Safety recommendations

To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury, read the following safety recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.

• Before cleaning the switch, unplug all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch with wet

cloth or liquid.

• Do not place the switch near water or in a damp environment. Prevent water or moisture from

entering the switch chassis.

• Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk. The switch might be severely damaged in case

of a fall.

• Ensure good ventilation of the equipment room and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the switch

free of obstruction.

• Make sure the operating voltage is in the required range.

• To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the switch

is just powered off.

HP FlexFabric 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ Switch

HP FlexFabric 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ TAA-compliant Switch

• When replacing FRUs, including power supplies and fan trays, wear an ESD wrist strap to avoid

damaging the units.

Examining the installation site

The switch must be used indoors.

Mount your switch in a rack and make sure:

• Adequate clearance is reserved at the air inlet and exhaust vents for ventilation.

• The rack has a good ventilation system.

• Identify the hot aisle and cold aisle at the installation site, and make sure ambient air flows into the

switch from the cold aisle and exhausts to the hot aisle.

• Identify the airflow designs of neighboring devices, and prevent hot air flowing out of the bottom

device from entering the top device.

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

• The rack is correctly grounded.

To ensure normal operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an environment that meets the requirements described in the following subsections.

Temperature/humidity

Maintain appropriate temperature and humidity in the equipment room.

• Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity creepage, mechanical property

change of materials, and metal corrosion.

• Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and bring problems including

loose captive screws and circuit failure.

• High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the

reliability and lifespan of the switch.

For the temperature and humidity requirements of different switch models, see "Appendix A Chassis v

iews and technical specifications."

Cleanness

Dust buildup on the chassis might 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.

Table 2 Dust concentration limit in the equipment room

Substance Concentration limit (particles/m³)

Dust

NOTE:

Dust diameter ≥ 5 μm

≤ 3 x 104 (no visible dust on the tabletop over three days)

The equipment room must also meet limits on salts, acids, and sulfides to eliminate corrosion and premature aging of components, as shown in Table 3.

Table 3 Harmful gas limits in the equipment room

EMI

Gas Maximum concentration (mg/m

H2S 0.006

NH3 0.05

Cl2 0.01

Electromagnetic interference (EMI) might be coupled from the source to the switch through the following coupling mechanisms:

• Capacitive coupling

• Inductive coupling

• Radiative coupling

• Common impedance coupling

• Conductive coupling

To prevent EMI, take the following actions:

• If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) to

filter interference from the power grid.

0.2

)

• Keep the switch far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency

devices to make sure the EMI levels do not exceed the compliant range.

• Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary.

• To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by over-voltage or over-current caused by lightning

strikes, only route interface cables indoors.

Laser safety

ARNING!

Do not stare into any fiber port when the switch has power. The laser li might hurt your eyes.

The switch is a Class 1 laser device.

Installation tools

The installation tools are not provided with the switch. Prepare them yourself.

• Phillips screwdriver

• ESD wrist strap

Grounding the switch

ARNING!

Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.

The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this chassis ground to the earth so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the earth to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.

You can ground a switch by using a grounding strip at the installation site or the AC power cord connected to the switch.

NOTE:

The power and grounding terminals in this section are for illustration only.

If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, connect the grounding cable to the grounding strip.

To connect the grounding cable:

1. Attach the two-hole grounding lug at one end of the grounding cable to a grounding point on the

switch chassis (see "Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis").

2. Remove the hex nut of a grounding post on the grounding strip.

3. Attach the ring terminal at the other end of the grounding cable to the grounding strip through the

grounding post, and fasten the ring terminal with the removed hex nut.

To connect a terminal (for example, a PC) to the switch:

1. Plug the DB-9 female connector of the console cable to the serial port of the PC.

2. Connect the RJ-45 connector to the console port of the switch.

NOTE:

• Identify the mark on the console port and make sure you are connecting to the correct port.

• The serial ports on PCs do not support hot swapping. If the switch has been powered on, connect the

console cable to the PC before connecting to the switch, and when you disconnect the cable, first disconnect from the switch.

To configure and manage the switch, you must run a terminal emulator program on the console terminal.

The following are the required terminal settings:

• Bits per second—9,600

• Data bits—8

• Parity—None

• Stop bits—1

• Flow control—None

• Emulation—VT100

To set terminal parameters, for example, on a Windows XP HyperTerminal:

1. Select Start > All Programs > Accessories > Communications > HyperTerminal.

The Connection Description dialog box appears.

2. Enter the name of the new connection in the Name field and click OK. Figure 25 Connection description

Powering on the switch

Before powering on the switch, verify that the following conditions are met:

• The power cord is correctly connected.

• The input power voltage meets the requirement of the switch.

• The console cable is correctly connected.

• The configuration terminal (a PC, for example) has started, and its serial port settings are consistent

with the console port settings on the switch.

