Product Overview
Software Features
Software features differ depending on the software version that is loaded on the device. When first shipped, Standard and POE devices support full Layer 2 and base Layer 3 Switching. FWSX devices support full Layer 2 Switching only. Premium (PREM) devices support full Layer 2 Switching and full Layer 3 multiprotocol routing. All FES and FESX devices can be upgraded to premium models, meaning all models can support full Layer 3 multiprotocol routing.
For a complete list of software features supported on the FESX or FWSX, see the release notes or the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide. For a complete list of software features supported on FES, see the FES release notes.
POE Applications
Foundry’s FES2402-POE, FES4802-POE, and FESX424-POE provide Power over Ethernet, compliant with the standards described in the IEEE 802.3af specification for delivering in-line power. The 802.3af specification defines the standard for delivering power over existing network cabling infrastructure, enabling multicast-enabled full streaming audio and video applications for converged services, such as, Voice over IP (VoIP), WLAN access points, IP surveillance cameras, and other IP technology devices.
POE technology eliminates the need for an electrical outlet and dedicated UPS near IP powered devices. With power sourcing devices, such as Foundry’s FES2402-POE and FES4802-POE, power is consolidated and centralized in the wiring closets, improving the reliability and resiliency of the network. Because POE can provide power over Ethernet cable, power is continuous, even in the event of a power failure.
For more information about POE and how to configure it on FES devices, see the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide. For information about POE and how to configure it on FESX devices, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide.
Wireless Applications
You can convert (upgrade) your FastIron Edge Switch to an IronPoint-FES device. Converting your FES to an IronPoint–FES allows you to run a software image that contains wireless feature support.
To convert your FES to an IronPoint-FES, you need an EEPROM kit, part number FESWLAN. The kit includes a Dual Inline Package (DIP) key, IronPoint-FES software, upgrade instructions, and other items. Alternatively, you can order an IronPoint-FES with the EEPROM and wireless software already installed.
You can convert the following FES devices to an IronPoint-FES:
FastIron Edge Switch 2402
FastIron Edge Switch 4802
FastIron Edge Switch 9604
FastIron Edge Switch 2402–DC
FastIron Edge Switch 4802–DC
FastIron Edge Switch 9402–DC
FastIron Edge Switch 2402-POE
FastIron Edge Switch 4802-POE
NOTE: You cannot convert the FES12GCF, FastIron Edge Switch X-Series, FastIron Workgroup Switch X­Series, and FastIron SuperX to an IronPoint–FES device.

Product Overview
FES 10/100 Mbps Ports
The 10/100 copper ports support automatic MDI/MDIX detection, and use auto-sensing and auto-negotiating to determine the speed (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps) and mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the port at the other end of the link and adjust port speed accordingly. In addition, the 10/100 ports on the FES POE models can detect
802.3af compatible IP devices and provide power accordingly.
For more information about automatic MDI/MDIX detection, see the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.
The 10/100 ports use RJ-45 connectors. For pinout information, see the chapter “Hardware Specifications” on page 7-1".
The 10/100 Mbps ports on FES devices provide status information using the LEDs listed in Table 2.3.
FES 10/100/1000 Mbps Ports
The 10/100/1000 ports use auto-sensing and auto-negotiating to determine the speed (10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps) and mode (full-duplex or half-duplex) of the port at the other end of the link and adjust port speed accordingly. 10/100/1000 ports on the devices have the following interfaces:
RJ-45 copper interface for 10/100/1000Base-T – Cat5 copper cabling
Mini-GBIC slot for CWDM, 1000Base-BX, LH, LX, or SX – fiber cabling
The copper ports provide auto MDI/MDIX detection (see the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide).
One port out of each pair of copper and fiber ports can be active at a time. For example, on the FES12GCF, you can use either Copper port 10 or Fiber port 10, but not both at the same time. You can use a combination of fiber and copper ports or all copper or all fiber ports, as needed. On the FES, if you attach both the copper and fiber connectors for a port to the network, the fiber connector takes precedence over the copper connector and will be the active connector for the port. Insertion of a fiber mini-GBIC disables the copper connector. To enable a port’s copper connector, you must remove the port’s fiber mini-GBIC.
The 10/100/1000 Mbps ports on the FES provide status information using the LEDs listed in Table 2.3. The fiber connectors on the FES devices use the Lnk and Act LEDs located between the mini-GBIC slots for the fiber ports. The copper connectors use triangular LEDs located in the upper right and left corners of the upper Gigabit copper connector. The LED on the left side is for the upper copper connector. The LED on the right side is for the lower copper connector.

