Chapter 2 Installation Preparation

2.1 Safety Precautions

To avoid any device impairment and bodily injury caused by improper use, observe these rules:
z Before cleaning the switch, unplug the power plug of the switch first. Do not clean
the switch with wet cloth or liquid.
z Do not place the switch near water or any damp area. Prevent water or moisture
from entering the switch chassis.
z Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk. The switch might be
damaged severely in case of a fall.
z Ensure proper ventilation of the equipment room and keep the ventilation vents of
the switch free of obstruction.
z Make sure that the operating voltage is the same one labeled on the switch. z Do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when electrical hazards
are present to avoid electrical shocks.
z When replacing interface cards, wear ESD-protective gloves to avoid damaging
the cards.

2.2 Installation Site

The S3610 series must be used indoors. You can mount your switch in a rack or on a tabletop/workbench, but make sure:
z Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet/exhaust vents for ventilation. z The rack or table/workbench has a good ventilation system. z The rack is sturdy enough to support the device and its accessories. z The rack or table/workbench is well earthed.
To ensure normal operation and long service life of your VG , install i t in an environment that meets the requirements described in the following subsections.
2.2.1 Temperature/Humidity
You must maintain a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Refer to Table 1-11. Long-term high humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property changes, and corrosion. However, if the relative humidity is two low, captive screws may become loose as the result of contraction of insulation washers and static electricity may be produced in a dry environment to jeopardize the CMOS circuits on the device. High temperature is the most undesirable condition,
2-1
Installation Manual H3C S3610 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 Installation Preparation
because it accelerates aging of insulation materials and can thus significantly lower reliability and service life of your switch.
2.2.2 Cleanness
Dust is a hazard to the operating safety of your device. The dust accumulated on the chassis can be adsorbed by static electricity and result in poor contact of metal connectors or metal contact points. This can not only shorten the service life of your device but also cause communications failures. When the relative indoor humidity is low, electrostatic adsorption is more likely to happen. The contents of the dust must be limited as shown in the following table:
Table 2-1 Dust content limits in an equipment room
Substance Unit Content
3 × 10
Dust Particles/m³
(No visible dust on the tabletop for three days)
4
Remark: the diameter of a dust particle 5 μm
Besides dust, there are rigorous limits on the harmful gases that can accelerate the erosion and aging of metals, such as salts, acids, and sulfides, as shown in the following table.
Table 2-2 Harmful gas limits in the equipment room
Gas Maximum (mg/m3)
SO2 0.2 H2S 0.006 NH3 0.05 Cl2 0.01
2.2.3 Electromagnetic Susceptibility
The operation of your switch can be affected by external interferences, such as conducted emission by capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, electromagnetic wave radiation, and common impedance (including the grounding system) coupling, and leads (power cords, signaling cables and output wires. To eliminate the interferences, make sure to:
z For the AC power supply that adopts TN system, use a monophase three-line
power socket with Protection Earth (PE) to effectively filter interference from the power grid.
2-2
Installation Manual H3C S3610 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 2 Installation Preparation
z Keep the device far from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and
high-frequency devices.
z Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary, for example, use shielded
interface cables.
z Route interface cables only indoors to prevent signal ports from getting damaged
by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning strikes.
2.2.4 Laser Safety
The S3610 series are class-1 laser devices. When the optical ports on your switch are operating, do not stare into the optical ports
because the laser light emitted by the optical fiber can hurt your retina.
Caution:
Staring into the laser beam produced by the fiber can hurt your eyes.

2.3 Installation Tools

z Flat-blade screwdriver z Phillips screwdriver z ESD-preventive wrist strap
Caution:
The installation tools are not provided with the S3610 series.

Installation Manual H3C S3610 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 3 Installing the Switch

Chapter 3 Installing the Switch

Caution:
When you ask your sales agent to maintain the switch, you must ensure that the H3C dismantlement-preventive seal on a mounting screw of the switch chassis is intact. If you want to open the chassis, you should contact the agent for permission. Otherwise, you will bear any consequence resulted from your actions without permission.