Power on the switch. During the startup process, you can access Boot ROM menus to perform tasks such as software upgrade and file management. The Boot ROM interface and menu options differ with software versions. For more information about Boot ROM menu options, see the software-matching release notes for the device.

After the startup completes, you can access the CLI to configure the switch.

For more information about the configuration commands and CLI, see HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series Configuration Guides and HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series Command References.

Setting up an IRF fabric

You can use HP IRF technology to connect and virtualize HP FlexFabric 5700 switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability.

See HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide.

See "Planning IRF topology and connections."

All switches except the master switch automatically reboot, and the IRF fabric is established.

Planning IRF fabric setup

This section describes issues that an IRF fabric setup plan must cover.

Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site

Choose switch models and identify the number of required IRF member switches, depending on the user density and upstream bandwidth requirements. The switching capacity of an IRF fabric equals the total switching capacities of all member switches.

Plan the installation site depending on your network solution as follows:

• Place all IRF member switches in one rack for centralized high-density access.

• Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the top-of-rack (ToR) access

solution for a data center.

As your business grows, you can plug HP FlexFabric 5700 switches into the IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement.

Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs

Determin e which swi tch yo u want to use as the master for m anaging all member switches in the IRF fabric. An IRF fabric has only one master switch. You configure and manage all member switches in the IRF fabric at the command line interface of the master switch.

NOTE:

IRF member switches will automatically elect a master. You can affect the election result by assigning a high member priority to the intended master switch. For more information about master election, see

FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide

Prepare an IRF member ID assignment scheme. An IRF fabric uses member IDs to uniquely identify and manage its members, and you must assign each IRF member switch a unique member ID.

Planning IRF topology and connections

You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology, or more reliably, ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology. Rather, the IRF fabric changes to a daisy chain topology without interrupting network services.

You connect the IRF member switches through IRF ports, the logical interfaces for the connections between IRF member switches. Each IRF member switch has two IRF ports: IRF-port 1 and IRF-port 2. To use an IRF port, you must bind at least one physical port to it.

When connecting two neighboring IRF member switches, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1 on one switch to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other switch.

The HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+, HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+ TAA, HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+, and HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches can provide 10-GE and 40-GE IRF connections through SFP+ ports and QSFP+ ports, respectively.

The HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches can provide 10-GE and 40-GE IRF connections through 1/10-GE Ethernet ports, SFP+ ports, or QSFP+ ports.

You can bind several ports of the same type to an IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability.

Figure 31 and

Figure 32 show the topologies of an IRF fabric made up of three HP FlexFabric 5700 switches. The IRF port connections in the two figures are for illustration only, and more connection methods are available.

Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches

Identify the ports to be used for IRF connections on the member switches according to your topology and connection scheme.

All ports on the front panel of the HP FlexFabric 5700 switch can be used for IRF connections.

Follow these guidelines when you identify 1/10-GE Ethernet ports and SFP+ ports to be used for IRF connections:

• On the HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches, the SFP+ ports are

grouped by port number in ascending order, starting from one. Every four SFP+ ports form one group.

• On the HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+TAA switches, the

1/10-GE Ethernet ports and SFP+ ports are grouped by port number in ascending order, starting from 1 for 1/10-GE Ethernet ports and 33 for SFP+ ports, respectively. Every four ports form one group.

• On the HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches, SFP+ ports

numbered 49, 50, 51, and 52 form one group.

• A port can be bound to an IRF port or operate as a service port. When a port is bound to an IRF

port, other ports in the same port group cannot be used as service ports, and vice versa.

A common practice is to use one 1/10-GE Ethernet port/SFP+ port group for IRF connections, and bind every two ports in the group to an IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability.

Planning the cabling scheme

Follow these guidelines when you use cables to connect switches:

• HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+, HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+ TAA, HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+, and HP

5700-40XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches—Use SFP+/QSFP+ cables or SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules and fibers.

• HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches—Use Category 6

or higher twisted pair cables, SFP+/QSFP+ cables, or SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules and fibers.

If the IRF member switches are far away from one another, choose the SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules with optical fibers. If the IRF member switches are all in one equipment room, choose Category 6 or higher twisted pair/SFP+/QSFP+ cables. For more information about available SFP+/QSFP+ cables and transceiver modules, see "SFP+ port" and "QSFP+ port."

The following subsections describe several HP recommended IRF connection schemes, and all these schemes use a ring topology.

Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack

Use short-haul and long-haul SFP+ cables to connect the IRF member switches (four switches in this example) in a rack as shown in Figure 33. T same order as connected in the rack.

Connecting the IRF member switches in a ToR solution

You can install IRF member switches in different racks side by side to deploy a top of rack (ToR) solution.

Figure 35 shows an example for connecting four top of rack IRF member switches by using SFP+/QSFP+

cables, and SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules, and optical fibers. The topology is the same as Figure

34.

Figure 35 ToR cabling

Configuring basic IRF settings

After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member switch (see HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings.

