Power Connector

The Switch 5300xl Series do not have a power switch; they are powered on when connected to an active AC power source. The switches automatically adjust to any voltage between 100-127 and 200-240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.

Slot for Redundant Power Supply

A second, load-sharing redundant power supply (ProCurve Switch gl/xl RPS, J4839A) can be installed in the back of the Switch 5300xl Series. To provide true redundancy, this second power supply should be connected to a different AC power source from the other supply. 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 this 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.

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 2-6). Make sure that 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. Please see page

2-5 for some installation precautions.

2. Install switch modules (page 2-8). The Switch 5300xl Series have four or eight universal slots for installing any of the ProCurve Switch xl modules. The Switch 5372xl has three 24-port 10/100-TX xl Modules preinstalled, and the Switch 5348xl has two 24-port 10/100-TX xl Modules preinstalled. Depending on where you will install your Series 5300xl 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.

Installing the Switch 5300xl

Series

Note Make sure you use only ProCurve Switch xl Modules in your Switch 5300xl

Series.

3. (Optional) Install second power supply (page 2-10). The Switch 5300xl Series have a slot in the back for installing a second, load-sharing power supply. If you have purchased this supply, it may be easier to install it before mounting the switch.

4. Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-12). 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.

5. Mount the switch (page 2-14). The Switch 5300xl Series can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, on a wall, or on a horizontal surface. Note that there are some limitations to the wall mounting orientations that are supported. Please see the installation details for more information.

6. Connect power to the switch (page 2-18). Once the switch is mounted, plug it in to the nearby main power source.

7. Connect the network devices (page 2-18). 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 2-18.

Note The 10/100Base-TX ports on the 10/100-TX and PoE xl Modules have the

HP Auto-MDIX feature, and the 100/1000Base-T ports on the 100/1000-T xl Module comply with IEEE 802.3ab standard which includes the Auto MDI/MDI-X feature. These two features operate the same and allow you to use straight-through twisted-pair cable for all of your twisted-pair network connections.

8. (Optional) Connect a console to the switch (page 2-19). You ma y 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.

Installation Precautions

Follow these precautions when installing your Series 5300xl Switch:

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

as possible, with the heaviest device at the bottom and progressively 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 slot. A cover plate is required for safe operation, and to ensure proper switch cooling.

■ 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.

Page 25

Installing the Switch 5300xl Series

Installation Precautions (continued)

Installation Procedures

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 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. 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 40°C (104°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.

■ Ensure that for any switch slot into which no module is installed, the

cover plate is installed to cover the slot. A cover plate is required for safe operation, and to ensure proper switch cooling. For safety, you should never have more than one module slot uncovered at a time while the switch is powered on.

Module Installation Notes

■ Any of the supported Switch xl Modules can be installed in any of the slots.

■ The modules can be “hot swapped”, installed after the switch is already

powered on, and normally will be immediately operational. But, if you are replacing a module with a different type than what was previously installed in the slot, the switch must be rebooted after the module is installed. See “Hot Swapping the Switch Module” on page 2-21.

■ The modules employ “low-force” connectors. Using high force to insert

the modules is not needed and should not be used.

■ Ensure you fully insert the modules. That is, press the module into the slot

until the bulkhead on the module is contacting or is very close to contacting the front face of the switch chassis.

■ Once the module is fully inserted, ensure that you screw in the two

retaining screws to secure the module in place. The screws should be tightened until they are secure, but not overtightened.

■ If you do not use one or more of the slots, ensure the slot cover plate is

still attached over the slot for safe operation and proper switch cooling. For safety, you should not have more than one module slot uncovered at a time.

3. (Optional) Install Second Power Supply

A second, load-sharing redundant power supply (ProCurve Switch gl/xl/vl RPS, J4839A) can be installed in the back of the switch. To provide true redundancy, this second power supply should be connected to a different AC power source from the other supply. Then, if one AC power source fails, the switch will continue to run. Each supply provides enough power to operate a fully loaded switch, so even if one fails, the switch will continue to operate normally.

