General Safety Standards

vEdge 100 Router

Caution

Before removing or installing router modules and components, ensure that the router chassis is electrically connected to ground. Ensure that you attach an ESD grounding strap to an ESD point and place the other end of the strap around your bare wrist making good skin contact. Failure to use an ESD grounding strap could result in damage to the router.

Some router components are hot-swappable and hot-insertable. You can remove and replace them without powering off or disconnecting power to the router. Do not, however, install the router or any of its component if they appear to be damaged.

• Install your vEdge router in compliance with the following local, national, and international electrical codes:

• United States—National Fire Protection Association (NFPA 70), United States National Electrical Code.

• Other countries—International Electromechanical Commission (IEC) 60364, Part 1 through Part

7.

• Evaluated to the TN power system.

• Canada—Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1, CSA C22.1.

• Permit only trained and qualified personnel to install or replace switch components.

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room in which you are working. In case of an electrical accident, quickly turn off the power.

• Disconnect power before installing or removing the router.

• If an electrical accident occurs, use caution and immediately turn off power to the router.

• Make sure that grounding surfaces are thoroughly cleaned and well-finished before grounding connections are made.

• Do not work alone if hazardous conditions exist.

• Always check that power is disconnected from a circuit. Never assume that it is disconnected.

• Carefully inspect your work area for possible hazards, such as moist floors, worn-out power cords, ungrounded power extension cords, and missing safety grounds.

• Operate the device within marked electrical ratings and product usage instructions.

• To ensure that the router and the FRUs function safely and correctly, use the specified cables and connectors, and make certain they are in good condition.

Site Preparation Guidelines

Efficient operation of routers requires proper site planning and proper layout of your equipment rack or wiring closet:

• Ensure that the area around the router is kept free of dust and conductive material.

• Follow appropriate airflow guidelines so that the cooling system functions normally.

• Follow ESD prevention procedures to avoid any damage to the router.

• Install the router in an enclosed, secure area allowing only authorized personnel to access the device.

Environmental Requirements

Install the vEdge routers in a dry, clean, temperature-controlled, and well-ventilated environment:

• Maintain ambient airflow for the router to operate normally. The ambient intake air temperature should be in the range 0°C to 40°C (32°F to 104°F). If the airflow is blocked or if the air intake is too warm, the router can get overheated.

Site Preparation Guidelines

• Avoid temperature extremes. Ensure that the router is operating at an ambient temperature not more that 40°C (104°F) at sea level. For higher altitudes, a derating of 1.50°C per 1,000 feet applies.

• High humidity conditions can cause moisture to penetrate into the chassis. The devices support 10% to 85% humidity levels, non-condensing.

Rack Requirements

For the Cisco vEdge router models that support the rack mount option, you can mount the routers in a two-post or a four-post rack. Table 1 provides the rack requirements for the routers.

Table 5:

GuidelinesRack Requirement

Rack type

Use a two-post or a four-post rack that meets the size requirements for the router, provides bracket holes or hole patterns spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm) increments, and is strong enough to support the weight of the router.

Mounting brackets

Ensure that the holes in the mounting brackets are spaced at 1 U (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm). This allows you to mount the router in any location in the rack.

Rack size

It is recommended that the rack comply with the size and strength standards of a 19-inch rack as defined in Cabinets, Racks, Panels, and Associated Equipment (document number EIA-310–D), published by the Electronics Industry Association http://www.eia.org . Ensure that the rack rails are spaced widely enough to accommodate the external dimensions of the chassis and that the outer edges of the front mount brackets extend the width of the chassis to 19 in. (48.2 cm). You must also ensure that the spacing of rails and adjacent racks allows for the proper clearance around the router and rack.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Now that you have installed and connected the vEdge 100 router, you can monitor and troubleshoot the various LEDs and system alarms on the router.

Alarm Severity Levels

The system alarms on the vEdge 100 router have two types of severity levels:

• Major (red)—Indicates a critical situation on the router resulting from one of two conditions:

Hardware Installation Guide for vEdge Routers

20

vEdge 100 Router

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

One or more hardware components on the router has failed.•

• One or more hardware components on the router has exceeded the temperature threshold.

A major alarm condition requires immediate attention. If a temperature related major alarm persists for more than five minutes, the router will shut down.

• Minor (yellow)—Indicates a warning on the router that, if left unattended, might result in an interruption in router operation or degradation in router performance. A yellow alarm condition requires further monitoring and/or maintenance.

