Throughout this manual, this switch will be abbreviated as the Switch 3500yl24G, Switch 3500yl-48G or Switch 6200yl-24G.
The Switch 3500yl-24G and Switch 3500yl-48G have respectively, 24 or 48,
auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-TX RJ-45 ports, four dual-personality ports—
either auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 or mini-GBIC.
1-1
Introducing the Switch
One slot is provided in the back of the device to support a four port (two fixed
CX4 ports and two X2 transceiver ports) 10 Gigabit per second Ethernet (10GbE) module to provide box connectivity to other switch boxes, to a 10
Gigabit per second concentrator or to any Ethernet compatible uplink.
The Series 3500yl Switches are also designed to support Power over Ethernet
(PoE) technology. The switches support 802.3af standard devices and some
pre-standard PoE devices. For a list of these devices, see the FAQs for your
switch model. This feature is the default and you must disable it if you do not
Introducing the Switch
want to use it. (Refer to the Management and Configuration Guide which is
on the ProCurve Web site,www.procurve.com. (See page 5-1 for details.)
The dual-personality ports have either auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45,
or mini-GBIC connectivity. The mini-GBIC ports do not support PoE. If any of
the mini-GBIC ports are used the corresponding RJ-45 port will not be supplied
with PoE power and will be disabled. For more information regarding the PoE
capabilities of the Series 3500yl Switches, see the ProCurve Power over
Ethernet (PoE) for zl and yl Products Planning and Implementation Guide.
The Series 3500yl Switches can be connected to a ProCurve 620 Redundant
and External Power Supply (RPS/EPS) and receive redundant power from
that unit. If the internal power supply in the switch fails, the RPS/EPS unit will
immediately provide all the power necessary to keep the switch running. This
includes power to run the switch and PoE power. If maximum PoE power is
being used on all 48 ports, a 620 RPS/EPS is necessary just to provide full
power to the second 24 ports, and in this case, there is no redundancy.
1-2
The Series 6200yl Switch can be connected to the ProCurve 620 Redundant
and External Power Supply (RPS/EPS) and receive redundant power from
that unit. If the internal power supply in the switch fails, the RPS/EPS unit will
immediately provide all the power necessary to keep the switch running. This
only includes power to run the switch. The 6200yl does not support PoE power.
These switches are designed to be used primarily as a high-density wiring
closet or desktop switch. These switches can directly connect computers,
printers, and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and
can build a switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs,
other switches, or routers. In addition, the Series 3500yl Switches offer full
network management capabilities.

Network Ports
■24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T ports.
All these ports have the “HP Auto MDIX” feature, which means you can
use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair cables to connect
any network devices to the switch.
■On the Series 3500yl devices there are four dual-personality ports. Use
either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector, or install a supported
ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic connections.
1-4
The RJ-45 connectors support the IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X feature, which
means you can use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair
cables to connect any network device to the switch.
Dual-Personality Port Operation. By default, the RJ-45 connectors are
enabled. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, it is enabled and the associated RJ-45 connector is disabled and cannot be used. If the mini-GBIC is
removed, the associated RJ-45 port is automatically re-enabled.
The RJ-45 connector also supplies PoE power until a mini-GBIC is
installed. The PoE power is turned off when a mini-GBIC is plugged in.
■One, 10 gigabit expansion slot. These switches provide a single slot in the
back of the device that can accept a 4 x 10 gigabit transceiver module. The
module provides four 10 gigabit ports. The module provides either copper
or fiber optic media that conforms to the gigabit Ethernet standard as well
as dual 10 gigabit copper or uplink ports.

