• Checklist before installation

Safety recommendations

Safety symbols

When reading this document, note the following symbols:

WARNING means an alert that calls attention to important information that if not understood or

followed can result in personal injury.

CAUTION means an alert that calls attention to important information that if not understood or

followed can result in data loss, data corruption, or damage to hardware or software.

General safety recommendations

• Keep the chassis and installation tools away from walk areas.

• Make sure that the ground is dry and flat and anti-slip measures are in place.

• Unplug all the external cables (including power cords) before moving the chassis.

Safety with electricity

• Locate the emergency power-off switch in the room before installation. Shut the power off at once in

case accident occurs.

• Make sure that the router has been correctly grounded.

• Do not open or close the chassis cover when the router is powered on.

• Use an uninterrupted power supply (UPS).

• If there are two power inputs, disconnect the two power inputs to power off the router.

• Do not work alone when the router has power.

• Always check that the power has been disconnected.

Safety with laser

The H3C SR6604 and SR6608 routers are a line of class 1 laser products.

Page 24

WARNING!

The laser inside the optical fiber may hurt your eyes.

Safety with router moving

When moving an H3C SR6604 or SR6608 router, perform the following steps:

• When moving the router, hold the handles at both sides of the chassis.

• Use at least two persons to move the router.

• Move the router carefully.

CAUTION:

Do not hold the handle of the fan tray or power supply, the handle of the rear cover of the chassis, or the air vents of chassis. Any attempt to carry the router with these parts may cause equipment dama

e or even

bodily injury.

Examining the installation site

The H3C SR6604 and SR6608 routers can only be used indoors. To ensure that the router works properly and to prolong its service lifetime, the installation site must meet the following requirements:

• Temperature and humidity

• Cleanness

• EMI

Temperature and humidity

You must maintain a proper temperature and humidity in the equipment room. Long-term high humidity may lead to bad insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property changes, and metal corrosion. However, if the relative humidity is too 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 circuits on the device. A high temperature is the most undesirable condition, because it accelerates the aging of insulation materials and significantly lowers reliability and service life of the router.

For the temperature and humidity requirements of the router, see Table 5 and Table 6.

Cleanness

Dust buildup on the chassis may 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.

Cooling system

The H3C SR6604 and SR6608 routers adopt left to right airflow for heat dissipation.

Page 26

Figure 19 SR6604/SR6608 airflow

• Make sure there is enough space (greater than 10 cm (3.94 in)) around the air intake and outlet

vents on the router for good ventilation.

• Make sure the installation site has a good cooling system.

ESD prevention

To prevent electrostatic discharge (ESD), note the following guidelines:

• Make sure that the router and the floor are well grounded.

• Take dust-proof measures for the equipment room.

• Maintain the humidity and temperature at a proper level.

• Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist strap when touching a circuit board or transceiver module.

• Place the removed memory module, CF card, or HIM/MIM on an antistatic workbench, with the

face upward, or put it into an antistatic bag.

• Touch only the edges, instead of electronic components when observing or moving a removed

memory module, CF card, or HIM/MIM.

To use the ESD-preventive wrist strap, perform the following steps:

Step1 Wear the wrist strap on your wrist. Step2 Lock the wrist strap tight around your wrist to keep good contact with the skin. Step3 Insert the ESD-preventive wrist strap into the specially designed hole on the router chassis or attach it to

the grounding screw of the chassis with the alligator clips.

Step4 Make sure that the rack is well grounded.

CAUTION:

Check the resistance of the ESD-preventive wrist strap for safety. The resistance readin

should be in the

range of 1 to 10 megohm (Mohm) between human body and the ground.

EMI

All electromagnetic interference (EMI) sources, from outside or inside of the router and application system, adversely affect the router in a conduction pattern of capacitance coupling, inductance coupling, electromagnetic wave radiation, or common impedance (including grounding system) coupling. To prevent EMI, perform the following steps:

• Take measures against interference from the power grid.

• Do not use the router together with the grounding equipment or light-prevention equipment of

power equipment, and keep the router far away from them.

