3-1 Chapter 3 Operation The 9E312-12 module is a thirteen port device; twelve front panel ports, each repr esents a separate Ethernet collision domain and one port connected to INB1. As shown in Figure 3-1, Ethernet Network Interface Blocks (ENIBs) convert data packets received fr om any front panel port into a canonical frame format befor e forwar[...]

Operation 3-2 ENIB The Ethernet Network Interface Block (ENIB) converts Ethernet data packets received thr ough front panel ports into a common canonical format that allows the Fast Packet Switching Engine to determine the proper destination port. The ENIB also converts data packets from the common canonical format back to Ethernet data packets for[...]

3-3 INB NIB INB NIB Each module that attaches to the Internal Network Bus (INB ) has an INB Network Interface Block (NIB). The INB NIB converts canonical frames to fixed length data blocks for transmission onto the INB. For data blocks received fr om the INB, the INB NIB reassembles the data blocks r eceived from the INB back into canonical frames[...]
