Control Features

Each device’s front panel includes the following control features:

•

Serial management interface (the port labeled Console)

Reset button

Serial Management Interface (Console Port)

The serial management interface enables you to configure and manage the device using a third-party terminal

emulation application on a directly connected PC. A straight-through EIA/TIA DB-9 serial cable (M/F) ships with

the device. The serial management interface (the Console port) is located in the right corner of the front panel.

Reset Button

The reset button allows you to restart the system without removing power or using the CLI or Web management

interface. The button is located to the left of the serial management interface and is recessed to prevent it from

being pushed accidentally.

Product Overview

•

100/1000 ports with mini-GBIC slots for SFP MSA-compliant fiber transceivers

Optional 10-Gigabit uplink modules

For information about the type of fiber optic modules supported on the FastIron LS, see “Fiber Optic Modules” on

page 2-7.

FastIron LS 10/100/1000BASE-T Ports

The switches contain 24/48 RJ-45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100 Mbps, half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps,

full duplex. Because all ports on these switches support automatic MDI/MDI-X operation, you can use straight-

through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers, or to other switches or hubs. (See “1000BASE-T Pin

Assignments” on page B-3.) In addition, it is ideal and preferred to use MDIX cable for switch-to-switch

connections.

Each of these ports support auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), and data

rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If a device connected to one of these ports does not

support auto-negotiation, the communication mode of that port can be configured manually.

Network Interfaces

10 Gigabit Ethernet Module Slots

These switches include two slots on the rear panel for single-port 10GBASE uplink modules with XFP

transceivers, and a single port CX4 module. The 10GBASE transceivers operate at 10 Gbps full duplex with

support for asymmetric flow control (that is, the port honors incoming pause frames, but does not originate pause

frames).

10 Gbps CX4 Ports

This section describes the 10-GbE CX4 module.

10-GbE CX4 Module

The single-port CX4 module is installed in the FLS624 and FLS648 (shown in Figure 2.6). You can order the

FastIron LS with a single-port CX4 module installed at the factory, or you can later upgrade your device. This

module is a 10-GbE-CX4 Ethernet uplink card. It can perform data transmission directly through copper links to

15m(extended 30m) in length.

The following single-port CX4 module is supported:

•

single-port CX4 uplinks for 10-Gigabit.

Link and Activity LEDs on the module faceplates indicate operational status:

•

If the Lnk LED is on, the port is connected. If the Lnk LED is off, no connection exists, or the link is down.

If the Act LED is on or blinking, traffic is being transmitted and received on the port. If the Act LED is off, no

traffic is being transmitted or received on the port.

When this module is installed, the show media command returns the following display:

Fiber Optic Modules

A list of the types of fiber optic modules supported on Layer 2 Compact Switches can be found in “Cable length

summary table” on page 2-7

NOTE: Some older SFP modules (mini-GBICs for Gigabit Ethernet ports) have latching mechanisms that are

larger than the newer parts. These latches could interfere with one another when inserted side by side into a

SuperX module. Avoid using these mini-GBICs side by side in the same module. These older modules are

identified by the number PL-XPL-00-S13-22 or PL-XPL-00-L13-23 above the serial number. All newer mini-GBICs

do not have this limitation.

Power Supplies

There are two power receptacles on the rear panel of each switch. The standard power receptacle is for the AC

power cord. The receptacle labeled “RPS” is for the optional redundant power supply.

Optional Redundant Power Supply

The switch supports an optional redundant power supply (RPS), that can supply power to the switch in the event

the internal power supply fails.

Power Supply Receptacles

There are two power receptacles on the rear panel of each switch. The standard power receptacle is for the AC

power cord. The receptacle labeled “RPS” is for the optional redundant power supply.

Installing a Redundant Power Supply

About the RPS2-EIF Redundant Power Supply

Overview

Foundry Network’s External Redundant Power Supply (RPS2-EIF) can supply a maximum of 150 Watts of output

power per port, a total of 600 Watts of backup power to four FasrIron devices in the event of an AC loss or failure

of an internal power supply.

The system operates as a backup to a switch's internal power supply. If an internal power supply fails, the RPS will

support the full load of the switch without affecting network operation.

The following devices are supported by the FastIron RPS2-EIF: Foundry FastIron LS624 and FastIron LS648.

Features and Benefits

•

Supports four FastIron devices with 12V DC output

Status LEDs located on the front panel

AC line cord can draw power from a different supply circuit

DC line cord provides backup power to the attached device

Thermal overload protection prevents the RPS from overheating if a thermal overload occurs.

