Asanté IntraCore 35160 Series Layer 2 Gigabit Switches
1Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Asanté IntraCore 35160 Series Giga-
bit switch. These switches are a family of multi-media and multi-
protocol switches capable of supporting Layer 2 switching and
Layer 3 and Layer 4 protocols. They are designed to offer industry-
leading performance at a very competitive cost of ownership.
Each IntraCore 35160 switch is a 16-port solution for Gigabit
Ethernet switching using shared-memory architecture to achieve
Gigabit switching on all ports. The highly integrated system includes
MACs, Address Look-up Content Addressable Memory (CAM),
Switch Engine, Primary Buffer Memory, and programmable Quality
of Service (QoS).
Two models in the 35160 series cover different customer applica-
tions.
The IntraCore 35160-T is a 16-port switch that has 12 10/100/
1000BaseT ports and 4 dual function Gigabit ports that support ei-
ther 1000BaseT RJ-45 Gigabit ports or GBIC Gigabit ports.
The IntraCore 35160-G is a 16-port switch that has 12 GBIC style
Gigabit Ethernet ports and 4 dual function Gigabit ports that support
either 1000BaseT RJ-45 Gigabit ports or GBIC Gigabit ports.
The following types of GBIC modules are supported on the 35160
switches:
•1000SX multi-mode fiber for 500m applications
•1000LX single-mode fiber for 2km applications
•1000LHsingle-mode fiber for 20km applications
•1000LZ single-mode fiber for ultra distance (120km) appli-
cations
•1000BaseT Copper Gigabit for low-cost 100m applications
The system can operate as a stand-alone network or be used in
combination with other IntraCore series switches in the backbone.

1.4 Front and Back Panel Descriptions
Refer to the following sections for detailed descriptions of the front
and back panels of the IntraCore 35160 series switches.
1.4.1 IC35160-T
The front panel of the IC35160-T contains the following: power and
port LEDs; 12 10/100/1000BaseT ports; 4 dual-function Gigabit
ports that support either 1000BaseT or GBIC style Gigabit Ethernet
ports; and a console port.
The back panel, shown below, contains a 12VDC jack for (optional)
emergency power; the primary power bay cover plate; the primary
power outlet; and the on/off switch.
1.4.2 IC35160-G
The front panel of the 35160-G contains the following: power and
port LEDs; 12 GBIC ports; 4 dual-function Gigabit ports that support
either 1000BaseT or GBIC style Gigabit Ethernet ports; and a con-
sole port.

10 Setup Guide
The back panel, shown below, contains: A 12VDC jack for (optional)
emergency power; the primary power bay cover plate; the on/off
switch; and the primary power outlet.
1.5 Management and Configuration
A network administrator can manage the switch with three different
methods: web, console/telnet, or SNMP software. They may prefer
using a web browser to enable configuring the switch from any local
or remote computer, via the network, or they may wish to use a
console for out-of-band management. The switch’s default IP ad-
dress is192.168.0.1 and the default password isAsante (the pass-
word is case sensitive and must appear exactly as it is shown here).
SNMP is an advanced management application, and is mostly auto-
matic, giving the information without having to go through an inter-
face step-by-step (Note: The switch is shipped with BootP support.
See Appendix F BootP Configurationof the User’s Manual for more
information on setting up BootP.)
1.5.1 Console Interface
Users can access the switch in a more traditional way by connect-
ing a PC or terminal to the console port or by telnet across the net-
work. The menus are organized in a manner similar to the web-
based interface. A detailed description can be found inChapter 3
Configuration of the User’s Manual (CD-ROM.)
Note: By default, the HTTP server is disabled. In order to manage
the switch through the web interface, the HTTP server function must
be enabled via the console interface.
