CAUTION
Chassis
Installation accessory package:
Switches can be pole- or wall-mounted outdoors.
The temperature and humidity in the site must be within the operating temperature and humidity ranges
required for the switches. For the operating temperature and relative humidity ranges required for the switches,
see the S5700 Hardware Description.
Grounding the switch helps protect it from lightning, electromagnetic interference, and electrostatic discharge.
For a PoE-capable switch, grounding the switch also ensures that it can properly supply power to powered
devices (PDs).

2 Safety Guidelines
3 Site Environment
To ensure personal and equipment safety, observe all the safety precautions on the equipment and in this
document. WARNING and CAUTION items do not cover all the safety precautions and are only supplementary
to the safety precautions.
Follow all the safety precautions and instructions provided by Huawei. The safety precautions outlined in this
document are only requirements of Huawei and do not include general safety requirements. Huawei is not
liable for any consequence that results from violation of regulations pertaining to safe operations or safety
codes pertaining to design, production, and equipment use.
This is a class A product. In a domestic environment, this product may cause radio interference. In such an environment, the
user is required to take adequate safety measures.
Class A products are products that have received EMC Class A certification.
During equipment transport and installation, prevent the equipment from colliding with objects like doors, walls, or shelves.
4 Surge Protection
1
Network cables used outdoors must be buried underground or routed through steel pipes to protect the
switches from lightening. Do not route network cables overhead.
If the network ports on the switches are connected to devices on a street pole, no surge protector needs to be
installed. If the network ports are connected to devices on a tower, a network port surge protector must be
installed.
To protect network ports from lightning, use 8-line surge protectors or Huawei certified 4-line surge protectors.
When installing a network port surge protector, connect the IN ports to network devices and connect the OUT
ports to network ports of the switches.
If fiber reinforcing ribs are used, ensure that they are properly grounded to protect the switches from lightning.
To prevent the switch or the interconnected device from being damaged, ground the switch before powering it
on. The ground resistance must be less than 10 ohms.

5 Commissioning the Switch
2
5.1 Using the Web Management System for the First Login
If you do not save the configuration in 10 minutes after entering the initial configuration mode, the system will
exit this mode and restore the factory settings.
If the web pages cannot be displayed normally, your web browser may need an upgrade. For details about the
web browser requirements, see the Web-based Configuration Guide of the switch.
Before You Start
Power on the switch.
Connect your computer to any Ethernet port of the switch using an Ethernet cable.
Hold down the MODE button for 6 seconds or longer. When the PoE mode indicator turns green, the switch
enters the initial configuration mode. In this mode, the IP address of the switch is set to 192.168.1.253/24,
and the admin user level is set to 15 automatically.
Configure an IP address for the computer, which is in the same network segment as the default IP address
of the switch.
Start the web browser on the computer, enter https://192.168.1.253 in the address box, and press Enter to
display the initial login page. Enter the default user name admin and default password [email protected]
and select the language on the login page. Then click GO or press Enter.
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
Step 4
Step 5
Login Procedure
Configure the switch. The web-based configuration page provides basic and optional configuration items.
The basic configuration enables you to log in to the switch using the web management system, and the
optional configuration enables you to log in to the switch using Telnet or STelnet. Only parameters for the
basic configuration are described below. For details about the optional configuration and more information
about the product, see the Configuration Guide for your switch on the Huawei support website.
Step 6
If the switch needs to be commissioned, do so before it is pole- or wall-mounted.

3
On the web management system, you can access Quick Config and then quickly finish the configurations of VLAN
isolation and interconnection by selecting the Switching and Routing options.
Now, you can log in to the switch using the web management system, Telnet, or STelnet to maintain the switch.
5.2 Using the Console Port for the First Login
Power on the switch.
Use a console cable to connect the switch to a PC.
Start the terminal simulation software, create a connection, select a serial port, and set communication
parameters in consistent with the default configuration of the switch's console port, as listed below:
Step 1
Step 2
Step 3
The console cable is not delivered with the switch and needs to be separately purchased if needed.
The display information may differ on different product models.
Install third-party terminal simulation software on the PC by referring to user manual or online help.

Click Apply to save the configuration. When you exit from the initial login page, either of the following
situations will occur depending on the management IP address you configured:
Step 7
If the management IP address is in the same network segment as 192.168.1.253/24, the system jumps to the web login
page directly.
If the management IP address is not in the same network segment as 192.168.1.253/24, you cannot log in to the
switch again using the web management system. You need to configure another IP address for your computer to make
the computer and switch reachable from each other.

WARNING
NOTE
NOTE
Never install or remove switches and power cables when the
power is on.
The external power supply system must be connected to a circuit
breaker (20 A is recommended). For safety purposes, do not use a
switch without a circuit breaker.
The internal 110 V or 220 V AC power supply is used only for
external power conversion. It has no circuit breaker, regulated
voltage circuit, or surge protection. Therefore, do not connect
cables when the power is on.
Pay attention to the position of the +/- or L/N labels when
connecting power cables to power sockets. Connect the live wire
of an AC power cable to the socket marked with an L, the neutral
wire to the socket marked with an N, and PE cables to the PE
cable ground terminals in the maintenance compartment.
Ensure no power cables have metal parts exposed to air.

1. Check whether the installation kit is securely installed and whether all screws are tightly secured.
2. Check whether all cables are reliably connected with correct polarity and no short circuit.
3. Check whether there are any empty screw holes. If there are, install screws in the empty holes.
4. Check whether the waterproof rubber bungs are properly inserted into idle cable outlets.
8 Verifying the Installation
Power on the switch and check indicators on the switch.
If the built-in power supply indicator PWR is steady green, the power module is supplying power.
If the system status indicator SYS blinks green slowly, the system is operating properly.
Check service configurations of the switch, for example, whether the switch is reachable and can be queried on
the NMS.
10 Closing the Maintenance Compartment Door