Install the second power supply into power slot number 2 as shown in the illustration on the next page.

The slot cover can be removed with either a flat-bladed or Torx T-10 screwdriver. Retain the slot cover for future use.

Caution The switch power supplies are hot swappable; they can be installed while the

Series

switch is receiving power from the supply in the other slot. But, as indicated by the caution statement on the power supply, the supply must not be connected to AC power before being installed.

Installing the Switch 5300xl

Caution:

Refer to the installation guide for proper power cord selection.

Disconnect AC power from this power supply BEFORE installing or removing

the supply. Otherwise, damage to the equipment may result.

For safety and proper switch cooling, if either of the power supply slots are not being used, make sure to attach the cover plate over the slot. Please see the “Installation Precautions” on page 2-5 for more information.

For installation details, see the instructions in the manual that comes with the power supply.

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

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

will stay off.

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 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.

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.

Note Ensure the air flow is not restricted around the sides and back of the switch.

Installation Procedures

6. 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 you have installed a redundant power supply module into the switch, it should be connected to a separate AC power source. Then, if there is a power outage from one of the AC sources, the switch will continue to operate by power coming from the other source.

See the ProCurve Switch gl/xl/vl RPS Installation Guide for additional information.

2. Re-check the LEDs during self test. See “LED Behavior” on page 2-13.

7. Connect the Network Devices

The type of network connections you will need to use depends on the types of switch modules you have installed in your Series 5300xl 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.

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 Switch 5300xl Series 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 ProCurve Manager 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

8. (Optional) Connect a Console to the Switch

The Switch 5300xl Series 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 Switch 5300xl Series. 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.

Installing the Switch 5300xl

Series

The Switch 5300xl Series can simultaneously support one out-of-band console session through the Console Port and one in-band telnet session.

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 Func-

tion, Arrow, and Ctrl

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

option for the “Function, arrow, and ctrl keys act as” parameter

Keys for Windows” option

Installation Procedures

If you want to operate the console using a different configuration, ensure you change the settings on both the terminal and on the switch. Change the switch settings first, then change the terminal settings, 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 25pin serial connector, first attach a 9-pin to 25-pin straight-through adapter to the PC end of the console cable.)

2. Turn on the terminal or PC’s power and, if using a PC, start the PC terminal program.

3. Press the Enter key two or three times and 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 CLI prompt.

Telnet Console Access

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 telnet workstation (for example by using a Ping command to the switch’s IP address)

2. Start the telnet program 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 CLI prompt.

Hot Swapping Switch Modules

If you want to continue with console management of the switch at this time through either a direct connection or a telnet session, see chapter 3, “Getting Started With Switch Configuration” for some basic configuration steps. For more detailed information, refer to the Management and Configuration Guide which is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com.

Hot Swapping Switch Modules

The switch modules can be “hot swapped”, that is installed or replaced while the switch is powered on (See Module Installation Notes on page 2-8). The procedures differ slightly, though between adding new modules to an empty slot or replacing modules with the same type, and exchanging the module with a different type.

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 previously installed (since the last switch reboot), the replaced or new module is immediately operational; there is no interruption to the switch operation.

Changing the Module Type

If you exchange a module with a different type of module though, for example a 100/1000-T xl Module is installed in place of a 10/100-TX xl Module that was in the slot, the switch must be rebooted after the new module is installed so the switch processor can properly initialize and configure the new module type.

You can reboot the switch by any of the following methods:

■ Pressing the Reset button on the front of the switch.

■ Unplugging and plugging in the power cord (power cycle). If two power

supplies are installed, both power cords would have to be unplugged.

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

Reboot Switch option from the switch console menu, the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.

Installing the Switch 5300xl

Notice the end node devices are connected to the switch by either straightthrough or crossover twisted-pair cables. Either cable type can be used because of the “HP Auto-MDIX” feature on the 10/100-TX xl Modules and the standard “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature on the 100/1000-T xl Transceiver to which the server is connected. The six twisted-pair ports on the 100/1000-T xl Module also support the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature.

