Product Overview

Hardware features

Figure 4 shows the front panel of the AC power supplies used in the TurboIron 24X (at the rear of the device).

FIGURE 4 AC power supply front panel

1AC LED

The power supplies are auto-sensing and auto-switching, and provide up to 300 watts of total output power, having a universal input (90 VAC to 264 VAC) and 12 VDC regulated output.

Power supplies can be swapped in or out of the device while the device is running, and without opening the device. You can remove one of the supplies without interrupting operation because the remaining power supply provides enough power for all of the ports.

For power supply hardware specifications, refer to “Power supply specifications” on page 55.

Disconnect the power supply cable from the power source (outlet) before you install it in or remove it from the device. Failure to do this can result in damage to the power supply or the device, or both (the device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source).

The TurboIron 24X power supply is designed exclusively for use with TurboIron 24X. Installing the power supply in a device other than a TurboIron 24X will cause extensive damage to your equipment.

Installing the TurboIron 24X

Installation precautions

Make sure that air flow around the front, sides, and back of the device is not restricted.

Never leave tools inside the device.

Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentally do erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save the running configuration to the startupconfig file.

Changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment.

All fiber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers.

Lifting precautions

Make sure the rack or cabinet housing the device is adequately secured to prevent it from becoming unstable or falling over.

Do not use the handles on the power supply units to lift or carry a Brocade device.

Mount the devices you install in a rack or cabinet as low as possible. Place the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively place lighter devices above.

Power precautions

The following precautions apply to TurboIron 24X devices:

Brocade TurboIron 24X Series Hardware Installation Guide 21 Part Number: 53-1003053-03

Page 22

Installing the TurboIron 24X

Installation precautions

Use a separate branch circuit for each AC power cord, to provide redundancy in case one of the circuits fails.

Ensure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-current protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere (amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this total with the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the input power connectors.

Make sure you insert the power supply right-side up. It is possible to insert the supply upside down, although the supply will not engage with the power backplane cotter pin when plugged upside down. The label of the power supply is on the top when you plug in the power supply right-side up when the power connector is on the left and the fan vent is on the right.

Remove the power cord from a power supply before you install it in or remove it from the device. Otherwise, the power supply or the device could be damaged (the device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source).

The TurboIron 24X power supply is designed exclusively for use with TurboIron 24X devices. Installing the power supply in a device other than the TurboIron 24X will cause extensive damage to your equipment.

Preparing the installation site

Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Replace the battery only with the same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used battery according to the instructions.

Disconnect the power cord from all power sources to completely remove power from the device.

Make sure to choose the appropriate circuit device depending on the number of AC power supplies installed in the device. The minimum current draw for the system is one AC power supply.

Power supplies are hot swappable. However, Brocade recommends that you disconnect the power supply from AC power before installing or removing the supply. The device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source. Otherwise, you could be injured or the power supply or other parts of the device could be damaged.

Make sure that the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the power cord supplied with the device to connect it to the power source.

If the installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with the device, make sure you use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the device.

For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 MB ohm resistor.

Assigning permanent passwords

The procedures in this manual are intended for qualified service personnel.

This chapter provides the details for connecting network devices and checking network connectivity.

By default, the CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Brocade strongly recommends assigning passwords.

You can assign passwords using Brocade Network Advisor if an enable password for a Super User has been configured on the device.

The CLI contains the following access levels:

•

User EXEC—The level you enter when you first start a CLI session. At this level, you can view some system information but you cannot configure system or port parameters.

•

Privileged EXEC—Also called the Enable level, and can be secured by a password. At this level, you can perform tasks such as manage files on the flash module, save the system configuration to flash, and clear caches.

•

CONFIG—This level lets you configure the system IP address, and switching and routing features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already be logged into the Privileged level of the EXEC mode (the Enable level).

You can set the following levels of Enable passwords:

•

Super User - Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for system administrators and is the only password level that allows you to configure passwords.

You must set a Super User password before you can set other types of passwords.

•

Port Configuration - Allows read-and-write access for specific ports but not for global (system-wide) parameters.

•

Read Only - Allows access to the Privileged EXEC mode and CONFIG mode but only with read access.

Follow the steps to set passwords.

NOTE

Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity

Configuring IP addresses

1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter the following command to change to the Privileged level of the EXEC mode.

TurboIron> enable

2. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command.

TurboIron# configure terminal TurboIron(config)#

3. Enter the following command to set the Super User password.

TurboIron# enable super-user-password text

You must set the Super User password before you can set other types of passwords.

4. Enter the following commands to set the port configuration and read-only passwords.

TurboIron(config)# enable port-config-password text TurboIron(config)# enable read-only-password text

If you forget your Super User password, refer to “Recovering from a lost password”.

Syntax: enable super-user-password | read-only-password | port-config-password text

Passwords can be up to 32 characters long.

Recovering from a lost password

By default, the CLI does not require passwords. However, if someone has configured a password for the device but the password has been lost, you can regain Super User access to the device using the following procedure.