FESX424HF 100/1000 Mbps Ports
The 100/1000 ports on the FESX424HF are configurable to support the interfaces listed in the section “FESX and FWSX Network Interfaces” on page 2-11.
The output of the show media command displays the type of media installed in the ports.
FESX and FWSX
One port out of the four fiber ports or the first four copper ports can be active at a time. For example, you can use ports 1C –4C of the Gigabit Copper ports or ports 1 – 4 of the Gigabit Fiber ports. You can use a combination of fiber and copper ports or all copper or all fiber ports, as needed.
If you attach both the copper and fiber connectors for a port to the network, the fiber connectors take precedence over the copper connectors. These ports support true media automatic detection, meaning the device selects the fiber or copper connector based on link availability. If a fiber link cannot be established, the device selects the copper media.
FESX and FWSX 10 Gbps Ports
The 10 Gigabit Ethernet module on the FESX and FWSX is optional. If one is installed on your device, it has either a one- or two-port optical interface for XFP MSA-compliant 10GBase-LR, 10GBase-SR, or 10GBase-ER – fiber cabling.
The 10 Gigabit Ethernet ports use 10-Gigabit Small Form Factor Pluggable (XFP) MSA-compliant transceivers.

NOTE: Some older SFP modules (mini-GBICs for Gigabit Ethernet ports) have latching mechanisms which are larger than the newer parts. These latches could interfere with one another when inserted side by side into a SuperX module. Avoid using these mini-GBICs side by side in the same module. These older modules are identified by the number PL-XPL-00-S13-22 or PL-XPL-00-L13-23 above the Serial Number. All newer mini­GBICs do not have this limitation.
Power Supplies
Each FastIron stackable switch comes with one alternating-current (AC) or direct-current (DC) power supply, depending on how it was ordered from the factory. All models have two power supply slots, enabling you to install a second power supply for redundancy. Direct-current (DC) supplies are available for some devices, in which you can use any combination of AC and DC supplies in the same device. The following table lists the power supplies that may be installed in a FastIron stackable switch.

Cooling System and Fans
This section describes the fans in the FES, FESX, and FWSX chassis.
FES Fans
Power SwitchPower Supply locking screw
The FES cooling fans cool the CPU, main memory, and voltage regulators. The fans use either a push or pull configuration to move the air from the left side of the device to the right side of the device.
The fans in the FES operate at a steady speed, and do not support multiple fan speeds as do the fans in the FESX and FWSX.
FESX and FWSX Fans
The FastIron Edge Switch X-Series and FastIron Workgroup Switch X-Series include two three-speed fans that operate at low speed, then adjust based on the ambient temperature and configured or default temperature thresholds. Both fans operate simultaneously at the same speed. If one fan fails, it does not affect the operation of the other fan.
2 - 20 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006
Page 31
Product Overview
The fans can operate at speeds of low, medium, and high. The system uses a fan speed switch and a default or configured temperature threshold associated with it to determine at which speed the fan should operate. Fan speed switches are as follows:
slow-to-medium
medium-to-slow
medium-to-fast
fast-to-medium
If desired, you can change the settings of the temperature thresholds associated with fan speed switches. For more information, see “Managing the FESX and FWSX Fan Settings and Temperature Sensors” on page 5-3.