Follow these guidelines when you configure the switches:

• Assign the master switch higher member priority than any other switch.

• Bind physical ports to IRF port 1 on one switch and to IRF port 2 on the other switch. You perform

IRF port binding before or after connecting IRF physical ports depending on the software release.

• To bind the ports on an interface card to an IRF port, you must install the interface card first. For how

to install an interface card, see HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series Interface Cards User Guide.

• Execute the display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings.

For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see HP FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide.

Connecting the physical IRF ports

Use Category 6 or higher twisted-pair/SFP+/QSFP+ cables or SFP+/QSFP+ transceiver modules and fibers to connect the IRF member switches as planned.

NOTE:

ear an ESD wrist strap when you connect SFP+ cables or SFP+ transceiver modules and fibers. For more

information, see

SFP/SFP+/XFP Transceiver Modules Installation Guide and QSFP+ Transceiver

Accessing the IRF fabric to verify the configuration

To verify the basic functionality of the IRF fabric after you finish configuring basic IRF settings and connecting IRF ports:

1. Log in to the IRF fabric through the console port of any member switch.

2. Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote

network management station can reach each other.

3. Use Telnet, web, or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See HP

FlexFabric 5700 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.)

4. Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.

5. Display the running status of the IRF fabric by using the commands in Table 6. Table 6 Displaying and maintaining IRF configuration and runni

Maintenance and troubleshooting

Power supply failure

You can use the LEDs on the power supply to identify a power supply failure. For more information about the LEDs on a power supply, see HP A58x0AF 300W AC (JG900A) & 300W DC (JG901A) Power

Supplies User Guide and HP A58x0AF 650W AC (JC680A) & 650W DC (JC681A) Power Supplies User Guide.

The LEDs on the power supply are steady green (active) or flashing green (standby) while the power supply system is correctly operating. If the LEDs behave in any other way, verify the following items:

• The switch power cord is correctly connected.

• The power source meets the requirement.

• The operating temperature of the switch is in the normal range and the power supply has good

ventilation.

If the problem persists, contact the HP technical support for help.

To replace a power supply, see "Installing/removing a power supply."

Fan tray failure

CAUTION:

• Install two fan trays of the same model on the switch.

• Do not operate the system with one failed fan tray for more than 24 hours.

• Do not remove the failed fan tray until you are ready for replacing it.

• Do not operate the system without any fan tray for more than 2 minutes.

• Do not operate the system outside of the temperature range 0°C to 45°C (32°F to 113°F) degrees.

When a fan tray has problems, the system status LED is steady red and the system outputs alarm messages.

To replace a failed fan tray, see "Installing/removing a fan tray."

Configuration terminal problems

If the configuration environment setup is correct, the configuration terminal displays booting information when the switch 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 switch is powered on, verify the following items:

• The power supply is supplying power to the switch.

• The console cable is correctly connected.

• The console cable has no problem and the terminal settings are correct.

Garbled terminal display

If terminal display is garbled, verify that the following settings are configured for the terminal, for example, HyperTerminal:

• Baud rate—9,600

• Data bits—8

• Parity—none

• Stop bits—1

• Flow control—none

• Emulation—VT100

Compatible standards

To avoid interference between cables, HP recommends that you layer cables as follows:

• Use category-6A or above cables and connectors.

• Do not bundle cables in their first 20 m (65.62 ft).

• Separate power cables and twisted pair cables at and around the distribution frame.

• For ports adjacent to one another on the device, the peer ports on the distribution frame is

preferably not adjacent, for example:

{ If the device connects to one distribution frame, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on the

distribution frame, port 2 on the device to port 3 on the distribution frame, and port 3 on the device to port 5 on the distribution frame.

{ If the device connects to two distribution frames, connect port 1 on the device to port 1 on

distribution frame 1, port 2 on the device to port 1 on distribution frame 2, and port 3 on the device to port 2 on distribution frame 1.

Appendix D Cooling system

The cooling system of the switch includes air vents in the chassis, fan trays, and built-in fans of power supplies. To guarantee that this cooling system can effectively work, you must consider the site ventilation design when you plan the installation site for the switches.

The fan trays in the HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+, HP 5700-48G-4XG-2QSFP+ TAA, HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+, and HP 5700-40XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches must be the same type: LSWM1FANSC or LSWM1FANSCB.

The fan trays in the HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ and HP 5700-32XGT-8XG-2QSFP+ TAA switches must be the same type: LSWM1HFANSC or LSWM1HFANSCB.

When LSWM1FANSC/LSWM1HFANSC fan trays are used, cool air flows in through the air vents in the fan tray panel and the power supply panels, circulates through the chassis and the power supplies, and exhausts at the network port side, as shown in Figure 49.

hen LSWM1FANSCB/LSWM1HFANSCB fan trays are used, cool air flows in through the air vents in the network port-side panel and the power supply panels, circulates through the chassis and the power supplies, and exhausts through the air vents in the fan tray panels, as shown in Figure 50.
