Console Port

There are two console ports on the switch. These ports are used to connect a
console to the switch. The one port uses the serial cable supplied with the
switch and the other port uses a MicroUSB cable which is not supplied with
the switch. This connection is described under “Connecting a Console to the
Switch” in chapter 2, “Installing the 5400R zl2 Switches”. The console is a full­featured interface that can be used to configure, monitor, and troubleshoot
the switch. It can be run on a PC, laptop, or handheld device emulating a VT­100 terminal, or on a standard VT-100 terminal.

Out-of-Band Management (OOBM) Port

This RJ-45 port is used to connect a dedicated management network to the
switch.

To use: connect an RJ-45 network cable to the Management port to manage
an HP 5400R zl2 Switch through Telnet from a remote PC or a UNIX worksta
tion.

To use this port, the switch must have an IP address. IP settings can be
configured through a Console port connection or automatically from a DHCP/
Bootp server.

A networked out-of-band connection through the Management port allows
you to manage data network switches from a physically and logically separate
management network.

For more information, see the "Network Out-of-Band Management (OOBM)"
appendix in the Management and Configuration Guide at: www.hp.com/
networking/support.

System Reset Button

-

This button will reset the entire switch, including the second management
module, when powered on. This action clears any temporary error conditions
that may have occurred, executes the switch self test, and resets all network
activity counters to zero. The counters are displayed in the switch console
interface, the switch web browser interface, and through SNMP network
management applications, such as Intelligent Management Center.

Press the Reset button also after changing the module type that is installed in
any of the switch module slots while the switch is powered on. See “Hot
Swapping Switch Modules” on

You can also use the no module <slot> command to erase the old module type
configuration.

page 2-27.

Clear Button

This button is used for the following purposes:

■ Deleting Passwords - When pressed for at least one second on either

one of the Management Modules, the Clear button deletes any switch
console access passwords that you may have configured. Use this feature
if you have misplaced the password and need console access.

This button is provided for your convenience, but its presence means that
if you are concerned with the security of the switch configuration and
operation, you should make sure the switch is installed in a secure
location, such as a locked wiring closet.

■ Restoring Factory Default Configuration - When pressed with the

Reset button in a specific pattern, the Clear button clears any configura
tion changes you may have made through the switch console, the web
browser interface, or SNMP management, and restores the factory default
configuration to the switch. The specific patterns to accomplish the
Restore Factory Default Configuration are:

i. Press both the System Reset and Clear buttons simultaneously.
ii. Release the System Reset button, but continue to hold the Clear

button.

iii. Release the Clear button immediately when you see the Test LED

begins to flash on both the Management Modules.

For the specific method to restore the factory default configuration, see
“Restoring the Factory Default Configuration” in chapter 4, “Troubleshooting”
of this manual.

MM Shutdown Button

-

When you want to remove a module, the MM shutdown button halts all the
management functions. It will not reboot when this button is pressed.

If the system is running with two management modules and the MM shutdown
button is pressed on the active module, this causes a failover to the standby
module.

If the system is running with two management modules and the MM shutdown
button is pressed on the standby module, no failover occurs.

MM Reset Button

The MM reset button resets the Management Module to which it is attached.

If the system is running with two management modules, and if the active
module is reset, this causes a failover to the standby module.

If the system is running with two management modules and the on reset is the
active, no failover occurs.

When a user presses the reset button, the module will be reset and will reboot.

Back of the Switch

Power Connector

The Series 5400R zl2 Switches do not have a power switch; they are powered
on when connected to an active AC power source.

The 5400R zl2 switches automatically adjust to any voltage between 100-127
volts or 200-240 volts when using the J9828A power supply, 110-127 volts or
200-240 volts when using the J9829A power supply, and 115-127 volts and 200­240 volts when using the J9830A power supply, and either 50 or 60 Hz. There
are no voltage range settings required.

Redundant Power Supply

Load-sharing redundant power supplies J9828A, max 630W, system power
(12V), 275W of POE power; J9829A, 630W max system (12V) power, 900W max
POE power; J9830A, 630W max, system (12V) power, 2500W max POE power
can be installed in the back of the 5400R zl2 switches. To provide redundancy,
each power supply should be connected to different AC power sources. Then,
if one AC power source fails, the switch will continue to run.

Note Any combination of J9828A, J9829A and J9830A power supplies can be used

in the same switch. However, HP recommends to only use like supplies in a
unit for more deterministic behavior in event of a power supply failure.

Caution The switch redundant power supply is hot swappable, but, as indicated by the

caution statement on the power supply, it must be disconnected from AC
power before being installed or removed.

Because the switch can run on a single supply, removing a redundant supply
will not interrupt switch operation. However, with a single power supply
system will power on Interface module up to 630W. The rest of the Interface
modules are powered on the priority of the slot. The slot A has the highest
priority and the slot L has the lowest priority.

When power is restored from a second (or more) power supplies, a system
reload or interface module reset is not required to restore operation to slots
G-L. The 5400R modules will restart by themselves when power recovers.

Installation Procedures

Installation Procedures

Summary

Follow these easy steps to install your switch. The rest of this chapter provides
details on these steps.