3.1 Installing a Switch

3.1.1 Mounting a Switch to a Cabinet
You can install a switch into a 19-inch standard cabinet in one of the following three ways:
z Use front mounting ears z Use front mounting ears and a tray z Use front mounting ears and guide rails
Note:
z The front mounting ears are provided in the standard package, while trays and
guide rails are optional parts that you need to order as needed.
z When the switch is more than 300 mm (11.81 in.) in width, the front mounting ears
are not used for bearing but for fixing only.
z When installing devices, ensure a clearance of 1U (44.45 mm, namely, 1.75 inches)
between devices for heat dissipation.
z The guide rails provided by H3C are suitable for H3C 1000 mm (39.37 in.) standard
cabinets only. If the depth of your cabinet does not fit, use other supports to replace the guide rails.

Installation Manual H3C S3610 Series Ethernet Switches Chapter 5 Loading Boot ROM and Host Software

Chapter 5 Loading Boot ROM and Host Software

Switch software loading through serial ports in the past is time consuming and cannot be operated remotely. To address these problems, TFTP and FTP are used to allow software and file downloading through Ethernet ports. The following subsections describe how to load software and files in these two approaches.

5.1 Introduction to Loading Approaches

To load software remotely, use FTP or TFTP. To load software at the local, use XMODEM at the console port or TFTP/FTP at an
Ethernet port.
Note:
Ensure that the Boot ROM and host software versions that you download can work with each other.

5.2 Loading Software Locally

If your terminal is directly connected to the switch, you can load Boot ROM and host software locally. But before that, make sure they are correctly connected.
Note:
The steps that you should take to load Boot ROM program and host software are the same, except that during Boot ROM program loading you need to press <Ctrl +U> after accessing the Boot ROM menu and will view different prompt information. Boot ROM loading procedures are described below for example.

5.2.2 Loading Software from Console Port Using XMODEM
I. Introduction to XMODEM
XMODEM is a file transfer protocol widely used for its simplicity and good performance. XMODEM transfers files through the console port, supporting dat a packets of 128 bytes and 1 KB. With respect to reliability, it supports checksum, CRC, and the error packet retransmission mechanism. Normally, the maximum number of retransmission attempts is ten.
XMODEM transfer is completed by receiving and sending programs together. Receiving program initiates packet checking method negotiation by sending the negotiation character. If negotiation p asses, the sending program start s packet transfer . Upon receipt of a complete packet, the receiving program checks it using the agreed-upon check method. If the check succeeds, the receiving program sends an acknowledgement character; if the check fails, it sends a reject character. Upon receipt of the acknowledgement, the sending program continues to send the next packet; upon receipt of the reject, it retransmits the packet.

6.1 Dealing with Loading Failures

If software loading fails, the system operates with the original version. To address the failure cause, take these steps:
Check that the physical ports are correctly and securely connected. If they are not, reconnect them correctly and restart loading.
Check information about the loading procedures for input errors on the HyperTerminal.
z If XMODEM is used, check that you have reset the baud rate of the HyperTerminal
to 9600 bps after loading the software with another baud rate.
z If TFTP is used, check that you have correctly specified the TFTP parameters:
server and switch IP addresses; name of the software to be loaded; and path for the TFTP server to operate on program files.
z If FTP is used, check that you have correctly specified the FTP parameters: server
and switch IP addresses; name of the software to be loaded; and username and password.
Contact your sales agent for help if you cannot address the problem after taking the preceding two steps.

z The switch power cord is correctly connected. z The power source can work with the switch.

6.4 Dealing with Configuration System Failures

If the switch is operating normally after it is powered up, it displays the start-up information on the console terminal. If the configuration system has failed, it displays illegible characters or nothing at all.
I. No information on the terminal
Take these steps to address the problem:
Check that:
z The power system is operating normally. z The console cable is connected correctly.
Check that the console cable is in good condition and the terminal (HyperTerminal for example) parameter settings are correct.
II. Illegible characters on the terminal
Make sure you have set on your terminal (HyperTerminal): Baud rate = 9600 Data bits = 8 Parity check = none Stop bits = 1 Flow control = none Terminal emulation = VT100 Reconfigure the parameters if their values are differe nt.

