PMC-Sierra,Inc.
PM3380
鈥?Hardware statistics collection supports
RMON-I (nine groups), Ethernet MIB,
and SNMP agent functions.
鈥?All statistics registers and data
structures accessible through the CMI.
鈥?Supports the implementation of
Spanning Tree (IEEE 802.1D) by
exchanging BPDU packets on all ports.
Gigabit Ethernet Switch Port Controller
FEATURES
鈥?Monolithic intelligent Gigabit Ethernet
Switch Port Controller.
鈥?Integrates an IEEE 802.3z-compatible
Gigabit MAC.
鈥?May be used alone or in combination
with other devices to build 10/100 or
Gigabit switches.
鈥?Supports the Gigabit EXACT鈩?Bus
Protocol for device interconnect.
鈥?May be used alone or in combination
with other device to build high density
Gigabit switches.
鈥?PM3390 EXACT Bus Switch Matrix
allows non-blocking expansion up to
16 Gigabit ports.
鈥?Layer 2 line rate address lookup
capability for all Ethernet port
configurations supported.
鈥?Store-and-forward switching using
output association input buffering for
efficient memory use without Head Of
Line (HOL) blocking.
鈥?Supports up to 8,000 MAC addresses.
鈥?1022 multicast groups available.
Bitmask per group defines
membership.
鈥?EXACT Bus is compatible with
common serial devices for simple
system stacking using coax or twinax
cable.
鈥?Support for IEEE 802.1D bridging and
spanning tree algorithm in an external
processor.
鈥?Embedded SmartPath鈩?Processor
supports value-added datapath
operations.
鈥?Two 32-bit memory interfaces for
flexible combinations of SSRAM and
EPROM allow cost optimization of
different applications.
鈥?Programmable packet pattern
matchers for identification of ARP,
RARP, ICMP, and other protocol or
packet types.