1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-8). Make sure the physical
environment into which you will be installing the switch is properly
prepared including having the correct network cabling ready to connect
to the switch, and having a good location for the switch. See
some installation precautions.

2. Install switch modules (page 2-8). The 5400R zl2 switches have six or
12 universal slots for installing any of the HP Switch v2 zl or v3 zl2
modules. Some of the 5406R zl2 and 5412R zl2 switches come with
preinstalled modules. Depending on where you will install your 5400R zl2
switch, it may be easier to install the modules first. The modules are “hot
swappable” though, so they can also be installed and removed after the
switch is powered on.

page 2-7 for

Note Make sure you use only HP Switch v2 zl or v3 zl2 Modules in your 5400R

zl2 switches. HP switch vl zl modules are not supported.

3. Install power supplies (page 2-12). The 5406R zl2 and 5412R zl2
switches supports up to two power supplies. It may be easier to install the
power supplies after mounting the switch. The switch must have at least
one power supply to operate.

4. Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-14). This is a simple process
of plugging the switch into a power source and observing that the LEDs
on the switch’s front panel and on the modules show correct operation.
It may be easier to verify if the switch passes self test before mounting
the switch.

5. Mount the switch (page 2-16). The 5400R zl2 switches can be mounted
in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, or on a horizontal surface.
An optional HP X450 4U/7U Universal 4-Post Rack Mounting Kit (J9852A)
is available for mounting 5400R zl2 switches in a cabinet. However, if you
want to ship in a cabinet or rack, its recommended to use the 4-post kit
in a HP rack. See the installation details for more information.

6. Install the Grounding Wire (page 2-20). If a grounding wire is to be
attached to the switch chassis, the grounding lug must be removed and a
wire crimped to it and the grounding lug must be reinstalled.

2-4

Switches

Installation Procedures

7. Connect the switch to a power source (page 2-21). Once the switch
is mounted, plug it in to the nearby main power source.

8. Connect the network devices (page 2-22). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect other switches, hubs, routers, computers,
servers, printers, and other network devices to the switch ports. For more
information, see “Connect the Network Devices” on

page 2-22.

Note The 10/100/1000-T ports on the v2 zl or v3 zl2 Modules comply with IEEE

802.3x standard which includes the Auto MDI/MDI-X feature. This
feature allows you to use straight-through twisted-pair cable for all of
your twisted-pair network connections.

9. Connect a console to the switch (optional—page 2-23). You m ay wi sh
to modify the switch’s configuration, for example, to configure an IP
address so it can be managed using a web browser or from an SNMP
network management station. Configuration changes can be made easily
through the switch’s console interface.

At this point, the switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you
need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.

Installation Precautions

Follow these precautions when installing your 5400R zl2 switch:

WARNING

■ Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low

as possible, with the heaviest device at the bottom and progres
sively lighter devices installed above.

The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable and/or falling over.

■ Ensure a cover plate is installed on any empty switch power

supply or module slot. A cover plate is required for safe
operation, and to ensure proper switch cooling. Never have
more than one power supply or module slot uncovered at a
time while the switch is powered on.

■ To avoid energy and mechanical hazards, never allow any part

of your body, jewelry, tool, or other foreign object to enter any
module or power supply slots.

■ This unit may have more than one power supply cable. To fully

power down the switch, you must disconnect all power supply
cables from the unit.

Installation Precautions (continued)

Installation Procedures

Cautions

■ If the switch is to be shipped in a rack, HP Shock Rack and an HP X4504U/

7U Universal 4-Post Rack Mount Kit (J9852A) for each switch.

■ Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the

power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power source.

■ If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied

with the switch and power supply, be sure the cord is adequately sized
for the switch’s current requirements. In addition, be sure to use a power
cord displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations
for power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the
power cord can be used safely with the switch and power supply.

■ When installing the switch, note that the AC outlet should be near the

switch and should be easily accessible in case the switch must be
powered off.

■ Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-

current protection. Each power supply should be connected to a dedi

­cated branch circuit to prevent tripping building circuit breakers. To
determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add together
the ampere ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the
switch and compare the total with the rating limit for the circuit. The
maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the devices near the AC
power connectors.

■ Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient

temperature might exceed 45°C (113°F).

■ Allow three to four inches of space around the sides and back of the

switch to make sure the air flow for the switch is not restricted.

Installation Procedures

3. (Optional) Install Another Power Supply

Caution The 5400R zl2 switches are designed to provide continuously operating PoE

or PoE+ power in the event of a single power supply failure with only a loss
of PoE or PoE+ power to lower priority ports.

If more than one power supply fails while the switch is at or near maximum
operating power (that is: the sum total of all PoE supply capacity minus the
largest supply, see chapter 2 and 4 of the PoE (Power over Ethernet) Devices
Planning and Implementation Guide) loss of all PoE power may result.

To return PoE power to the ports, without causing the switch to reboot, when
there are two or more power supplies still supplying 12V power, unplug the
power cord for 5 seconds and re-plug it for each power supply one at a time.

The following are the addition power supplies that can be installed in the back
of the 5400R switches. The 5406R zl2 switch can hold up to two power supplies
and the 5412R zl2 switch can hold up to four power supplies.