Over-voltage protection shuts down an output channel if the voltage exceeds a preset threshold.

Over-current protection shuts down the RPS if the output load exceeds a preset threshold.

Short-circuit protection prevents the RPS from being damaged from a short circuit on any output channel.

The power supply will operate under a no-load condition.

Front and Rear Panels

Four power indicators and one fan indicator are located on the RPS’s front panel. The AC supply and DC backup

receptacles are located on the RPS’s rear panel.

Verifying Proper Operation

After you have installed a redundant power supply, verify that the device is working properly by plugging it into a

power source and verifying that it passes the self test.

1. Connect the power cord supplied with the device to the power connector on the power supply on the rear of

the device.

2. Insert the other end into a properly grounded electrical outlet.

NOTE: The devices do not have power switches. They power on when you connect a power cord to the

device and to a power source.

If your installation requires a different power cord than that supplied with the device, make sure you obtain a

power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your

country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.

3. Verify that the LED for the power supply is green.

4. Verify proper operation by observing the LEDs:

All of the port LEDs should flash momentarily, usually in sequence, while the device performs diagnostics.

After the diagnostics are complete, the LEDs will be dark except for those that are attached by cables to other

devices. If the links on these cables are good and the device has power, the link LEDs will light.

For more details on specific LED conditions after system start-up, see the section, “LEDs” on page 3-9 and

“Hardware Specifications” on page 2-1.

Attaching a PC or Terminal

To assign an IP address, you must have access to the Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is a text-based

interface that can be accessed through a direct serial connection to the device and through Telnet connections.

The CLI is described in detail in the Foundry FastIron X Series Configuration Guide.

You need to assign an IP address using the CLI. You can access the CLI by attaching a serial cable to the

Console port. After you assign an IP address, you can access the system through Telnet, the Web management

interface, or IronView Network Manager.

To attach a management station using the serial port:

1. Connect a PC or terminal to the serial port of the system using a straight-through cable. The serial port has a

male DB-9 connector.

Assigning Permanent Passwords

Configuring IP Addresses

Connect your device to another networking device.

Troubleshoot any problems that can arise.

Assigning Permanent Passwords

By default, the CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Foundry strongly recommends assigning

passwords. See the Foundry Security Guide.

NOTE: You cannot assign a password using the Web management interface. You can assign passwords using

IronView Network Manager if an enable password for a Super User has been configured on the device.

The CLI contains the following access levels:

•

User EXEC – The level you enter when you first start a CLI session. At this level, you can view some system

information but you cannot configure system or port parameters.

•

Privileged EXEC – This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password. You can

perform tasks such as manage files on the flash module, save the system configuration to flash, and clear

caches at this level.

•

CONFIG – The configuration level. This level lets you configure the system’s IP address and configure

switching and routing features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already be logged into the Privileged

level of the EXEC mode.

September 2007

4 - 1

Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.

Foundry FastIron LS Layer 2 Compact Switch Hardware Installation Guide

You can set the following levels of Enable passwords:

•

Super User – Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for system

administrators and is the only password level that allows you to configure passwords.

NOTE: You must set a super user password before you can set other types of passwords.

•

Port Configuration – Allows read-and-write access for specific ports but not for global (system-wide)

parameters.

Read Only – Allows access to the Privileged EXEC mode and CONFIG mode but only with read access.

To set passwords:

1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter the following command to change to the Privileged level of the EXEC mode:

FLS648 Switch> enable

2. Access the CONFIG level of the CLI by entering the following command:

FLS648 Switch# configure terminal

FLS648 Switch(config)#

3. Enter the following command to set the super-user password:

FLS648 Switch(config)# enable super-user-password <text>

NOTE: You must set the super-user password before you can set other types of passwords.

4. Enter the following commands to set the port configuration and read-only passwords:

FLS648 Switch(config)# enable port-config-password <text>

FLS648 Switch(config)# enable read-only-password <text>

NOTE: If you forget your super-user password, see “Recovering from a Lost Password” on page 4-2.

Syntax: enable super-user-password | read-only-password | port-config-password <text>

Passwords can be up to 32 characters long.

Recovering from a Lost Password

By default, the CLI does not require passwords. However, if someone has configured a password for the device

but the password has been lost, you can regain super-user access to the device using the following procedure.

NOTE: Recovery from a lost password requires direct access to the serial port and a system reset.

