Introducing the ProCurve Series

8200zl Switch

The ProCurve Series 8200zl Switch is a multiport modular switch that provides Layer 3 routing features, and features low latency for high-speed networking.

This chapter describes your Series 8200zl Switch including:

■Front and back of the switches

■Features

■Switch operation overview

The Series 8212zl Switch is typically ordered as the base system (J8715A) with one management module, one system support module, two fabric modules, and the fan tray pre-installed. A spare chassis-only (J9091A) can be ordered, but it only comes with a fan tray pre-installed. All other modules are removed from a failed chassis and re-installed into the spare chassis.

N o t e

The 8200zl (J9091A) ships empty as a spare chassis, not pictured.

■If the PoE PoE indicator LED is lit, the Link and Mode LEDs indicate PoE status:

Link LED:

•On = PoE is enabled on this port

•Off = PoE is disabled on this port.

•Slow Blinking = Internal PoE fault on this port.

•Fast Blinking = This port is denied PoE power or has an external load fault.

Mode LED:

•On = PoE power is be supplied on this port

•Off = PoE is not being supplied on this port.

Console Port

This port is used to connect a console to the switch by using the serial cable supplied with the switch. This connection is described under “Connecting a Console to the Switch” in chapter 2, “Installing the Series 8212zl Switch”. The console is a full-featured 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 VT-100 terminal, or on a standard VT-100 terminal.

Reset Buttons

Module Reset

This button, located on the Management module, will reset the Management module only.

System Reset

This button, located on the System Support Module, will reset the switch 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 ProCurve Manager.

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. In this case, the switch must be reset to initialize the new module type. See “Hot Swapping Switch Modules” on page 2-31.

Redundant Power Supply

Load-sharing redundant power supplies (ProCurve Switch zl 875 W Power Supply, J8712A or a ProCurve Switch zl 1500 W Power Supply J8713A) can be installed in the back of the Series 8200zl Switch. 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.

C a u t i o n	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.
	CAUTION:
	.Refer to the installation guide for proper power cord selection
	.Disconnect AC power from the power supply BEFORE installing or
	removing the supply. Otherwise, damage to the. equipment may result.

Because the switch can run on a single supply, removing a redundant supply will not interrupt switch operation. However, on the 8212zl one power supply will only supply enough power to run the module slots A-F. Slots G-L will not receive any power unless there are at least two power supplies installed.

When power is restored to a second (or more) power supplies, a system reload or interface module reset may be required to restore operation to slots G-L.

Installing the Series 8200zl Switch

Installation Procedures

Installation Procedures

To avoid personal injury or product damage, read the safety warnings on page 2-5 and installation precautions on page 2-6 and follow the rack mounting guidelines on page 2-9. Due to product weight, two or more persons are required to handle and mount the 8212zl.

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 2-7). 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 page 2-6 for some installation precautions.

2.Mount the switch (page 2-9). The Series 8200zl Switch is a large heavy chassis, therefore ProCurve Networking recommends mounting the empty chassis before populating it with modules or power supplies. It can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, or on a horizontal surface. An optional Rail Mounting Kit (5070-0145) is available for mounting the Series 8200zl Switch in a cabinet suitable for shipping. See the installation details for more information.

3.Install switch modules (page 2-14). The Series 8200zl Switch has 12 universal slots for installing any of the ProCurve Switch zl modules. Depending on where you will install your Series 8200zl 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.

Make sure you use only ProCurve Switch zl Modules in your Series 8200zl Switch.

4.Install power supplies (page 2-17). The Series 8200zl Switch supports up to four power supplies. It may be easier to install the power supplies before mounting the switch. The switch must have at least one power supply to operate.

Installation Procedures

5.Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-20). 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.

6.Install the Grounding Wire (page 2-22). 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.

7.Connect the switch to a power source (page 2-22). Once the switch is mounted, plug it in to the nearby main power source.

8.(Optional) connect a Power Supply Shelf (page 2-23). You may wish to use a Power Supply Shelf with your switch. To do so you must connect the external power supply using the EPS cables supplied with the Power Supply Shelf.

9.Connect the network devices (page 2-26). 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 2-26.

N o t e	The 10/100/1000-T ports on the zl 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.

10.(Optional) connect a console to the switch (page 2-28). You may wish 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.