Attaching a PC or Terminal
To assign an IP address, you must have access to the Command Line Interface (CLI). The CLI is a text-based interface that can be accessed through a direct serial connection to the device and through Telnet connections. The CLI is described in detail in the Foundry Switch and Router Command Line Interface Reference.
You need to assign an IP address using the CLI. You can access the CLI by attaching a serial cable to the Console port. After you assign an IP address, you can access the system through Telnet, the Web management interface, or IronView Network Manager.
To attach a management station using the serial port:
1. Connect a PC or terminal to the serial port of the system using a straight-through cable. The serial port has a male DB-9 connector.
NOTE: You need to run a terminal emulation program on the PC.
2. Open the terminal emulation program and set the session parameters as follows:
Baud: 9600 bps
Data bits: 8
3 - 10 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006
Page 43
Installing a FastIron Stackable Switch
Parity: None
Stop bits: 1
Flow control: None
When you establish the serial connection to the system, press Enter to display the CLI prompt in the terminal emulation window. For example:
FESX Switch>
FESX Switch-PREM>
If you see one of these prompts, you are now connected to the system and can proceed to “Assigning Permanent Passwords” on page 4-1.
You can customize the prompt by changing the system name. See the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.
If you do not see one of these prompts:
1. Make sure the cable is securely connected to your PC and to the Foundry system.
2. Check the settings in your terminal emulation program. In addition to the session settings listed above, make sure the terminal emulation session is running on the same serial port you attached to the Foundry system.
The EIA/TIA 232 serial communication port serves as a connection point for management by a PC or SNMP workstation. Foundry switches and Layer 3 Switches come with a standard male DB-9 connector, shown in Figure
3.2.

Most PC serial ports also require a cable with a female DB-9 connector.
Terminal connections will vary, requiring either a DB-9 or DB-25 connector, male or female.
Serial cable options between a Foundry switch or router and a PC or terminal are shown in Figure 3.3.
NOTE: As indicated in Figure 3.2 and Figure 3.3, some of the wires should not be connected. If you do connect the wires that are labeled “Reserved”, you might get unexpected results with some terminals.

Assigning Permanent Passwords
By default, the CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Foundry strongly recommends assigning passwords. See the Foundry Security Guide.
NOTE: You cannot assign a password using the Web management interface. You can assign passwords using IronView Network Manager 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.
June 2006 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. 4 - 1
Page 46
Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX
Privileged EXEC – This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password. You can perform tasks such as manage files on the flash module, save the system configuration to flash, and clear caches at this level.
CONFIG – The configuration level. This level lets you configure the system’s IP address and configure switching and 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.
NOTE: 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:
FESX Switch> enable
2. Access the CONFIG level of the CLI by entering the following command:
FESX Switch# configure terminal FESX Switch(config)#
3. Enter the following command to set the super-user password:
FESX Switch(config)# enable super-user-password <text>
NOTE: 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:
FESX Switch(config)# enable port-config-password <text> FESX Switch(config)# enable read-only-password <text>
NOTE: If you forget your super-user password, see “Recovering from a Lost Password” on page 4-2.
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.
NOTE: Recovery from a lost password requires direct access to the serial port and a system reset.
To recover from a lost password:
1. Start a CLI session over the serial interface to the Foundry 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.)
4 - 2 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006
Page 47
Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity
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, Foundry routers require an IP subnet address for the subnet in which you plan to place them in your network.
Foundry devices support 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.
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. See the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry Enterprise Configuration and Management Guide.
NOTE: If your network uses a BootStrap Protocol (BootP) server or a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, you can allow the Foundry device to obtain IP addresses for the hosts on the network.
Devices Running Layer 3 Software
Before attaching equipment to a Foundry Layer 3 Switch, you must assign an interface IP address to the subnet on which the router will be located. 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 port, virtual interface, and loopback interface. You can increase this amount to up to 64 IP subnet addresses per port by increasing the size of the subnet-per­interface table. See the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.
The following procedure shows how to add an IP address and mask to a router port.
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.
FESX Router> enable
2. Enter the following command at the CLI Privileged EXEC level prompt, then press Enter. This command erases the factory test configuration if still present:
FESX Router# erase startup-config
CAUTION: 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 startup-config file.
3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
FESX Router# configure terminal Privileged EXEC Level FESX Router(config)# Global CONFIG Level
4. Configure the IP addresses and mask addresses for the interfaces on the router.
FESX Router(config)# int e 2
June 2006 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. 4 - 3
Page 48
Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX
FESX Router(config-if-e1000-2)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
NOTE: You can use the syntax ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits> if you know the subnet mask length. In the above example, you could enter ip address 192.22.3.44/24.
Syntax: enable [<password>]
Syntax: configure terminal
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask> [secondary]
or
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits> [secondary]
Use the secondary parameter if you have already configured an IP address within the same subnet on the interface.
Devices Running Layer 2 Software
To configure an IP Address on a device running Layer 2 software:
1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.
FESX Switch> enable
2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt (for example, FESX Switch#), then press Enter. This command erases the factory test configuration if still present:
FESX Switch# erase startup-config
CAUTION: 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 startup-config file.
3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:
FESX Switch# configure terminal Privileged EXEC Level FESX Switch(config)# Global CONFIG Level
4. Configure the IP address and mask for the switch.
FESX Switch(config)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
5. Set a default gateway address for the switch.
FESX Switch(config)# ip default-gateway 192.22.3.1
NOTE: You do not need to assign a default gateway address for single subnet networks.
Syntax: enable [<password>]
Syntax: configure terminal
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr> <ip-mask>
or
Syntax: [no] ip address <ip-addr>/<mask-bits>
Syntax: ip default-gateway <ip-addr>