Introducing the Switch
Front of the Switch
Clear Button
This button is used for these purposes:
■Deleting Passwords - When pressed by itself for at least one second, the
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, any configuration changes you may
have made through the switch console, the web browser interface, and
SNMP management are removed, and the factory default configuration is
restored to the switch. For the specific method to restore the factory
default configuration, see “Restoring the Factory Default Configuration”
on page 11, in chapter 4, “Troubleshooting” of this manual.
Expansion Module LEDs
“Expansion Module” LEDs refer to the LEDs specific to the expansion module.
These LEDs are located on the physical expansion module bulkhead. These
LEDs are only viewable in the rear of the Switch 3500yl-48G product on the

PoE power is being used on all 48 ports, a 620 RPS/EPS will be necessary to
provide full power to the second 24 ports, and in this case, there would be no
redundancy.
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 “Connect a
Console to the Switch” in chapter 2, “Installing the Switch.” The console can
be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator, or a VT-100
terminal. The console port is located on the front of the 3500yl-24G and 6200yl24G, and on the back of the 3500yl-48G.
Power Connector
The Series 3500yl and 6200yl Switches do not have a power switch; they are
powered on when connected to an active AC power source. These switches
automatically adjust to any voltage between 100--240 volts and either 50 or 60
Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.

Introducing the Switch
Switch Features
Switch Features
The features of the Series 3500yl and 6200yl Switches include:
■24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports with HP Auto-MDIX.
■Four dual-personality ports—either the auto sensing 10/100/1000Base-T
RJ-45 or the mini-GBIC can be used for each port.
■The 6200yl provides 24 mini-GBIC ports.
■One slot (optional yl module slot) is provided in the back of the device to
support a series of transceivers to provide connectivity to other switch
boxes, to a 10 Gig concentrator or to any Ethernet compatible uplink.
■The auxiliary port is reserved for future development.
■The Switches can be connected to a ProCurve RPS/EPS and receive
redundant power from that unit. If the internal power supply in the switch
fails, the RPS/EPS unit will immediately provide all the power necessary
to keep the switch running.
■Power over Ethernet (PoE) operation—the 3500yl switches are IEEE
802.af compliant and provide up to 15.4 W per port to power IP phones,
wireless access points, web cameras, and more. For more information,
see the PoE Planning and Implementation Guide for zl and yl Products.
■Plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the
network cables to active network devices and your switched network is
operational.
■IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI/MDI-X on all 10/100/1000 twisted-pair ports,
meaning that all connections can be made using straight-through
twisted-pair cables. Cross-over cables are not required, although they
will also work. The pin operation of each port is automatically adjusted
for the attached device: if the switch detects that another switch or hub
is connected to the port, it configures the port as MDI; if the switch detects
that an end-node device is connected to the port, it configures the port as
MDI-X.
■Automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000-
■Automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the 10/100/1000 RJ-45
ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices—the mini-GBIC
ports always operate at full duplex.
■Easy management of the switch through several available interfaces:
•console interface—a full featured, easy to use, VT-100 terminal
interface that is especially good for out-of-band switch management
or for Telnet access to the switch.

Installation Procedures
Installation Procedures
Summary
1.Prepare the installation site (page 2-5). Ensure the physical environment is properly prepared, including having the correct network cabling
ready to connect to the switch and having an appropriate location for the
switch. See page 2-4 for some installation precautions.
2.Install or remove a yl module (optional—page 2-7).
3.Install or remove a transceiver (optional—(page 2-8). If you have
installed a yl module, you can now install one or two transceivers.
4.Install or remove mini-GBICs (optional—page 2-9). The switch has
four slots for installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you will mount
the switch, it may be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Mini-GBICs can
be installed or removed while the switch is powered on.
5.Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-11). Plug the switch into a
power source and observe that the LEDs on the switch’s front panel
indicate correct switch operation. When self test is complete, unplug the
switch.
6.Mount the switch (page 2-13). The Switch can be mounted in a 19-inch
telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, or on a horizontal surface.
7.Connect the switch to a power source (page 2-15). Once the switch is
mounted, plug it into the nearby main power source.
8.Connect the network cables (page 2-16). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect the network devices to the switch ports.
9.Connect a 620 RPS/EPS (optional—page 2-18). You may wish to use
a 620 RPS/EPS with your switch. To do so you must connect the external
power supply using the RPS or EPS cables supplied with the 620 RPS/EPS.
10. Connect a console to the switch (optional—page 2-22). 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, from an SNMP network
management station, or through a Telnet session. Configuration changes
can be made easily by using the included console cable to connect a PC
to the switch’s console port.
Installing the Switch
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.

Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
Installation Precautions:
Follow these precautions when installing the Series 3500yl or 6200yl Switches.
WARNING■The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable and/or falling over.
■Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as
possible, with the heaviest devices at the bottom and progressively
lighter devices installed above.
■Neither the Right or Left sides of the switch can be placed down-
ward. (That is, the right or left side of the unit while facing the
front.)
Cautions■If the switch is to be shipped in a rack, be sure to use only an HP 10K rack.
Mount the switch using rail kit part number 356578-B21 and shelf kit
AB469A. Both kits must be used. Otherwise you will void the warranty.
■Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the
power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power source.
Installing the Switch
■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, the AC outlet should be near the switch and
should be easily accessible in case the switch must be powered off.
■Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-
current protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply
circuits, add together the ampere ratings of all devices installed on the
same circuit as the switch and compare the total with the rating limit for
the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the
devices near the AC power connectors.
■Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient
temperature might exceed 55°C (131°F)
■Ensure the air flow around the sides and back of the switch is not

When the switch is powered on, it performs its diagnostic self test. Self
test takes approximately 50 seconds to complete.
Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
LED Behavior:
During the self test:
•Initially, all the status, LED Mode and port LEDs are on for most of
the duration of the test.
•Most of the LEDs go off and then may come on again during phases
of the self test. For the duration of the self test, the Test LED stays on.
When the self test completes successfully:
•The Power and Fan Status LEDs remain on.
•The Fault and Test LEDs go off.
•The port LEDs on the front of the switch go into their normal operational mode:
–If the ports are connected to active network devices, the LEDs
behave according to the LED Mode selected. In the default view
mode (Link), the LEDs should be on.
–If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs
will stay off.
If the LED display is different than what is described above, especially if
the Fault and Test LEDs stay on for more than 60 seconds or they start
blinking, the self test has not completed correctly. Refer to chapter 4,
“Troubleshooting” for diagnostic help.

Installation Procedures
9. (Optional) Connect a 620 Redundant Power Supply
to the switch
The ProCurve 620 Redundant and External Power Supply, (J8696A), hereafter
referred to as the 620 RPS/EPS, is an accessory product for the Series 3500yl
and 6200yl switches and specific other ProCurve switches. The 620 RPS/EPS
provides two types of power to the switches:
■Redundant power to two switches, to back up the internal switch power
supply in case of AC power loss, or a fault condition. Should the internal
switch power supply fail, power will be supplied from the 620 RPS/EPS.
■External Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) power to up to two switch products.
The 620 RPS/EPS can supply 398 watts of PoE power to the switch if the
internal PoE power supply should fail. For the Switch 3500yl-48G-PWR
the external PoE power is additional power made available to the switch’s
ports. For further information regarding the 620 RPS/EPS PoE capabilities, see the ProCurve Power over Ethernet (PoE) for zl and yl Products
Planning and Implementation Guide and the ProCurve 620 Redundant
and External Power Supply Installation and Getting Started Guide,
which are on the ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com.
See page 5-1 for details.
The 620 RPS/EPS is an unmanaged power supply that only provides information by way of LEDs.
2-18
RPS/EPS Operation
The RPS/EPS monitors the power signal from the switch by detecting that the
RPS/EPS is connected to a valid switch with an RPS/EPS cable. When the
power from the switch is no longer detected, the RPS/EPS will turn on and
provide power to the switch within 1 millisecond.
The RPS/EPS supports hot plugging of the RPS cable only, Hot disconnect of
the EPS (PoE power) cable is not supported, and could cause loss of power
to the switch. The EPS cable can be connected at any time. The RPS/EPS unit
must be powered down in order to unplug the EPS (PoE power) cable, if power
is flowing.
Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
Operating Characteristics of the 620 RPS/EPS (J8696A)
The 620 RPS/EPS has two RPS ports, each of which can provide redundant
+12V power to a connected switch. If a switch with no AC power is connected
to an operating 620 RPS/EPS, it will not receive power. The switch must first
be powered on, then connected to the 620 RPS/EPS.
The 620 RPS/EPS also has two EPS Ports. The 620 RPS/EPS can provide a
maximum of 398 watts of PoE power to each of the two EPS ports. It is
important to understand the PoE power requirements of the 3500yl-PWR
Series switches because if the PoE power is not planned and implemented
correctly the end devices connected to the switch ports may not receive power
if an internal switch PoE power supply should fail. For further information
regarding the 620 RPS/EPS PoE capabilities, see the ProCurve Power over Ethernet (PoE) for zl and yl Products Planning and Implementation Guide
and the ProCurve 620 Redundant and External Power Supply Installation and Getting Started Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site. See page 5-1
for details.
For redundant AC power, connect the 620 RPS/EPS to the switch using one
of the supplied RPS cables. For redundant or additional PoE power, connect
the 620 RPS/EPS to the switch using one of the supplied EPS cables. The RPS
and EPS cables are 2.00 meters (6.56 feet) in length. These cables are identical.
If accidentally cross connected, nothing will happen. No power will flow until
properly connected.

