Stand-Alone and Stacked Configurations OmniSwitch 6600 Family
Stand-Alone and Stacked Configurations
Stand-Alone
A stand-alone OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch is ideal for small and medium-sized network edge applications, offering 24 10/100 copper ports, 24 100 fiber ports, or 48 10/100 copper Power over Ethernet (PoE)
ports. These switches provide support for enterprise-based devices, such as computer workstations or IP
telephones.
A single OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch also supports two Gigabit Ethernet uplinks for high-bandwidth
connections to a backbone or server.
Stacked Configurations
In addition to working as individual, stand-alone switches, OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can also be
linked together to form a single, high-density virtual chassis known as a stack.
Stacking switches provides scalability by allowing users to quickly and easily expand 10/100 port density.
Twenty-four 10/100 ports are added for each OS6624 or OS6602-24 brought into the stack; twenty-four
10/100 Power over Ethernet (PoE) ports are added for each OS6600-P24 brought into the stack; twentyfour 100 ports are added for each OS6600-U24 brought into the stack; forty-eight 10/100 ports are added
for each OS6648 or OS6602-48.
Up to eight switches can be stacked. OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can be mixed and matched in any
combination within the stack. This provides a virtual chassis with a 10/100 or 100 capacity of up to 384
ports.
As with the stand-alone configuration, a stacked virtual chassis configuration provides Gigabit Ethernet
uplinks to a backbone or server.
Note. For detailed information on stacking OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches into a virtual chassis, refer
to Chapter 4, “Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Family Stacks.”
Note on Terminology. In the user manuals provided with your switch, the terms switch, slot and NI
(Network Interface) refer to individual OmniSwitch 6600 Family units in standalone mode or within a
stacked configuration. The term CMM (Chassis Management Module) refers to stacked OmniSwitch 6600
Family units operating in primary or secondary CMM roles. (An OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch operating in an idle CMM role would normally be referred to as a switch, slot, or, NI.)

software-based safeguards that help prevent the loss of data flow in the unlikely event of a subsystem failure. In addition, some Availability features allow you to maintain or replace hardware components without powering off your switch or interrupting switch operations. Combined, these features provide added
resiliency and help ensure that your switch is consistently available for your day-to-day network operations.
Hardware-related Availability features include:
• Smart Continuous Switching
• Software Rollback
• Hot Swapping
• Hardware Monitoring
Smart Continuous Switching
In stacked configurations, one OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch is designated as the primary “management module” for the stack. Because the stack can be thought of as a virtual chassis, the role of this
primary management switch is to monitor and manage the functions of the stack.
Similar to chassis-based switches such as the OmniSwitch 7700 and Omniswitch 7800, the stack also
allows users to assign an additional switch as a secondary management module. As with the OS7700 and
OS7800, the stack’s secondary switch immediately takes over management functions in the event of a
primary switch failure.
All other switches in the stack are considered idle, and act very much like Ethernet Network Interface
(ENI) modules in OS7700 and OS7800 switches, in that they provide Ethernet ports for 10/100 traffic.
The stack provides support for all idle switches during primary-to-secondary failover. In other words, if
the stack’s primary switch fails or goes offline for any reason, all idle switches will continue data transmission during the secondary switch’s takeover process. This Availability feature is referred to as Smart
Continuous Switching.
Incoming Layer 2 packets will continue to be sent to the appropriate egress port during failover. Spanning
Tree will continue handling BPDUs received on the switch ports, as well as port link up and down states.
The Spanning Tree topology will not be disrupted.
Note. Smart Continuous Switching is designed to maintain data flow only during primary/secondary
switch failover and is not intended to support long-term data flow. If both the primary and secondary
switches in the stack go offline, switch operations (including all 10/100 support) will be disabled.
For more information on primary, secondary, and idle switches, as well as the failover process, refer to
Chapter 4, “Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Family Stacks.”

