ProCurve Switch 10-Gig CX4 6400cl-6XG (J8433A)
ProCurve Switch 10-Gig 6410cl-6XG (J8474A)
Throughout this manual, this switch will be abbreviated as the Switch 6400cl6XG or Switch 6410cl-6XG and collectively as the Series 6400cl Switch devices.
The Switch 6400cl-6XG and Switch 6410cl-6XG have respectively, six fixed
copper or six flexible media X2 transceiver slots, and one slot is provided in
the back of the device to support a two port 10-Gigabit per second Ethernet
(10-GbE) module to provide box connectivity to other switch boxes, to a
10-GbE concentrator or to any Ethernet compatible uplink.
The Series 6400cl Switch devices can be connected to a ProCurve 600 Redundant and External Power supply (RPS/EPS (J8168A)) and receive full redundant power if the internal power supply in the switch fails. The RPS/EPS unit
will immediately provide all the power necessary to keep the switch running.
1-1
Introducing the Switch
These switches are designed to be used primarily in a high-density wiring
closet or in a data center. These switches can directly connect computers and
servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and can build a
switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to other switches
and routers that support 10-GbE. In addition, the Series 6400cl Switch devices
offer full network management capabilities.
This chapter describes the Series 6400cl Switch devices, including:

Installation Procedures
Installation Precautions:
Follow these precautions when installing the Series 6400cl Switch devices.
WARNING■The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable and/or falling over. Devices installed in a
rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as possible, with the
heaviest devices at the bottom and progressively lighter devices
installed above.
■For safe operation, do not install the switch with the back face of
the switch (with the fan vents) facing either downward or upward.
■Left side vents cannot be placed downward. (That is, the left side
of the unit while facing the front.)
■For safe operation, use only screws provided with your rack mount
kit to secure mounting brackets to the switch. Use of longer or
improper screws may damage internal components
Installing the Switch
Cautions■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, 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.
■When installing the switch, 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. 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 55°C (131°F)
■Ensure the air flow around the sides and back of the switch is not

8. (Optional) Connect a Redundant Power Supply to the
Switch
The “ProCurve 600 Redundant and External Power Supply (hereafter referred
to as the RPS/EPS)” (J8168A) is an accessory product for the Series 6400cl
Switch devices and specific other ProCurve switches. The RPS/EPS provides
redundant power to any one of up to six switch products, to back up the power
supply in the switch in case of loss of AC power, or a fault condition. The RPS/
EPS is an unmanaged power supply that only provides information by way of
LEDs or through the port interfaces to attached devices.
Operating Characteristics
The RPS/EPS has six connectors, each of which can provide redundant +12V
power to a connected switch, but only one connector can provide this power
at a given time. If a switch with no AC power is connected to an operating
RPS/EPS, it will NOT immediately power up this new switch. Power can only
be provided to a switch if it is first powered on and operating correctly. Then
when the power to the switch fails, power will be provided from the RPS/EPS,
if it is available, that is, if the RPS/EPS is not already providing power to a
higher priority switch. If two or more devices fail, priority goes to the device
plugged into the lower numbered port on the RPS/EPS unit. Consequently the
most important switch must be plugged into port one on the RPS/EPS. In this
state, the “Connected” LED should be ON, and the “Power Status” LED should
be BLINKING. (Refer to the documentation that came with your RPS/EPS.)
Connect the RPS/EPS to the switch using one of the 6 supplied RPS cables.

power to the switch within 1ms.
The RPS/EPS supports hot plugging of the RPS/EPS cable without causing a
reboot of the switch or causing the power supply in either the RPS/EPS or
switch to shut down temporarily or permanently. For more information refer

9.(Optional) Connect a Console to the Switch
The switch has a full-featured, easy to use console interface for performing
switch management tasks including the following:
■Monitor switch and port status and observe network activity statistics
■Modify the switch’s configuration to optimize switch performance,
enhance network traffic control, and improve network security
■Read the event log and access diagnostic tools to help in troubleshooting
■Download new software to the switch
■Add passwords 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: The switch comes with a serial cable for connecting a PC
or VT-100 terminal, to be used as a console, directly to the switch.
■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. For more
information on IP addressing and on starting a Telnet session, see
chapter 3, “Getting Started With Switch Configuration”, and the Manage-ment and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM
that came with your switch.
2-18
The Switch can simultaneously support one out-of-band console session
through the Console Port and one in-band Telnet console session.
Terminal Configuration
To connect a console to the switch, configure the PC terminal emulator as a
DEC VT-100 (ANSI) terminal or use a VT-100 terminal, and configure either
one to operate with these settings:
■any baud rate from 1200 to 115200 (the switch senses the speed)
■8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and flow control set to Xon/Xoff
■For the Windows Terminal program, also disable (uncheck) the “Use
Function, Arrow, and C
■For the Hilgraeve HyperTerminal program, select the “Terminal keys”
option for the “Function, arrow, and ctrl keys act as” parameter.
If you want to operate the console using a different configuration, make sure
you change the settings on both the terminal and on the switch so they are
compatible. Change the switch settings first, save your changes, then change
the terminal settings, then reboot the switch and reestablish the console
session.