The J8988A module in the Switch 5300xl Series will provide customers with a 10-GbE uplink connection (expected throughput is 2.5 to 7 Gbps, depending on packet size). Traffic from a single MAC SA to a single MAC DA cannot

exceed 1 Gbps. Each Switch 5300xl Series can support up to four J8988A modules. The 10-GbE module supports trunking – however, each trunk will support at most two 10-GbE ports, and 10-GbE ports cannot be mixed with other port speeds in the trunk.

Installing the Switch 5300xl

Series

If more than two J8988A ports are added to an IEEE 802.3ad (LACP) dynamic trunk the remaining ports beyond the first two, as per the LACP specification, are placed in a "standby" mode. All four ports could be placed in a dynamic trunk. Two ports will remain on "standby" and be blocked, and two ports will be added to the dynamic trunk. If one (or both) of the ports in the dynamic trunk are disabled or disconnected, the highest priority "standby" port(s) will then be added to the trunk and the disabled/disconnected port(s) will be removed from the trunk. This works just like 10/100/1000 ports.

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 ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com.

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.

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 ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com.

For more information on IP addressing, refer to “IP Configuration” in the Management and Configuration Guide.

3-1

Page 48

Getting Started With Switch 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 ProCurve Web site,

www.procurve.com.

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:

ProCurve Switch 5308xl

2. At the prompt, enter the setup command to display the Switch Setup screen. The following illustration is an example of a Setup screen with default settings.

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Using the IP Address for Remote Switch Management

With your Switch 5300xl Series, 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):

ProCurve Switch 5308xl#

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 Series 5300xl 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.

Configuring the ProCurve Access Controller xl Module (J8162A)

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring the ProCurve Access Controller xl Module (J8162A)

Before beginning the configuration, backup current configurations of all devices. The Access Control Serer (740wl) and the Integrated Access Manager (760wl) software must be updated to version 4.1.3.x or later and the 5300xl switch software must be updated to version E.09.2x or later.

There are three phases of configuration:

■ configuration of the 740wl/760wl

■ configuration of the module

■ configuration of the 5300xl switch

740wl/760wl Configuration

HP recommends the use of a static IP address for the 740wl/760wl. If the IP address of the 740wl/760wl should change, access controller xl modules and 720wl Access Controllers would need to be reconfigured. Record this information, you will need it to configure the module. You also need to configure a shared secret on the 740wl/760wl. Refer to the documentation that came with that unit.

Module Configuration

Getting Started With Switch

Configuration

Once the module has been installed into the 5300xl switch you need to configure it to enable communication with the 740wl/760wl. The module requires an IP address. By default the module uses DHCP to obtain an IP address. ProCurve recommends using DHCP to configure the module’s IP address. If you need to configure a specific IP address for the module, do the following:

From the CLI command prompt at the global configuration level

ProCurve Switch 5308xl (config) #

enter access-controller<slot ID>

where <slot ID> is the slot letter (A-H) where the module is installed.

To configure the module’s IP address enter ip address <IP> <mask>

where <IP> is the selected address and <mask> is the selected mask. CIDR

notation “/mask bit number” (for example 10.1.1.1/24) is an acceptable shortcut for the IP address mask combination.

3-7

Page 54

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring the ProCurve Access Controller xl Module (J8162A)

Next, configure the module with the IP address of the 740wl/760wl and its shared secret.

access-control-server ip <ip address> secret <shared secret> <shared secret>

The shared secret and IP address here are what you configured on the 740wl/ 760wl above. You enter the shared secret twice to ensure you typed it correctly. The shared secret is case sensitive. This command tells the Access Controller xl Module where the Access Control Server (740wl) or Integrated Access Manager (760wl) is and allows secure communication between the module and the 740wl/760wl. The following is an example command.

access-control-server ip 13.13.13.8 secret 7734Oh 7734Oh

Wait a few moments for the module to connect to the 740wl/760wl over the network. To confirm that the module has connected successfully, enter the following command:

show status

Uptime: 23 hrs, 12 mins

Access Controller Function Access Control Server: 13.13.13.8 Connected: 2 secs Active Clients: None

When the connection is complete between the 740wl/760wl and the Access Controller xl Module, control of the module is turned over to the 740wl/760wl. For more information on managing the module, see the documentation that came with the 740wl/760wl.

