Step 1
Rack Mount iBypass 40G Switch
Install the iBypass 40G Switch into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. The switch is
designed to occupy one rack unit. Do the following to install the iBypass 40G Switch
into an equipment rack:
1. Remove the Ear Extenders and screws from the shipping bag.
2. Attach the Long Ear Extender to the switch if you are only mounting one switch
or attach the Short Ear Extender between two switches if you are mounting two
switches. See Figure 3.
3. Slide the switches in place in the rack.
4. Fasten the switches in place at the front panel ears using the Phillips screws.
5. Make sure the rack is properly electrically grounded.
Grounding
Ground the chassis to the rack by connecting a 14 AWG minimum ground wire with a
#8 ring lug to the ground connection on the rear of the chassis. Terminate the other
end of the ground wire to the rack ground bus bar.

Step 2
Connect Power
Ensure the iBypass 40G Switch is grounded before connecting power. Do the
following to connect and apply power to the iBypass 40G Switch:
1. Plug one of the supplied power cords to a power connector located at the rear
of the chassis. Plug the other end to a power source. See Figure 4.
2. For redundancy, plug the other power cord to the iBypass 40G. Plug the other
end to a source independent from the rst power source.
The Power LEDs on the front illuminate.
Switch Default Settings
The iBypass 40G Switch ships with the following default system settings:
IP Address: 10.60.4.180 Threshold Port A: 80%
Netmask: 255.0.0.0 Threshold Port B: 80%

Step 3
Connect Options
You have two ways of logging in to the iBypass 40G switch.
Option 1 - Connect PC to Management Port
1. Connect a PC whose IP address is on the same subnet as the iBypass switch.
The default address on the switch is:
IP Address: 10.60.4.180 Mask - 255.0.0.0 Gateway - 10.0.0.1
2. Connect a Cat 5e cable from your PC’s Ethernet port to the iBypass
Management port. See Figure 5.
3. Open a terminal window on the PC and ping 10.60.4.180 to conrm the
connection.
4. After you have conrmed that you have a connection, you can log in via SSH at
the terminal prompt, or enter the default address into the browser URL. Go to
the Assign IP in Web UI section if you want to log in through the Web UI. Go
to the next step if you want to log in to the CLI.
5. At the terminal window prompt, type ssh [email protected]. Enter
password netoptics. The Net Optics prompt appears.
6. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and netoptics for the password.
7. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following
command at the prompt:
modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd>
where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and

11
<re-enter_passwd> is your password entered again.
8. Go to Congure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP
address.
For more information about using the iBypass 40G Switch CLI, enter help to display
command information or see the iBypass 40G Switch User Guide for more details.

Step 3 (cont.)
Option 2 - Connect PC to the Console Port
1. Connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the iBypass 40G Switch
Console port with the supplied DB9-RJ45 console cable. See Figure 6.
2. Launch the terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal or minicom,
and set the communication parameters to 115,200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity,
1 stop bit, and no ow control.
3. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and netoptics for the password.
4. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following
command at the prompt:
modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd>
where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and
<re-enter_passwd> is your password entered again.
5. Go to Congure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP
address.
For more information about using the iBypass 40G Switch CLI, enter help to display
command information or see the iBypass 40G Switch User Guide for more details.

Step 4
Congure the IP
The iBypass 40G switch ships with a default address. You can decide to use the
default address, assign a static IPv4 or IPv6 IP address or use DHCP to assign an
address.
To congure the system with a static IPv4 or IPv6 address, do the following:
1. At the CLI prompt, type the following to set the address mode to static:
set network mode static
2. Type the following to set the IPv4 address:
set network ipaddress <d.d.d.d> where <d.d.d.d> is the IPv4 address
or
Type the following to set the IPv6 address:
set network ipaddress 6 <x:x:x:x> where <x:x:x:x> is the IPv6 address.
set network type 6 if you want the device to use the IPv6 address.
3. Type the following to set the network mask:
set network netmask <m.m.m.m> where <m.m.m.m> is the netmask.
4. Type the following to set the gateway:
set network gateway <g.g.g.g> where <g.g.g.g> is the gateway address.
5. Type reboot, to reboot the system. This is required for the new address to take
effect. The new IP address will display in the LCD.

15
After setting the IP address, connect the Management port to the network, so
that you can access the device remotely over SSH or launch the Web UI with
the new IP address.
To congure the system to use a DHCP address, do the following:
1. At the CLI prompt, type the following to set the address mode:
set network mode dhcp
2. At the next prompt, type the following to reboot the device:
reboot
3. After reboot, log into the iBypass via the PC connected to the Console port.
4. At the CLI prompt, enter show network. The screen will display the address
that was assigned to the switch.

16
Assign IP in Web UI
If you want to change the IP address through the Web UI, do the following:
1. Open a browser on a PC connected to the iBypass switch or on the same
subnet, and enter the default IP address in the URL, https://10.60.4.180.
2. At the iBypass log in banner page, enter Username admin and Password
netoptics. The Home page displays. See Figure 7.
3. At the Home page, click on the Conguration tab. The Conguration page
displays. See Figure 8.
4. Select IP version, select Static or DHCP.
5. If you select Static, enter the IP address, netmask, and gateway.
6. Click the Apply button.
7. Click Reboot.
8. After the iBypass has rebooted, enter the new IP address at the URL.
9. Re-log in. The iBypass home page displays.

Step 5
Connect to the Network
The iBypass 40G Switch Network ports require 40G MTP cables.
Network port B to
a network switch
or router
Network port A to a
network switch or
router
Figure 10 - MTP Cables to the Network
1. Connect Network Port A to a network device with a 40G MTP cable.
2. Connect Network Port B to another network device using another 40G MTP
cable.
3. Verify that the Network ports are cabled in-line between two network devices.
4. Verify the link status LED illuminates for each connected port.
5. Verify the ACT LED ashes when there is trafc on the network link.

19
Step 6
Connect Monitoring Tools
Do the following to connect monitoring tools to the iBypass 40G Switch:
Insert transceiver to
Monitor port 1
Insert transceiver to
Monitor port 2
Figure 11 - QSFP Connections to the Monitoring Tools
1. Insert QSFP+ transceivers into Monitor port 1 and Monitor port 2.
2. Connect a cable to Monitor port 1 transceiver and connect the other end to a
monitoring tool.
3. (Optional) Connect a cable to Monitor port 2 transceiver and connect the other
end to another monitoring tool.
4. Verify that the monitoring tools are receiving trafc from the iBypass 40G
Switch.