To recover from a lost password:

1. Start a CLI session over the serial interface to the Foundry device.

2. Reboot the device.

3. While the system is booting, before the initial system prompt appears, enter b to enter the boot monitor mode.

4. Enter no password at the prompt. (You cannot abbreviate this command.)

5. Enter boot system flash primary at the prompt. This command causes the device to bypass the system

password check.

After the console prompt reappears, assign a new password.

Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity

Configuring IP Addresses

You must configure at least one IP address using the serial connection to the CLI before you can manage the

system using the other management interfaces. In addition, Foundry routers require an IP subnet address for the

subnet in which you plan to place them in your network.

Foundry devices support both classical IP network masks (Class A, B, and C subnet masks, and so on) and

Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) network prefix masks.

•

To enter a classical network mask, enter the mask in IP address format. For example, enter

“209.157.22.99 255.255.255.0” for an IP address with a Class-C subnet mask.

•

To enter a prefix number for a network mask, enter a forward slash ( / ) and the number of bits in the mask

immediately after the IP address. For example, enter “209.157.22.99/24” for an IP address that has a network

mask with 24 significant (“mask”) bits.

By default, the CLI displays network masks in classical IP address format (example: 255.255.255.0). You can

change the display to the prefix format. See the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry

Enterprise Configuration and Management Guide.

NOTE: If your network uses a BootStrap Protocol (BootP) server or a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol

(DHCP) server, you can allow the Foundry device to obtain IP addresses for the hosts on the network.

Devices Running Layer 2 Software

To configure an IP Address on a device running Layer 2 software:

1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.

FLS648 Switch> enable

2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt (for example, FLS648 Switch#), then press

Enter. This command erases the factory test configuration if still present:

FLS648 Switch# erase startup-config

CAUTION: Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a

system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentally do erase the

configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save the running configuration to

the startup-config file.

3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:

FLS648 Switch# configure terminal

FLS648 Switch(config)#

Privileged EXEC Level

Global CONFIG Level

4. Configure the IP address and mask for the switch.

FLS648 Switch(config)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0

5. Set a default gateway address for the switch.

FLS648 Switch(config)# ip default-gateway 192.22.3.1

NOTE: You do not need to assign a default gateway address for single subnet networks.

Syntax: enable [<password>]

Syntax: configure terminal

Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask>

Cable Specifications

See “Cable Specifications” on page 2-7 for cable lengths and types.

Connecting to Ethernet or Fast Ethernet Hubs

For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100BaseTX or 1000BaseT switch, or another Foundry device, a

crossover cable is required (Figure 4.1 and Figure 4.2). If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it will require a

straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.

NOTE: The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI/MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection

between two 1000Base-T ports. Therefore, a crossover cable may not be required; a straight-through cable may

work as well. For more information about this feature, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or

the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.

Connecting to Workstations, Servers, or Routers

Straight-through UTP cabling is required for direct UTP attachment to workstations, servers, or routers using

network interface cards (NICs).

Fiber cabling is required for direct attachment to Gigabit NICs or switches and routers via fiber ports. See

“Connecting a Network Device to a Fiber Port” on page 4-5.

Automatic MDI/MDIX Detection

All 10/100 and Gigabit Ethernet Copper ports on the Foundry FastIron devices support automatic Media

Dependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface Crossover (MDIX) detection. This feature is enabled

on all 10/100 and Gigabit copper ports by default. For each port, you can disable auto MDI/MDIX, designate the

port as an MDI port, or designate the port as an MDIX port.

For more information about this feature and how configure it, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration

Guide.

Connecting a Network Device to a Fiber Port

For direct attachment from the Foundry device to a Gigabit NIC, switch, or router, fiber cabling with an LC

connector is required.

To connect the Foundry device to another network device using a fiber port, you must do the following:

•

Install a fiber optic module (SFP transceiver or mini-GBIC for Gigabit Ethernet ports, or XFP-MSA transceiver

for 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports)

•

Cable the fiber optic module

The following sections provide information about performing these tasks.

Installing a Fiber Optic Module

You must install a fiber optic module (SFP or XFP transceiver) in each Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet

fiber port you want to use.

You can install a new fiber optic module in a port while the FastIron LS is powered on and running.

Before installing one of these modules into the port, have the following on hand:

•

An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to a metal surface.

WARNING: For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.

To install a fiber optic module, do the following:

1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by attaching the clip end to a metal surface (such as an

equipment rack) to act as ground.

prevent incorrect insertion.

