Preparing for installation

Safety recommendations

To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury, read the following safety recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.

• Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch with wet

cloth or liquid.

• Do not place the switch near water or in a damp environment. Prevent water or moisture from

entering the switch chassis.

• Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk. The switch might be severely damaged in case

of a fall.

• Ensure good ventilation of the equipment room and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the switch

free of obstruction.

• Connect the yellow-green protection grounding cable before power-on.

• Make sure the operating voltage is in the required range.

• To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the switch

is just powered off.

• When replacing FRUs, including interface cards and power modules, wear an ESD wrist strap to

avoid damaging the units.

Examining the installation site

The S5500-HI switches must be used indoors. You can mount your switch in a rack or on a workbench, but make sure:

• Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and exhaust vents for ventilation.

• The rack or workbench has a good ventilation system.

• Identify the hot aisle and cold aisle at the installation site, and make sure ambient air flows into the

switch from the cold aisle and exhausts to the hot aisle.

• Identify the airflow designs of neighboring devices, and prevent hot air flowing out of the bottom

device from entering the top device.

• The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories.

• The rack or workbench is correctly grounded.

To ensure normal operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an environment that meets the requirements described in the following subsections.

Temperature/humidity

Maintain appropriate temperature and humidity in the equipment room.

Page 11

• Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical property

change of materials, and metal corrosion.

• Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and bring problems including

loose captive screws and circuit failure.

• High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the

reliability and lifespan of the switch.

For the temperature and humidity requirements, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical

spec

ifications."

Cleanness

Dust buildup on the chassis might result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of metal components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.

Table 1 Dust concentration limit in the equipment room

Substance Concentration limit (particles/m³)

Dust

≤ 3 x 104 (no visible dust on the tabletop over three days)

NOTE:

Dust diameter ≥ 5 μm

The equipment room must also meet limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion and premature aging of components, as shown in Table 2.

Table 2 Harmful gas li

mits in the equipment room

Gas Maximum concentration (mg/m

)

0.2

H2S 0.006

NH3 0.05

Cl2 0.01

EMI

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) might be coupled from the source to the switch through the following coupling mechanisms:

• Capacitive coupling

• Inductive coupling

• Radiative coupling

• Common impedance coupling

• Conductive coupling

To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

Page 12

• If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) to

filter interference from the power grid.

• Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency

devices.

• Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.

• Route interface cables only indoors to prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or

overcurrent caused by lightning strikes.

Laser safety

ARNING!

Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The laser li

ht emitted from the optical fiber

might hurt your eyes.

The S5500-HI switches are Class 1 laser devices.

Page 13

Installing the switch

CAUTION:

Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mountin

screw on the chassis cover intact, and if you want to open the

chassis, contact H3C for permission. Otherwise, H3C shall not be liable for any consequence.

Page 14

NOTE:

Only the S5500-28SC-HI and S5500-52SC-HI need a fan tray.

Installing the switch in a 19-inch rack

You can install an S5500-HI switch in a 19-inch rack by using one of the following methods:

• Use the front mounting brackets. Figure 2 sh

ows the mounting procedure diagram.

• Use the front and rear mounting brackets. Figure 3 sh

ows the mounting procedure diagram.

• Use the front mounting brackets and mounting rail assemblies. Figure 4 sh

ows the mounting

procedure diagram.

NOTE:

If a rack shelf is available, you can put the switch on the rack shelf, slide the switch to an appropriate position, and attach the switch to the rack with mounting brackets.

Grounding the switch

ARNING!

Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.

The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this chassis ground to the earth so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the earth to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.

You can ground the switch in one of the following ways, depending on the grounding conditions available at the installation site:

• Grounding the switch with a grounding strip

• Grounding the switch with a grounding conductor buried in the earth ground

• Grounding the switch by using the AC power cord

NOTE:

The power and grounding terminals in this section are for illustration only.

Grounding the switch with a grounding strip

ARNING!

Connect the

rounding cable to the grounding system in the equipment room. Do not connect it to a fire

main or lightning rod.

If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, connect the grounding cable to the grounding strip.

Page 29

(3) Grounding cable

(4) Earth (5) Joint (6) Grounding conductor

Grounding the switch by using the AC power cord

If the installation site has no grounding strips or earth ground, you ground an AC-powered switch through the PE wire of the power cord. Make sure:

• The power cord has a PE terminal.