• Keep the router far away from high-power radio launchers, radars, and equipment with high

frequency or high current.

NOTE:

Use electromagnetic shielding when necessary.

Lightning protection

To protect the router from lightning better, do as follows:

• Make sure the grounding cable of the chassis is well grounded.

Page 28

• Make sure the grounding terminal of the AC power receptacle is well grounded.

• Install a lightning arrester at the input end of the power supply to enhance the lightning protection

capability of the power supply.

• Install a special lightning arrester at the input end of outdoor signal lines (for example, E1/T1 line)

to which interface modules of the router are connected to enhance the lightning protection capability.

Rack-mounting

Before mounting the router in a standard 19-inch rack, adhere to the following requirements:

• Install the router to a rack that has rack shelves.

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

• For heat dissipation and device maintenance, make sure the front and rear of the rack should be at

least 0.8 m (2.62 ft) away from walls or other devices, and that the headroom in the equipment room should be no less than 3 m (9.84 ft).

Before connecting an outdoor Ethernet cable to an Ethernet port, install a port lightning arrester to protect the router against lightning strokes.

The following port lightning arrester can be installed on the SR6604 or SR6608. The specifications for the port lightning arrester are as follows:

• Port protective unit: Single port

• Maximum discharge current (8/20s waveform): 5 kA

• Output voltage (10/700s waveform): Core-core < 40 V, core-ground < 600 V.

Installation tools

• Phillips or flat-blade screwdriver

• Multimeter

• Diagonal pliers

Installation procedures

Follow these steps to install a port lightning arrestor:

Step1 Use a double-faced adhesive tape to stick the port lightning arrester to the router. The port lightning

arrester should be as close to the grounding screw as possible.

Page 52

Step2 Cut short the grounding cable of the port lightning arrester according to its distance to the grounding

screw. Then, fix the grounding cable onto the grounding screw of the router.

Step3 Use a multimeter to check the connection between the grounding cable of the port lightning arrester and

the grounding screw of the router.

Step4 Follow the instructions to connect the port lightning arrester with a transit cable. The external cable

should be connected to the IN end and the transit cable to the OUT end. Check whether the LED on the interface module is normal.

NOTE:

Read the instructions carefully before installing the port lightning arrester.

Step5 Bundle the cables with a cable tie.

Figure 49 Install a port lightning arrester

(1) Port lightning arrester (2) Grounding cable

Precautions

The performance of the port lightning arrester may be affected in the following cases:

• The IN and OUT ends of the port lightning arrester are connected incorrectly.

The IN end should be connected to the external cable, and the OUT end to the Ethernet port of the router.

• The port lightning arrester is not well grounded. Make sure that the grounding cable of the port

lightning arrester should be as short as possible and be well connected to the grounding screw of the router. Use a multimeter to check the connection between the port lightening arrester and the grounding screw.

• The installed port lightning arresters are not sufficient. When more than one outdoor Ethernet cable

is connected to the router, install a port lightning arrester for each outdoor Ethernet cable.

Page 53

Installing a power lightning arrester (lightning protection busbar)

Before connecting an outdoor AC power supply to the router, install a lightning protection busbar at the AC power input end and then connect the AC power cord to a lightning protection busbar to protect the router against lightning strokes. You can use cable ties and screws to fasten the lightning protection busbar on the rack, the workbench, or the wall in the equipment room.

Figure 50 Install a power lightning arrester

NNN

(1) Status LED—On means the lightning protection functions properly. Off means the lightning protection has failed.

(2) Grounding and polarity detection LED (red)—On means the grounding cable is not well connected or the live and zero wires are connected reversely. Check the power supply line.

(3) Power switch (4) IEC-compliant power receptacle—Connects to the power source in the equipment room (5) Overload protector—Resets the lightning arrester (6) Multi-purpose power receptacle—Connects to the power supply of the router

Note the following guidelines when installing a power lightning arrester:

1. Make sure that the protection wire (PE) terminal of the power lightning arrester is well grounded

before using it.