Availability Features OmniSwitch 6600 Family
Software Rollback
Software rollback (also referred to as image rollback) essentially allows the OmniSwitch 6600 Family
switches (in both standalone and stacked configurations) to return to a prior “last known good” version of
software in the event of a system software problem. The switch controls software rollback through its
resilient directory structure design (i.e., /flash/working and /flash/certified).
For detailed information on the software rollback feature, as well as the switch’s /flash/working and
/flash/certified directories, refer to the “Managing CMM Directory Content” chapter in the OmniSwitch
6600 Family Switch Management Guide.
Hot Swapping
Hot swapping refers to the action of adding, removing, or replacing back up power supplies, as well as
uplink modules and MiniGBICs, without powering off your switch and disrupting other components in the
switch or stack. This feature greatly facilitates hardware upgrades and maintenance and also allows you to
easily replace components in the unlikely event of hardware failure. The following hardware components
can be hot swapped:
• OS6600-BPS Back Up Power Supply
• OS6600-GNI-C2 Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Submodule
• OS6600-GNI-U2 Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Submodule
• MiniGBICs installed in the OS6600-GNI-U2 Gigabit Ethernet Uplink Submodule on OS6624, OS660-
U24, OS6600-P24, and OS6648 switches or the built-in MiniGBIC slots on OS6602-24 and OS660248 switches; MiniGBICs include:
- MiniGBIC-SX
- MiniGBIC-LX
- MiniGBIC-LH-70
• 100 Mbps SFPs installed in the OS6600-U24; SFPs include:
- SFP-100-LC-MM
- SFP-100-LC-SM15
- SFP-100-LC-SM40
- SFP-100-MTRJ-MM
Note. Stacking modules cannot be hot swapped at any time. For information on stacking modules, refer to
Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components.”
For instructions on hot swapping back up power supplies, uplink modules, and MiniGBICs, refer to
Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components.”

OmniSwitch 6600 Family Availability Features
Hardware Monitoring
Automatic Monitoring
Automatic monitoring refers to the switch’s built-in sensors that automatically monitor operations. If an
error is detected (e.g., over-threshold temperature), the switch immediately sends a trap to the user. The
trap is displayed on the console in the form of a text error message. (In the case of an over-threshold
temperature condition, the chassis displays an amber TEMP LED in addition to sending a trap.)
LEDs
LEDs, which provide visual status information, are provided on the chassis front panel. LEDs are used to
indicate conditions such as hardware and software status, temperature errors, link integrity, data flow, etc.
For detailed LED descriptions, refer to Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware
Components.”
User-Driven Monitoring
User-driven hardware monitoring refers to CLI commands that are entered by the user in order to access
the current status of hardware components. The user enters “show” commands that output information to
the console. Monitoring information for chassis components such as the optional back up power supply,
chassis temperature sensor, and chassis fans is provided in Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis
and Hardware Components.” Show commands for all features are described in detail in the OmniSwitch
CLI Reference Guide.

Application Examples
The following application examples show two of the many ways OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can
be used in an enterprise network setting.
Single Office Building with 1000 Users
The following diagram shows converged voice and data applications, with 1000 users, in a single building
enterprise environment. Edge devices consist of a mixture of PCs and IP telephones. In this example, a
single OmniPCX 4400 in the core supports IP voice initiations and terminations. An OmniSwitch 7800
switch provides a port density of 1000 10/100 ports. The stackable OmniSwitch 6600 Family configurations provide redundant and dual connectivity from the edge to the redundant backbone/core, in which the
OmniSwitch 7800 core switches are used.

Airflow Considerations
Be sure that your switch is placed in a well-ventilated, static-free environment. Always allow adequate
clearance at the front, rear, and sides of the switch.
The following diagram shows recommended minimum clearances for adequate chassis airflow and access
to components at the rear of the chassis—e.g., backup power supply and power switch(es).

cables.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis Top View
Note. Never obstruct the air intake vents located at the sides of the chassis. Obstructing these vents can
cause switch failure. Clearance is not required at the top and bottom of the chassis. For detailed chassis
airflow diagrams, refer to “Chassis Airflow” on page 2-58.

Installation Options
There are two ways in which the OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can be installed:
• Tabletop installation
• Rack-mount installation
Installing the Switch on a Tabletop or Bench
OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches can be installed freestanding as tabletop units. Place your switch in a
stable, flat, static-free surface.
Note. OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches must be placed “right side up.” Never attempt to operate a
switch positioned on its side.
To install the switch as a tabletop unit, follow the steps below:
1 Position the chassis on the table or bench where it is to be installed.
2 Be sure that adequate clearance has been provided for chassis airflow and access to the front, back, and
sides of the switch. For recommended clearances, refer to page 2-21. Also, be sure that you have placed
the chassis within reach of all required AC power sources.
3 If you are placing multiple switches in a stacked configuration, carefully stack the remaining switches,
one on top of the other. Up to eight switches may be stacked to form a single virtual chassis. Be sure to
maintain adequate clearance at the front, rear, left, and right side of all switches. Also, be sure that you
have placed all switches in the stack within reach of required AC power sources.
Rack-Mounting the Switch
Refer to the important guidelines below before installing the OmniSwitch chassis in a rack.
• It is recommended that two people install the switch in the rack—one person to hold the chassis and
position it in the rack, and a second person to secure the chassis to the rack using attachment screws
(not supplied).
• Alcatel provides two rack-mount flanges with each OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch. These flanges
support standard 19-inch rack mount installations. These flanges must be attached to the chassis before
the switch can be rack mounted.
Note. If you are installing the switch in a 23-inch wide rack, Alcatel offers optional 23-inch rack-mounting hardware. For more information, contact your Alcatel representative.
• Alcatel does not provide rack-mount screws. Use the screws supplied by the rack vendor.
• To prevent a rack from becoming top heavy, it is recommended that you install heavier equipment at
the bottom of the rack whenever possible.
• If you are installing the switch in a relay rack, be sure to install and secure the rack per the rack manu-
facturer’s specifications.
• Review page 2-21 for important chassis airflow and access recommendations before installing.