Direct Console Access
To connect a console to the
switch, follow these steps:
1.Connect the PC or
terminal to the switch’s
Console Port using the
console cable included
with the Switch. (If your
PC or terminal has a 25-pin
serial connector, first
attach a 9-pin to 25-pin

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 management tool, ProCurve Manager, please see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with your switch.
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
Getting Started With Switch
Configuration
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 configured 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 ProCurve Manager. 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
Documentation CD-ROM that came with your switch.
For more information on IP addressing, refer to “IP Configuration” in the
Management and Configuration Guide.
3-1
Getting Started With Switch Configuration
NoteBy 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 Documentation
CD-ROM that came with your switch.
Using the Console 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:

Troubleshooting
This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your switch. This document
describes troubleshooting mostly from a hardware perspective. You can
perform more in-depth troubleshooting on the switch using the software tools
available with the switch, including the full-featured console interface, the
built-in web browser interface, and ProCurve Manager, the SNMP-based
network management tool. For more information, see the chapter “Troubleshooting” in the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the
Documentation CD-ROM that came with your switch.

■basic troubleshooting tips (page 4-1)
■diagnosing with the LEDs (page 4-3)
■Proactive Networking tools (page 4-6)
■hardware diagnostic tests (page 4-7)
■restoring the factory default configuration (page 4-9)
■downloading new software to the Switch 6400 (page 4-10)

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, “Cables and Connectors” for pinouts and
correct cable wiring.
4-1
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
■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. Sample topologies are shown at the end of
chapter 2 in this book, and some topology configuration guidelines can
be found online at the ProCurve Networking Web site,
http://www.procurve.com.
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.
For your switch, if you wish to build redundant paths between important
nodes in your network to provide some fault tolerance, you should enable
Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch. This ensures 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 ProCurve Manager.
The Series 6400cl Switch devices also support Trunking, which allows
multiple network cables to be used for a single network connection
without causing a data path loop. For more information on Spanning Tree
and Trunking, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is
on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with your switch.
■Check the port configuration. A port on your switch may not be
operating as you expect because it has been put into a “blocking” state by
Spanning Tree, meshing, or LACP (automatic trunking). (Note that the
normal operation of the Spanning Tree, meshing, 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. For more information, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with your switch.
For more information on possible network problems and their solutions, refer
to the technical note “Troubleshooting LAN Performance and Intermittent
Connectivity Problems”, which can be found on the ProCurve Networking

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 may continue to operate under this condition if
the ambient temperature does not exceed normal room temperature, but for best
operation, the switch should be replaced. Contact your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer,

The network

working
properly.
The port may be
➐
improperly
configured, or
the port may be in
a “blocking”
state by the
normal operation
of the Spanning
Tree, LACP, or
IGMP features.
Try the following procedures:
• For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected
device, are connected properly.
• 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 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.
• 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 ProCurve Manager 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 fiberoptic, if the configurations do not match, the results could be a very unreliable
connection, or no link at all.
• If the other procedures do not resolve the problem, try using a different port or a
different cable.
Use the switch console to see if the port is part of a dynamic trunk (through the LACP
feature) or to see if Spanning Tree is enabled on the switch, and to see if the port may
have been put into a “blocking” state by those features. The show lacp command displays
the port status for the LACP feature; the show spanning-tree command displays the port
status for Spanning Tree.
Also check the Port Status screen using the show interfaces command to see if the port
has been configured as “disabled”.
Other switch features that may affect the port operation include VLANs and IGMP. Use
the switch console to see how the port is configured for these features.
For software troubleshooting tips, see the chapter “Troubleshooting” in the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came with your
switch.
Make sure also, the device at the other end of the connection is indicating a good link to
the switch. If it is not, the problem may be with the cabling between the devices or the
connectors on the cable.

Proactive Networking
Proactive Networking
The ProCurve Series 6400cl Switch devices 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:
■ProCurve Manager - an SNMP-based network management tool that is
included with your switch.
■A graphical web browser interface that you can use to manage your switch
from a PC running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft
Internet Explorer.
■A full-featured easy-to-use console interface that you can access by
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.
For more information on using these software tools to diagnose and manage
your switch, see the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came
with your switch.

Hardware Diagnostic Tests
Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests
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 Reset button on the front of the switch
Power cycling the switch and pressing the Reset button both 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.
Checking the Switch LEDs
The self test passes if the Fault and Test LEDs on the front of the switch go
off after approximately 50 seconds. If these LEDs stay on longer than 60
seconds or begin blinking, there may be a problem with the switch.
See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 4-3 for information on interpreting
the LED patterns and LED behaviors in chapter one.
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 7, “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 2-18. Then, when you reset the switch, note the messages that are
displayed. Additionally, you can check the switch event log, which can be
accessed from the console using the show log command, or from the console
Main Menu.
4-7
Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests
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. For more information, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation CD-ROM that came
with your switch.
These tests can also be performed from an SNMP network management
station running a program that can manage the switch, for example, ProCurve
Manager.
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 that the entire
communication path between the two PCs is functioning correctly. See your
LAN adapter documentation for more information on running a link test or
Ping test.

Restoring the Factory Default Configuration
Troubleshooting
Restoring the Factory Default
Configuration
As part of your troubleshooting process on the switch, it may become necessary to return the switch to the factory default settings. This process momentarily 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
the IP address, if one is configured.
NoteThis process removes all switch configuration changes you have made from
the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of
VLANs, Spanning Tree, trunks, and stacking. 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. For more information on this command, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the Documentation
CD-ROM that came with your switch.
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.When the Test LED begins to blink, 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.