Installation Procedures
620 RPS/EPS Connectivity
This section shows some recommended connection topologies using the 620
RPS/EPS. The 620 RPS/EPS can provide backup power support for up to two
ProCurve switches. In the illustration below, two ProCurve Switch 3500yl24G-PWR units are connected to the RPS ports on a 620 RPS/EPS.
Figure 2-13. Connecting RPS to 2, 24 port switches.
The 620 RPS/EPS is designed to provide primary or backup power to up to
two ProCurve PoE switches. In the following illustration, two ProCurve
Switch 3500yl-24G-PWR units are being supplied with external PoE power
from an 620 RPS/EPS. The switches provide PoE power to Ethernet devices
connected to their ports.

Installation Procedures
10. (Optional) Connect a Console to the Switch
The switch has a full-featured, easy to use console interface for performing
switch management tasks including the following:
■monitor switch and port status and observe network activity statistics
■modify the switch’s configuration to optimize switch performance,
enhance network traffic control, and improve network security
■read the event log and access diagnostic tools to help in troubleshooting
■download new software to the switch
■add passwords to control access to the switch from the console, web
browser interface, and network management stations
The console can be accessed through these methods:
■Out-of-band: The switch comes with a serial cable for connecting a PC
or VT-100 terminal, to be used as a console, directly to the switch.
■In-Band: Access the console using Telnet from a PC or UNIX station on
the network, and a VT-100 terminal emulator. This method requires that
you first configure the switch with an IP address and subnet mask by using
either out-of-band console access or through DHCP/Bootp. For more
information on IP addressing and on starting a Telnet session, see
chapter 3, “Getting Started With Switch Configuration”, and the Man-
agement and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site,
www.procurve.com. (See page 5-1 for details.)
2-22
The Switch can simultaneously support one out-of-band console session
through the Console Port and one in-band Telnet console session.
Terminal Configuration
To connect a console to the switch, configure the PC terminal emulator as a
DEC VT-100 (ANSI) terminal or use a VT-100 terminal, and configure either
one to operate with these settings:
■any baud rate from 1200 to 115200 (the switch senses the speed)
■8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and flow control set to Xon/Xoff
■for the Windows Terminal program, also disable (uncheck) the “Use
Function, Arrow, and C
■for the Hilgraeve HyperTerminal program, select the “Terminal keys”
option for the “Function, Arrow, and C
If you want to operate the console using a different configuration, make sure
you change the settings on both the terminal and on the switch so they are
compatible. Change the switch settings first, save your changes, then change
the terminal settings, then reboot the switch and reestablish the console
session.

As shown in the above illustration the IP telephones can be connected in line,
that is, between the switch and the end device, in this case a PC. The IP
telephones in this illustration have two ports, one in and one out. Therefore
the phone receives voice and power from the switch and the PC can send and
receive data through the phone to the switch.