To rack-mount the switch, follow the steps below:
1 Align the holes in the provided rack-mount flanges with the four threaded holes in the OmniSwitch
chassis. These threaded holes are located in the left and right sides of the chassis, near the front panel.
2 Attach the flanges to the chassis using the provided Phillips-head screws. Be sure to tighten each of the
screws firmly using a Phillips screwdriver.

7 Once the screws at the bottom of each flange are secure, install the remaining two rack mount screws.
Be sure that all screws are securely tightened.
Note. If you are installing multiple switches in a rack to form a stacked configuration, refer to the “Rack
Mounting Stacked Configurations” section below.
Rack Mounting Stacked Configurations
If you are rack mounting multiple switches in a stacked configuration, be sure to place all switches in
vertically-adjacent rack positions. This will ensure that all required stacking cables will have adequate
length for the installation. For additional instructions on rack mounting a stacked configuration, follow the
steps below:
1 Install the rack mount flanges for all switches that are to be included in the stacked configuration, as
described on page 2-23. Up to eight switches may be stacked to form a single virtual chassis.
2 Place the next switch in the stack directly on top of the previously installed switch.
3 Align the holes in the flanges with the holes in the rack’s vertical posts.
4 Once the holes are aligned, insert a rack mount screw through the bottom hole of each flange. Tighten
both screws until they are secure. Once the screws at the bottom of each flange are secure, install the
remaining two rack mount screws. Be sure that all screws are securely tightened.
5 Repeat steps 1 through 4 above for all remaining switches.

Since the power cord is the power supply’s main disconnect device, it should be plugged into an easily
accessible outlet. In the event that your power cord is lost or damaged, refer to the specifications below.
Specifications
The power cord to be used with 115-Volt configuration is a minimum type SJT (SVT) 18/3, rated at 250
Volts AC, 10 Amps with a maximum length of 15 feet. One end terminates in an IEC 320 attachment plug
and the other end terminates in a NEMA 5-15P plug.
The power cord to be used with 230-Volt configuration is minimum type SJT (SVT) 18/3, rated 250 Volts
AC, 10 Amps with a maximum length of 15 feet. One end terminates in an IEC 320 attachment plug and
the other end terminates as required by the country where it will be installed.

Grounding the Chassis
The switch has two threaded holes for grounding screws located on the back of the chassis. These holes
use 10-32 screws and are approximately one inch apart. These holes are surrounded by a small paint-free
rectangular area, which provides metal-to-metal contact for a ground connection.
Use this connector to supplement the ground provided by the AC power cord. To do so, install a Panduit
Grounding Lug (type LCD8-10A-L) using 8AWG copper conductors to the paint-free rectangular area. Be
sure to use a crimping tool.

Power Supply Redundancy
After a backup power supply is installed, the primary (factory-installed) power supply continues to take on
the full power load for switch operations. Meanwhile, the backup power supply operates in active standby
mode. If the primary power supply fails unexpectedly, the backup power supply automatically takes up the
full power load without disrupting the switch.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-29
Page 54
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Backup Power Supply
Redundant AC Circuit Recommendation
When a backup power supply is installed, it is recommended that the AC source connected to the backup
power supply resides on a separate circuit from the primary power supply. With redundant AC, if a single
circuit fails, the switch’s backup power supply (on a separate circuit) will likely be unaffected and the
switch can continue operating.
Note. The switch must have a backup power supply installed for the redundant AC circuit recommendation to be applicable.
The diagram below shows a simple redundant AC circuit scenario for OS6600 Family switches.

OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Backup Power Supply
Installing a Backup Power Supply
You can add a backup power supply to the chassis at any time without disturbing the switch’s network
functions. You are not required to power down the switch.
Note. This section only applies to OmniSwitch 6624, 6648, and 6600-U24 switches.
Hot Swapping
Hot swapping a backup power supply refers to the action of replacing the unit while the switch is operating. Again, because it is a backup (i.e., redundant component), you are not required to power off the
switch’s primary power source.
To add the optional backup power supply to the chassis, follow the steps below:
Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any component, free yourself of static by wearing a grounding
strap, or by grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage the switch and the backup power
supply.
1 Locate the backup power supply bay. The backup power supply bay is located at the switch’s rear
panel. Refer to page 2-20 for a view of the chassis rear panel.
2 If there is a blank cover panel installed at the backup power supply bay, uninstall it by removing the
two Phillips attachment screws. After the attachment screws have been removed, carefully pry the blank
cover panel out and away from the chassis. Set the cover panel and attachment screws aside.
3 To avoid attempting to install the backup power supply upside down, orient the unit as shown in the
diagram below.

Page 58
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Backup Power Supply
Blank Cover Panel Requirement
If you are not replacing the backup power supply being removed, be sure to install a blank cover panel
(supplied with your switch) over the empty power supply bay. To install a blank cover panel, follow the
steps below.
1 Place the blank cover panel over the empty power supply bay and insert two Phillips screws (also
supplied with the switch) through the panel and into the threaded holes in the chassis.
2 Once the screws are inserted, fasten the panel to the chassis by tightening the screws. Be sure not to
overtighten the screws.
Viewing Primary and Backup Power Supply Status
The switch constantly monitors primary and backup power supply operation. If either power supply unexpectedly shuts down, the switch sends out a trap to the user and the PS1 and/or PS2 LEDs on the chassis
front panel turn amber.
Note. For detailed LED information, including the PS1 and PS2 LEDs, refer to “Status LEDs” on
page 2-18.
To check the number of power supplies currently operating, and the status of each power supply, use the
show power command. For example:
-> show power
Power Supplies in chassis 8
PS Operational Status
-----+------------------PS-1 UP
PS-2 NOT PRESENT
The primary (i.e., factory-installed) power supply is listed as PS-1 in the show power command output.
The backup power supply is listed as PS-2. In the example above, there is no backup power supply
installed in the chassis.
Note. For information on viewing primary and backup power supply status in a stacked configuration,
refer to page 2-35.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-34
Page 59
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Backup Power Supply
Viewing Power Supply Status for Stacked Configurations
When entering the show power command on the primary switch in a stacked configuration, you can either
enter only the show power syntax or you can specify a specific slot number. For more information, refer
to the examples below:
A Slot Number is Specified
If you specify a slot number after the command syntax, power supply information for only the corresponding switch displays. For example:
-> show power 2
Power Supplies in chassis 2

Installing Uplink and Stacking Modules
Before installing uplink or stacking modules, refer to the important guidelines listed below:
Note. These steps only apply to OmniSwitch 6624, 6600-U24, 6600-P24, and 6648 switches and not to
OmniSwitch 6602-24 and 6602-48 switches.
• Stacking modules can only be installed in the far-right module slot. This slot is labeled EXPANSION/
STACKING and contains port positions 27 and 28 (OS6624/6600-U24) or 51 and 52 (OS6648).
• Do not attempt to install stacking modules at the EXPANSION slot at port positions 25 and 26
(OS6624/OS6600-U24) or 49 and 50 (OS6648).
• OS6600-GNI-C2 and OS6600-GNI-U2 uplink modules can be installed in either slot location.
However, if you install a Gigabit Ethernet uplink module in the EXPANSION/STACKING slot, the
switch must be used as a stand-alone unit.
• Port numbers are clearly marked on the OS6624, OS6600-U24, and OS6648 chassis front panels.
• Stacking modules cannot be hot swapped at any time.
Anti-Static Warning. Before handling any component, free yourself of static by wearing a grounding
strap, or by grounding yourself properly. Static discharge can damage the switch and the uplink or stacking module.
1 If there is a blank cover panel installed over the uplink or stacking module slot position, uninstall it by
removing the two Phillips attachment screws. After the attachment screws have been removed, carefully
pry the blank cover panel out and away from the chassis. Set the cover panel and attachment screws aside.
2 Holding the uplink or stacking module by the front panel, carefully slide the circuit board into the card
guide located in the chassis slot.

