ethernet connection between the 7750/7950 host and the 7210 satellite must be provided. The use of active Layer 2 switching devices in the path between the host and satellite is not supported.

Table 1 lists the supported Ethernet satellite chassis.