The Switch also works well as a segment switch. That is, with its high
performance, it can be used for interconnecting network segments—simply
connect the network hubs that form those segments to the switch, or you can
also connect other switches.
In the illustration above, two “Fast” Ethernet hubs with PCs, printers, and local
servers attached, are both connected to a Switch. The devices attached to the
two hubs can now communicate with each other through the switch. They can
also all communicate with the server that is connected to a 1000Base-T port
on the switch.
Installing the Switch
Sample Network Topologies
Because the Switch has the “IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X” features, the connections
between the switch and the hubs, and between the switch and end nodes or
servers can be through category 5 straight-through or crossover twisted-pair
cable. Category 3 or 4 cable can also be used if the connection is 10 Mbps only.
In all cases, the device ports must be configured to auto negotiate the link
characteristics for this feature to work.
The switch, in turn, can be connected to a network backbone through fiberoptic cabling connected to a Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH mini-GBIC installed in the
switch. Now, all the devices on these network segments can access other
network resources that are connected elsewhere on the network backbone.

The simpler desktop and segment networks shown in the previous two
examples can easily be combined and expanded. For example, you could use
an ProCurve Switch 5304xl to interconnect each of your smaller switched
workgroups to form a larger switched network. All the devices in this network
can communicate with each other. With a Gigabit-SX Module, for example, in
the Switch 5304xl, the entire switched topology could be connected to a
campus backbone, as shown in figure 2-3.

Sample Network Topologies
NoteIn the Backbone Switch illustration, the 1000 Mbps fiber-optic connection
between the Switch 3500yl-24G and the Switch 5304xl is by way of a GigabitSX mini-GBIC installed in the Switch 3500yl-24G and connected to a GigabitSX Module in the Switch 5304xl.
Stacking the Switch
The Series 3500yl Switches can be connected together, through standard
network connections, and managed through a single IP address. Up to 16
switches can be connected together in such a “virtual stack”.
LEGEND:
Gigabit Ethernet cable
ProCurve Switch 3500yl-48G
ProCurve Switch 3500yl-24G
Through switch console commands, you can identify one of the switches as
the “Commander” and give that switch an IP address. Up to 15 other switches
in the network can then easily be configured as Members of the stack and
managed through the Commander’s IP address. The management includes
Telnet access and web browser interface access to the Commander and to
each Member switch through the Commander.
For more information on stacking Switches, please see the Management and
Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site at

Optimizing the 10-GbE Port Configuration
The 10-GbE ports on the ProCurve Switch 3500yl and 6200yl series are
designed to deliver full 10 Gbps wire-speed to each port, where either one or
two ports are in a linked state with another device. When three or four 10-GbE
ports are in a linked state, the 10-GbE ports support an aggregate bandwidth
of 28.8 Gbps across the linked ports.
Installing the Switch
As illustrated in the figure below, internally, there are two 14.4-Gbps channels
between each of the 4 10-GbE ports and the switch fabric.

Sample Network Topologies
When any two 10-GbE ports are in a linked state, each port automatically
operates on its own channel, which guarantees 10 Gbps of bandwidth for each
port. However, when more than two ports are in a linked state, ports A1 and
A4 are statically mapped to share one 14.4 Gbps channel, while ports A2 and
A3 are statically mapped to share the other 14.4 Gbps channel.
To summarize:
■If only one port in a given channel is in a linked state, then that port
operates at wire speed and the other port uses no bandwidth.
■If both ports in a given channel are in a linked state, then the 14.4 Gbps of
bandwidth is balanced fairly between the two ports.
For example, in an application where three ports are needed and it is important to ensure that port 1 always has a full 10 Gbps available, the connection
choices shown in the next figure would be used.