Cable Specifications
See “Cable Specifications” on page 7-5 for cable lengths and types.
Connecting to Ethernet or Fast Ethernet Hubs
For copper connections to Ethernet hubs, a 10/100BaseTX or 1000BaseT switch, or another Foundry device, a crossover cable is required (Figure 4.1 and Figure 4.2). If the hub is equipped with an uplink port, it will require a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.
NOTE: The 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI/MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of the connection between two 1000Base-T ports. Therefore, a crossover cable may not be required; a straight-through cable may work as well. For more information about this feature, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.

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 via fiber ports. See “Connecting a Network Device to a Fiber Port” on page 4-6.
Automatic MDI/MDIX Detection
All 10/100 and Gigabit Ethernet Copper ports on the Foundry FastIron devices support automatic Media Dependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface Crossover (MDIX) detection. This feature is enabled on all 10/100 and Gigabit copper ports by default. For each port, you can disable auto MDI/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, see the Foundry FastIron X-Series Configuration Guide or the Foundry Switch and Router Installation and Basic Configuration Guide.
Connecting a Network Device to a Fiber Port
For direct attachment from the Foundry device to a Gigabit NIC, switch, or router, fiber cabling with an LC connector is required.
To connect the Foundry 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 XFP-MSA 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 XFP 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 FastIron Stackable device is powered on and running.
Before installing one of these modules into the port, have the following on hand:
An ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to a metal surface.
4 - 6 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006
Page 51
Connecting Network Devices and Checking Connectivity
WARNING: For safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 meg ohm resistor.
To install a fiber optic module, do the following:
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
To cable a fiber optic module, do the following:
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, Foundry strongly recommends cleaning the cable connectors and the port connectors. For more information, see “Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors” on page 4-7.
3. Gently insert the cable connector(s) (a tab on each connector should face upward) into the port connector(s) until the tabs lock into place.
4. Observe the link and active LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioning properly. For more information about the LED indicators, see Table 4.2 on page 4-9.
Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors
To avoid problems with the connection between the fiber optic module (SFP (mini-GBIC) or XFP) and the fiber cable connectors, Foundry strongly recommends cleaning both connectors 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, Foundry recommends using the fiber-optic reel-type cleaner that shipped with your FastIron chassis. You can also purchase this type of cleaner from the following Website:
http://www.fisfiber.com/Home_Page.asp
When not using an SFP or XFP 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 Foundry device can reach another device through the network, enter a command such as the following at any level of the CLI on the Foundry device:
FESX Switch> ping 192.33.4.7
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]
See the Foundry Switch and Router Command Line Interface Reference for information about the parameters.
NOTE: 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 4.2 outlines the LEDs related to the 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.