Configuring the ProCurve Access Controller xl Module (J8162A)

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

5300xl Switch Configuration

Configuring the switch consists of assigning switch ports as client downlink ports and reviewing the uplink VLAN used by the module. The client downlink ports connect the module to clients, for example, access points. The uplink VLAN connects the module to the rest of the network and the 740wl/760wl. By default, it is assigned to the default_VLAN.

To configure client downlink ports, from the CLI command prompt at the global configuration level

ProCurve Switch 5308xl (config) #

enter access-controller<slot ID> client-ports <port list>

where <slot ID> is the slot letter where the module is installed. where <port list> is the port(s) to be used as client downlink ports.

Each client downlink port is assigned to a separate, automatically created VLAN.

Note If a port is already assigned to an untagged VLAN, it is reassigned as an

untagged member of the new VLAN. If a port is a tagged member of an existing VLAN, it joins the new VLAN as an untagged member, while retaining its previous tagged VLAN membership.

Getting Started With Switch

If you receive a message ‘Command will take effect after saving configuration and reboot.’ use write memory to save the configuration and reload to reboot the switch. If you have additional client ports to configure do so now, then save the configuration and reload the switch.

To change the uplink VLAN from the default_VLAN, enter the configuration context for the new VLAN at the global configuration level

ProCurve Switch 5308xl (config) # vlan <vid>

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Modules (J9001A, J9003A)

Before beginning the configuration, backup the current configuration of the switch. The 5300xl switch software must be updated to version E.10.30 or later. The ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module (J9001A) and the ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services xl Module (J9003A) must be running software version WS.01.03 or later.

Note The term ‘module’ is used in this section to refer to both the ProCurve Wireless

Edge Services xl Module (J9001A) and the ProCurve Redundant Wireless Services xl Module (J9003A).

There are four module configuration tasks required:

■ configuring an IP address for the module

■ configuring VLANs on the 5300xl switch

■ determining a module configuration backup process

■ configuring wireless LAN services

Configuring an IP Address for the Module

By default, the module uses DHCP to get an IP address. The 5300xl switch CLI has a command context, the wireless services context (accessed from the CLI’s config context), for configuring and managing a module.

Getting Started With Switch

Configuration

Note ‘ProCurve’ is used here as a generic prompt for all 5300xl switches.

To show the module’s IP address, first enter the CLI config context on the 5300xl switch, then enter the following command to access the module’s wireless services CLI context for the module:

ProCurve (config)# wireless-services <slot-id>

where <slot-id> is the slot in the 5300xl where the module is installed.

To display the module’s IP address, enter:

ProCurve (wireless-services-id)# show ip interfaces

The following example enters the wireless services context of a module installed in Slot B of a 5300xl switch and then displays the IP address assigned by DHCP to the module:

ProCurve# configure ProCurve(config)# wireless-services b ProCurve(wireless-services-B)#show ip interface Interface IP-Address Status Protocol vlan1 10.35.12.24(DHCP) up up ProCurve(wireless-services-B)#

If no DHCP service is available or if the administrator wishes to manually set the Wireless Edge Services xl Module IP Address, it can be specified using the CLI. From the wireless services context, enter the config context and then configure the vlan1 interface. Use the following command to set the IP address:

ProCurve(wireless-services-<slot-id>)(config-if)# ip address <IP>

where <slot-id> is the slot in the 5300xl where the module is installed. where <IP> is the IP address in CIDR notation (/mask bit number) or

dhcp which uses a DHCP client to obtain an IP address.

In the following example, the CLI commands set the module’s IP address to

10.245.22.14 with a 21-bit subnet mask.