• The ground contact in the power outlet is securely connected to the ground in the power distribution

room or on the AC transformer side.

IRF fabric setup flowchart

Figure 56 IRF fabric setup flowchart

To set up an IRF fabric:

Step Description

1. Plan IRF fabric setup

Plan the installation site and IRF fabric setup parameters:

• Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site

• Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs

• Planning IRF topology and connections

• Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches

• Planning the cabling scheme

2. Install IRF member switches

See "Installing the switch in a 19-inch rack"or "Mounting the switch

on a workbenc

h."

3. Install the grounding cable, fan

tray, power modules, and power cords

See "Grounding the switch," "Installing/removing a fan tray," "Installing/removing a power module," and "Connecting the power

cord."

Page 52

Step Description

4. Power on the switches

N/A

5. (Optional) Install an expansion

interface card

See "Installing/removing an interface card."

6. Configure basic IRF settings

See H3C S5500-HI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide.

7. Connect the physical IRF ports

Connect the physical IRF ports on the switches.

Select appropriate cables according to physical IRF port types.

All switches except the master switch automatically reboot, and the IRF fabric is established.

Planning IRF fabric setup

This section describes issues that an IRF fabric setup plan must cover.

Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site

Identify the number of required IRF member switches, depending on the user density and upstream bandwidth requirements. The switching capacity of an IRF fabric equals the total switching capacities of all member switches.

Plan the installation site depending on your network solution, as follows:

• Place all IRF member switches in one rack for centralized high-density access.

• Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks for dispersed access.

NOTE:

n S5500-HI IRF fabric can have up to nine switches. As your business grows, you can plug an S5500-HI

switch into an IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement.

Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs

Determine which switch you want to us e as the master for manag ing all member switches in the IRF fa bric. An IRF fabric has only one master switch. You configure and manage all member switches in the IRF fabric at the command line interface of the master switch.

NOTE:

IRF member switches will automatically elect a master. You can affect the election result by assigning a high member priority to the intended master switch. For more information about master election, see

S5500-HI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide

Prepare an IRF member ID assignment scheme. An IRF fabric uses member IDs to uniquely identify and manage its members, and you must assign each IRF member switch a unique member ID.

Page 53

Planning IRF topology and connections

You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology, or more reliably, ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology. Rather, the IRF fabric changes to a daisy chain topology without interrupting network services.

You connect the IRF member switches through IRF ports, the logical interfaces for the connections between IRF member switches. Each IRF member switch has two IRF ports: IRF-port 1 and IRF-port 2. To use an IRF port, you must bind at least one physical port to it.

When connecting two neighboring IRF member switches, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1 on one switch to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other switch.

The S5500-HI switches can provide 10-GE IRF connections through the SFP+ ports on the front panel and the 10G interface card at the rear of the chassis, and you can bind several 10G ports to an IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability.

NOTE:

• Figure 57 and

Figure 58 show the topologies for an IRF fabric made up of three S5500-34C-HI

switches that have two 2-port 10 GE SFP+ interface cards for IRF connections.

• The IRF port connections in the two fi

ures are for illustration only, and more connection methods are

available.

• For information about the physical ports available for IRF connections on different S5500-HI switches,

see Table 6.

Figure 57 IRF fabric in daisy chain topology

Page 54

Figure 58 IRF fabric in ring topology

Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches

Identify the physical IRF ports on the member switches according to your topology and connection scheme.

To set up IRF connection, you can use the two SFP+ ports on the front panel and the 10-Gigabit ports on the expansion interface card. For more information about interface cards, see "Appendix B FRUs and

mpatibility matrixes."

Table 6 shows the physical ports that can be used for IRF connection for different switch models.

Table 6 Physical IRF port requirements for different switch models

Switch model Requirements

S5500-34C-HI

S5500-34F-HI

S5500-34C-PWR-HI

S5500-28SC-HI

The two SFP+ ports on the front panel and 10-Gigabit ports on the expansion interface card can be bound to any IRF port.

S5500-58C-HI

S5500-58C-PWR-HI

• Physical ports on the same interface card can only be bound to the same IRF

port.

• SFP+ port numbered 53 on the front panel can only be bound to th e s a m e IRF

port as physical ports on the interface card in slot 2.