Verify that the transmit port on the Foundry device is connected to the receive port on the other network device, and that the receive port on the Foundry device is connected to the transmit port on the other network device. If you are not certain, 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, see “Cleaning the Fiber-Optic Connectors” on page 4-7.
If the other actions don’t resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different cable.

blinking (Yellow)
If a problem persists after taking these actions, contact Foundry’s technical support.
The port is transmitting and receiving user packets.
Off for an extended period.
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/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 the Web management interface or IronView Network Manager.
Tracing a Route
To determine the path through which a Foundry device can reach another device, enter a command such as the following at any level of the CLI on the Foundry device:
FESX Switch> traceroute 192.33.4.7
June 2006 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. 4 - 9
Page 54
Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX
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 Foundry device displays up to three responses by default.
See the Foundry Switch and Router Command Line Interface Reference for information about the command syntax.
Troubleshooting Network Connections
For the indicated port, verify that both ends of the cabling (at the Foundry device and the connected device) are snug.
Verify that the Foundry 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 the Web management interface or IronView Network Manager.
For copper ports, you can test the cable using Virtual Cable Testing. See “Using Virtual Cable Testing to Diagnose a Cable” on page 4-10.
If the other procedures don’t resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different cable.
Using Virtual Cable Testing to Diagnose a Cable
FESX and FWSX devices provide support for Virtual Cable Test (VCT) technology. VCT technology enables you to diagnose a conductor (wire or cable) by sending a pulsed signal into the conductor, then examining the reflection of that pulse. This method of cable analysis is referred to as Time Domain Reflectometry (TDR). By examining the reflection, the Foundry device can detect and report cable statistics such as; local and remote link pair, cable length, and link status.
Configuration Notes
This feature is supported in the following configurations:
FESX devices running software release 01.1.00 or later
FWSX devices and all associated software releases
This feature is supported on copper ports only. It is not supported on fiber ports.
The port to which the cable is connected must be enabled when you issue the command to diagnose the cable. If the port is disabled, the command is rejected.
If the port is operating at 100 Mbps half-duplex, the TDR test on one pair will fail.
If the remote pair is set to forced 100 Mbps, any change in MDI/MDIX may cause the device to interpret the Multilevel Threshold-3 (MLT-3) as a reflected pulse, in which case, the device will report a faulty condition. In this scenario, it is recommended that you run the TDR test a few times for accurate results.
Command Syntax
To diagnose a cable using TDR, enter commands such as the following at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:
FESX Switch# phy cable-diag tdr 1
The above command diagnoses the cable attached to port 1.
4 - 10 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006

