LED Mode Select Button and Indicator LEDs

To optimize the amount of information that can be displayed for each of the switch ports, the 8200 zl switches use a Mode LED for each port. The operation of this LED is controlled by the LED Mode Select button on the switch chassis, and the current selection is indicated by the mode indicator LEDs near the button.

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 the 8200 zl 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 2-30.

Clear Button

This button, located on the System Support Module, is used for the following purposes:

■ Deleting Passwords - When pressed by itself for at least one second, 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 configuration 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. For the specific method to restore the factory default configuration, see “Restoring the Factory Default Configuration” in chapter 5, “Troubleshooting” of this manual.

Power Supply

The 8200 zl switches do not have a power switch. The switches are powered on when the power supply is connected to an active AC power source. The 8200 zl switches automatically adjust to any voltage between 100-127 and 200240 volts when using the J8712A power supply, between 110-127 and 200-240 volts when using the J9306A power supply, and between only 200-240 volts when using the J8713A power supply. There are no voltage range settings required.

Introducing the HP 8200 zl Switches

Switch Accessories

Load-sharing redundant power supplies can be installed in the back of the 8200 zl switches or they can be installed externally with the external power connectors. 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.

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.

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 8212 zl, 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 from a second (or more) power supplies, a system reload or interface module reset is required to restore operation to slots G-L. To reset the interface modules, pull each module out about half way and then reseat them. Do this for each module in slots G-L.