Appendix A Lightning Protection of the Switch

A.1 Installation of Lightning Arrester for AC Power (Socket Strip with Lightning Protection)

Caution:
Lightning arrester will not be shipped with the switch. You should purchase it by yourself if needed.
If an outdoor AC power cord should be directly led to the switch, please serially connect the lightning arrester for AC power (Socket Strip with Lightning Protection) before you plug AC power cord into the switch, thus to prevent the possible damage to the switch due to lightning strike. You can use cable clips and screws to fasten the lightning arrester for AC po wer on the cabinet, workbench or the wall of equipment room.
Grounding and polarity indicator (red) : On means that the lines are wrongly connected (either the ground wire is not well connected, or the live and zero lines are wrongly connected). Please check the power supply circuit.
Normal operation indicator (green): On means that the arrester works normally. Otherwise, it means that the protection circuit has been damaged.

Caution:
z Make sure that the arrester is well grounded before using the lightning arrester for
power.
z After inserting AC power cord plug of switch into the socket of lightning arrester, if
the green LED is on and the red LED does not alarm, it means that the lightning arrester of power is running and the function of lightning protection has taken effect.
z Pay adequate attention if the red LED is on. You should correctly locate the probl em,
whether it is caused because the ground wire of the arrester is not well grounded or because the live and zero wires are connected in reverse direction. You may check that in the following way. When the red LED is on, use a multimeter to examine polarity at the power socket of the arrester. If it is same to that of the power socket in the equipment room, it means that arrester is not well grounded. If it is adverse to that of the power socket in the equipment room, it means that the power socket of the arrester is set to the reverse polarity. In this case, you should open the power socket of arrester to correct polarity. After that, if the red LED still alarms, it means that the arrester is not well grounded yet.

A.2 Installation of Lightning Arrester for Network Port

Note:
Lightning arrester for network port is specially designed for the Ethernet port of 10/100M electrical interface (RJ-45 connector is adopted in this case).
Caution:
Lightning arrester for network port will not be provided along with the switch, and you should purchase it by yourself if needed.
If an outdoor network cable should be led to the switch, please serially connect the lightning arrester for network port before you plug this cable into the interface on the switch, in case of the possibility that the switch may be damaged due to lightning strike.
I. Required tools
z Phillips screwdriver or Flat-blade screwdriver

II. Installation procedure
Step 1: Tear the protection paper at one side of the double faced adhesive tape apart from the tape, and stick the tape on the surface of the arrester. Tear the protection paper at another side apart from the t ape, and stick the arrester onto the chassis of the switch. The arrester should be attached on the chassi s as close to the grounding screw as possible.
Step 2: According to the distance to the grounding screw of the switch, cut the ground wire of the arrester, and securely tightening its ground wire to the grounding screw of the switch.
Step 3: Use the multimeter to measure whether the g round wire of the arrester contact s well with the grounding screw of chassis.
Step 4: According to the instruction of arrester for network port, connect the arrester with switch by the cables (be carefully with the cable direction. Outdoor network cable should be inserted into the arrester‘s IN end, and the cable connected to the switch should be inserted into the arrester’s OUT end). When you do that, observe whether the arrester indicators normally display.
Note:
The instruction of lightning arrester for network port contains the technical specifications, installation and maintenance guide of the arrester. Please carefully read it before installing the arrester.
Step 5: Use the nylon ties to bundle the cables neatly.

III. Installation precautions
Fully consider the following items in the installation process, otherwise, the performance of the lightning arrester for network port will be affected:
z Lightning arrester for network port is installed in reverse direction. In practice, the
“IN” end should be connected to the outdoor network cable and the “OUT” end to the network port on the switch.
z Lightning arrester for the network port is not well grounded. The ground wire for
the arrester should be as short as possible, so to ensure its good contact with the grounding screw of the switch. After the connection, use the multimeter to confirm that.
The lightning arrester for the network port is not installed completely. If the switch has more than one network ports to interconnect with other devices via cables outdo or, you should install lightning arresters for all these network ports for protection.