■ J9828A: 630W of max power of system 12V power or 275w of max PoE

power. Total Max power is 700w.

■ J9829A: 630W of max power of system 12V power or 900W of max PoE

power. Total Max power is 1100W.

■ J9830A (with 2 power cords): 630W of max power of system 12V power

or 2500W of max PoE power. Total Max power is 2750W.

■ J9830A (with MAIN power cord only): 630W of max power of system 12V

power or 1100W of max PoE power. Total Max power is 1400W.

Note Any combination of J9828A, J9829A and J9830A power supplies can be used

2-12

To prevent overloading of the building circuits breakers, the second power
supply must be connected to a different AC power source from the other
supply. This also helps with redundancy, if one AC power source fails, the
switch will continue to run.

Install the second power supply into power slot number 2 as shown in Figure
2-3. Although these procedures show the 6-slot chassis, the procedures are
the same for the 12-slot chassis. The slot cover can be removed with either a
flat-bladed or Torx T-10 screwdriver. Retain the slot cover for future use.

LED Behavior:

During the self test:

■ Initially, Power, Fault, Locator, and all the switch chassis LEDs are on. Then,

after approximately 30 seconds, all the module LEDs go on as the modules
receive power and code is downloaded to them, the Fault LED goes off,
and the chassis LEDs turn orange and then go off except Te st , Fan, and
Power, which turn green.

■ When the download of code to the modules is completed, the module

LEDs go off. You may see each port LED go on briefly, in sequence, as the
port is tested.

■ For the duration of the self test, the Te st LED stays on.

When the test completes successfully:

■ The Power LED stays on, and the Status LEDs on the switch chassis stay

on for the devices installed: one for each switch module installed, one for
each power supply installed, and one for all the fans.

■ The Fault, Locator, and Test LEDs are off.

■ The port LEDs on the switch modules go into their normal operational

mode:

• If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link LEDs

• If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs

stay on and the Mode LEDs behave according to the mode selected.
In the default mode (Activity), the Mode LEDs should flicker showing
network activity on the port.

Installation Procedures

Rack or Cabinet Mounting

The 5400R zl2 switches are designed to be mounted in any EIA-standard 19­inch telco rack or in an equipment cabinet such as a server cabinet. If you are
installing the switch in an equipment cabinet, read the following “Equipment
Cabinet Note” on

page 2-17.

Equipment
Cabinet
Note

If you are installing the switch in an equipment cabinet, in place of the
12-24 screws supplied with the switch, use the clips and screws that came with
the cabinet. Plan which four holes that you will be using in the cabinet and
install all four clips and partially install the two bottom screws, as described
in step 2 on the previous page, before proceeding to step 3. The number of
holes depends on the switch and the rack kit being used. To reduce the switch

Horizontal Surface Mounting

Place the switch on a table or other horizontal surface. Use a sturdy surface
in an uncluttered area. You may want to secure the networking cables and
switch power cord to the table legs or other part of the surface structure to
help prevent people from tripping over the cords.

6. Install the Grounding Wire

If a grounding wire is to be attached to the switch chassis, the grounding lug
must be removed and a wire crimped to it and the grounding lug must be
reinstalled.

1. Use a Torx T25 driver and remove the grounding lug and two screws from
the back of the switch.

7. Connect the Switch to a Power Source

1. Plug the included power cord into the switch’s power connector and into
a nearby properly grounded AC power source.

If a redundant power source is available, it is desirable to power one
switch power supply from the regular AC source, and the other power
supply from the independent AC source. This will provide redundancy in
AC power to the switch, as long as the switch PoE power usage falls within
the capability of one power supply. If both power supplies are plugged
into a common AC source, there is still power supply redundancy, that is,
protection against power supply failure, but if the AC source fails, the
switch will lose all power.

2. Re-check the LEDs during self test. See “LED Behavior” on page 2-16.

Installation Procedures

8. Connect the Network Cables

The type of network connections you will need to use depends on the types
of switch modules you have installed in your 5400R zl2 Switch. See the
documentation accompanying the modules for cabling configurations and
procedures for those modules.

In general for all the modules, when a network cable from an active network
device is connected to the switch, the Link LED for the switch port should go
on. If the Link LED does not go on, use the table below to help solve the
problem, and see the module documentation for troubleshooting procedures.

For more information on 40G port LED information, see v3 zl2 module
installation guide.

Condition Diagnostic Tip

Port LED is
still off when
a cable is
connected

Try the following procedures:

• For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected device, are
securely connected.

• Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly.

• Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection:
– for all twisted-pair connections, the RJ-45 connectors on the 5400R zl2 switches allow you to

use either straight-through cable or crossover cable when the port is in the “Auto”
configuration.

– for fiber-optic connections, verify the transmit port on the switch is connected to

the receive port on the connected device, and the switch receive port is connected to
the transmit port on the connected device.

See appendix B, “Switch Ports and Network Cables” for information on cables.

• Verify the port has not been disabled through a switch configuration change.

• Verify the connection parameters in the configurations of the switch port and the connected
device match. Mismatched configurations are a frequent cause of connection problems.