2. After the AC power cord of the router is plugged into the multi-purpose power receptacle of the

power lightning arrester (lightning protection busbar), if the green LED is ON and the red LED is OFF, the lightning protection can function properly.

3. If the red LED is ON, check whether the grounding cable is not well connected or the live and zero

wires are connected reversely. You can use a multimeter to examine the polarity at the multi-purpose power receptacle of the power lightning arrester.

• If the live and zero wires are on the left and right respectively (supposing that you are facing the

power receptacle), the PE terminal of the power lightning arrester is not grounded.

Page 54

• If the live and zero wires are on the right and left respectively (supposing that you are facing the

power receptacle), the polarity of the power receptacle of the power lightning arrester is reversed. In this case, open the power receptacle to correct the polarity. If the red LED is still ON, you can be sure that the PE terminal of the power lightning arrester is not grounded.

Installing a signal lightning arrester

Generally, you need to connect a signal lightning arrester (a transient over-voltage protection) before connecting a signal cable to the router. This can protect electronic devices against surge over-voltage resulting from lightning strokes and other interferences, and minimize impact on the router.

The signal lightning arrester is serially connected to a signal cable, so the signal lightning arrester must satisfy the requirements of network performance indexes such as data transmission bandwidth, as well as the lightning protection performance requirement. Before installing a signal lightning arrester, consider such performance indexes of the lightning arrester as lightning protection, bandwidth, transmission loss, and port type.

The SR6604/SR6608 supports the following types of signal lightning arresters:

• Voltage-limiting protection – signal lightning arrester – maximum discharge current

2.5KA/protection voltage 25V--SMB-75J/ SMB-75J-1W-10Mbps

• Voltage-limiting protection – signal lightning arrester – maximum discharge current

2.5KA/protection voltage 25V-BNC-75K/ BNC-75K-10Mbps

• Voltage-limiting protection – signal lightning arrester (U port) - maximum discharge current

3KA/common-mode 400V/differential mode 170V-RJ11

CAUTION:

• The si

nal lightning arrester should be grounded as near as possible. The grounding resistance must be less than 4 ohms. The grounding resistance must be less than 1 ohm if there are special grounding requirements.

• Connect the grounding cable to the special-purpose grounding cable of the signal lightning arrester

and connect it to the earthing network, instead of connecting it to the lightning rod or lightning belt.

Follow these steps to install a signal lightning arrestor:

Step1 Use a double-faced adhesive tape to stick the signal lightning arrester to the router. The signal lightning

arrester should be as close to the grounding screw as possible.

Step2 Cut short the grounding cable of the signal lightning arrester according to its distance to the grounding

screw. Then, fix the grounding cable onto the grounding screw of the router.

Step3 Use a multimeter to check the connection between the grounding cable of the signal lightning arrester

and the grounding screw of the router.

Step4 Follow the instructions to connect the signal lightning arrester with a transit cable. The external cable

should be connected to the IN end and the transit cable to the OUT end. Check whether the LED on the interface module is normal.

NOTE:

Read the instructions carefully before installing the signal lightning arrester.

Bundle the cables with a cable tie.

Page 55

Figure 51 Install a port lightning arrester

Precautions

The performance of the signal lightning arrester may be affected in the following cases:

• The IN and OUT ends of the signal lightning arrester are connected incorrectly.

The IN end should be connected to the external cable, and the OUT end to the Ethernet port of the router.

• The signal lightning arrester is not well grounded. Make sure that the grounding cable of the signal

lightning arrester should be as short as possible and be well connected to the grounding screw of the router. Use a multimeter to check the connection between the signal lightening arrester and the grounding screw.

The installed signal lightning arresters are not sufficient. When more than one outdoor Ethernet cable is connected to the router, install a signal lightning arrester for each outdoor Ethernet cable.

Port configuration and management

Configuring a combo interface

Combo interface overview

A combo interface is a logical interface comprising an SFP port of a transceiver module and an RJ-45 Ethernet port. The two ports share one forwarding interface, so they cannot work simultaneously. When you enable either port, the other port is automatically disabled. You can select to activate a port as needed.