Cabling a Fiber Optic Module

To cable a fiber optic module, do the following:

1. Remove the protective covering from the fiber-optic port connectors and store the covering for future use.

2. Before cabling a fiber optic module, Foundry strongly recommends cleaning the cable connectors and the

port connectors. For more information, see “Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors” on page 4-6.

3. Gently insert the cable connector(s) (a tab on each connector should face upward) into the port connector(s)

until the tabs lock into place.

4. Observe the link and active LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly. For more

information about the LED indicators, see Table 4.2 on page 4-7.

Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors

To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber optic module (SFP (mini-GBIC) or XFP) and the fiber

cable connectors, Foundry strongly recommends cleaning both connectors each time you disconnect and

reconnect them. In particular, dust can accumulate in the connectors and cause problems such as reducing the

optic launch power.

To clean the fiber cable connectors, Foundry recommends using the fiber-optic reel-type cleaner that shipped with

your FastIron LS. You can also purchase this type of cleaner from the following Website:

http://www.fisfiber.com/Home_Page.asp

When not using an SFP or XFP connector, make sure to keep the protective covering on.

Testing Connectivity

You can observe the LEDs related to network connection.

Observing LEDs

After you install the network cables, you can observe certain LEDs to determine if the network connections are

functioning properly. T a ble 4.2 outlines the LEDs related to the network connections, the desired state of each

LED, possible abnormal states of each LED, and what to do if an LED indicates an abnormal state.

Managing FastIron LS Temperature Settings

This section describes how to display temperature settings on the FastIron LS and how to change the temperature

warning and shutdown levels.

Using the Temperature Sensor on the FastIron LS

The FastIron LS comes with a built-in temperature sensor. The temperature sensor causes the device to generate

a Syslog message and SNMP trap if the temperature exceeds a specified warning level or shutdown level. If the

device’s temperature exceeds the safe threshold (shutdown level), the device will reboot if it stays in the safe

threshold for five minutes.

The software reads the temperature sensor according to the device poll time, which is 60 seconds by default. If

the temperature equals or exceeds the shutdown temperature for five consecutive polls of the temperature by the

software, the software will reboot the device to prevent damage.

Power and Cooling Problems

If the power indicator does not turn on when the power cord is plugged in, you may have a problem

with the power outlet, power cord, or internal power supply. However, if the unit powers off after

running for a while, check for loose power connections, power losses or surges at the power outlet,

and verify that the fans on the unit are unobstructed and running prior to shutdown. If you still cannot

isolate the problem, then the internal power supply may be defective. In this case, contact Technical

Support for assistance.

Installation

Verify that all system components have been properly installed. If one or more components appear

to be malfunctioning (such as the power cord or network cabling), test them in an alternate

environment where you are sure that all the other components are functioning properly.

In-Band Access

You can access the management agent in the switch from anywhere within the attached network

using Telnet, a Web browser, or other network management software. However, you must first

configure the switch with a valid IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway. If you have trouble

establishing a link to the management agent, check to see if you have a valid network connection.

Then verify that you entered the correct IP address. Also, be sure the port through which you are

connecting to the switch has not been disabled. If it has not been disabled, then check the network

cabling that runs between your remote location and the switch.

Cautions and Warnings

The cautions and warnings that appear in this manual are listed below in English, German, French, and Spanish.

Cautions

A caution calls your attention to a possible hazard that can damage equipment.

"Vorsicht" weist auf eine mögliche Beschädigung des Geräts hin. Sie finden die folgenden Vorsichtshinweise in

diesem Handbuch.

Une mise en garde attire votre attention sur un risque possible d'endommagement de l'équipement. Ci-dessous,

vous trouverez les mises en garde utilisées dans ce manuel.

Un mensaje de precaución le advierte sobre un posible peligro que pueda dañar el equipo. Las siguientes son

precauciones utilizadas en este manual.

CAUTION:

Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might

exceed 50 C (121 F).

VORSICHT:

Das Gerät darf nicht in einer Umgebung mit einer Umgebungsbetriebstemperatur von über

50 C (121 F) installiert werden.

MISE EN GARDE: N'installez pas le dispositif dans un environnement où la température d'exploitation ambiante

risque de dépasser 50 C (121 F).

PRECAUCIÓN:

No instale el instrumento en un entorno en el que la temperatura ambiente de operación

pueda exceder los 50 C (121 F).