• SFP+ por t numb e red 54 on the fro n t panel can only b e bound to the same I R F

port as physical ports on the interface card in slot 1.

S5500-52SC-HI

• The SFP+ ports (numbered 51 and 52) on the front panel must be bound to

different IRF ports. For example, if you bind SFP+ port 51 to IRF port 1, you must bind SFP+ port 52 to IRF port 2.

• If a two-port interface card is used, you can bind port 1 on the card and SFP+

port 51 into one aggregate IRF link, and port 2 on the card and SFP+ port 52 into the other aggregate IRF link.

• If a one-port interface card is used, you can bind the port on the card and

SFP+ port 51 into one aggregate IRF link.

Page 55

Planning the cabling scheme

Select appropriate cables to connect physical IRF ports:

• Use XFP transceiver modules and fibers to connect XFP ports.

• Use SFP+ transceiver modules and fibers to connect SFP+ ports over a long distance, and use SFP+

cables over a short distance.

• Use CX4 cables to connect CX4 ports.

• Use category 6 or above twisted pair cables to connect 1/10GBase-T Ethernet ports.

If the IRF member switches are far away from one another, choose the SFP+/XFP transceiver modules with optical fibers. If the IRF member switches are all in one equipment room, choose CX4/SFP+ cables or twisted pair cables.

For the transceiver modules and cables available for IRF connections, see "10 Gbps SFP+ transceiver

modu

les/SFP+ cables," "10 Gbps XFP transceiver modules," and "CX4 cables".

The following subsections describe several H3C recommended IRF connection schemes, and all these schemes use a ring topology.

IMPORTANT:

In these schemes, all physical IRF ports are located on the same side. If physical IRF ports are on differen

sides, you must measure the distance between them to select an appropriate cable.

Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack

Use CX4/SFP+ cables or twisted pair cables to connect the IRF member switches (nine switches in this example) in a rack as shown in Figure 59. T

he switches in the ring topology (see Figure 60) are in the

same order as connected in the rack.

Page 56

Figure 59 Connecting the switches in the same rack

Figure 60 IRF fabric topology

Page 57

Connecting the IRF member switches in a ToR solution

You can install IRF member switches in different racks side by side to deploy a top of rack (ToR) solution. Figure 61

shows an example for connecting nine top of rack IRF member switches by using SFP+

transceiver modules and optical fibers. The topology is the same as Figure 60.

Figure 61 Connecting top of rack switches

Configuring basic IRF settings

After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member switch (see H3C S5500-HI Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings.

Follow these guidelines when you configure the switches:

• Assign the master switch higher member priority than any other switch.

• Bind physical ports to IRF port 1 on one switch and to IRF port 2 on the other switch.

• To bind the ports on an interface card to an IRF port, you must install the interface card first. For how

to install an interface card, see "Installing/removing an inter

face card."

• Execute the display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings.

For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see H3C S5500-HI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide.

Connecting the physical IRF ports

Use correct cables to connect the IRF member switches as planned.

NOTE:

ear an ESD wrist strap when you connect CX4/SFP+ cables or SFP+/XFP transceiver modules and

fibers. For how to connect them, see

H3C Pluggable SFP/SFP+/XFP Transceiver Modules Installation

Guide

and "Installing/removing a CX4/SFP+ cable."

Accessing the IRF fabric to verify the configuration

To verify the basic functionality of the IRF fabric after you finish configuring basic IRF settings and connecting IRF ports:

1. Log in to the IRF fabric through the console port of any member switch.

2. Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote

network management station can reach each other.

Page 58

3. Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See

H3C S5500-HI Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.)

4. Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.

5. Display the running status of the IRF fabric by using the commands in Table 7.

To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure at least one multi-active detection (MAD) mechanism to detect the presence of multiple identical IRF fabrics and handle collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see

H3C S5500-HI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide

Page 59

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Power module failure

Look at the PWR1 or PWR2 LED of the switch to identify a power module failure. For more information about the PWR1 and PWR2 LEDs on the front panel of the switch, see "Appendix C Ports and LEDs."

If the po

wer module system is correctly operating, the power module status LEDs are steady green. If the

LEDs behave in any other way, verify the following items:

• The switch power cord is correctly connected.

