2.1 Environmental Requirements
2.2 Rack-Mount Installation
Chapter 2 Mounting the Switch
Data Center, Enterprise & ISP Network Solutions
02
There are two ways to mount the switch:
• Set the switch on a flat surface.
• Mount the switch in a standard rack (1 rack unit high).
Before you begin installing your switch, prepare the installation site. Make sure your operating
environment meets the operating environment requirements of the equipment.
Ambient Temperature: Ambient temperature between 0°C and 45°C. No nearby heat sources
such as direct sunlight, warm air exhausts, or heaters.
Air Flow: Both side panels must be unobstructed to prevent overheating, adequate airflow in
room or wiring closet.
Mechanical Loading: The device must be level, stable, and secure to prevent it from sliding or
shifting out-of-position.
Circuit Loading: Adding the device to the power outlet must not overload that circuit.
Grounding: Rack-mounted equipment should be properly grounded to guarantee lightening
protection and anti-jamming.
Step 1: Wear ESD-preventive wrist strap, and check the grounding and stability of rack.
Step 2: Fix the tray to a proper position of rack horizontally.
Step 3: Take out screw (complete package with front hangers), and install one end of the Front
Mounting Brackets on switch.

2.3 Install the Switch on a Workbench
In many cases, users do not have a standard 19" rack, so people often place switches on a
cleaning working platform.
Such operation is relatively simple, and the only following aspects should be concerned during
operation:
•Ensure the working platform is stable and well earthed.
•A 10 cm space around switch is left for heat dissipation.
•Do not place heavy objects on switches.
Installation Recommendations:
When installing a variety of equipment on the same cabinet, it is recommended to install the
heavy equipment at the bottom or near the bottom of the cabinet to reduce the center of gravity
of the cabinet.
Figure 2-2
Step 4: Place switch on the tray horizontally, push it slightly into the rack along the tray, and fix
the other end of Front Mounting Brackets upon the front hold strip of rack using screw
and its matching floating nut.

There are 4 foot pads that come with the device. Paste them onto the bottom near the corners
of the switch, as shown below:
Note: Please use the DB-9 to RJ-45 Console cable which we provide together with this
device. Use the DB-9 to RJ-45 Console cable from other vendors maybe can’t access
this device.

Chapter 3 Configuring the Switch
3.1 Building Configuration Platform and Connecting Cable
Connect DB-9 hole-type plug of configuration cable to the serial port for configuring switch.
Connect RJ-45 end of configuration cable to the console port of switch.
3.2 Setting Terminal Parameter (Windows super terminal):
Turn on PC and run emulator program (eg. Windows system has its own super terminal) on PC.
Set terminal parameters (take the super terminal setting of Windows XP as an example).
Step 1: Click “Start→Program→Attachment→Communication→Super Terminal” to enter the
Super Terminal window and establish a new connection, then a connection description
interface will pop up.
Step 2: Type the name of the new connection in the Name text box (For example: Network) and
click OK. The following dialog box appears. Select the serial port to be used from the
connect using drop-down lists.

Step 3: When the Network Properties dialog box is displayed as shown in following figure. Set
Bits per second to 115200, Data bits to 8, Parity to None, Stop bits to 1, and Flow
control to None. (In other Windows operating systems, bits per second may be described
as baud rate and data stream control may be described as traffic control.)
Step 4: Click OK after setting the serial port parameters and input the user name/password:
admin/admin, then enter the HyperTerminal window.
Step 5: Click Properties in the HyperTerminal window to enter the Network Properties dialog box.
Click the Settings tab, set the emulation to VT100, and then click OK.
Note: Please use the DB-9 to RJ-45 Console cable which we provide together with this
device. Use the DB-9 to RJ-45 Console cable from other vendors maybe can’t access
this device.

3.3 Setting Terminal Parameter (SecureCRT from VanDyke Software):
Install the SecureCRT software on PC. Set SecureCRT Serial terminal parameters.
Step 1: Click “Quick Connect” button to enter the SecureCRT quick connect window.
Step 2: Choose the “Serial” as the Protocol.
Step 3: In the Port item, please choose specified COM port that the PC is using. (Here we take
COM4 as an example.)
Step 4: Set Baud rate to 115200, Data bits to 8, Parity to None, Stop bits to 1, and Flow control
to XON/XOFF. Then click Connect button to enter the Serial display interface.
Step 5: If the network advice is connected with PC via Serial cable, you could see the command
line interface (CLI) when you push down the “Enter” button of the PC.

Chapter 4 Maintenance and Troubleshooting
After loading fails, the system will keep running in the original version. At this time, users should
re-check if physical port connections are good firstly. If some ports are not connected, then
re-connect them to ensure that physical connections are correct, and begin re-loading. If physical
connections are correct, then check the loading process information displayed on the super
terminal to verify if there are input errors. If there are input errors, correct them and re-load.
For example, when using TFTP protocol, we enter incorrect IP addresses of Server and Switch,
name of loading software, do not specify the correct working path of correct TFTP server and
so on; if physical connections are good, and there are no input errors in the loading process
but the loading fails finally, please contact agents for help.
4.1 Loading Failure Processing:
4.2 User Password Lost:
If system password is lost or forgotten, the following method can be used to reset password:
1. Enter uBoot operation mode. (See the further information. Refer to the Chapter 7 of Switch
Installation Guide on website for how to enter.)
2. Input boot_flash_nopass command to start system in uBoot mode.
4.3 Power System Troubleshooting:
Switch can judge if its power system is faulty according to the PWR indicator on the front panel:
when power system works normally, the PWR indicator shall always keep lighting; when the PWR
indicator is off, please check if:
1. The power line of switch is connected correctly.
2. EPS of switch matches the power required by switch.
Not all models will have all of the features described.

4.5 No Information on the Terminal:
4.4 Configuration SystemTroubleshooting:
After power-on, if no display information on configuration terminal appears, please check if:
The power is normal.
The cable of configuration port (Console) is properly connected. If no problems have been found
after the above checks, it is possible that configuration cable is faulty or the parameter setting of
terminal (such as super terminal) are incorrect, please check accordingly.
Troubleshooting for the terminal displaying hashes:
If the configuration terminal displays hashes, it is probable that the parameter setting of terminal
(such as super terminal) are incorrect Please confirm the parameter setting of terminal (such as
super terminal): baud rate: 115200, data bit: 8, parity: no, stop bit: 1, flow control: NA, selecting
terminal emulation: VT100.
After the switch is powered on, if system is normal, the startup information will be displayed
on the configuration terminal; If the configuration system is faulty, the configuration terminal
may display no information or hashes.
