Extreme Networks 59100 Series User manual

a. Prepare the rack

• Provide the equivalent of two racks of vertical space for each ERS 59100

Series in an EIA or IEC-standard 19-inch (48.2-centimeter)

equipment rack.

• Ensure that the equipment rack is stable and securely attached to a

permanent structure.

• Ground the rack to the same grounding electrode used by the power

service in the area. The ground path must be permanent and must not

exceed 1 Ohm of resistance from the rack to the grounding electrode.

It is recommended to use a filter or surge suppressor.

b. When you install the switch into a network, ensure to use the

following cables:

•

Category 5E or higher specification cabling must be used for 1 Gbps/1000

Mbps operation.

• RJ-45 and DB-9 console port cables and adaptors are as follows:

Confirm that you have the tools and package contents as follows:

Tools Required:

• Phillips #2 screwdriver

• Console cable

• ESD cable (optional)

c. Stacking cables:

2. Slide the switch into the

rack. Insert and tighten

the rack-mount screws.

For correct switch operation, install both Fan Trays so that the airflow direction

matches the primary Power Supply.

Fan trays can only be inserted in one direction.

• Use the location pin on the Fan Tray to ensure correct orientation in the chassis.

The Fan Tray is upright if the location pin is at the top.

• Once the Fan Tray is installed, tighten the thumbscrews.

Stacking

The Ethernet Routing Switch 59100 Series provides fail-safe stackability. You can

connect up to four ERS 59100 Series devices in a stack to provide uninterrupted

connectivity for up to 416 ports. You can manage the stack as a single unit.

The Ethernet Routing Switch 59100 series back panel provides a Base Unit switch,

Cascade Down connector, and Cascade Up connector for stacking purposes as

shown below:

SDN/Aux Port

Cascade

Down Port

Cascade Up Port

Base Select

Switch

Base Unit Switch – used to designate the base unit in a stack. When set to the

DOWN position, this unit acts as the Base Unit for the stack.

Cascade Down and Cascade Up connectors – used to connect a switch to the

next unit in the stack through a cascade cable. Connect one end of the Cascade

Down cable to the Cascade Up connector of the next switch in the stack (shown in

the simple three-switch stack connection block diagram below):

Simplified Stacking diagram

1 = Base unit

2 = Last unit

3 = 0.5m Cascade/Stack cable

4 = 1.0m Cascade/Stack cable

To create a stack connection, order the appropriate Ethernet Routing Switch

59100 Series cascade cables to ensure fail-safe stacking. For stacking

three or more units (maximum stack port count cannot exceed 416 ports, or

4 units), order 0.5 m, 1 m, 3 m or 5 m cables as applicable.

Note: You can mix ERS 59100 switches with other ERS 5900 models in the same

stack, as long as the total port count does not exceed 416.

1. Ensure that all switches for the stack are rack mounted.

2. Slide the Unit Select switches on the back of the units to the appropriate

position, depending on whether they are a base unit or non-base unit:

• Base Unit (Unit 1) - Slide the Base Unit switch to the DOWN position.

• Non-Base Unit (Units 2-4) - Slide the Unit Select switch to the UP position.

Because stack parameters are associated with the base unit, the physical

stack order depends on the base unit position and whether you configure the

stack cascade up (stack up) or cascade down (stack down). This designation

depends on the stack cabling arrangement.

NOTE: It is recommended you use a Cascade Down (stack down)

configuration.

3. For a Cascade Down configuration, connect stack cables as shown below:

Cascade Down configuration

1 = Base unit

2 = Last unit

3 = 0.5m Cascade/Stack cable

4 = 1.0m Cascade/Stack cable

(Return cable)

Note: Return cable length may

vary depending on unit spacing.

Please ensure proper length

return cable is ordered to

provide adequate strain relief.

You can install an AC power supply into either power supply slot in

the switch.

The airflow direction of the power supply in PS1 determines the primary airflow

direction for the switch. If PS1 is not present, PS2 determines the airflow

direction. If any power supply location is unpopulated, a PSU Filler Panel must

be installed.

1. Insert the first power supply into the rear PS1 power supply slot. If a blanking

plate covers the required power supply slot, remove the plate before

inserting the power supply. A small angle on the top corner of the power

supply ensures that the power supply can only be installed in one orientation

in the switch.

2. Verify that the power supply is fully seated in the slot and securely clipped in

place.

3. Optional: Install the other power supplies into the rear power supply slots.

The airflow direction must match the primary Power Supply. The switch ships

with a filler panel in PS2, PS3 and PS4 positions. Leave the filler panel in

place if you do not install the other power supplies.

Before installing, ensure the switch is up and running, and operating normally. Verify

that the SFP or SFP+ transceivers and network cabling support your network

configuration. Note: The ERS 59100 supports Hot-Swapping of SFP and SFP+

transceivers and direct attach cables.

1. If you are installing SFP direct attach cables, remove packaging, insert the

transceiver connector into a switch port and insert the opposite end into the SFP

port of the corresponding network device.

If you are installing SFP or SFP+ optical transceivers, remove packaging and insert

the pluggable transceiver connector into a switch port.

2. Remove the network interface cover from the transceiver connector

(if applicable) and insert an appropriate network interface cable into

the transceiver.

3. Connect the opposite end of the network interface cable to your network.

4. In both cases, ensure that the device clicks and locks into place.

The console port is the RJ-45 port shown with a blue border outline on the front

of your ERS 59100 Series switch (note orientation). Use the console cable

(AL2011022-E6) to connect the switch console port to your management

terminal. The maximum length of a console cable is 25 feet (8.3 meters). The

following table describes the RJ-45 console port pin-out information. You can

use the pin-out information to verify or create a console cable for use with your

maintenance terminal.

The CLI Quickstart welcome screen helps you enter the information

requested at each prompt.

Note: The ERS 59100 uses the default IP address of 192.168.1.1/24 if the switch does

not get its IP address from another source.

Note: the default IP address is not applicable to the out-of-band

management port.

Terminal emulation settings

Warning: You must use a power cord set approved for the ERS 5900 Series

switch and the power receptacle type in your country. Ensure you have properly

grounded the switch before powering up the unit.

The switch will power on immediately when it is connected to a suitable AC

power source. The switch does not have a power switch.

Check the front-panel LEDs as the device powers on to be sure the PWR LED

is lit. If not, check if the power cord is correctly connected.

Check LED status of the fans and power supplies. Status LEDs are on the left

front side of the switch. For more information on all status LEDs, see Installing

ERS 5900 Series.