ProCurve(wireless-services-B)#configure ProCurve(wireless-services-B)(config)#interface vlan1 ProCurve(wireless-services-B)(config-if)#ip address 10.245.22.14/21 ProCurve(wireless-services-B)(config-if)#show ip interface Interface IP-Address Status Protocol

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring VLANs on the 5300xl Switch

In a wireless services-enabled 5300xl switch, the Wireless Edge Services xl Module and the Redundant Wireless Services xl Module use ports on the switch to pass wired and wireless traffic to and from the network. An uplink VLAN, containing the module’s uplink port, communicates with the wired side of the network; downlink radio port VLANs, containing the module’s downlink port, communicate with the wireless side of the network.

See the Wireless Edge Services xl Module Supplement to the ProCurve 6400cl/ 5300xl/3400cl Management and Configuration Guide for detailed information on the set up and configuration of VLANs for module communication.

Determining a Module Configuration Backup Process

The module’s configuration files are stored on the module, not on the 5300xl switch, unlike other 5300xl modules. An external FTP or TFTP server must be used to back up and restore a module’s complete configuration.

The switch does save a small subset of the module’s configuration that allows the switch to locate the full configuration file on the external FTP or TFTP server and to validate it using a checksum. The stored subset of a module’s configuration file appears in a show running-config or show config command as uneditable text.

Getting Started With Switch

For more information on configuring and managing configuration files on an external FTP or TFTP server see the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Modules Management and Configuration Guide.

Configuring Wireless LAN Services

To configure wireless LAN services on a wireless services-enabled 5300xl switch use one of the following management interfaces for the module:

■ Web browser interface—Accessed through a Web browser, this intu-

itive interface provides comprehensive information to help you manage and monitor your company’s wireless services. The menus and online help guide you through configuration steps. See the

ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Modules Management and Configuration Guide for information on using the Web browser

interface to configure and manage a module.

Getting Started With Switch Configuration

Configuring the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Modules (J9001A, J9003A)

To run the Web browser interface for the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Module, your workstation must be running Java Virtual Machine (JVM). If your workstation is not running the JVM and you attempt to open the module’s Web browser interface, the workstation will automatically try to access the Internet and download the JVM.

■ Command line interface (CLI)—Available through a serial, Telnet, or

Secure Shell (SSH) session to the 5300xl switch, the wireless services context, accessed from the 5300xl’s CLI config context, provides a complete set of commands to configure, manage, and troubleshoot your wireless services.

The CLI commands available in the wireless services context of the 5300xl CLI are documented in an appendix of the ProCurve Wireless Edge Services xl Modules Management and Configuration Guide. Refer to this manual for more information.

Because the Web browser interface simplifies both management and configuration tasks, this interface is recommended.

Troubleshooting

This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your Switch 5300xl Series. Note that this document describes troubleshooting mostly from a hardware perspective. You can perform more in-depth troubleshooting 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 on “Troubleshooting” in the Management and Configuration Guide that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com.

This chapter describes the following:

■ basic troubleshooting tips (page 4-1)

■ diagnosing with the LEDs (page 4-4)

■ Proactive Networking tools (page 4-9)

■ hardware diagnostic tests (page 4-10)

■ restoring the factory default configuration (page 4-12)

■ downloading new code (page 4-13)

■ HP Customer Support Services (page 4-13)

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, “Switch Ports and Network Cables” for pinouts and correct cable wiring. A category 5 cable tester is a recommended tool for every 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T network installation.

4-1

Troubleshooting

Page 62

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.

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 Switch 5300xl Series, 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 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 ProCurve Manager.

The Switch 5300xl Series 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 that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com for more information on Spanning Tree and on Trunking.

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

The RJ-45 ports on the Switch 5300xl Series 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 Switch 5300xl Series 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 communications between the switch and the device.

Ensure that all devices connected to the Switch 5300xl Series are configured to auto negotiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex (all

Troubleshooting

hubs are configured this way, for example).

Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Troubleshooting

If necessary though, you can modify the configuration of the ports on the Switch 5300xl Series to match the configuration of the connected device. Use the switch console, the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager to modify the port configuration.

■ Check the port configuration. A port on your Series 5300xl 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 that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com for more information.

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 Web site,

Problem Solution

The power suppli es installed in the switch are not plugged into active AC power sources, or the power sup ply 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 HP-authorized LAN dealer, 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 HP-authorized LAN dealer, 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 r emainder 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 your HP-authorized LAN dealer, 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 flashing is an invalid module.

The fact that the Link and Mode LEDs never are lit on the module indicates that it is a ProCurve Switch gl or vl module and should not be used in your xl switch.

Ensure you have installed an xl module in the slot. ProCurve gl and vl modules will fit in the sl ot, but they are not compatible with your ProCurve

xl switch. Check to e nsure the module has a magenta “xl module ” symbol on it.

Remove the module from the switch and replace it with an xl 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 HP-authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from HP to get information on supported Switch xl modules. The modules that are available as of the printing of this manual are listed on page 1-10.

Problem Solution

The module installed in the slot that corresponds to the letter that is flashing 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 Reboot 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 Hewlett-Packard introduces new modules for your ProCurve Switch xl, 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 Switch xl, as of the printing of this manual, are listed on

page 1-10 under “Switch Features”. The latest code can be downloaded from the

ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com. 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 page 1-10, check 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 do wn 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 fro m the switch and replace it with another module, or recover the slot with the cover plate. Call your HP-authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty card for more information.

➏

In the slot corresponding to the letter that is flashing, a module was installed th at is a different type than the previously installed module, and the switch has not yet been reset.

When you “hot swap” modules in the switch slots, if you install a different module type than the one that was previously installed in the slot, you must reset the switch so the switch processor can properly initialize and configure the new module type. The flashing LED informs you that this change of module types has occurred. The module will not work properly until the switch is reset.

You can reset the switch by any of these methods:

• pressing the Reset button.

• power cycling the switch.

• selecting the reset or reboot option from the console, web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.

Problem Solution

The network port for which the Link LED is flashing 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 flashing 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 mini-GBIC, verify it is one of the mini-GBICs supported by the mini-GBIC xl Module. Unsupported mini-GBICs will be identified with this fault condition. The supported mini-GBICs are listed in the module Installation Guide. The mini-GBICs are also tested when they are “hot-swapped”--installed or changed after the mini-GBIC xl 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 mini-GBICs, you can just remove and reinstall the mini-GBIC with out having to remove the module. If the port fault indication reo ccurs, and you need to be able to use the port, you will have to replace the mini-GBIC or the module. In the mean time, all the other module ports will operate normally.

Try removing and reinstalling the power supply. Caution: Ensure the AC power cord is disconnec ted from the supply bef ore removing

and reinstalling the supply. Reconnect the power supply to the AC powe r source. If the error indication reoccurs

after the supply is reinstalled, the power supply may be faulty. Call your HPauthorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty card for more information.

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

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

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, the switch should be replaced. Contact your HP-authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty card for more information.

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 flashing 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.

Problem Solution

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 page B-4 for more information.

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 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 al so MUST be configured as “Auto”. Depend ing 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.

Proactive Networking

The Switch 5300xl Series 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 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 or Netscape Communicator.

■ 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.

See the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the Management and Configuration Guide that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com, for more informa- tion on using these software tools to diagnose and manage your switch.

Hardware Diagnostic Tests

Testing the Switch by Resetting It

If you believe that 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

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

or ProCurve Manager.

Power cycling the switch, pressing the 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 Self 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 flashing, the switch, or a module, or an individual mini-GBIC may have to be replaced as indicated by the LEDs.

See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 4-4 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 2-19. 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 Switch 5300xl Series must be compatible with these standards.To verify your cable is compatible with these standards, use a qualified cable test device.

HP also offers a wire testing service. Contact your HP-authorized LAN dealer or your local HP 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 that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com for more informa- tion.

