3.2 Switch Installation

Installing the Switch Without the Rack
1. Install the Switch on a level surface that can safely support the weight of the Switch and its attached cables. The Switch must have adequate space for ventilation and for accessing cable connectors.
2. Set the Switch on a flat surface and check for proper ventilation. Allow at least 5 cm (2 inches) on each side of the Switch and 15 cm (6 inches) at the back for the power cable.
3. Attach the rubber feet on the marked locations on the bottom of the chassis.
The rubber feet are recommended to keep the unit from slipping.
- 14 -

3.3 Installing the Switch in a Rack

You can install the Switch in most standard 19-inch (48.3-cm) racks. Refer to the illustrations below.
1. Use the supplied screws to attach a mounting bracket to each side of the Switch.
2. Align the holes in the mounting bracket with the holes in the rack.
3. Insert and tighten two screws through each of the mounting brackets.
- 15 -

3.4 Quick Starting the Switch

1. Read the device Installation Guide for the connectivity procedure. In-band connectivity allows access to the FortiSwitch-548B Series Switch locally. From a remote workstation,the device must be configured with IP information (IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway).
2. Turn the Power ON.
3. Allow the device to load the software until the login prompt appears. The device initial state is called the default mode.
4. When the prompt asks for operator login, do the following: Type the word admin in the login area. Since a number of the Quick Setup commands require
administrator account rights, FORTINET suggests logging into an administrator account.
 Do not enter a password because there is no password in the default mode.  Press the <Enter> key  The CLI Privileged EXEC mode prompt will be displayed.  Use “configure” to switch to the Global Config mode from Privileged EXEC.  Use “exit” to return to the previous mode.

4. Console and Telnet Administration Interface

This chapter discusses many of the features used to manage the Switch, and explains many concepts and important points regarding these features. Configuring the Switch to implement these concepts is discussed in detail in chapter 6.

4.1 Local Console Management

Local console management involves the administration of the Switch via a direct connection to the RS-232 DCE console port. This is an Out-of-band connection, meaning that it is on a different circuit than normal network communications, and thus works even when the network is down.
The local console management connection involves a terminal or PC running terminal emulation software to operate the Switch’s built-in console program (see Chapter 6). Using the console program, a network administrator can manage, control, and monitor many functions of the Switch. Hardware components in the Switch allow it to be an active part of a manageable network. These components include a CPU, memory for data storage, other related hardware, and SNMP agent firmware. Activities on the Switch can be monitored with these components, while the Switch can be manipulated to carry out specific tasks.

4.2 Set Up your Switch Using Console Access

Out-of-band management requires connecting a terminal, such as a VT-100 or a PC running a terminal-emulation program (such as HyperTerminal, which is automatically installed with Microsoft Windows) to the RS-232 DCE console port of the Switch. Switch management using the RS-232 DCE console port is called Local Console Management to differentiate it from management done via management platforms, such as DView or HP OpenView.
Make sure the terminal or PC you are using to make this connection is configured to match these settings. If you are having problems making this connection on a PC, make sure the emulation is set to VT-100 or ANSI. If you still don’t see anything, try pressing <Ctrl> + r to refresh the screen.
First-time configuration must be carried out through a console, that is, either (a) a VT100-type serial data terminal, or (b) a computer running communications software set to emulate a VT100. The console must be connected to the Diagnostics port. This is an RS-232 port with a 9-socket D-shell connector and DCE-type wiring. Make the connection as follows:
1. Obtain suitable cabling for the connection.You can use a null-modem RS-232 cable or an
ordinary RS-232 cable and a null-modem adapter. One end of the cable (or cable/adapter combination) must have a 9-pin D-shell connector suitable for the Diagnostics port; the other end must have a connector suitable for the console’s serial communications port.
2. Power down the devices, attach the cable (or cable/adapter combination) to the correct ports,
and restore power.
3. Set the console to use the following communication parameters for your terminal:
- 21 -
The console port is set for the following configuration: Baud rate: 11,520 Data width: 8 bits Parity: none Stop bits: 1 Flow Control: none
A typical console connection is illustrated below:
Figure 3-1: Console Setting Environment
- 22 -

4.3 Set Up your Switch Using Telnet Access

Once you have set an IP address for your Switch, you can use a Telnet program (in a VT-100 compatible terminal mode) to access and control the Switch. Most of the screens are identical, whether accessed from the console port or from a Telnet interface.
- 23 -