Managing FES Temperature Settings
This section describes how to display temperature settings on the FES chassis and how to change the temperature warning and shutdown levels.
Using the Temperature Sensor on the FES
The FES chassis comes with a built-in temperature sensor. The temperature sensor causes the device to generate a Syslog message and SNMP trap if the temperature exceeds a specified warning level or shutdown level. If the device’s temperature exceeds the safe threshold (shutdown level), the device will shut itself down.
The software reads the temperature sensor according to the chassis poll time, which is 60 seconds by default. If the temperature equals or exceeds the shutdown temperature for five consecutive polls of the temperature by the software, the software will shut down the device to prevent damage.
You can use the CLI or Web management interface to do the following:
Display the temperature of the device
Change the warning and shutdown temperature levels
Change the chassis poll time
June 2006 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. 5 - 1
Page 58
Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX
Displaying the Temperature on the FES
By default, the software polls the temperature sensor every 60 seconds to get the current temperature. This poll rate is controlled by the chassis poll time, which also controls how often the software polls other system components.
To display the temperature of a device, enter the following command at any level of the CLI:
FES Switch> show chassis power supply 1 ok power supply 2 not present power supply 1 to 2 from left to right fan ok Current temperature : 41.0 C degrees Warning level : 64 C degrees, shutdown level : 80 C degrees
Syntax: show chassis
Displaying Temperature Messages on the FES
The software sends a Syslog message and an SNMP trap if the temperature crosses the warning or shutdown thresholds. The following methods describe how to view the system log on the device. If you have configured the device to use a Syslog server or SNMP trap receiver, see the documentation for the server or receiver.
To display the system log, enter the following command at any CLI level:
FES Switch# show log Syslog logging: enabled (0 messages dropped, 0 flushes, 0 overruns)
Buffer logging: level ACDMEINW, 8 messages logged level code: A=alert C=critical D=debugging M=emergency E=error I=informational N=notification W=warning
Static Log Buffer:
Dynamic Log Buffer (50 entries):
at 0 days 0 hours 2 minutes 0 seconds, level alert Temperature 48.0 C degrees, warning level 45.0 C degrees, shutdown level 55.0 C degrees
at 0 days 0 hours 1 minutes 0 seconds, level alert Temperature 50.0 C degrees, warning level 45.0 C degrees, shutdown level 55.0 C degrees
Changing the Temperature Warning and Shutdown Levels on the FES
The default warning temperature is 45.0 C degrees. The default shutdown temperature is 55.0 C degrees. You can change the warning and shutdown temperatures using the following commands. The valid range for each value is 0 – 125 C degrees.
NOTE: You cannot set the warning temperature to a value higher than the shutdown temperature.
To change the temperature at which the device sends a warning, enter a command such as the following at the Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:
FES Switch# temperature warning 47
5 - 2 © 2006 Foundry Networks, Inc. June 2006
Page 59
Managing the FastIron Stackable Chassis
Syntax: temperature warning <value>
The <value> can be 0 – 125.
To change the shutdown temperature, enter a command such as the following at Privileged EXEC level of the CLI:
FES Switch# temperature shutdown 57
Syntax: temperature shutdown <value>
The <value> can be 0 – 125.
Changing the Chassis Temperature Polling Interval
The software reads the temperature sensor and polls other hardware sensors according to the value set for the chassis poll time, which is 60 seconds by default. You can change the chassis poll time using the CLI.
To change the chassis poll time, enter a command such as the following at the global CONFIG level of the CLI:
FES Switch(config)# chassis poll-time 200
Syntax: chassis poll-time <value>
The <value> can be 0 – 65535.
Managing the FESX and FWSX Fan Settings and Temperature Sensors
The FESX and FWSX devices have two three-speed fans that operate at low speed, then adjust based on the ambient temperature and configured or default temperature thresholds. Both fans operate simultaneously at the same speed. If one fan fails, it does not affect the operation of the other fan.
The fans can operate at speeds of low, medium, and high. The system uses a fan speed switch and a default or configured temperature threshold associated with it to determine at which speed a fan should operate. Fan speed switches are as follows:
slow-to-medium
medium-to-slow
medium-to-fast
fast-to-medium
If desired, you can change the settings of the temperature thresholds associated with fan speed switches. See “Changing the Temperature Threshold for a Fan Speed Switch” on page 5-4.
About the Temperature Sensors for Fan Speed Switches
The FESX and FWSX devices include two temperature sensors; one at the air intake, and the other at the exhaust. The FESX and FWSX devices use the exhaust-side temperature sensor against the configured or default temperature threshold to determine at which speed the fans should operate.
By default, the system polls the temperature sensor on the system every 60 seconds to get a temperature reading. Depending on the temperature readings for the system, the system can do the following:
Leave the fan speed as is
Increase the fan speed
Decrease the fan speed
Shut down a module to prevent damage
If desired, you can change the chassis polling interval for temperature sensors. See “Changing the Chassis Temperature Polling Interval” on page 5-3.

Foundry Hardware Installation Guide for the FES, FESX, and FWSX
Changing the Chassis Polling Interval
The procedure for changing the chassis polling interval on the FESX and FWSX is the same as that on the FES device. See “Changing the Chassis Temperature Polling Interval” on page 5-3.
Adjusting Temperature Thresholds
The FESX and FWSX devices provide default settings for temperature thresholds associated with fan speed switches. Therefore, no initial configuration is necessary. If desired, you can change the settings.
By default, the system uses the temperature thresholds shown in Table 5.2.
Table 5.2: Default Temperature Thresholds for Fan Speed Switching
Fan Speed Switch Default Temperature
Threshold
Fast-to-Medium 35
Medium-to-Fast 40
Medium-to-Slow 25
Slow-to-Medium 30
Changing the Temperature Threshold for a Fan Speed Switch
To change the temperature threshold for a fan speed switch, enter a command such as the following:
FESX Switch# temp fan-speed slow-to-medium 30
This command causes the system to switch the fan speed from slow to medium if the system’s temperature reading exceeds 30° C.
Syntax: temp fan-speed <speed-switch> <threshold-value>
where:
<speed-switch> can be one of the following:
fast-to-medium
medium-to-fast
medium-to-slow
slow-to-medium
<threshold-value> is a temperature in Centigrade. Table 5.2 shows the default and recommended temperature thresholds. When changing the temperature threshold for a fan speed switch, remember that the temperature threshold of a higher fan switching speed must be higher than the temperature threshold of a lower fan switching speed.