CAUTION:

Make sure the air flow around the front, sides, and back of the device is not restricted.

VORSICHT:

Stellen Sie sicher, dass an der Vorderseite, den Seiten und an der Rückseite der Luftstrom

nicht behindert wird.

MISE EN GARDE: Vérifiez que rien ne restreint la circulation d'air devant, derrière et sur les côtés du dispositif et

qu'elle peut se faire librement.

PRECAUCIÓN:

Asegúrese de que el flujo de aire en las inmediaciones de las partes anterior, laterales y

posterior del instrumento no esté restringido.

Foundry FastIron LS Layer 2 Compact Switch Hardware Installation Guide

CAUTION:

Use a separate branch circuit for each AC power cord, which provides redundancy in case

one of the circuits fails.

VORSICHT:

Es empfiehlt sich die Installation eines separaten Stromkreiszweiges für jede Wechselstrom-

Elektroschnur als Redundanz im Fall des Ausfalls eines Stromkreises.

MISE EN GARDE: Utilisez un circuit de dérivation différent pour chaque cordon d’alimentation C.A. Ainsi, il y

aura un circuit redondant en cas de panne d’un des circuits.

PRECAUCIÓN:

CAUTION:

Use un circuito derivado separado para cada cordón de alimentación de CA, con lo que se

proporcionará redundancia en caso de que uno de los circuitos falle.

Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current

protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere

(amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this total

with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the

devices near the input power connectors.

VORSICHT:

Stromkreise, Verdrahtung und Überlastschutz dürfen nicht durch das Gerät überbelastet

werden. Addieren Sie die Nennstromleistung (in Ampere) aller Geräte, die am selben

Stromkreis wie das Gerät installiert sind. Somit können Sie feststellen, ob die Gefahr einer

Überbelastung der Versorgungsstromkreise vorliegt. Vergleichen Sie diese Summe mit der

Nennstromgrenze des Stromkreises. Die Höchstnennströme (in Ampere) stehen

normalerweise auf der Geräterückseite neben den Eingangsstromanschlüssen.

MISE EN GARDE: Assurez-vous que le dispositif ne risque pas de surcharger les circuits d'alimentation, le

câblage et la protection de surintensité. Pour déterminer le risque de surcharge des circuits

d'alimentation, additionnez l'intensité nominale (ampères) de tous les dispositifs installés sur

le même circuit que le dispositif en question. Comparez alors ce total avec la limite de charge

du circuit. L'intensité nominale maximum en ampères est généralement imprimée sur chaque

dispositif près des connecteurs d'entrée d'alimentation.

PRECAUCIÓN:

Verifique que el instrumento no sobrecargue los circuitos de corriente, el cableado y la

protección para sobrecargas. Para determinar la posibilidad de sobrecarga en los circuitos de

suministros, añada las capacidades nominales de corriente (amp) de todos los instrumentos

instalados en el mismo circuito que el instrumento. Compare esta suma con el límite nominal

para el circuito. Las capacidades nominales de corriente máximas están generalmente

impresas en los instrumentos, cerca de los conectores de corriente de entrada.

CAUTION:

Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a

system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you

accidentally do erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory

command to save the running configuration to the startup-config file.

VORSICHT:

Verwenden Sie den Befehl "Erase startup-config" (Löschen Startup-Konfig) nur für neue

Systeme. Wenn Sie diesen Befehl in ein bereits konfiguriertes System eingeben, löscht der

Befehl die Konfiguration. Falls Sie aus Versehen die Konfiguration eines bereits konfigurierten

Systems löschen, geben Sie den Befehl "Write Memory" (Speicher schreiben) ein, um die

laufende Konfiguration in der Startup-Konfig-Datei zu speichern.

MISE EN GARDE: N'utilisez la commande erase startup-config que pour les nouveaux systèmes. Si vous entrez

cette commande sur un système que vous avez déjà configuré, elle efface la configuration. Si

vous effacez la configuration par accident sur un système configuré, entrez la commande

write memory pour enregistrer la configuration actuelle dans le fichier startup-config.

PRECAUCIÓN:

Use el comando erase startup-config (borrar configuración de inicio) para sistemas nuevos

solamente. Si usted introduce este comando en un sistema que ya ha configurado, el

comando borrará la configuración. Si usted borra accidentalmente la configuración en un

sistema ya configurado, introduzca el comando write memory (escribir memoria) para

guardar la configuración en ejecución en el archivo startup-config.