Recovery from a lost password requires direct access to the serial port and a system reset.

Follow the steps to recover from a lost password.

1. Start a CLI session over the serial interface to the Brocade device.

2. Reboot the device.

3. While the system is booting, before the initial system prompt appears, enter b to enter the boot monitor mode.

4. Enter no password at the prompt. (You cannot abbreviate this command.)

5. Enter boot system flash primary at the prompt. This command causes the device to bypass the system password check.

6. After the console prompt reappears, assign a new password.

Configuring IP addresses

You must configure at least one IP address using the serial connection to the CLI before you can manage the system using the other management interfaces. In addition, Brocade routers require an IP subnet address for the subnet in which you plan to place them in your network.

Brocade devices support both classical IP network masks (Class A, B, and C subnet masks, and so on) and Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) and network prefix masks as follows:

32 Brocade TurboIron 24X Series Hardware Installation Guide

Part Number: 53-1003053-03

Page 33

NOTE

Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity

Configuring IP addresses

•

To enter a classical network mask, enter the mask in IP address format. For example, enter,

"10.157.22.99 255.255.255.0" for an IP address with a Class-C subnet mask.

•

To enter a prefix number for a network mask, enter a forward slash ( /) and the number of bits in the mask immediately after the IP address. For example, enter,

"10.157.22.99/24" for an IP address that has a network mask with 24 significant ("mask") bits.

By default, the CLI displays network masks in classical IP address format (example: 255.255.255.0). You can change the display to the prefix format. Refer to the

TurboIron Configuration Guide

Devices running Layer 2 software

Follow the steps to configure an IP address on a device running Layer 2 software.

1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.

TurboIron> enable

2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt (for example, TurboIron Switch#), then press Enter. This command erases the factory test configuration if still present.

TurboIron# erase startup-config

3. Access the CONFIG level of the CLI by entering the following command.

TurboIron# configure terminal Privileged EXEC Level TurboIron(config)# Global CONFIG Level

4. Configure the IP address and mask for the switch.

TurboIron(config)# ip address 10.22.3.44 255.255.255.0

5. Set a default gateway address for the switch.

TurboIron(config)# ip default-gateway 10.22.3.1

You do not need to assign a default gateway address for single subnet networks.

Syntax: enable [password]

Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity

Connecting network devices

The 802.3ab standard calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between two 1000Base-T ports. Consequently, a crossover cable may not be required; a straight-through cable may work as well.

Connecting to workstations, servers, or routers

Straight-through UTP cabling is required for direct UTP attachment to workstations, servers, or routers using network interface cards (NICs).

Fiber cabling is required for direct attachment to Gigabit NICs or switches and routers through fiber ports. Refer to “Connecting a network

device to a fiber port”.

Automatic MDI or MDIX detection

All 10/100/1000 Copper ports on the Brocade TurboIron 24X devices support automatic Media Dependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface Crossover (MDIX) detection. This feature is enabled on all Gigabit copper ports by default. For each port, you can disable auto MDI or MDIX, designate the port as an MDI port, or designate the port as an MDIX port.

For more information about this feature and how configure it, refer to the

TurboIron Configuration Guide

Connecting a network device to a fiber port

For direct attachment from the Brocade device to a Gigabit NIC, switch, or router, fiber cabling with an LC connector is required.

To connect the Brocade device to another network device using a fiber port, you must do the following:

•

Install a fiber optic module (SFP transceiver or mini-GBIC for Gigabit Ethernet ports, or SFP+ transceiver for 10-Gigabit Ethernet ports)

•

Cable the fiber optic module

The following sections provide information about performing these tasks.

Installing a fiber optic module

You must install a fiber optic module (SFP or SFP+ transceiver) in each Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet fiber port you want to use.

You can install a new fiber optic module in a port while the Brocade device is powered on and running.

To install a fiber optic module, you will need an ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to a metal surface.

For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.

Follow the steps to install a fiber optic module.

1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by attaching the clip end to a metal surface (such as an equipment rack) to act as ground.

2. Remove the new module from its protective packaging.

3. Gently insert the fiber optic module into the port until the module clicks into place. The module is keyed to prevent incorrect insertion.

Cabling a fiber optic module

Follow the steps to cable a fiber optic module.

1. Remove the protective covering from the fiber-optic port connectors and store the covering for future use.

2. Before cabling a fiber optic module, Brocade strongly recommends that the cable connectors and the port connectors are cleaned thoroughly. For more information, refer to “Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors”.

3. Gently insert the cable connector or connectors (a tab on each connector should face upward) into the port connector or connectors until the tabs lock into place.

4. Observe the link and active LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly. Refer to Table 1.

Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors

To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber optic module (SFP (mini-GBIC) or SFP+) and the fiber cable connectors, Brocade strongly recommends that both connectors are cleaned thoroughly each time you disconnect and reconnect them. In particular, dust can accumulate in the connectors and cause problems such as reducing the optic launch power.