Page 77
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
Temperature Management
The operating temperature of your switch is an important factor in its overall health. In order to avoid a
temperature-related system failure, your switch must always run at an operating temperature between
0 and 45 degrees Celsius (32 to 113 degrees Fahrenheit).
To avoid chassis over-temperature conditions, follow these important guidelines:
1 Be sure that your switch is installed in a well-ventilated environment. To ensure adequate airflow,
leave at least two inches of clearance at the left and right sides.
2 If your switch chassis is not fully populated with uplink or stacking modules, be sure that blank cover
panels are installed at empty slot positions at all times. Blank cover panels help regulate airflow and thus
regulate the overall operating temperature in the switch. Refer to page 2-59 for more information.
Viewing Chassis Temperature Status
As with power supply status, the switch constantly monitors the chassis temperature. If a temperature error
has occurred, the switch sends out a trap to the user and the TEMP LED on the chassis front panel
displays amber.
Note. For detailed LED information, including the TEMP LED, refer to “Status LEDs” on page 2-18.
To check the current chassis temperature status, use the show temperature command. For example:
-> show temperature
Temperature for chassis 1
Hardware Board Temperature (deg C) = 39,
Hardware Cpu Temperature (deg C) = N/A,
Temperature Upper Threshold Range (deg C) = 30 to 77,
Temperature Upper Threshold (deg C) = 57,
Temperature Range = UNDER THRESHOLD,
Temperature Danger Threshold (deg C) = 77
In the example above, the switch’s current temperature is 39 degrees Celsius. The switch is operating
under the upper temperature threshold, which is 57 degrees Celsius.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-53
Page 78
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
Viewing Temperature Status for Stacked Configurations
When entering the show temperature command on the primary switch in a stacked configuration, you
can either enter only the show temperature syntax or you can specify a specific slot number. For more
information, refer to the examples below:
A Slot Number is Specified
If you specify a slot number after the command syntax, chassis temperature information for only the corresponding switch displays. For example:
-> show temperature 3
Temperature for chassis 3
Hardware Board Temperature (deg C) = 43,
Hardware Cpu Temperature (deg C) = N/A,
Temperature Upper Threshold Range (deg C) = 30 to 77,
Temperature Upper Threshold (deg C) = 57,
Temperature Range = UNDER THRESHOLD,
Temperature Danger Threshold (deg C) = 77
The example above shows chassis temperature information for the switch operating in slot position 3 only.
The current temperature is 43 degrees Celsius. The switch is operating under the upper temperature threshold.
No Slot Number is Specified
If you do not enter a slot number, fan status information for all switches in the stack displays.
For example:
-> show temperature
Temperature for chassis 1
Hardware Board Temperature (deg C) = 40,
Hardware Cpu Temperature (deg C) = N/A,
Temperature Upper Threshold Range (deg C) = 30 to 77,
Temperature Upper Threshold (deg C) = 57,
Temperature Range = UNDER THRESHOLD,
Temperature Danger Threshold (deg C) = 77
Temperature for chassis 2
Hardware Board Temperature (deg C) = 31,
Hardware Cpu Temperature (deg C) = N/A,
Temperature Upper Threshold Range (deg C) = 30 to 77,
Temperature Upper Threshold (deg C) = 57,
Temperature Range = UNDER THRESHOLD,
Temperature Danger Threshold (deg C) = 77
The example above shows chassis temperature information for a stack consisting of two switches. The
current temperature of the switch operating in slot position 1 is 40 degrees Celsius; the current temperature of the switch operating in slot 2 is 31 degrees Celsius. Both switches are operating under the upper
temperature threshold.
More Information on Stacked Configurations. For detailed information on stacked OmniSwitch 6600
Family switches, refer to Chapter 4, “Managing OmniSwitch 6600 Family Stacks.”
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-54
Page 79
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
Temperature Errors
The switch monitors the chassis ambient air temperature at all times via an onboard sensor. If an overtemperature condition occurs, there are two different levels of error severity:
• Warning threshold has been exceeded
• Danger threshold has been exceeded
Warning Threshold
If the temperature exceeds the switch’s user-configurable warning threshold, the switch sends out a trap.
Traps are printed to the console in the form of text error messages. The chassis TEMP LED also displays
amber, indicating an error. (Refer to page 2-18 for status LED locations and descriptions.)
When the warning threshold has been exceeded, switch operations remain active. However, it is recommended that immediate steps be taken to address the over-temperature condition.
Addressing warning threshold temperature conditions may include:
• Checking for a chassis air flow obstruction
• Checking the ambient room temperature
• Checking the fan status using the show fan command. See page 2-56 for more information.
• Verifying that the warning threshold has not been manually set to an otherwise common or acceptable
ambient temperature—for example, 31 degrees Centigrade. (The default warning threshold is 57
degrees Celsius. This value may be configured using the temp-threshold command. The current warning threshold may be viewed using the show temperature command.)
Note. Once the ambient air temperature is reduced to below the warning threshold, the switch’s
TEMP LED automatically resets to green.
Danger Threshold
If the chassis ambient air temperature rises above the switch’s danger threshold of 80 degrees Centigrade,
the switch will power off. The danger threshold is factory-set and cannot be configured by the user.
Addressing danger threshold temperature conditions may include:
• Checking for a chassis air flow obstruction
• Checking the ambient room temperature
• Checking the fan status using the show fan command. See page page 2-56 for more information.
Note. When the danger threshold has been exceeded, the switch’s TEMP LED will not reset from amber
to green until after a system boot.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-55
Page 80
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
Viewing Fan Status
The switch also constantly monitors fan operation. If any of the three fans unexpectedly shuts down, the
switch sends out a trap to the user and the FAN LED on the chassis front panel displays amber.
Note. For detailed LED information, including the FAN LED, refer to “Status LEDs” on page 2-18.
To check the current fan status, use the show fan command. For example:
-> show fan
Chassis Fan Status
-------+---+---------- 1 1 Running
1 2 Running
1 3 Running
In the example above, all three fans are operating normally.
Viewing Fan Status for Stacked Configurations
When entering the show fan command on the primary switch in a stacked configuration, you can either
enter only the show fan syntax or you can specify a specific slot number. For more information, refer to
the examples below:
A Slot Number is Specified
If you specify a slot number after the command syntax, fan status information for only the corresponding
switch displays. For example:
-> show fan
Chassis Fan Status
-------+---+---------- 1 1 Running
1 2 Running
1 3 Running
In the example above, fan status displays only for the switch operating in slot 3.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-56
Page 81
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
No Slot Number is Specified
If you do not enter a slot number, fan status information for all switches in the stack displays.
For example:
-> show fan
Chassis Fan Status

