Chapter 1

Installing the ARN

This chapter describes how to install the BayStack ARN router, as follows:

Topic Page

Preparing to install the ARN 1-2 Installing the ARN 1-5 Understanding the ARN module locat ions 1-9 Connecting comm unications cables 1-10 Connecting a management console 1-25 Connecting back-panel modem interfaces 1-29 Connecting the power cables 1-32 Installing the flash memory card 1-33 Where to go next 1-34

114200-D Rev 00

Note:

The installation instructions in this chapter assume that wiring is already installed on the premises using common cable system practices. Your installation procedure may differ slightly, depending on your cable system.

1-1

Installing and Operating BayStack ARN Routers

Preparing to Install the ARN

Verify the following before beginning the installation, as explained in the sections that follow:

• Your shipment is complete and undamaged.

• You have the proper equipment and tools.

• Your installation site meets physical, electrical, and environmental

requirements.

• You have the communications devices and the cabling that you need to attach

to the ARN.

Verifying Shipment Contents

You should inspect all items for shipping damage. If you detect any damage, do not install the ARN. Call the Bay Networks Technical Solutions Center in your area, as described in “How to Get Help.”

In addition to the ARN and this guide, your shipping container should contain several other hardware accessory items. Verify that the items in the shipping container match those on the packing list affixed to the shipping container.

1-2

Refer to the fo llowing checklist when verifying the contents of the shipping container:

__ One power cable for connecting the ARN to a wall outlet. __ One console/modem cable kit (Order No. 110310 ) for connect ing an optional

local console or modem. The console/modem cable kit contains one 15-foot AT standard molded serial cable (with DB-9 receptacle to DB-25 plug connectors) and one null modem crossover adapter (with DB-25 to DB-25 receptacle connectors).

__ Two flange brackets, ei ght #6 Phi ll i ps sc rews, four #10 cagenut screws and

washers, and four cage nuts for rack-mounting the ARN.

___Four rubber feet for table-top operation.

Additional Equipment

To install the ARN, you may need some additional items that are not part of the ARN accessory package. Before installing the ARN hardware, ensure that you obtain all the cables, tools, and other equipment that you need.

Cables

Unless they were specifically ordered, the cables necessary for your network configuration are not part of the ARN accessory package. If you do not have the proper cables, contact your network administrator or see the Cable Guide.

Management Console

You can attach an optional computer terminal or PC as a console to the ARN to monitor the re sults o f star tup diag nosti cs and p erform manual b oot conf igu ratio ns. Or you can attach any AT-compatible modem to allow remote dial-in access to diagnostics and configuration.

Note:

T o use the Netboot, Directed Netboot, or Local Boot option s for booting and configuring the ARN (see Chapter 3, “Operating the ARN”), you must have a local terminal connected the first time the ARN powers up.

1-4

Mounting Hardware

To rack-mount the ARN, you need a Phillips screwdriver and an electronic enclosure rack that meets the following specifications:

• Heavy-duty steel construction

• Electronic Industries Association (EIA) standard hole-spacing

• Width of 19 in. (48.26 cm) and depth of 24 in. (60.96 cm) If the rack does not have threaded rail holes, you must use cage nuts (see

Figure 1-1

) to use with the cagenut screws.

114200-D Rev 00

Verifying Site Requirements

The installation site must provide a certain amount of free space around the ARN to dissipate heat, as de tailed in Table 1-1

Table 1-1. Installation Space Requirements

Width Depth (minimum) Depth (for servicing)

22.5 in. (57.2 cm) 15 in. (38.1 cm) 25 in. (63.5 cm)

In addition, the installation site must meet the electri cal and environmental specifications listed in Appendix C.

Installing the ARN

Caution:

You must use grounded electrical power outlets with the ARN.

Installing the ARN

Once you are ready to install the ARN in its final location, you have two options:

• Position the ARN on a flat, sturdy, horizontal surface.

• Mount the ARN in an electronic enclosure rack.

Positioning the ARN on a Flat Surface

When positioning the ARN on a flat surface, make sure that the surface is:

• Large enough for the ARN to operate properly (Table 1-1)

• Sturdy enough to support the combined weight of the ARN and any cables

that you connect

You should place the self-adhesive, rubber feet (shipped with the AR N) on the bottom of the ARN chassis. These feet not only protect the surface on which you position the ARN, they provide added friction against the weight of any cables that you attach to the device.

114200-D Rev 00

1-5

Installing and Operating BayStack ARN Routers

Rack-Mounting the ARN

For this procedure, you need:

• Two flange brackets and eight #6 Phillips screws (shipped with the ARN)

• A Phillips screwdriver

• An electronic enclosure rack . If the rack does no t hav e threade d rail holes, you

must attach the four cage nuts shipped with the ARN.

• Four #10 cagenut screws and washers (shipped with the ARN) To rack-mount the ARN:

Determine how you want the ARN to fit in the equipment rack.

Multiple holes in the flange brackets provide several options for rack-mounting the ARN. How you attach the flange brackets determines how far the router extends outside or remains inside the rack. Figure 1-2 three of the most common locations for the brackets.

Attach a flange bracket to each side of the ARN.

Align four bracket holes with four holes in the ARN enclosure

(Figure 1-2)

Insert a #6 Phillips screw through each hole and into the ARN.