Configuration prerequisites

Use the display interface interface-type interface-number command to find out which port is an SFP port and which port is an RJ-45 Ethernet port.

• If the output includes “Media type is not sure, Port hardware type is No connector”, it means that the

port is an SFP port. For example, the following output shows that GigabitEthernet 5/0/1 is an SFP port.

[Sysname] display interface GigabitEthernet 5/0/1 GigabitEthernet5/0/1 current state: DOWN IP Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2, Hardware Address: 0000-fc00-7506 Description: GigabitEthernet5/0/1 Interface Loopback is not set Media type is not sure,Port hardware type is No connector Unknown-speed mode, unknown-duplex mode Link speed type is autonegotiation, link duplex type is autonegotiation

• If the output includes “Media type is twisted pair, Port hardware type is 1000_BASE_T”, it means

that the interface is an RJ-45 Ethernet port. For example, the following output shows that GigabitEthernet 5/0/0 is an RJ-45 Ethernet port.

[Sysname] display interface GigabitEthernet 5/0/0 GigabitEthernet5/0/0 current state: DOWN ( Administratively ) IP Packet Frame Type: PKTFMT_ETHNT_2, Hardware Address: 0000-fc00-7506 Description: GigabitEthernet5/0/0 Interface Loopback is not set Media type is twisted pair Port hardware type is 1000_BASE_T Unknown-speed mode, unknown-duplex mode Link speed type is autonegotiation, link duplex type is autonegotiation

Fundamentals Command Reference

Active and standby switchover for MPUs

A router can be configured with two MPUs of the same model, one acting as the active MPU and the other as the standby MPU. When RPE-X1 MPUs are used, the MPU in slot 0 is the active MPU by default. When RSE-X1 MPUs are used, the MPU in slot 1 is the active MPU by default. The standby MPU uses the synchronization function to keep its configuration consistent with the current configuration of the active MPU. When the active MPU fails, the standby MPU immediately takes over using the same configuration as the previous active MPU, and guarantees that the router operates properly. The process is called an active and standby switchover.

An active and standby switchover is triggered in the following conditions:

• The active MPU fails.

• The active MPU is unplugged.

• Remotely performing an active and standby switchover through SNMP.

• Manually executing the command for active and standby switchover.

Active/standby switchover is implemented in the following workflow:

1. The standby MPU automatically connects to and controls the system bus, and at the same time, the

former active MPU disconnects from the system bus.

2. The standby MPU becomes an active MPU, and the former active MPU automatically reboots and

becomes a standby MPU.

You can use the slave switchover command to trigger an active and standby switchover. For more information about the command, see the H3C SR6600 Routers High Availability Command Reference.

CAUTION:

• Do not execute any command on the standby MPU.

• When the standby MPU is started, the active MPU performs initial synchronization for the standby MPU.

During the synchronization process, if you press Enter

on the configuration terminal, the system prompts that you cannot execute any command on the active MPU or standby MPU. After the initial synchronization process is complete, you can execute configuration commands on the active

MPU, and the configurations of the active MPU are real-time synchronized (copied) to the standby MPU, so that the active MPU and the standby MPU can have the same configurations.

• Do not use the H3C SR6602-specific software to up

rade the H3C SR6604/6608 routers. Otherwise,

the system will fail.

Page 73

Solving system faults

When the system detects faults (such as system instruction faults, invalid addresses, data overflow, null pointers, and division by zero operations) during the operation of the active MPU or standby MPU, you can solve the problem in one of the following methods:

• reboot: Rebooting the failed MPU so that the MPU restores to normal operational status.

• maintain: Maintaining the current status of the failed MPU so that the system does not take any

restoration measures. Some software faults are hard to reproduce, and the printed information will be lost after the router reboots. In this case, you can maintain the current status of the router, facilitating fault location.