• The power source meets the requirement.

• The operating temperature of the switch is in the normal range and the power module has good

ventilation.

NOTE:

If the problem persists, contact H3C for help.

To replace a hot swappable power module, see "Installing/removing a power module."

Fan failure

CAUTION:

For the S5500-28SC-HI and S5500-52SC-HI switches, you can replace the fan tray without powerin

off

the switch. To prevent overheating, replace the failed fan tray within 2 minutes.

You can look at the system status LED and the seven-segment LED of an S5500 -HI switch to identify a fan failure. If both LEDs are behaving as described in Table 8, a f

an failure occurs.

Table 8 LED behaviors that identify a fan failure

LED Mark State

System status LED SYS Steady red

Seven-segment LED Unit

The LED displays a flashing F character.

The S5500-34C-HI, S5500-34F-HI, S5500-34C-PWR-HI, S5500-58C-HI, and S5500-58C-PWR-HI switches use built-in fan trays. If a fan failure occurs, promptly contact H3C for help.

The S5500-28SC-HI and S5500-52SC-HI switches use hot swappable fan trays. When the fan tray fails, use the display fan command to verify that the expected airflow direction is the same as the airflow direction of the fan tray. If not, use the fan prefer-direction command to modify the configuration.

If the problem still exists, the fan tray might have failed. You can replace the fan tray as described in "Installing/removing a fan tray."

Page 60

Configuration terminal problems

If the configuration environment setup is correct, the configuration terminal displays booting information when the switch is powered on. If the setup is incorrect, the configuration terminal displays nothing or garbled text.

No terminal display

If the configuration terminal displays nothing when the switch is powered on, verify the following items:

• The power module is supplying power to the switch.

• The console cable is correctly connected.

• The console cable has no problem and the terminal settings are correct.

Garbled terminal display

If terminal display is garbled, verify that the following settings are configured for the terminal, for example, HyperTerminal:

• Baud rate—9,600

• Data bits—8

• Parity—none

• Stop bits—1

• Flow control—none

• Emulation—VT100

Cooling system

The cooling system of the S5500-HI switch comprises the air vents in the chassis, built-in fans, and built-in fans of power modules. To guarantee the performance of this cooling system, you must consider the ventilation design for the installation site when you plan the installation site for the S5500-HI switch.

Cooling system of the S5500-28SC-HI and S5500-52SC-HI

The fan trays available for the S5500-28SC-HI and S5500-52SC-HI switches include LSPM1FAN and LSPM1FANB.

IMPORTANT:

The chassis and the power modules use separate air aisles. Make sure both aisles are not blocked.

• When an LSPM1FAN fan tray is used, ambient air flows in through the air vents in the fan tray panel

and the power module panels, circulates through the chassis and the power modules, and exhausts at the port side.

• When an LSPM1FANB fan tray is used, ambient air flows in through the air vents in the port-side

panel and the power module panels, circulates through the chassis and the power modules, and exhausts through the air vents in the fan tray panel.

Cooling system of the other models in the switch series

The S5500-HI switch uses built-in fans and left-right aisles for air ventilation. Ambient air flows in through the air vents at the left side of chassis (the direction subject to the user facing the front panel of the chassis), circulates through the chassis and the power modules, and exhausts at the right side of the chassis and the air outlet vents of the power modules. The chassis and power modules use independent aisles, which must be kept clear when the switch is operating.

For different switch models, design the cooling system as follows:

Page 73

S5500-34C-HI

S5500-58C-HI

The PSR360-56A, PSR720-56A, PSR1110-56A, PSR150-A1, and PSR150-D1 support asset management, but the PSR150-A and PSR150-D do not. If you install a power module supporting asset management, you can use the display device manuinfo command to view the device name, sequence number, MAC address, and vendor of the power module.

For the S5500-34C-HI, S5500-58C-HI, S5500-34F-HI, S5500-28SC-HI, or S5500-52SC-HI switch, one power module can satisfy the normal operation of the switch, and two power modules can implement 1 + 1 redundant backup. You can install one AC power module and one DC power module at the same time.

For the S5500-34C-PWR-HI or S5500-58C-PWR-HI switch, you can install one power module, or for redundancy, two power modules. Different power module configurations have different PoE power capacities. For more information, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications."