You can use the console interface, or, if you have configured an IP address on the switch, use the
web browser interface, or Intelligent Management Center network management software to
determine the state and configuration of the port and re-enable the port if necessary.

• If the other procedures don’t resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different cable.

Installation Procedures

10. (Optional) Connect to the Management Console of the Switch

The 5400R zl2 switches have a full-featured, easy to use console interface for
performing the following tasks:

■ Monitor switch and port status and observe network activity counters

■ Modify the switch’s configuration

■ Read the event log and access diagnostic tools to help in troubleshooting

■ Download new software to the switch

■ Add passwords and other security features to control access to the switch

from the console, web browser interface, and network management
stations

The console can be accessed through these methods:

■ Out-of-band: Connect a PC or VT-100 terminal, to be used as a console,

directly to the switch using the serial cable that comes with the 5400R zl2
switches. If the PC or terminal has a 25-pin serial connector, you can use
a readily available 9-pin to 25-pin serial cable, or attach a 9-to-25 pin
straight-through adapter to the PC end of the cable.

■ In-Band: Access the console using telnet from a PC or UNIX station on

the network, and a VT-100 terminal emulator. This method requires that
you first configure the switch with an IP address and subnet mask by using
either out-of-band console access or through DHCP/Bootp.

Terminal Configuration

To connect a console to the switch, configure the PC terminal emulator as a
VT-100 or DEC VT-100 (ANSI) terminal, or use a VT-100 terminal and configure
it to operate with these settings:

■ any baud rate from 2400 to 115200 (the switch automatically senses the

speed)

■ 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and flow control set to None

■ for Windows Terminal program, also disable (uncheck) the “Use Function,

Arrow, and

■ for the Hilgrave HyperTerminal program, select the “Terminal keys”

option for the “Function, Arrow, and

uration Guide which is on the HP networking Web site.

Out-of-Band Management (OOBM) Port

This RJ-45 port is used to connect a dedicated management network to the
switch.

To use: connect an RJ-45 network cable to the Management port to manage
an HP 5400R zl2 Switch through Telnet from a remote PC or a UNIX worksta
tion.

To use this port, the switch must have an IP address. IP settings can be
configured through a Console port connection or automatically from a DHCP/
Bootp server.

A networked out-of-band connection through the Management port allows
you to manage data network switches from a physically and logically separate
management network.

Hot Swapping Switch Modules

Adding or Replacing Modules

If a module has to be replaced with one of the same type, or you are expanding
the switch capability by adding a module in a slot where one was not previ
ously installed (since the last switch reboot), the replaced or new module is
immediately operational; there is no interruption to the switch operation.

When you are replacing a module in a slot with another module of different
type, the new module does not immediately operate, since the switch contains
configuration (such as VLAN membership) involving ports of the older
module. Replacing the module does NOT automatically remove such config
uration. To remove the older configuration, run the following command from
the command line interface:

no module X

where, X is the slot letter of the module to be replaced. After you run
command, the slot is restored to a state where no module was previously
installed. When you insert the new module, the module operates immediately.

Getting Started With Switch

Configuration

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

This chapter is a guide for using the console Switch Setup screen to quickly
assign an IP (Internet Protocol) address and subnet mask to the switch, set a
Manager password, and, optionally, configure other basic features.

For more information on using the switch console and the other switch
management interfaces: the web browser interface and the SNMP manage
ment tool, Intelligent Management Center, see the Management and Config-
uration Guide on the HP networking Website.

Recommended Minimal Configuration

In the factory default configuration, the switch has no IP (Internet Protocol)
address and subnet mask, and no passwords. In this state, it can be managed
only through a direct console connection. To manage the switch through in­band (networked) access, you should configure the switch with an IP address
and subnet mask compatible with your network. Also, you should configure
a Manager password to control access privileges from the console and web
browser interface. Other parameters in the Switch Setup screen can be left at
their default settings, or you can configure them with values you enter.

3

-

Many other features can be configured through the switch’s console interface,
to optimize the switch’s performance, to enhance your control of the network
traffic, and to improve network security. Once an IP address has been config
ured on the switch, these features can be accessed more conveniently through
a remote Telnet session, through the switch’s web browser interface, and from
an SNMP network management station running a network management
program, such as Intelligent Management Center. For a listing of switch
features available with and without an IP address, refer to “How IP Addressing
Affects Switch Operation” in the Management and Configuration Guide
which is on the HP networking Website.

For more information on IP addressing, see “IP Configuration” in the Manage-
ment and Configuration Guide.

Configuration

Note By default, the switch is configured to acquire an IP address configuration

from a DHCP or Bootp server. To use DHCP/Bootp instead of the manual
method described in this chapter, see “DHCP/Bootp Operation” in the
Management and Configuration Guide which is on the HP networking
Website.

Using the Switch Setup Screen

The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for manage­ment and password protection in your network is to use a direct console
connection to the switch, start a console session, and access the Switch Setup
screen.

1. Using the method described in the preceding section, connect a terminal
device to the switch and display the switch console command (CLI)
prompt (the default display).