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 at www.procurve.com.
See page 5-1 for details.
Recommended Minimal Configuration
In the factory default configuration, the switch has no IP (Internet Protocol)
address and subnet mask, and no passwords. In this state, it can be managed
only through a direct console connection. To manage the switch through inband (networked) access, you should configure the switch with an IP address
and subnet mask compatible with your network. Also, you should configure
a Manager password to control access privileges from the console and web
browser interface. Other parameters in the Switch Setup screen can be left at
their default settings or you can configure them with values you enter.
3
Getting Started With Switch
Configuration
Many other features can be configured through the switch’s console interface,
to optimize the switch’s performance, to enhance your control of the network
traffic, and to improve network security. Once an IP address has been configured on the switch, these features can be accessed more conveniently through
a remote Telnet session, through the switch’s web browser interface, and from
an SNMP network management station running a network management
program, such as ProCurve Manager. For a listing of switch features available
with and without an IP address, refer to “How IP Addressing Affects Switch
Operation” in the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the
ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com. See page 5-1 for details.
For more information on IP addressing, refer to “IP Configuration” in the
Management and Configuration Guide.
3-1
Getting Started With Switch Configuration
Using the Console Setup Screen
NoteBy default, the switch is configured to acquire an IP address configuration
from a DHCP or Bootp server. To use DHCP/Bootp instead of the manual
method described in this chapter, see “DHCP/Bootp Operation” in the
Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site,
www.procurve.com. (See page 5-1 for details.)
Using the Console Setup Screen
The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for management and password protection in your network is to use a direct console
connection to the switch, start a console session, and access the Switch Setup
screen.
1.Using the method described in the preceding section, connect a terminal
device to the switch and display the switch console command (CLI)
prompt (the default display).
The CLI prompt appears displaying the switch model number:
ProCurve Switch 3500yl-48G#
2.At the prompt, enter the setup command to display the Switch Setup
screen. The following illustration shows the Setup screen with the default
settings.

The above procedure configures your switch with a Manager password, IP
address, and subnet mask. As a result, with the proper network connections,
you can now manage the switch from a PC equipped with Telnet, a web
browser interface, or from an SNMP-based network management station
using a tool such as ProCurve Manager.
Some basic information on managing your switch is included in the next
section. For more information on the console, web browser, and SNMP

With your yl switch, 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.Make sure 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:

Replacing Components
This chapter shows you how to remove and install the following components:
■Fan tray (see page 4-1)
■Battery (see page 4-3)
Hot SwappingThese components can not be hot swapped. The switch must be powered off
to replace both of these components.
CautionThe ProCurve 3500yl and 6200yl Switches and its components are sensitive to
static discharge. Use an antistatic wrist strap and observe all static
precautions when replacing components.
Replacing the fan tray
The fan tray is not hot swappable. Replacing the fan try must be done during
scheduled downtime. When a fan fails the Fan Status LED on the switch will
blink simultaneously with the switch Fault LED. In this case, the entire fan
tray needs to be replaced. Individual fans cannot be replaced.
WARNINGTo avoid the possibility of electric shock, all power cords must be
disconnected from the switch before starting this procedure.
To replace a fan tray:

Troubleshooting
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
Most problems are caused by the following situations. Check for these items
first when starting your troubleshooting:
Troubleshooting
■Connecting to devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration.
The RJ-45 ports are 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 mode of half
duplex.
Because the switch behaves 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.
5-2
Make sure that all devices connected to the switch are configured to auto
negotiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex (all hubs are
configured this way, for example).
■Faulty or loose cables. Look for loose or obviously faulty connections.
If they appear to be OK, make sure the connections are snug. If that does
not correct the problem, try a different cable.
■Non-standard cables. Non-standard and miswired cables may cause
network collisions and other network problems, and can seriously impair
network performance. Use a new correctly-wired cable or compare your
cable to the cable in appendix B, “Cables and Connectors” for pinouts and
correct cable wiring. A category 5 cable tester is a recommended tool for
every 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T network installation.
■Improper Network Topologies. It is important to make sure you have
a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive
cable length and excessive repeater delays between end nodes. If you have
network problems after recent changes to the network, change back to
the previous topology. If you no longer experience the problems, the new
topology is probably at fault. Sample topologies are shown at the end of
chapter 2 in this book, and some topology configuration guidelines can
be found online at the ProCurve web site, www.procurve.com.
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
Troubleshooting
In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains
no data path loops. Between any two end nodes, there should be only
one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast
storms that will severely impact your network performance.
For your switch, if you wish to build redundant paths between important
nodes in your network to provide some fault tolerance, you should enable
Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch. This ensures only one
of the redundant paths is active at any time, thus avoiding data path loops.
Spanning Tree can be enabled through the switch console, the web
browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.
The Series 3500yl Switch devices also support Trunking, which allows
multiple network cables to be used for a single network connection
without causing a data path loop. For more information on Spanning Tree
and Trunking, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is
on the ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com. See page 5-1 for details.
■Check the port configuration. A port on your switch may not be
operating as you expect because it has been put into a “blocking” state by
Spanning Tree, 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.
Troubleshooting
Use the switch console to determine the port’s configuration and verify
that there is not an improper or undesired configuration of any of the
switch features that may be affecting the port. For more information, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve
Web site at www.procurve.com. See page 5-1 for details.

