Follow these steps to mount a PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis in a rack.
You must provide standard #12-24 pan-head screws to mount each chassis in a rack. You will need a Phillips
screwdriver to perform this task.
1. Determine the position of each chassis in the rack. For example, place units with the fewest modules near the
top of the rack, units with more modules near the middle of the rack, and fully populated units near the bottom
of the rack.
2. Using the keyhole slots in the chassis mounting brackets as a guide, align one screw per rack post, as shown in
Figure 5 on page 13. On one side of the rack, the screw should align with the top hole in the mounting bracket.
On the other side of the rack, the screw should align with the bottom hole of the mounting bracket. When
tightening these screws, leave approximately 1/4-inch of clearance between the back of the screw head and the
rack post.
3. Starting with the chassis that will be in the lowest position in the rack, mount the chassis in the rack as shown in
the example of the 8-slot chassis in Figure 6. With two or more people lifting the chassis, slip the wide portion of
each keyhole slot over the corresponding mounting screw in the rack post.

4. Slide the chassis down so that the mounting screw heads are in the narrow portion of the keyhole slots.
5. Tighten the screws to secure the chassis in place. For extra support, use additional screws.
Mounting the B-MLXe 8-slot chassis in a rack
For better grounding of the chassis to the rack, attach the chassis using star washers. You should also use star
washers with any single-hole grounding lugs to keep the lugs from rotating.
6. Repeat step 2 through step 5 to mount each chassis in the rack.
Installing modules
Use these procedures to install modules into empty slots. The same procedure applies to all modules.
The following sequence for installing multiple modules is important to ensure proper fit:
•
For the 4-slot and 8-slot chassis, install modules right-to-left, beginning with the lowest row and moving up.
•
For the 16-slot chassis, begin by filling the slots from the left side of the router, and work towards the right side.
The intra-building ports of the equipment or subassembly is suitable for connection to intra-building or
unexposed wiring or cabling only. The intra-building ports of the equipment or subassembly MUST NOT
be metallically connected to interfaces that connect to the outside plant (OSP) or its wiring. These
interfaces are designed for use as intra-building interfaces only (Type 2 or Type 4 ports as described in
GR-1089-CORE, Issue 4) and require isolation from the exposed OSP cabling. The addition of Primary
Protectors is not sufficient protection in order to connect these interfaces metallically to OSP wiring.

The management module’s 10BaseT/100BaseTX/1000BaseTX Ethernet (management) port (RJ-45 UTP connector)
allows you to connect the management port to a network. A management station in your existing management
network can then access a PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis using the management application.
To attach the management module’s Ethernet port to a network, you need a Category 5 UTP straight-through cable
(not supplied by Dell). Connect one end of the straight-through cable to the management port and the other end to
the network.
Activating the power source
After you complete the hardware installation, you can power-on your power source.
1. Verify that all modules and power supplies are fully and properly installed and no module slots are uncovered.
If you do not install a module in a slot, you must keep the slot blank in place. If you run the chassis with
an uncovered slot, the system may overheat.
2. If your power source is AC, attach one end of a Dell-supplied AC power cord to the AC power supply as described
in “Connecting AC power” on page 21.
Insert the other end into a 115V or 120V wall outlet. Repeat this step for each installed AC power supply.
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.
The PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis is designed to provide uninterrupted service even when you insert or
remove the management modules and the interface modules. Therefore, the system does not have a separate
on/off power switch. To turn the system off, simply unplug the power cords.
The wall outlet should be installed near the equipment and should be easily accessible.

the DC power supply as described in “Connecting DC Power” on page 22.
Connect the other end of the cables to the DC power source. Repeat this step for each installed DC power
supply. Then switch on the power source.
4. Verify that the PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis has initialized successfully. For information, see “Verifying
proper operation,” below.
Verifying proper operation
To verify the proper operation of the PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis after power on, you can do the following:
•
Observe the LEDs.
•
Display the status of the modules using the CLI.
Observing the LEDs
After a PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis powers on, you can observe its LEDs to verify that it initialized
successfully. Refer to your hardware installation guide for a complete description of LED operation and status
messages displayed through the CLI show module command.
If a problem persists, contact technical support.
Displaying the module status
After you have attached a PC or terminal to the management module’s Console or Ethernet port and the
PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis has initialized successfully, press Enter to display the following CLI prompt in
the terminal emulation window:
PowerConnect>
If you do not see this prompt, do the following:
1. Make sure the cable is securely connected to your PC or terminal and the Console port or Ethernet port.
2. Check the settings in your terminal emulation program. In addition to the session settings listed in “Attaching a
PC or terminal to the Console port or Ethernet port” on page 24, make sure the terminal emulation session is
running on the same serial port you attached to the Console port.
If you see this prompt (PowerConnect>), you are now connected to the system and can display the status of the
modules using the CLI. Enter the following command at any CLI level:

Assigning passwords
NOTE
NOTE
NOTE
By default, the PowerConnect B-MLXe Series CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Dell strongly
recommends assigning passwords.
The CLI contains the following access levels:
•
Privileged EXEC – This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password. From this level you
can manage files on the management module flash memory or a PCMCIA flash card in the management module
slots 1 or 2, save the system configuration to flash memory, and clear caches.
•
CONFIG – The configuration level. This level lets you configure the system’s IP address and configure routing
features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already be logged into the Privileged level of the EXEC mode.
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.
To set passwords:
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter the following command to change to the Privileged level of the EXEC mode:
PowerConnect> enable
PowerConnect#
2. Access the CONFIG level of the CLI by entering the following command:
If you forget your super-user password, see the Release Notes.
The read-only--password and the port-config password should be difference from the super-user password.
Passwords can be up to 48 characters long.

Configuring IP addresses
The PowerConnect B-MLXe Series implement separate data and control planes. This architecture affects how you
assign IP addresses. Tabl e 3 outlines the interfaces to which you can assign IP addresses.
In this table, “in band” refers to an interface over which user packets are routed, while “out of band” refers to an
interface over which control packets related to system management are forwarded.
TABLE 3
InterfaceAssociated physical portOut of band or in band

This section describes the following:
•
PowerConnect B-MLXe Series support of sub-net masks
•
How to assign an IP address to a management interface
•
How to assign an IP address to an interface or virtual interface over which user packets are routed
Out of band
Support of subnet masks
The PowerConnect B-MLXe Series supports both classical IP network masks (Class A, B, and C subnet masks, and so
on) and Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) network prefix masks.
•
To enter a classical network mask, enter the mask in IP address format. For example, enter
“209.157.22.99 255.255.255.0” 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 “209.157.22.99/24” for an IP address that has a network
mask with 24 significant (“mask”) bits.
Assigning an IP address to a management interface
Instead of assigning a global IP address to the B-MLXe for system management purposes, you must assign an IP
address to the active management module. If the active management module becomes unavailable and the
redundant module becomes the active module, the IP address is automatically assigned to the new active
management module.
For example, to assign the IP address 10.0.1.1 to the management interface, do the following:
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable:
PowerConnect> enable
2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt (for example, PowerConnect#), then press
Enter. This command erases the factory test configuration if still present:
PowerConnect# erase startup-config
28PowerConnect B-MLXe Getting Started Guide
53-1001995-01
CAUTION
Use the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a system you
CAUTION
have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentally erase the
configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save the running
configuration to the startup-config file.
3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
PowerConnect# configure terminal Privileged EXEC Level
PowerConnect(config)# Global CONFIG Level
4. Configure the IP address and mask for the management interface by entering the following commands:
PowerConnect(config)# interface management 1
PowerConnect(config-if-mgmt-1)# ip address 10.0.1.1 255.255.255.0
Assigning an IP address to an interface, virtual interface, or loopback
You must assign an IP address to each interface and virtual interface over which user packets are routed. You can
also assign an IP address to a loopback interface, which is generally used for testing and diagnostic purposes. You
must use the serial connection to assign the first IP address. For subsequent addresses, you also can use the CLI
through Telnet or the Web management interface. By default, you can configure up to 24 IP interfaces on each
interface, virtual interface, and loopback interface.
For example, to assign IP address 192.22.3.44 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0 to Ethernet interface 1/1, do the
following.
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.
PowerConnect> enable
2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, then press Enter. This command erases the
factory test configuration if still present:
PowerConnect# erase startup-config
After you enter this command, you will need to restart the system.
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 erase the
configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save the running
configuration to the startup-config file.
3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
PowerConnect B-MLXe Getting Started Guide29
53-1001995-01
4. Configure the IP address and sub-net mask for Ethernet interface 1/1 by entering the following commands:
PowerConnect(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
PowerConnect(config-if-e10000-1/1)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
Use the secondary parameter if you have already configured an IP address within the same subnet on the interface.
Enabling and disabling the interfaces
By default, all B-MLXe interfaces are disabled. To enable an interface, enter the enable command at the appropriate
interface configuration level of the CLI. For example, to enable the management interface, enter the enable
command at the management interface configuration level of the CLI.
PowerConnect(config-if-mgmt-1)# enable
You can disable each of these interfaces using the disable command at the appropriate interface configuration level
of the CLI. For example, to disable the management port, enter the disable command at the management interface
configuration level of the CLI.
PowerConnect(config-if-mgmt-1)# disable
Connecting the PowerConnect B-MLXe Series to a network device
You can connect a PowerConnect B-MLXe Series chassis to another Ethernet network device. The PowerConnect
B-MLXe Series chassis supports connections to other vendors’ as well as Dell network devices.