Follow these steps to solve system faults:

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Enter system view system-view —

Specify the system fault solving method for the active MPU and standby MPU

system-failure { maintain | reboot }

Optional

reboot by default for the active MPU and standby MPU.

NOTE:

• On a router with two MPUs, rebooting the active MPU triggers an active and standby switchover, and the

former standby MPU takes over.

• On a router with only one MPU, rebooting the active MPU reboots the router.

• If the FIP or SAP/OAP module encounters software faults, the solving method is always reboot, which

reboots the failed module.

• When system faults occur, the system fault solving method applies to only the failed module, and

rebooting the module does not interrupt the other modules.

Viewing the system fault solving method

Use the display system-failure command to display the system fault solving method.

<Sysname> display system-failure System failure handling method: reboot

Saving the current configuration of the router

You can save the current configuration of the router in one of the following methods:

• Fast saving: Executing the save command without the safely keyword. This mode saves the fi le more

quickly but is likely to lose the existing configuration file if the router reboots or the power fails during the process. The fast saving mode is suitable for environments where the power supply is stable.

• Safe saving: Executing the save command with the safely keyword. The mode saves the file more

slowly but can retain the configuration file in the router even if the router reboots or the power fails

Page 74

during the process. The safe saving mode is preferred in environments where a stable power supply is unavailable or remote maintenance is involved.

Follow these steps to save the current configuration of the router:

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Save the current configuration to the specified file, but the configuration file will not be set as the file for the next startup

save file-url [ all | slot slot-number ]

Save the current configuration to the root directory of the storage medium of the active or standby MPU and specify the file as the startup configuration file that will be used at the next system startup

save [ safely ]

Use either command

Available in any view

NOTE:

• The configuration file must be with extension .cfg.

• During the execution of the save

command, the startup configuration file to be used at the next system

startup may be lost if the router reboots or the

power supply fails. In this case, the router will boot with

the factory defaults, and after the router reboots, you need to re-specify a startup confi

uration file fo

the next system startup.

Rebooting a module or router

CAUTION:

Do not use the reboot command to reboot the standby MPU. To reboot it, use the slave restart command.

When upgrading and maintaining the startup configuration file or configuration file for the router, you need to reboot the router. After you change the operating mode of a MPU or service module, you must restart the corresponding module. To reboot a router, use one of the following methods:

• Use the reboot command to reboot a router.

• Enable the scheduled reboot function at the CLI. You can set a time at which the router can

automatically reboot, or set a delay so that the router can automatically reboot within the delay.

• Power on the router after powering it off, which is also called hard reboot or cold start. Powering off

a running router causes data loss and hardware damages, and therefore is not recommended.

Perform the following operation to reboot the router immediately:

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Reboot the router or the module in the specified slot immediately

reboot [ slot slot-number ]

Required

Available in user view

Perform the following operation to enable the scheduled reboot function:

Page 75

To do… Use the command… Remarks

Enable the scheduled reboot function and specify a specific reboot time and date

schedule reboot at hh:mm [ date ]

Enable the scheduled reboot function and specify a reboot waiting time

schedule reboot delay { hh:mm | mm }

Use either command

The scheduled reboot function is disabled by default.

Available in user view

CAUTION:

• If you execute the reboot command without specifying the slot keyword, the command reboots the

router, including the active MPU, standby MPU, and the service modules.

• If the main startup configuration file does not exist, do not use the reboot

command to reboot the router or the active MPU. In this case, you should specify the main startup configuration file first, and then reboot the active MPU.

• The precision of the rebooting timer is 1 minute. One minute before the rebooting time, the router

prompts “REBOOT IN ONE MINUTE” and reboots in one minute.

• If you are performin

file operations when the router is to be rebooted, the system does not execute the

reboot command for security.

Configuration system problems

If the configuration environment setup is correct, the configuration terminal displays boot information when the router 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 router is powered on, follow these steps to troubleshoot the failure:

Step1 Check the following items.

• The power supply system works properly.

• The console cable is properly connected.

Step2 If no problem is found, check the following reasons that may apply:

• The console cable is connected to an incorrect serial port (the serial port in use is not the one set on

the terminal).

• The properties of the terminal are incorrect. You must configure the console terminal as follows: set

Bits per second to 9600, Data bits to 8, Parity to None, Stop bits to 1, Flow control to None, and Terminal Emulation to VT100.

• The console cable fails.

Step3 If the cause cannot be located in the steps above and the problem persists, contact your local sales

agent.

Garbled terminal display

If terminal display is garbled, follow these steps to solve this problem:

Step1 Make sure that the Data bits field is set to 8 for the console terminal. If the Data bits field is set to 5 or

6, the console terminal will display garbled characters.

Step2 Make sure that the Bits per second field is set to 9600 kbps. An incorrect bits per second may also cause

the configuration terminal to display garbled characters.

No response from the serial port

If the serial port gives no response, check that the serial port settings are correct.

NOTE:

For more information about the serial port settings, see “Setting terminal parameters.”

Password loss

BootWare password loss

If you lose the BootWare password of the router, contact the sales agent.

Page 95

The BootWare password is modified in the main BootWare menu. Select 5 on the main BootWare menu and modify the password as prompted.

The configuration terminal displays the following information:

please input old password:

Input the old password:

please input old password: ******

NOTE:

• If you input an incorrect old password, the system will prompt “Wron

password, Please input password

again:”.

• If you fail to enter the correct password three times in a row, the system will be halted and prompt

“Wrong password, system halt.”

After you enter the correct old password, the system prompts you to enter a new password twice.

Please input new password: ****** Please input new password again: ******

The following output indicates that you have successfully set a new password.

Password Set Successfully.

NOTE:

• The BootWare password you entered is displayed in the form of asterisks (*) on the configuration

terminal.

• The BootWare password can contain up to 32 characters. If you enter more than 32 characters as a

password, the system automatically uses the first 32 characters.

User password loss

If you lose your password, you cannot enter the system. In this case, you can boot the system by ignoring the system configuration.

Follow these steps to solve the user password loss:

Step1 Enter the main BootWare menu, and select 6 to boot the system by ignoring the system configuration.

The system prompts the following:

Flag Set Success.

The output indicates that the setting succeeded.

Step2 When the main BootWare menu appears again, and select 0 to reboot the system.

System is rebooting now. System start booting...

Booting Normal Extend BootWare....

Step3 Set a new password in system view after the system reboots.

<H3C> system-view [H3C] user-interface console 0 [H3C-ui-console0] authentication-mode password [H3C-ui-console0] set authentication password simple 123456

Page 96

The output shows that the console port uses password authentication, and the password is set to 123456 and stored in plain text.

When you set the password by using the set authentication password { cipher | simple } password command, follow these guidelines.

• If the cipher keyword is specified, the password is stored in cipher text. You cannot view the

password by using the display current-configuration command.

• If the simple keyword is specified, the password is stored in plain text. You can use the display

current-configuration command to view the password in the current configuration.

NOTE:

• After reboot, the system runs with the initial default configuration, but the original configuration file is still

stored in the storage medium. To restore the original configuration, use the display saved-confi

uration

command to display the configuration, and then copy and execute the configuration.

• If the password is stored in plain text, you can use the display current-configuration command to vie

the password in the current configuration. If the password 123 4 56 is set with the set authentication

password cipher command, the password is stored in cipher text.

Step4 Save the new password.

[H3C] save

NOTE:

• To save the new password, execute the save command after modifying the user password.

• H3C recommends saving the modification as the default configuration file.

Super password loss

The super password enables you to switch between four super levels. In the case of super password loss, you cannot perform higher level operations.

You can clear the super password by selecting 8 on the main BootWare menu.

The following output indicates that you have successfully cleared the super password.

Clear Application Password Success!

Page 97

NOTE:

• Select option 8, quit the menu, reboot the router, and then you can enter system view directly.

• This setting (password clearin

) is valid only for the first reboot of the router. The super password will be

restored after a second reboot.