This section provides information about the following topics:
Installation precautions and warnings
Determining which power supply has failed, if necessary.
Replacing an power supply.
WARNING: Power supplies are hot swappable. However, Foundry Networks 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.
Installation Precautions and Warnings
Follow these precautions when installing a power supply in the FastIron chassis.
WARNING: Before beginning the installation, see the precautions in “Power Precautions” on page 3-4.
CAUTION: Do not install the device in an environment where the operating ambient temperature might exceed
40o C (104o F).
CAUTION: Never leave tools inside the chassis.
Determining Which Power Supply Failed
If you are replacing a power supply that has failed and you are not sure which supply has failed, enter the following command at any CLI command prompt:
FESX Switch> show chassis power supply 1 ok power supply 2 not present power supply 1 to 2 from left to right fan ok Current temperature : 41.0 C degrees Warning level : 64 C degrees, shutdown level : 80 C degrees
This command displays status information for the power supplies and the fans. The power supplies are numbered from left to right. These numbers assume you are facing the front of the device, not the rear.
If the display indicates “Installed (Failed)” for any of the slots, the power supply installed in that particular slot has failed.
AC Power Supplies
Use the following procedures for AC power supplies in FastIron stackable devices. See “Power Supplies” on page 2-17 for a list of which power supplies are supported in which devices, and for illustrations showing power supply placement in the Foundry devices.

Cautions and Warnings
CAUTION: 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.
VORSICHT: Stromkreise, Verdrahtung und Überlastschutz dürfen nicht durch das Gerät überbelastet
werden. Addieren Sie die Nennstromleistung (in Ampere) aller Geräte, die am selben Stromkreis wie das Gerät installiert sind. Somit können Sie feststellen, ob die Gefahr einer Überbelastung der Versorgungsstromkreise vorliegt. Vergleichen Sie diese Summe mit der Nennstromgrenze des Stromkreises. Die Höchstnennströme (in Ampere) stehen normalerweise auf der Geräterückseite neben den Eingangsstromanschlüssen.
MISE EN GARDE: Assurez-vous que le dispositif ne risque pas de surcharger les circuits d'alimentation, le
câblage et la protection de surintensité. Pour déterminer le risque de surcharge des circuits d'alimentation, additionnez l'intensité nominale (ampères) de tous les dispositifs installés sur le même circuit que le dispositif en question. Comparez alors ce total avec la limite de charge du circuit. L'intensité nominale maximum en ampères est généralement imprimée sur chaque dispositif près des connecteurs d'entrée d'alimentation.
PRECAUCIÓN: Verifique que el instrumento no sobrecargue los circuitos de corriente, el cableado y la
protección para sobrecargas. Para determinar la posibilidad de sobrecarga en los circuitos de suministros, añada las capacidades nominales de corriente (amp) de todos los instrumentos instalados en el mismo circuito que el instrumento. Compare esta suma con el límite nominal para el circuito. Las capacidades nominales de corriente máximas están generalmente impresas en los instrumentos, cerca de los conectores de corriente de entrada.
CAUTION: All devices with DC power supplies are intended for installation in restricted access areas
only. A restricted access area is where access can be gained only by service personnel through the use of a special tool, lock and key, or other means of security, and is controlled by the authority responsible for the location.
VORSICHT: Alle Geräte mit DC-Netzteil sind nur für die Installation in Bereichen mit beschränktem
Zugang gedacht. Ein Bereich mit beschränktem Zugang ist ein Bereich, zu dem nur Wartungspersonal mit Spezialwerkzeug, Schlüssel oder anderen Sicherheitsvorrichtungen Zugang hat. Dieser Zugang wird von für den Bereich zuständigen Personen überwacht.
MISE EN GARDE: Tous les dispositifs avec bloc d'alimentation C.C. sont conçus pour l'installation dans des
zones à accès réglementé uniquement. Une zone à accès réglementé est une zone dont l'accès n'est possible qu'au personnel de service utilisant un verrou, une clé ou un outil spécial, ou d'autres moyens de sécurité, et qui est contrôlée par les autorités responsables du site.
PRECAUCIÓN: Todos los instrumentos con suministros de corriente continua han sido diseñados