Hardware Alarms

Hardware alarms on the vEdge 100 router are predefined and are triggered by a physical condition on the router such as a power supply failure, excessive component temperature, or fan failure. The vEdge 100 router triggers the following types of hardware alarms:

• Main board temperature alarm—The main board of the router has one temperature sensing point (board sensor 0). If the temperature of the sensor location crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

• CPU temperature alarm—If the temperature of the system CPU crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

• Fan alarm—The router has a fixed built-in fan for system cooling which runs at a fixed speed. If the fan stops running, the system triggers an alarm. Also if the fan starts to run below a predefined RPM threshold, the system triggers an alarm.

Table 1 lists the yellow and red alarm threshold for the temperature sensing points in the system—one board sensor on the board and one CPU junction temperature sensor. The lower threshold value (Bad Fan) applies if a fan failure condition is also detected; otherwise the higher threshold value applies (normal).

Restore a vEdge Router

This article explains how to revert the configuration for a vEdge router to the factory-default values. It also explains how to do a soft and hard reset of the router.

Reverting to the vEdge Router Factory-Default Configuration

After you set up and start the virtual machines (VMs) for the vEdge Cloud routers and set up and start the hardware vEdge routers in your overlay network, they come up with a factory-default configuration . When you make and commit changes to the default configuration, a new configuration file is created. This new configuration file then becomes the active configuration.

If desired, you can revert to the default factory configuration:

vEdge# request software reset

Reset the Router

You can reset the vEdge router by doing either a hard press or a soft press. To perform either type of press, locate the Reset button on the front panel of the router. The Reset button is recessed to avoid accidentally pressing it while the router is operational. To press the Reset button, use a sharp narrow tool.

Perform a Long Press Reset

A long press reset of the vEdge router erases passwords, keys, and most other configuration parameters, restoring the router to its factory-default configuration.

To perform a long press reset, press the Reset button for more than 10 seconds. After you release the Reset button, the router will reboot and resume normal operation.

Perform a Short Press Reset

A short press reset of the Edge router is equivalent to a graceful software reboot and is the same as entering the reboot command at the CLI prompt.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

Now that you have installed and connected the vEdge 100b router, you can monitor and troubleshoot the various LEDs and system alarms on the router.

Alarm Severity Levels

The system alarms on the vEdge 100b router have two types of severity levels:

• Major (red)—Indicates a critical situation on the router resulting from one of two conditions:

• One or more hardware components on the router has failed.

• One or more hardware components on the router has exceeded the temperature threshold.

A major alarm condition requires immediate attention. If a temperature related major alarm persists for more than five minutes, the router will shut down.

• Minor (yellow)—Indicates a warning on the router that, if left unattended, might result in an interruption in router operation or degradation in router performance. A yellow alarm condition requires further monitoring and/or maintenance.

vEdge 100b Router

Hardware Alarms

Hardware alarms on the vEdge 100b router are predefined and are triggered by a physical condition on the router such as a power supply failure, excessive component temperature, or fan failure. The vEdge 100b router triggers the following types of hardware alarms:

• Main board temperature alarm—The main board of the router has one temperature sensing point (board sensor 0). If the temperature of the sensor location crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

• CPU temperature alarm—If the temperature of the system CPU crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

Table 1 lists the yellow and red alarm threshold for the temperature sensing points in the system—one board sensor on the board and one CPU junction temperature sensor.

Table 14:

Restore a vEdge Router

This article explains how to revert the configuration for a vEdge router to the factory-default values. It also explains how to do a soft and hard reset of the router.

Reverting to the vEdge Router Factory-Default Configuration

After you set up and start the virtual machines (VMs) for the vEdge Cloud routers and set up and start the hardware vEdge routers in your overlay network, they come up with a factory-default configuration . When you make and commit changes to the default configuration, a new configuration file is created. This new configuration file then becomes the active configuration.

If desired, you can revert to the default factory configuration:

vEdge# request software reset

Reset the Router

You can reset the vEdge router by doing either a hard press or a soft press. To perform either type of press, locate the Reset button on the front panel of the router. The Reset button is recessed to avoid accidentally pressing it while the router is operational. To press the Reset button, use a sharp narrow tool.

Perform a Long Press Reset

A long press reset of the vEdge router erases passwords, keys, and most other configuration parameters, restoring the router to its factory-default configuration.

Return Hardware

To perform a long press reset, press the Reset button for more than 10 seconds. After you release the Reset button, the router will reboot and resume normal operation.

Perform a Short Press Reset

A short press reset of the Edge router is equivalent to a graceful software reboot and is the same as entering the reboot command at the CLI prompt.

To perform a short press reset, press the Reset button for two seconds. The short press reset takes effect almost instantaneously and reboots the router.

vEdge 100m Router

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

You can monitor and troubleshoot the vEdge 100m router using the various LEDs and system alarms on the router.

Alarm Severity Levels

The system alarms on the vEdge 100m router have two severity levels:

• Major (red)—Indicates a critical situation on the router resulting from one of two conditions:

• One or more hardware components on the router has failed.