working
properly.
Troubleshooting
Try the following procedures:
• For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected
device, are connected properly.
• Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly.
• Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection:
– For twisted-pair connections to the fixed 10/100 or 10/100/1000 ports, if the port is
configured to “Auto” (auto negotiate), either straight-through or crossover cables
can be used because of the switch’s “HP Auto-MDIX” feature and the Auto MDI/
MDI-X feature of the 10/100/1000-T port.
Note: If the switch port configuration is changed to one of the fixed configuration
options (for example, 100 Mbps/Full Duplex), then the port operates as MDI-X only
and you must use the correct type of cable for the connection. In general, for
connecting an end node (MDI port) to the switch, use straight-through cable; for
connecting to MDI-X ports on hubs, other switches, and routers, use crossover
cable.
– 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.
• For the dual-personality 10/100/1000-T ports, be sure a mini-GBIC is not installed in the
associated slot.
• For 1000Base-T connections, verify that the network cabling complies with the IEEE
802.3ab standard. the cable should be installed according to the ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A-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 process 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
also MUST be configured as “Auto”. Depending on the port type, twisted-pair or fiberoptic, 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.

The ProCurve Series 3500yl and 6200yl Switches have built-in management
capabilities that proactively help you manage your network including:
Troubleshooting
■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 perfor-
mance of your network
The following interfaces provide tests, indicators, and an event log that can
be used to monitor the switch and its network connections and to help you
take advantage of these proactive networking features:
■ProCurve Manager - an SNMP-based network management tool that is
included with your switch.
■A graphical web browser interface that you can use to manage your switch
from a PC running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft
Internet Explorer, and Netscape Communicator.
■A full-featured easy-to-use console interface that you can access by
connecting a standard terminal or PC running a terminal emulator to the
switch’s console port. The cable to make that connection is provided with
your switch. The console interface is also accessible through a Telnet
connection.