The CLI prompt appears displaying the switch model number, for
example:

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Using the IP Address for Remote Switch
Management

With your 5400R zl2 switches, you can use the switch’s IP address to manage
the switch from any PC that is on the same subnet as the switch. You can use
either a Telnet session or a standard web browser to manage the switch.

Starting a Telnet Session

To access the switch through a Telnet session, follow these steps:

1. Ensure the switch is configured with an IP address and that the switch is
reachable from the PC that is running the Telnet session (for example, by
using a ping command to the switch’s IP address).

2. Start the Telnet program on a PC that is on the same subnet as the switch
and connect to the switch’s IP address.

3. You will see the copyright page and the message “Press any key to
continue”. Press a key, and you will then see the switch console command
(CLI) prompt, for example (assuming there is no password):

HP 5400Rzl2#

Enter help or ? to see a list of commands that can be executed at the
prompt. Entering any command followed by help provides more detailed
context help information about the command. Entering any command
followed by ? displays a list of options that are available at that point in
the command entry.

Starting a Web Browser Session

Your 5400R zl2 switch can be managed through a graphical interface that you
can access from any PC or workstation on the network by running your web
browser and typing in the switch’s IP address as the URL. No additional
software installation is required to make this interface available; it is included
in the switch’s onboard software.

Hot Swapping The HP 5400R zl2 Switch supports “hot swapping” - the ability to replace the

following hardware components while the switch is operating: a fan tray,
power supply (if a second power supply is installed), and interface module.

The Management module and its components are not hot swappable.

The hot swapping feature allows you to remove or install modules without
powering off or rebooting the switch. Swapped-in modules are recognized by
the switch and begin functioning immediately, after they are installed.

Caution The HP 5400R zl2 Switch and its components are sensitive to static discharge.

Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static precautions when hot
swapping components. For example, connect your antistatic wrist strap to the
ground point on the front of the switch, above the rightmost power supply bay.

WARNING This unit may have more than one power supply cable. To fully power

down the switch, you must disconnect all power supply cables from the
unit.

Replacing Power Supplies

If your HP 5400R zl2 Switch is configured with redundant power supplies, you
will not suffer any loss of traffic or performance if a power supply fails.
Replace the failed component as soon as possible. One of the Internal Power
LEDs on the management module will blink simultaneously with the switch
Fault LED indicating which power supply failed.

Although these procedures show the 6-slot chassis, the procedures are the
same for the 12-slot chassis.

To remove an AC power supply:

1. Ensure the AC power supply is not plugged into an AC power source on
the failed power supply.

2. Using either a flat-bladed or Torx T-10 screwdriver loosen the retaining
screws and remove the failed power supply.

When a fan fails the Fan Status LED on the management module blinks
simultaneously with the switch Fault LED. In this case, the entire fan tray
needs to be replaced. You cannot replace individual fans.

The fan tray is hot swappable. It can be removed and replaced without
removing power from the switch. However, install the new fan tray
immediately (after two minutes) after removing the old fan tray to avoid
overheating and switch shutdown (after three minutes). The fan tray is
provided with a hotswap controller on the backplane to control the fan power
interface during insertion and removal.

Although these procedures show the 6-slot chassis, the procedures are the
same for the 12-slot chassis.

WARNING To avoid contact with spinning fans, if you are hot swapping out the

fan tray assembly, pull the assembly out one-inch and allow the fans
to stop rotating (approximately 20 seconds) before pulling it all the
way out.

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Most problems are caused by the following situations. Check for these items
first when starting your troubleshooting:

■ Faulty or loose cables. Look for loose or obviously faulty connections.

If they appear to be OK, make sure the connections are snug. If that does
not correct the problem, try a different cable.

■ Non-standard cables. Non-standard and miswired cables may cause

network collisions and other network problems, and can seriously impair
network performance. Use a new correctly-wired cable or compare your
cable to the cable in appendix B, “Cabling and Technology Information”
on

page B-1 for pinouts and correct cable wiring. A category 5 cable tester

is a recommended tool for every 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T network
installation.

■ Improper Network Topologies. It is important to make sure you have

a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive
cable length and excessive repeater delays between end nodes. If you have
network problems after recent changes to the network, change back to
the previous topology. If you no longer experience the problems, the new
topology is probably at fault.

In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains
no data path loops. Between any two end nodes, there should be only
one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast
storms that will severely impact your network performance.

With your 5400R zl2 switches, if you wish to build redundant paths
between important nodes in your network to provide some fault toler

­ance, you should enable Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch.
This ensures that only one of the redundant paths is active at any time,
thus avoiding data path loops. Spanning Tree can be enabled through the
switch console, the web browser interface, or IMC.

The 5400R zl2 switches also support Trunking, which allows multiple
network cables to be used for a single network connection without
causing a data path loop. See the Management and Configuration Guide
for more information on Spanning Tree and on Trunking, which is on the
HP networking Web site.

Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

■ Connecting to devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration.