1 2 Running
1 3 Running
2 1 Running
2 2 Running
2 3 Running
3 1 Running
3 2 Running
3 3 Running
The example above shows the fan status for a stack consisting of three switches. All fans for those
switches—operating in slots 1, 2, and 3—are operating normally.
More Information on Stacked Configurations. For detailed information on stacked OmniSwitch 6600

Chassis Airflow
The fans pull air from the air intake vent located at the right-hand side of the chassis. The air is directed
horizontally through the chassis and past the circuit board and uplink and stacking modules (if installed).
Airflow is then exhausted through the fan vents at the left-hand side of the chassis. Refer to the illustrations below for more information.
1. Air Intake. The three
chassis fans pull air from the
main air intake vent located
at the right-hand side of the
chassis.

Uplink and Stacking Submodules
2. Airflow. The air from the
intake vent is directed
through the chassis past the
main circuit board and submodule daughtercards. This
airflow provides required
cooling for these chassis components.
3. Air Exhaust. The airflow
is exhausted through the fan
exhaust vents at the left-hand
side of the chassis.

Important. Maintain a clearance of at least two inches at the left and right sides. Otherwise, airflow may
become restricted. Restricted airflow can cause your switch to overheat; overheating can lead to switch
failure.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-58
Page 83
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Temperature Management
Blank Cover Panels
Blank cover panels are provided with your switch and are used to cover empty uplink and stacking module
slots, as well as empty backup power supply bays (if applicable). These cover panels play an important
role in chassis airflow and temperature management. They also protect the switch’s processor board and
other sensitive internal switch components from physical damage by closing off a chassis that is not fully
populated.
If your switch is not fully populated with submodules and a redundant power supply, and blank cover
panels are not installed over empty slot locations, airflow is adversely affected.
When blank cover panels are missing, air does not take the direct route from the air intake vent, through
the chassis, and then out through the fan exhaust vents. Instead, a portion of the airflow is allowed to be
drawn in through the front and rear of the chassis. As a result, normal airflow is disrupted and an extra
task is placed on the fans to cool the chassis.
Cover panels also provide protection for module processor boards and other sensitive internal switch
components by closing off a chassis that is not fully populated.
Because they regulate airflow and help protect internal chassis components, blank cover panels should
remain installed over empty module slots and power supply bays at all times.
Missing Cover Panels.
Missing cover panels affect
airflow by allowing air to be
drawn in through the front
submodule bays or rear
redundant power supply bay.
As a result, the direct route
from the air intake vent to the
fan exhaust vents is disrupted.

For optimal airflow and
chassis component protection, always install blank
cover panels over empty
slots and power supply bays.

OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Console Port
Console Port
The console port, located on the chassis front panel, provides a serial connection to the switch and is
required when logging into the switch for the first time (refer to the OmniSwitch 6600 Family Getting
Started Guide for more information). By default, this connector (a female DB-9 on OmniSwitch 6624 and
6648 switches and an RJ-45 port on OmniSwitch 6600-U24, 6600-P24, 6602-24, and 6602-48 switches)
provides a DCE console connection.
Serial Connection Default Settings
The factory default settings for the serial connection are as follows:
baud rate 9600
parity none
data bits (word size) 8
stop bits 1
X-ON/X-OFF enabled
Modifying the Serial Connection Settings
If you wish to modify the default serial connection settings (i.e., baud rate, parity, data bits, and stop bits),
refer to the following steps.
Note. You must be connected to the switch via the console port before attempting to change serial connection settings. Otherwise, an error message will display. In addition, if you are changing console port
settings for switches in a stack, console port settings must be identical on all switches. Before configuring
the console port settings for a stack, make sure each switch is operating in either primary or secondary
status (you may be required to disconnect switches within the stack before beginning).
1 Enter modify boot parameters at the CLI prompt. The boot prompt displays:
Boot >
2 To change the baud rate, enter boot serialbaudrate, followed by the desired baud rate value. Options
include 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (default), 19200, 38400, 57600, 76800, and 115200. For example:
Boot > boot serialbaudrate 19200
Note. Setting the console port to speeds above 9600 baud can cause problems with Zmodem uploads.
3 To change the parity value, enter boot serialparity, followed by the desired parity value. Options
include none (default), even, and odd. For example:
Boot > boot serialparity even
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-62
Page 87
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Console Port
4 To change the data bits (i.e., word size) value, enter boot serialwordsize, followed by the number of
data bits. Options include 7 and 8 (default). For example:
Boot > boot serialwordsize 7
5 To change the stop bits value, enter boot serialstopbits, followed by the number of stop bits. Options
include 1 (default) and 2. For example:
Boot > boot serialstopbits 2
6 Verify your current changes by entering show at the boot prompt:
Boot > show
Edit buffer contents:
Serial (console) baud : 19200
Serial (console) parity : even
Serial (console) stopbits : 2
Serial (console) wordsize : 7
(additional table output not shown)
7 You can save your changes to the boot.params file by entering commit file at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit file
Note. When the commit file command is used, changes will not be enabled until after the next switch
reboot.
8 You can also save your changes in real time to the switch’s running memory by entering commit
system at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit system
Caution. There are two important things to consider when using the commit system command to save
serial connection changes:
• Output to the terminal may become illegible due to incompatible serial connection settings between the
switch and the terminal emulation software.
• If you use the commit system command only, changes will not be saved to the switch’s boot.params
file and will be lost if the switch is rebooted. To save changes to the boot.params file, refer to step 7.
9 Return to the CLI prompt by entering exit at the boot prompt.

OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Console Port
Configuring X-ON/X-OFF Protocol
By default, X-ON/X-OFF protocol is enabled on the console port. To enable and disable the X-ON/X-OFF
protocol on a console port that you are logged into use the session xon-xoff command by entering session
xon-xoff followed by either enable or disable.
For example, to disable X-ON/X-OFF on a console port enter:
-> session xon-xoff disable
Note. To enable or disable the X-ON/X-OFF protocol on secondary or idle switches in a stack you must
log into those switches and then execute the session xon-xoff command.

OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Managing MAC Addresses on the Switch
Managing MAC Addresses on the Switch
Your OmniSwitch 6600 Family switch is shipped with thirty-two factory-installed MAC addresses. These
MAC addresses, which are stored on an EEPROM card in the chassis, are used by the switch as unique
identifiers for the following functions:
• Base chassis MAC address
• 802.1X authentication
• VLAN router ports
Similar to IP addresses, MAC addresses are assigned by the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority (IANA)
and distributed to users in sequential blocks. A sequential block of MAC addresses is referred to as a
MAC address range.
The switch’s EEPROM contains two factory-installed MAC address ranges:
MAC Range 1 Reserved for the first two MAC addresses in the factory installed range of 32
MAC addresses. The first—or start—MAC address in this range is always
allocated as the base chassis MAC address. The second MAC address is
allocated for 802.1X authentication.
MAC Range 3 Contains MAC addresses used for each port in the system.
MAC Range Guidelines
• You cannot edit or delete MAC range 1 or MAC range 3 at any time.
• The factory-installed 32 MAC addresses are sufficient for most network configurations. However, if
you require additional MAC addresses for your network, you may purchase additional MAC addresses
from Alcatel. Contact your Alcatel representative for more information.
OmniSwitch 6600 Family MAC Range Specifications
Number of Factory-installed MAC Ranges 2 (MAC Range 1; MAC Range 3)
Number of MAC Addresses in Default Range 1 2
Number of MAC Addresses in Default Range 3 30
Maximum MAC Ranges on Switch 2 (MAC Range 1; MAC Range 3)
Base chassis MAC address Unique to each switch. The base
chassis MAC address is always the
first MAC address listed in the
switch’s default MAC range 1.
Supported MAC Router Mode Single
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Hardware Users Guide September 2006 page 2-71
Page 96
OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components Managing MAC Addresses on the Switch
Base Chassis MAC Address as Unique Identifier
The switch chassis requires a unique identifier in order to be recognized by other devices in the network.
The base chassis MAC address, which is automatically allocated by the switch, serves as this identifier.
The base chassis MAC address is always the start MAC address listed in the switch’s default
MAC range 1.
Viewing the Base Chassis MAC Address
To display the switch’s base chassis MAC address, use the show mac-range command to display the
default MAC range 1. Be sure to specify the MAC range number ( 1 ), as shown below:
-> show mac-range 1
The following information displays:
Mac Local/
Range Row Status Global Start Mac Addr End Mac Addr
-----+----------------+--------+------------------+-----------------01 ACTIVE GLOBAL 00:d0:95:6a:79:6e 00:d0:95:6a:79:8d
Because MAC address 00:d0:95:6a:79:6e is the first address in default MAC range 1, it is automatically
allocated as the base chassis MAC address and, therefore, serves as a unique identifier for the switch as a
whole.
Determining Current MAC Address Allocation on the Switch
To quickly view all allocated MAC addresses, use the show mac-range alloc command. For example:
-> show mac-range
Mac Local/
Range Row Status Global Start Mac Addr End Mac Addr
-----+----------------+--------+------------------+-----------------01 ACTIVE GLOBAL 00:d0:95:12:db:60 00:d0:95:12:db:61
03 ACTIVE GLOBAL 00:d0:95:12:db:62 00:d0:95:12:db:7d
Base Chassis MAC Address in Stacked Configurations
In stacked configurations of two or more OmniSwitch 6600 Family switches, the base MAC address for
the stack (also referred to as the virtual chassis) is always provided by the primary switch.
If a failover occurs and another switch assumes the primary role, the stack’s base MAC address changes to
the address provided by the new primary switch.
For detailed information on stacked configurations, refer to Chapter 4, “Managing OmniSwitch 6600
Family Stacks.”

3 Installing and Managing
Power over Ethernet (PoE)
Power over Ethernet (PoE) is supported on OmniSwitch 6600-P24 switches and provides inline power
directly from the switch’s Ethernet ports. Powered Devices (PDs) such as IP phones, wireless LAN
stations, Ethernet hubs, and other access points can be plugged directly into the Ethernet ports. From these
RJ-45 ports the devices receive both electrical power and data flow.
Because the feature reduces devices’ dependence on conventional power sources, PoE eliminates many
restrictions that traditional electrical considerations have imposed on networks.
In a PoE configuration, power source equipment (PSE) detects the presence of a PD and provides an electrical current that is conducted along the data cable. The PD operates using the power received via the
Ethernet data cable; no connection to an additional power source (e.g., an AC wall socket) is required.
Note on Terminology. There are several general terms used to describe this feature. The terms Power
over Ethernet (PoE), Power over LAN (PoL), Power on LAN (PoL), and Inline Power are synonymous
terms used to describe the powering of attached devices via Ethernet ports. For consistency, this chapter
and the CLI Command Reference Guide refer to the feature as Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Additional terms, such as Powered Device (PD) and Power Source Equipment (PSE) are terms that are not
synonymous with PoE, but are directly related to the feature:
• PD refers to any attached device that uses a PoE data cable as its only source of power. Examples
include access points such as IP telephones, Ethernet hubs, wireless LAN stations, etc.
• PSE refers to power sourcing equipment which provides power to a single link section. PSE main func-
tions include searching the PD, optionally classifying the PD, supplying power to the link section only
if the PD is detected, monitoring the power on the link section, and scaling power back to detect level
when power is no longer requested or required.
Because OmniSwitch 6600-P24 switches fully support 10/100 Ethernet connectivity, you may also attach
non-PD equipment—such as computer workstations, printers, servers, etc.—to the PoE ports. See
Chapter 2, “OmniSwitch 6600 Family Chassis and Hardware Components,” for more information on the
OmniSwitch 6600-P24 chassis.
Important. Alcatel recommends that PoE-enabled switches with attached IP telephones should have operational power supply redundancy at all times for 911 emergency requirements. In addition, both the
OS6600-P24 and the OS6600-BPS-P should be plugged into an Uninterruptible Power Source (UPS).