To clean the fiber cable connectors, Brocade recommends that you use the fiber-optic cleaner that shipped with your Brocade device. You can also purchase this type of cleaner from the following Website.

http://www.fisfiber.com

When not using an SFP or SFP+ connector, make sure to keep the protective covering on.

Testing connectivity

After you install the network cables, you can test network connectivity to other devices by pinging those devices. You also can observe the LEDs related to network connection and perform trace routes.

Pinging an IP address

To verify that a TurboIron device can reach another device through the network, enter a command such as the following at any level of the CLI on the TurboIron device.

TurboIron> ping 10.33.4.7

Syntax: ping ip addr | hostname [source ip addr] [count num] [timeout msec] [ttl num] [size byte] [quiet] [numeric] [no-fragment]

[verify] [data 1-to-4 byte hex] [brief]

If you address the ping to the IP broadcast address, the device lists the first four responses to the ping.

Observing LEDs

After you install the network cables, you can observe certain LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly.

Table 1 describes the LEDs related to network connections, the desired state of each LED, possible abnormal states of each LED, and

what to do if an LED indicates an abnormal state.

Off for an extended period.

You can do the following:

•

Verify that the connection to the other network device has been properly made. Also, make certain that the other network device is powered on and operating correctly.

•

Verify that the transmit port on the Brocade device is connected to the receive port on the other network device, and that the receive port on the Brocade device is connected to the transmit port on the other network device. If you are uncertain, remove the two cable connectors from the port connector and reinsert them in the port connector, reversing their order.

•

Dust may have accumulated in the cable connector or port connector. For information about cleaning the connectors, refer to “Cleaning the

fiber-optic connectors”.

•

If the other actions don't resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different cable.

The port is not transmitting or receiving user packets. You can do the following:

•

Check the Link LED to make sure the link is still established with the remote port. If not, take the actions described in the Meaning or Action column for the Link LED.

•

Verify that the port has not been disabled through a configuration change. You can use the CLI. If you have configured an IP address on the device, you also can use Brocade Network Advisor.

If a problem persists after taking these actions, contact TurboIron technical support.

Tracing a route

To determine the path through which a TurboIron device can reach another device, enter a command such as the following at any level of the CLI on the TurboIron device.

TurboIron> traceroute 10.33.4.7

Syntax: traceroute host-ip-addr [maxttl value] [minttl value] [numeric] [timeout value] [source-ip ip addr]

The CLI displays trace route information for each hop as soon as the information is received. Traceroute requests display all responses to a given TTL. In addition, if there are multiple equal-cost routes to the destination, the Brocade device displays up to three responses by default.

Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity

Troubleshooting network connections

•

For the indicated port, verify that both ends of the cabling (at the TurboIron device and the connected device) are snug.

•

Verify that the TurboIron device and the connected device are both powered on and operating correctly.

•

Verify that you have used the correct cable type for the connection:

•

For twisted-pair connections to an end node, use straight-through cabling.

•

For fiber-optic connections, verify that the transmit port on the device is connected to the receive port on the connected device, and that the receive port on the device is connected to the transmit port on the connected device.

•

Verify that the port has not been disabled through a configuration change. You can use the CLI. If you have configured an IP address on the device, you also can use Brocade Network Advisor.

•

For copper ports, you can test the cable using Virtual Cable Testing (VCT). Refer to "Monitoring Hardware Components" in the

TurboIron Configuration Guide

•

If the other procedures don't resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different cable.

Support for digital optical monitoring

You can configure your TurboIron device to monitor optical transceivers in the system, either globally or by specified port. When this feature is enabled, the system monitors the temperature and signal power levels for the optical transceivers in the specified ports. Console messages and syslog messages are sent when optical operating conditions fall below or rise above the SFP+ or SFP manufacturer recommended thresholds. For more information about digital optical monitoring, refer to the

Managing temperature settings

This section describes how to display temperature settings on the TurboIron 24X and how to change the temperature warning levels.

Using the temperature sensor

The TurboIron 24X comes with two built-in temperature sensors; one at the air intake, and the other at the exhaust (refer to <Link>Figure 25 on page 51). The temperature sensor at the air intake monitors the incoming air temperature. The temperature sensor at the air exhaust monitors the air temperature as it exits the device. The temperature sensors cause the device to generate a Syslog message and SNMP trap if the temperature exceeds a specified warning level The software reads the temperature sensors according to the device poll time, which is 60 seconds by default. If the temperature equals or exceeds the warning temperature the software generates a Syslog message and SNMP trap.

You can use the CLI to perform the following:

•

“Displaying the temperature”

•

“Changing the temperature warning level”

•

“Changing the device temperature polling interval”

Displaying the temperature

By default, the software polls the temperature sensor every 60 seconds to get the current temperature. This poll rate is controlled by the device poll time, which also controls how often the software polls other system components.

To display the temperature of a device, enter the show chassis command at any level of the CLI. The following shows an example output.

TurboIron#show chassis Power supply 1 (NA - NA - Regular) present, status ok Power supply 2 not present

Fan 1 ok, speed (auto):