The RJ-45 ports on the 5400R zl2 switches are all configured as “Auto”.
That is, when connecting to attached devices, the switch will operate in
one of two ways to determine the link speed and the communication mode
(half duplex or full duplex):

• if the connected device is also configured to Auto, the switch will

automatically negotiate both link speed and communication mode

• if the connected device has a fixed configuration, for example 100

Mbps, at half or full duplex, the switch will automatically sense the
link speed, but will default to a communication of half duplex

Because the 5400R zl2 switches behave in this way (in compliance with
the IEEE 802.3 standard), if a device connected to the switch has a fixed
configuration at full duplex, the device will not connect correctly to the
switch. The result will be high error rates and very inefficient communi
cations between the switch and the device.

Ensure that all devices connected to the 5400R zl2 switches are configured
to auto negotiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex (all hubs are
configured this way, for example).

If necessary though, you can modify the configuration of the ports on the
5400R zl2 switches to match the configuration of the connected device.
Use the switch console, the web browser interface, or IMC to modify the
port configuration.

-

■ Check the port configuration. A port on your 5400r zl2 switch may not

be operating as you expect because it has been put into a “blocking” state
by Spanning Tree, GVRP (automatic VLANs), or LACP (automatic
trunking). (Note that the normal operation of the Spanning Tree, GVRP,
and LACP features may put the port in a blocking state.) Or, the port just
may have been configured as disabled through software.

Use the switch console to determine the port’s configuration and verify
that there is not an improper or undesired configuration of any of the
switch features that may be affecting the port. See the Management and
Configuration Guide which is on the HP networking Web site.

➌

The power supplies
installed in the
switch are not
plugged into active
AC power sources,
or the power supply
may have failed.

A switch hardware
failure has
occurred. All the
LEDs will stay on
indefinitely.

The switch has
experienced a
backplane failure
during self test.

1. Verify the power cord is plugged into an active power source and to the switch.
Ensure these connections are snug.

2. Try power cycling the switch by unplugging and plugging the power cord back in.

3. If the Power LED is still not on, verify the AC power source works by plugging
another device into the outlet. Or try plugging the switch into a different outlet or
try a different power cord.

If the power source and power cord are OK and this condition persists, the switch
power supply may have failed. Call your authorized reseller or authorized service
provider, or use the electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the
Customer Support/Warranty card for more information.

Try power cycling the switch. If the fault indication reoccurs, the switch may have
failed. Call your authorized reseller or authorized service provider, or use the
electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/
Warranty card for more information.

The failure may be just in the communications with a single module slot, or it might
be more significant. Start a console session with the switch, and at the CLI prompt
issue the command show logging. In the event log that is displayed, there will be
messages that describe the extent of the problem. If the problem is with individual
slots, the remainder of the switch slots will be fully operational and can be used until
you get a chance to replace the switch.

If necessary to resolve the problem, contact Call your authorized reseller or
authorized service provider, or use the electronic support services from HP to get
assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty card for more information.

➍

The module
installed in the slot
that corresponds to
the letter that is
blinking is an
invalid module.

Ensure you have installed a zl or zl2 module in the slot. The HP xl/gl/vl modules will
not fit in the interface module slots in 5400R zl2 family, and they are not compatible
with HP 5400R zl2 switch. Check to ensure the module has a Blue “zl module” or “zl2
module” symbol on it.

Remove the module from the switch and replace it with a zl module or zl2 module,
or recover the slot with the cover plate. You can remove and replace the module
without having to power down the switch. Call your authorized reseller or authorized
service provider, or use the electronic support services from HP to get information
on supported Switch zl or zl2 modules. You can also view the switch message log
for more details on specific errors. The modules that are available as of the printing
of this manual are listed on

The module
installed in the slot
that corresponds to
the letter that is
blinking has
experienced a self
test or initialization
fault.

The modules are all tested whenever the switch is powered on, or reset (through
the Reset button on the switch, or the Boot or Reset options in the console or web
browser interface), and when they are hot swapped (installed when the switch is
powered on).

Since the Link and Mode LEDs on the module were lit at least briefly, that indicates
that the module did receive power from the switch, but the subsequent download
process failed. Either the module is faulty, or it is a new module type that is not yet
supported by the operating code on the switch.

As HP networking introduces new modules for your HP 5400R zl2, you may have to
update the switch with new operating code that supports the new module. The
documentation that came with the module will indicate which version of the
operating code is needed to support the module. The modules that are supported in
your 5400R zl2, as of the printing of this manual, are listed on
Features”. The latest code can be downloaded from the HP networking Web site at

www.hp.com/networking/support.

First verify the switch has a version of code that supports the module that is
indicating the fault. If the module is not one of the ones listed on
the module documentation to see what version of switch code is needed. Download
the new code and retest the module.

If you have the correct code installed in the switch, try removing and reinstalling the
module. You can do this without having to power down the switch. When the module
is reinstalled, it will be retested automatically.

If the fault indication reoccurs, the module may have failed. Remove the module from
the switch and replace it with another module, or recover the slot with the cover
plate. Call your authorized reseller or authorized service provider, or use the
electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/

The network port
for which the Link
LED is blinking has
experienced a self
test or initialization
failure.

A fault condition
has been detected
on the power
supply installed in
the slot
corresponding to
the blinking
number.

During the module self test, described in tip number 4 earlier in this table, each
network port is also tested. If the port self test fails, the individual port is not usable,
but the rest of the ports on the module, which have passed their self test, will
continue to operate normally.