• One or more hardware components on the router has exceeded the temperature threshold.

Maintenance and Troubleshooting

A major alarm condition requires immediate attention. If a temperature related major alarm persists for more than five minutes, the router will shut down.

• Minor (yellow)—Indicates a warning on the router that, if left unattended, might result in an interruption in router operation or degradation in router performance. A yellow alarm condition requires further monitoring and/or maintenance.

Hardware Alarms

Hardware alarms on the vEdge 100m router are predefined and are triggered by a physical condition on the router such as a power supply failure, excessive component temperature, or fan failure. The vEdge 100m router triggers the following types of hardware alarms:

• Main board temperature alarm—The main board of the router has one temperature sensing point (board sensor 0). If the temperature of the sensor location crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

• CPU temperature alarm—If the temperature of the system CPU crosses the predefined threshold level, the system triggers an alarm.

• Fan alarm—The router has a fixed built-in fan for system cooling which runs at a variable speed. The Viptela software maintains the fan at an optimal fan speed, raising the speed as the ambient temperature increases and decreasing the speed as the temperature decreases, to keep the router operating at the lowest possible temperature in the green temperature threshold. If the fan stops running, the system triggers an alarm. Also if the fan starts to run below a predefined RPM threshold, the system triggers an alarm.

Table 1 lists the yellow and red alarm threshold for the temperature sensing points in the system—one board sensor on the board and one CPU junction temperature sensor. The lower threshold value (Bad Fan) applies if a fan failure condition is also detected; otherwise, the higher threshold value (normal) applies.

Checking Alarms and Notifications

To view the current chassis environment condition , enter the show hardware environment command at the system prompt. The system displays the power supply status, temperature sensor readings, fan speed, and related alarm status if any exists.

To view the severity of active alarms, enter the show hardware alarms command at the system prompt. The system displays the alarm severity and a brief description of the cause of each active alarm.

To view temperature thresholds at which green, yellow, and red alarms are generated, enter the show hardware temperature-thresholds command at the system prompt. The system displays the alarm temperature threshold information for a specific board or all boards in the router and for the router's CPU.

To view all other events on a Viptela device, enter the show notification stream command. The system displays notifications about events that have occurred on the Viptela device.

LEDs

The chassis LEDs located on the front panel of the vEdge 100m router indicate the status of the router.

If one or more major alarms are active in the router, the Status LED is lit red. If one or more minor alarms are active in the router, the Status LED is lit solid yellow. See Front and Rear Panel Components for details of the LEDs and the status they indicate.

Restore a vEdge Router

This article explains how to revert the configuration for a vEdge router to the factory-default values. It also explains how to do a soft and hard reset of the router.

Reverting to the vEdge Router Factory-Default Configuration

After you set up and start the virtual machines (VMs) for the vEdge Cloud routers and set up and start the hardware vEdge routers in your overlay network, they come up with a factory-default configuration . When you make and commit changes to the default configuration, a new configuration file is created. This new configuration file then becomes the active configuration.

If desired, you can revert to the default factory configuration:

Return Hardware

Reset the Router

You can reset the vEdge router by doing either a hard press or a soft press. To perform either type of press, locate the Reset button on the front panel of the router. The Reset button is recessed to avoid accidentally pressing it while the router is operational. To press the Reset button, use a sharp narrow tool.

Perform a Long Press Reset

A long press reset of the vEdge router erases passwords, keys, and most other configuration parameters, restoring the router to its factory-default configuration.

To perform a long press reset, press the Reset button for more than 10 seconds. After you release the Reset button, the router will reboot and resume normal operation.

Perform a Short Press Reset

A short press reset of the Edge router is equivalent to a graceful software reboot and is the same as entering the reboot command at the CLI prompt.

To perform a short press reset, press the Reset button for two seconds. The short press reset takes effect almost instantaneously and reboots the router.

Return Hardware

This article describes how to return a vEdge router or a hardware component to Viptela for repair or replacement.

Locate Serial and Model Number

AC Power Cord Specifications

The vEdge 100wm router ships with a detachable AC power cord. The power cord has a C5 female connector at one end, and the other end is specific to the country/locality to which the product is shipped.

Cooling System in a vEdge 100wm Router

The cooling system in a vEdge 100wm router consists of internal heat sinks and an internal fan with adjustable speed. The fan speed is algorithmically controlled, based on readings obtained from internal temperature sensors. The internal temperature is affected by factors such as the external ambient temperature and the traffic workload.

If the ambient temperature inside the chassis rises above the acceptable range, the router raises an alarm. If the temperature inside the chassis rises above the maximum threshold temperature, the router shuts down automatically.