5. Web-Based Management Interface

5.1 Overview

The Fortinet FortiSwitch-548B Series Layer III plus QoS Managed Switch provides a built-in browser interface that lets you configure and manage it remotely using a standard Web browser such as Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 or later or Netscape Navigator 6.0 or later. This interface also allows for system monitoring and management of the switch. The ‘help’ page covers many of the basic functions and features of the switch and its Web interface. When you configure the switch for the first time from the console, you can assign an IP address and subnet mask to the switch. Thereafter, you can access the switch’s Web interface directly using your Web browser by entering the switch’s IP address into the address bar. In this way, you can use your Web browser to manage the switch from a central location, just as if you were directly connected to the switch’s console port. Below figure shows this management method.
- 24 -

5.2 How to log in

The Fortinet FortiSwitch-548B Series Layer III plus QoS Managed Switch can be configured remotely from Microsoft Internet Explorer (version 5.0 or above), or Mozilla FireFox (version 3.6 or above).
1. Determine the IP address of your managed switch.
2. Open your Web browser.
3. Log in to the managed switch using the IP address the unit is currently configured with.
4. Type the default user name of admin and default of no password, or whatever password you have set up.
Once you have entered your access point name, your Web browser automatically finds the FortiSwitch-548B Series Layer III Managed Switch and display the home page, as shown below.
- 25 -

5.3 Web-Based Management Menu

6. Command Line Interface Structure and Mode-based CLI

The Command Line Interface (CLI) syntax, conventions, and terminology are described in this section. Each CLI command is illustrated using the structure outlined below.

6.1 CLI Command Format

Commands are followed by values, parameters, or both.
Example 1 ip address <ipaddr> <netmask> [<gateway>]
ip address is the command name.  <ipaddr> <netmask> are the required values for the command.  [<gateway>] is the optional value for the command.
Example 2 snmp-server location <loc>
snmp-server location is the command name. <loc> is the required parameter for the command.
Example 3 clear vlan clear vlan is the command name.
Command
The text in bold, non-italic font must be typed exactly as shown.
- 30 -

6.2 CLI Mode-based Topology

Parameters
Parameters are order dependent.
The text in bold italics should be replaced with a name or number. To use spaces as part of a name parameter, enclose it in double quotes like this: "System Name with Spaces".
Parameters may be mandatory values, optional values, choices, or a combination.
<parameter>. The <> angle brackets indicate that a mandatory parameter must be entered in
place of the brackets and text inside them.
[parameter]. The [] square brackets indicate that an optional parameter may be entered in place
of the brackets and text inside them.
choice1 | choice2. The | indicates that only one of the parameters should be entered.
The {} curly braces indicate that a parameter must be chosen from the list of choices.
Values
ipaddr This parameter is a valid IP address, made up of four decimal bytes ranging from 0 to 255.
The default for all IP parameters consists of zeros (that is, 0.0.0.0). The interface IP address of 0.0.0.0 is invalid.
macaddr The MAC address format is six hexadecimal numbers separated by colons, for example 00:06:29:32:81:40.
areaid Area IDs may be entered in dotted-decimal notation (for example, 0.0.0.1). An area ID of
0.0.0.0 is reserved for the backbone. Area IDs have the same form as IP addresses, but are distinct from
IP addresses. The IP network number of the sub-netted network may be used for the area ID.
routerid The value of <router id> must be entered in 4-digit dotted-decimal notation (for example, 0.0.0.1). A router ID of 0.0.0.0 is invalid.
slot/port This parameter denotes a valid slot number, and a valid port number. For example, 0/1 represents unit number 1, slot number 0 and port number 1. The <slot/port> field is composed of a valid slot number and a valid port number separated by a forward slash (/).
logical slot/port This parameter denotes a logical slot number, and logical port number assigned. This is applicable in the case of a port-channel (LAG). The operator can use the logical slot number, and the logical port number to configure the port-channel.

hexidecimal digit pairs
Conventions
Network addresses are used to define a link to a remote host, workstation, or network. Network addresses are shown using the following syntax:
Table 5-1. Network Address Syntax
Double quotation marks such as "System Name with Spaces" set off user defined strings. If the operator wishes to use spaces as part of a name parameter then it must be enclosed in double quotation marks.
Empty strings (““) are not valid user defined strings. Command completion finishes spelling the command when enough letters of a command are typed to uniquely identify the command word. The command may be executed by typing <enter> (command abbreviation) or the command word may be completed by typing the <tab> or <space bar> (command completion).
The value 'Err' designates that the requested value was not internally accessible. This should never happen and indicates that there is a case in the software that is not handled correctly.
The value of '-----' designates that the value is unknown.
Annotations
The CLI allows the user to type single-line annotations at the command prompt for use when writing test or configuration scripts and for better readability. The exclamation point (‘!’) character flags the beginning of a comment. The comment flag character can begin a word anywhere on the command line and all input following this character is ignored. Any command line that begins with the character ‘!’ is recognized as a comment line and ignored by the parser.
Some examples are provided below:
