Juniper QFX3600 User manual

QFX3600 Device Quick Start
See the complete QFX Series documentation at http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/ .
To install and configure a Juniper Networks QFX3600 device, you need:
zElectrostatic discharge (ESD) grounding strap (provided).
zOne pair of rear installation blades (part number 540-038598). These installation
blades support the rear of the chassis, and must be installed (provided).
zOne pair of mounting brackets (part number 540-038596) (provided).
zSix M4 x 5-mm screws. These screws attach the mounting brackets to the chassis
(provided).
zPhillips (+), number 1 screwdriver for the mounting bracket screws (not provided).
zEight screws to secure the chassis and installation blades to the rack (not provided).
zScrewdriver appropriate for your rack mounting screws (not provided).
zTwo power cords with plugs appropriate for your geographical location (provided).
zRJ-45 cable and RJ-45 to DB-9 serial port adapter (provided).
zManagement host, such as a PC laptop, with a serial port (not provided).
z(Optional) Grounding cable attached to lug (provided) and two M5 screws (provided)
with integrated washers.
NOTE: These instructions describe installing the chassis in a four-post rack or cabinet
and connecting AC power to the device. For other installation options, see the
QFX3600 device documentation at http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/ .
Part 1: Attach the Installation Blades to the Rack
NOTE: If you are mounting multiple units in the rack, mount the heaviest unit at the
bottom and mount the others from bottom to top in order of decreasing weight.
1. Place the rack in its permanent location, allowing adequate clearance for airflow and
maintenance, and secure it to the building structure.
2. With four mounting screws—and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires
them—attach the installation blades to the rear of the rack at the point where you
want to mount the device. Tighten the screws. The blades help support the rear of the
chassis.
Part 2: Attach the Mounting Brackets to the Chassis
NOTE: The QFX3600 device can be ordered with FRU-side-to-port-side airflow or
port-side-to-FRU-side airflow. The mounting brackets can be attached to the chassis so
that the mounting ears are on the port (front) side or the FRU (rear) side.
1. Attach the ESD grounding strap to your bare wrist and to a site ESD point. Place the
device on a flat, stable surface.
2. Align the mounting brackets along the front or rear of the side panels of the device
chassis depending on how you want to mount the device. For example, if you want to
front-mount the device, align the brackets along the front of the side panel as shown
in the figure.
3. Align the holes in the mounting brackets with holes on the side panels of the device
chassis.
4. Insert the provided M4 x 5-mm screws into the aligned holes. Tighten the screws.
Part 3: Install the Chassis in the Rack
1. Grasp both sides of the device, lift it, and position it in the rack so that the mounting
bracket catches and slides onto the installation blade. If someone is assisting you,
have one person stand at the rear of the rack where the installation blades are
installed, to help guide the device onto the installation blades.
2. Align the holes in the front brackets on the chassis with the holes in the rack. Ensure
that the chassis is level.
3. With four mounting screws—and cage nuts and washers if your rack requires
them—secure the front of the device to the rack. Tighten the screws.
4. Ensure that the device chassis is level by verifying that all the screws on the front of
the rack are aligned with the screws at the back of the rack.
Part 4: Connect the Device to Earth Ground
1. Connect one end of the grounding cable to a proper earth ground, as defined by local
electrical codes.
2. Place the grounding lug over the protective earthing terminal on the left rear of the
chassis, and secure the lug with the provided M5 screws.
Part 5: Connect Power to the Device
1. Insert the coupler end of the power cord into the AC power cord inlet on the AC
power supply faceplate.
2. Push the power cord retainer down onto the power cord.
3. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the OFF (O) position.
NOTE: The device powers on as soon as power is provided to the power supply. There is
no power switch on a QFX3600 device.
4. Insert the power cord plug into an AC power source outlet.
5. If the AC power source outlet has a power switch, set it to the ON (|) position.
6. Repeat these steps for the second AC power supply, if one is installed.
Part 6: Next Steps
NOTE: The initial connection and configuration of your QFX3600 device as a Node
device with your QFabric system are beyond the scope of this quick start. For detailed
information about using the device as a Node device with your QFabric system, see the
deployment guide for your QFabric system at http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/.

If you are using the QFX3600 device as a standalone switch, you must perform the initial
configuration of the switch through the console port. Before you begin, set the following
parameter values in the console server or PC:
zBaud Rate—9600
zFlow Control—None
zData—8
zParity—None
zStop Bits—1
zDCD State—Disregard
To connect and configure the switch from the console:
1. Connect the console port to a laptop or PC using the provided RJ-45 cable and RJ-45
to DB-9 serial port adapter. The console (CON) port is located on the front panel of
the switch.
2. Log in as root. There is no password. If the software booted before you connected
to the console port, you might need to press the Enter key for the prompt to appear.
login: root
3. Start the command-line interface (CLI).
root@% cli
4. Enter configuration mode.
root> configure
5. Add a password to the root administration user account.

NOTE: The management ports are on the front panel of the QFX3600 switch. They are
labeled C0, C1, C0S, and C1S on the front panel. The first set of ports (C0 and C1) are
Gigabit Ethernet RJ-45 ports, the second set of ports (C0S and C1S) are 1-Gbps SFP
ports. You can use either the RJ-45 or SFP management ports, but not both. If you insert
an SFP in C0S or C1S the corresponding RJ-45 port is disabled.
9. (Optional) Configure the static routes to remote prefixes with access to the
management port.

Safety Warnings Summary
This is a summary of safety warnings. For a complete list of warnings, including
translations, see the QFX3600 device documentation at
http://www.juniper.net/techpubs/ .
WARNING: Failure to observe these safety warnings can result in personal injury
or death.
zPermit only trained and qualified personnel to install or replace device components.
zPerform only the procedures described in this quick start and the QFX3600 device
documentation. Other services must be performed only by authorized service
personnel.
zBefore installing the device, read the planning instructions in the QFX3600 device
documentation to make sure that the site meets power, environmental, and clearance
requirements for the device.
zBefore connecting the device to a power source, read the installation instructions in the
QFX3600 device documentation.
zThe QFX3600 device weighs approximately 20.5 lb (9.3 kg). To prevent injury, keep
your back straight and lift with your legs, not your back.
zIf the rack or cabinet has stabilizing devices, install them in the rack before mounting or
servicing the device in the rack or cabinet.
zBefore installing or after removing an electrical component, always place it
component-side up on a flat antistatic mat or in an antistatic bag.
zDo not work on the device or connect or disconnect cables during electrical storms.
zBefore working on equipment that is connected to power lines, remove jewelry,
including rings, necklaces, and watches. Metal objects heat up when connected to
power and ground and can cause serious burns or become welded to the terminals.