Cautions and Warnings
CAUTION: 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 when upside down. The power supply is right-side up when the power connector is on the left and the fan vent is on the right.
VORSICHT: Sicher Sie sicher, dass Sie das Netzteil mit der richtigen Seite nach oben weisend
einstecken. Man kann die Karte auch umgekehrt einstecken. Allerdings rastet das umgekehrte Netzteil nicht in die Netzstrom-Rückwandplatine ein. Die rechte Seite des Netzteils weist nach oben, wenn sich der Stromanschlussstecker links und der Ventilatorschlitz rechts befindet.
MISE EN GARDE: Assurez-vous d'insérer le bloc d'alimentation dans le bon sens. Il est possible de l'insérer " la
tête en bas ", mais le bloc d'alimentation ne s'enclenchera pas dans la face arrière d'alimentation s'il est inséré à l'envers. Le bloc d'alimentation est dans le bon sens lorsque le connecteur se trouve sur le côté gauche et le ventilateur sur la droite.
PRECAUCIÓN: Verifique que inserta el suministro de corriente con la cara correcta hacia arriba. Es posible
insertar el suministro hacia abajo, pese a que este no se conectará con el enchufe posterior de esta forma. El suministro de potencia estará con la cara correcta hacia arriba cuando el conector de corriente quede a la izquierda y la abertura del ventilador queda a la derecha.
CAUTION: 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 startup-config file.
VORSICHT: Verwenden Sie den Befehl "Erase startup-config" (Löschen Startup-Konfig) nur für neue
Systeme. Wenn Sie diesen Befehl in ein bereits konfiguriertes System eingeben, löscht der Befehl die Konfiguration. Falls Sie aus Versehen die Konfiguration eines bereits konfigurierten Systems löschen, geben Sie den Befehl "Write Memory" (Speicher schreiben) ein, um die laufende Konfiguration in der Startup-Konfig-Datei zu speichern.
MISE EN GARDE: N'utilisez la commande erase startup-config que pour les nouveaux systèmes. Si vous entrez
cette commande sur un système que vous avez déjà configuré, elle efface la configuration. Si vous effacez la configuration par accident sur un système configuré, entrez la commande write memory pour enregistrer la configuration actuelle dans le fichier startup-config.
PRECAUCIÓN: Use el comando erase startup-config (borrar configuración de inicio) para sistemas nuevos
solamente. Si usted introduce este comando en un sistema que ya ha configurado, el comando borrará la configuración. Si usted borra accidentalmente la configuración en un sistema ya configurado, introduzca el comando write memory (escribir memoria) para guardar la configuración en ejecución en el archivo startup-config.
CAUTION: Never leave tools inside the chassis.
VORSICHT: Lassen Sie keine Werkzeuge im Chassis zurück.
MISE EN GARDE: Ne laissez jamais d'outils à l'intérieur du châssis.
PRECAUCIÓN: No deje nunca herramientas en el interior del chasis.

CAUTION: If you do not install a module in a slot, you must keep the slot panel in place. If you run the
chassis with an uncovered slot, the system will overheat.
VORSICHT: Falls kein Modul im Steckplatz installiert wird, muss die Steckplatztafel angebracht werden.
Wenn ein Steckplatz nicht abgedeckt wird, läuft das System heiß.
MISE EN GARDE: Si vous n’installez pas de module dans un slot, vous devez laisser le panneau du slot en
place. Si vous faites fonctionner le châssis avec un slot découvert, le système surchauffera.
PRECAUCIÓN: Si no instala un módulo en la ranura, deberá mantener el panel de ranuras en su lugar. Si
pone en funcionamiento el chasis con una ranura descubierta, el sistema sufrirá sobrecalentamiento.