If the port is a transceiver, verify it is one of the transceivers supported by the
Module. Unsupported transceivers will be identified with this fault condition. The
supported transceivers are listed in the module Installation Guide. The transceivers
are also tested when they are “hot-swapped”--installed or changed after the
Module is installed and receiving power from the switch.

To verify the port has failed, try removing and reinstalling the module, as described
in tip number 4. For the transceivers, you can just remove and reinstall the
transceiver without having to remove the module. If the port fault indication
reoccurs, and you need to be able to use the port, you will have to replace the
transceiver or the module. In the mean time, all the other module ports will operate
normally.

For more information on 40G port self-test or initialization failure, see v3 zl2 module
installation guide.

Try removing and reinstalling the power supply.

Caution: Ensure the AC power cord is disconnected from the supply before removing
and reinstalling the supply.

Reconnect the power supply to the AC power source. If the error indication reoccurs
after the supply is reinstalled, the power supply may be faulty. Call your authorized
reseller or authorized service provider, or use the electronic support services from
HP networking to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty card for more
information.

➑

One or more of the
switch cooling fans
may have failed.

Try disconnecting power from the switch and wait a few moments. Then reconnect
the power to the switch and check the LEDs again. If the error indication reoccurs,
one or more of the fans has failed. The switch has multiple fans and may continue
to operate OK under this condition if the ambient temperature does not exceed
normal room temperature, but for best operation, replace the fan tray. Call your
authorized reseller or authorized service provider, or use the electronic support
services from HP networking to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty

The network port
for which the Link
LED is blinking has
been disabled
because port
security has been
configured on the
switch and a
security violation
has been detected
on the port.

For the Port Security feature, you can configure the switch so that whenever a
security violation is detected on a port, the switch will disable the port. When a port
is disabled by this feature, the port Link LED will be continuously flashed at the fast
rate of 0.8 seconds per cycle. The blinking continues until you clear the security
violation through the switch console. In the console, you can view the identity of the
connected device that committed the security violation.

Once the security violation is cleared, you must re-enable the port through the
console.

The network
connection is not
working properly.

Try the following procedures:

• For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the
connected device, are securely connected.

• Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating
correctly.

• Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection.
– for any of the twisted-pair connections, in the default configuration (Auto),

either a straight-through or a crossover cable can be used and the switch will
automatically adjust its operation. See the “HP Auto-MDIX Feature”
description on

Note: If the module configuration is changed to one of the fixed
configuration options though (for example, 100-Full Duplex), then the port

operates as MDI-X only and the correct type of cable must be used. in
general, for connecting to an end node (MDI port), use straight-through
cable; for connecting to MDI-X ports on hubs, other switches, and routers,
use crossover cable.

– for fiber-optic connections, verify that the transmit port on the switch is

connected to the receive port on the connected device, and the switch
receive port is connected to the transmit port on the connected device, and
that both devices are transmitting correctly.

• For a 1000 Mbps connection, verify the network cabling complies with the IEEE

802.3ab standard. The cable should be installed according to the ANSI/TIA/EIA­568-A-5 specifications. Cable testing should comply with the stated limitations
for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk, Far-End Crosstalk, Equal-Level Far-End
Crosstalk (ELFEXT), Multiple Disturber ELFEXT, and Return Loss.

The cable verification must include all patch cables from any end devices,
including the switch, to any patch panels in the cabling path.

• Verify the port has not been disabled through a switch configuration change.
You can use the console interface, or, if you have configured an IP address on

the switch, use the web browser interface, or IMC network management
software to determine the state of the port and re-enable the port if necessary.

• Verify the switch port configuration matches the configuration of the attached
device. For example, if the switch port is configured as “Auto”, the port on the
attached device also MUST be configured as “Auto”. Depending on the port type,
twisted-pair or fiber-optic, if the configurations don’t match, the results could be
a very unreliable connection, or no link at all.

If the other procedures don’t resolve the problem, try using a different port or a
different cable.

HP networking tools

HP networking tools

The 5400R zl2 switches have built-in management capabilities that
proactively help you manage your network including:

■ finding and helping you fix the most common network error conditions

(for example, faulty network cabling, and non-standard network
topologies)

■ informing you of the problem with clear, easy-to-understand messages

■ recommending network configuration changes to enhance the

performance of your network

The following interfaces provide tests, indicators, and an event log that can
be used to monitor the switch and its network connections, and to help you
take advantage of these proactive networking features:

■ Intelligent Management Center - an SNMP-based network management

tool included with your switch

■ A graphical web browser interface you can use to manage your switch

from a PC that is running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft
Internet Explorer.

■ A full-featured easy-to-use console interface you can access by merely

connecting a standard terminal or PC running a terminal emulator to the
switch’s console port. The cable to make that connection is provided with
your switch. The console interface is also accessible through a telnet
connection.

Reasons for Resetting the Switch

Generally, you only need to reset the switch when it needs to recognize a
change in its hardware or software (console) configuration. Some
circumstances in which you will need to reset the switch are:

■ Changing certain switch configuration parameters through the console

interface. (In this case, the console provides indications when the switch
must be reset for the configuration change to be activated.)