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 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

As part of your troubleshooting process, it may become necessary to return the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This process momentarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any password s, 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 that is on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com on this command.

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 Self 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.

Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements. The Category 5 networking cables that work for 100Base-TX connections should also work for

Switch Ports and Network

1000Base-T, as long as all four-pairs are connected. But, for the most robust connections you should use cabling that complies with the Category 5e specifications, as described in Addendum 5 to the TIA-568-A standard (ANSI/ TIA/EIA-568-A-5).

Because of the increased speed provided by 1000Base-T (Gigabit-T), network cable quality is more important than for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX. Site cabling that is being used to carry 1000Base-T networking must comply with the IEEE 802.3ab standards. In particular, the cabling must pass tests for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT). Additionally, unlike the cables for 100Base-TX, the 1000Base-T cables must pass tests for Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT), Multiple Disturber ELFEXT, and Return Loss.

When testing your cabling, be sure to include the patch cables that connect the switch and other end devices to the patch panels on your site. The patch cables are frequently overlooked when testing cable and they must also comply with the cabling standards.

Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs

The HP Auto-MDIX Feature. In the default configuration, “Auto”, the 10/100Base-TX ports on the 10/100-TX and PoE xl Modules used in the Switch 5300xl Series all automatically detect the type of port on the connected device and operate as either an MDI or MDI-X port, whichever is appropriate. So for any connection, a straight-through twisted-pair cable can be used -- you no longer have to use crossover cables, although crossover cables can also be used for any of the connections. The 100/1000-T xl Module supports the IEEE

802.3ab standard, which includes the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature, which operates the same way.

Page 81

Switch Ports and Network Cables

Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs

Note HP Auto-MDIX was developed and shared with the IEEE for the development

of the IEEE 802.3ab standard. HP Auto-MDIX and the IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI/ MDI-X feature are completely compatible.

If you connect a Series 5300xl Switch twisted-pair port to another switch or hub, which typically have MDI-X ports, the Series 5300xl Switch port automatically operates as an MDI port. If you connect it to an end node, such as a server or PC, which typically have MDI ports, the Series 5300xl Switch port operates as an MDI-X port. In all cases, you can use standard straight through cables.

If you happen to use a correctly wired crossover cable, though, the switch will still be able to automatically detect the MDI/MDI-X operation and link correctly to the connected device.

If the port configuration is changed to any of the fixed configurations though, for example 100 Mbps/full duplex, the port operates as MDI-X only and the correct cable type must be used. In general, for connections to MDI ports, such as end nodes, use a straight-through cable; for connections to MDIX ports, such as on hubs and other switches, use a crossover cable.

Other Wiring Rules:

■ All twisted-pair wires used for 10 Mbps, and 100 Mbps operation must be

twisted through the entire length of the cable. The wiring sequence must conform to EIA/TIA 568-B (not USOC). See the Pin Assignment tables below the cable illustrations later in this appendix for a listing of the signals used on each pin.

■ For 1000Base-T connections, all four pairs of wires in the cable must be

available for data transmission. See “Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements” on page B-2 for more information on 1000Base-T cabling.

■ For 10 Mbps connections to the ports, you can use Category 3, 4, or 5

100-ohm differential unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) or shielded twistedpair (STP) cable, as supported by the IEEE 802.3 10Base-T standard.

■ For 100 Mbps connections to the ports, use Category 5 100-ohm differen-

tial UTP or STP cable only, as supported by the IEEE 802.3u 100Base-TX standard.

■ For 1000 Mbps connections, Category 5 or better 100-ohm differential UTP

or STP cable only, as supported by the IEEE 802.3ab 1000Base-T standard; Category 5e or better is recommended.

Because of the HP Auto-MDIX operation of the 10/100 ports on the switches, for all network connections, to PCs, servers or other end nodes, or to hubs or other switches, you can use straight-through cables.

If any of these ports are given a fixed configuration, for example 100 Mbps/ Full Duplex, the ports operate as MDI-X ports, and straight-through cables must be then used for connections to PC NICs and other MDI ports.