You do not need to reset the switch when:

■ Installing a module in a previously unused slot.

■ Replacing a module with the same type of module.

■ Replacing the module with a different type of module.

Methods of Resetting the Switch

You can reset the switch by any of these methods:

■ pressing the System Reset button. On the 5400R zl2 switches, this is the

Reset button on the Management Module.

■ power cycling the switch (if both power supplies are being used, you will

have to disconnect all the power cords)

■ issuing the boot command from the switch console CLI, or selecting the

Reset or Boot option from the switch console menu, web browser inter

-

face, or Intelligent Management Center.

Testing the Switch by Resetting It

If you believe the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch
to test its circuitry and operating code. To reset a switch, either:

■ Unplug and plug in the power cord (power cycling)

■ Press the System Reset button on the front of the switch

■ Select the reset or reboot option from the console, web browser interface,

or Intelligent Management Center.

5-11

Troubleshooting

Troubleshooting

Hardware Diagnostic Tests

Power cycling the switch, pressing the System Reset button, and the software
reset or reboot options all cause the switch to perform its power-on self-test,
which almost always will resolve any temporary operational problems. These
reset processes also cause any network traffic counters to be reset to zero and
cause the System Up Time timer to reset to zero. Neither of these reset
procedures causes any changes to the switch configuration.

Checking the Switch LEDs

The self-test passes if the Fault and Test LEDs on the front of the switch go
off after approximately 90 to 150 seconds depending on the number and type
of modules installed in the switch. If these LEDs stay on longer than 180
seconds or begin blinking, the switch, or a module, or an individual transceiver
may have to be replaced as indicated by the LEDs.

See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 5-4 for information on interpreting
the LED patterns.

Checking Console Messages

Useful diagnostic messages may be displayed on the console screen when the
switch is reset. As described in chapter 2 under step 8, “Connect a Console to
the Switch”, connect a PC running a VT-100 terminal emulator program or a
standard VT-100 terminal to the switch’s Console Port and configure it to run
at 9600 baud and with the other terminal communication settings shown on

page 2-23. Then, when you reset the switch, note the messages that are

displayed.

Testing Twisted-Pair Cabling

If you think the cable should work but still isn’t working, it may not be
compatible with the IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T
standards, as appropriate for the switch port type that the cable is connected
to. The twisted-pair cables attached to the 5400R zl2 switches must be compat
ible with these standards.To verify your cable is compatible with these stan­dards, use a qualified cable test device.

HP networking also offers a wire testing service. Contact your HP authorized
reseller or authorized service provider or your local HP networking sales
office for more information.

Testing Switch-to-Device Network Communications

You can perform the following communication tests to verify the network is
operating correctly between the switch and any connected device that can
respond correctly to the communication test.

■ Link Test -- a physical layer test that sends IEEE 802.2 test packets to any

device identified by its MAC address

■ Ping Test -- a network layer test used on IP networks that sends test

packets to any device identified by its IP address

-

These tests can be performed through the switch console interface from a
terminal connected to the switch or through a telnet connection, or from the
switch’s web browser interface. See the Management and Configuration
Guide which is on the HP networking Web site. See

These tests can also be performed from an SNMP network management
station running a program that can manage the switch, for example, IMC.

page 5-1 for details.

Testing End-to-End Network Communications

Both the switch and the cabling can be tested by running an end-to-end
communications test -- a test that sends known data from one network device
to another through the switch. For example, if you have two PCs on the
network that have LAN adapters between which you can run a link-level test
or Ping test through the switch, you can use this test to verify the entire
communication path between the two PCs is functioning correctly. See your
LAN adapter documentation for more information on running the a link test
or Ping test.

Restoring the Factory Default Configuration

Restoring the Factory Default
Configuration

As part of your troubleshooting process, it may become necessary to return
the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This process momen
tarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords, clears the console
event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a complete self test,
and reboots the switch into its factory default configuration including deleting
an IP address, if one is configured.

Note This process removes all switch configuration changes that you have made

from the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of
VLANs, spanning tree, trunks, stacking, meshing, routing, and security.
Returning the configuration of these features to their factory default settings
(usually disabling them) may result in network connectivity issues.

If the switch has a valid configuration, and you are restoring the factory default
settings for a reason other than configuration problems, you should save the
switch configuration prior to performing the factory default reset. Then, after
the reset and resolution of the original problem, you can restore the saved
configuration to the switch. For both the save and restore processes, you can
use the console copy command. See the switch Management and Configura
tion Guide which is on the HP networking Web site. See page 5-1 for details.

-

-

You can restore the factory default configuration either on the switch itself or
through the switch console.

To execute the factory default reset on the switch, perform these steps:

1. Using pointed objects, simultaneously press both the Reset and Clear
buttons on the front of the switch.

2. Continue to press the Clear button while releasing the Reset button.

3. As soon as the Test LED begins to flash, release the Clear button.
The switch will then complete its self test and begin operating with its

configuration restored to the factory default settings.

To restore the factory default configuration using the console, execute the
erase startup-config command from the console command prompt.