Hardware Diagnostic Tests
Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests
Testing the Switch by Resetting It
If you believe the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch
to test its circuitry and operating code. To reset a switch, either:
■unplug and plug in the power cord (power cycling)
■press the Reset button on the front of the switch
Power cycling the switch and pressing the Reset button both cause the switch
to perform its power-on self test, which almost always will resolve any
temporary operational problems. These reset processes also cause any
network traffic counters to be reset to zero, and cause the System Up Time
timer to reset to zero.
Checking the Switch LEDs
The self test passes if the Fault and Self Test LEDs on the front of the switch
go off after approximately 50 seconds. If these LEDs stay on longer than 60
seconds or begin blinking, there may be a problem with the switch.
See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 5-4 for information on interpreting
the LED patterns and LED behaviors in chapter one.
Troubleshooting
Checking Console Messages
Useful diagnostic messages may be displayed on the console screen when the
switch is reset. As described in chapter 2 under step 7, “Connect a Console to
the Switch”, connect a PC running a VT-100 terminal emulator program or a
standard VT-100 terminal to the switch’s Console Port and configure it to run
at 9600 baud, and with the other terminal communication settings shown on
page 2-22. Then, when you reset the switch, note the messages that are
displayed. Additionally, you can check the switch event log, which can be
accessed from the console using the show log command, or from the console
Main Menu.
5-9
Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests
Testing Twisted-Pair Cabling
Network cables that fail to provide a link or provide an unreliable link between
the switch and the connected network device may not be compatible with the
IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T standards. The twistedpair cables attached to the Switch must be compatible with the appropriate
standards. To verify your cable is compatible with these standards, use a
Troubleshooting
qualified cable test device.
Testing Switch-to-Device Network Communications
You can perform the following communication tests to verify the network is
operating correctly between the switch and any connected device that can
respond correctly to the communication test.
■Link Test -- a physical layer test that sends IEEE 802.2 test packets to any
device identified by its MAC address.
■Ping Test -- a network layer test used on IP networks that sends test
packets to any device identified by its IP address.
These tests can be performed through the switch console interface from a
terminal connected to the switch or through a Telnet connection, or from the
switch’s web browser interface. For more information, see the Management
and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site at
www.procurve.com. See page 5-1 for details.
5-10
These tests can also be performed from an SNMP network management
station running a program that can manage the switch, for example, ProCurve
Manager.
Testing End-to-End Network Communications
Both the switch and the cabling can be tested by running an end-to-end
communications test -- a test that sends known data from one network device
to another through the switch. For example, if you have two PCs on the
network that have LAN adapters between which you can run a link-level test
or Ping test through the switch, you can use this test to verify that the entire
communication path between the two PCs is functioning correctly. See your
LAN adapter documentation for more information on running a link test or
Ping test.
Restoring the Factory Default Configuration
Troubleshooting
Restoring the Factory Default
Configuration
As part of your troubleshooting process on the switch, it may become necessary to return the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This
process momentarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords,
clears the console event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a
complete self test, and reboots the switch into its factory default configuration
including deleting the IP address, if one is configured.
NoteThis process removes all switch configuration changes you have made from
the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of
VLANs, Spanning Tree, trunks, and stacking. Returning the configuration of
these features to their factory default settings (usually disabling them) may
result in network connectivity issues.
If the switch has a valid configuration, and you are restoring the factory default
settings for a reason other than configuration problems, you should save the
switch configuration prior to performing the factory default reset. Then, after
the reset and resolution of the original problem, you can restore the saved
configuration to the switch. For both the save and restore processes, you can
use the console copy command. For more information on this command, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web
site at www.procurve.com. See page 5-1 for details.
Troubleshooting
You can restore the factory default configuration either on the switch itself,
or through the switch console.
To execute the factory default reset on the switch, perform these steps:
1.Using pointed objects, simultaneously press both the Reset and Clear
buttons on the front of the switch.
2.Continue to press the Clear button while releasing the Reset button.
3.When the Self Test LED begins to blink, release the Clear button. It takes
approximately 25 seconds before the Self Test LED will begin to blink.
The switch will then complete its self test and begin operating with its
configuration restored to the factory default settings.
To restore the factory default configuration using the console, execute the
erase startup-config command from the console command prompt.

Switch Ports and Network Cables
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.
Cabling plants 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) 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.

Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for
Gigabit-LX
The following information applies to installations in which multimode fiberoptic cables are connected to a Gigabit-LX port.
NoteMode Conditioning Patch Cord cables only apply to one Gigabit operation.
Mode Conditioning Patch Cord cables are not supported for 10 Gigabit
operation.
Unlike Gigabit-SX, which connects to only multimode fiber-optic cabling,
Gigabit-LX can use either single-mode or multimode cable. Multimode cable
has a design characteristic called “Differential Mode Delay”, which requires
that the transmission signals be “conditioned” to compensate for the cable
design and thus prevent resulting transmission errors. Since Gigabit-SX is
designed to operate only with multimode cable, Gigabit-SX mini-GBICs can
provide that transmission conditioning internally.
Gigabit-LX mini-GBICs, since they are designed to operate with both singlemode and multimode cable, do not provide the transmission conditioning
internally. Thus, under certain circumstances, depending on the cable used
and the lengths of the cable runs, an external Mode Conditioning Patch Cord may need to be installed between the Gigabit-LX transmitting device
and the multimode network cable to provide the transmission conditioning.
Switch Ports and Network
If you experience a high number of transmission errors on the Gigabit-LX
ports, usually CRC or FCS errors, you may need to install one of these patch
cords between the Gigabit-LX port in your switch and your multimode fiberoptic network cabling, and between the Gigabit-LX transmission device and
the network cabling at the other end of the multimode fiber-optic cable run.
A patch cord must be installed at both ends.
The patch cord consists of a short length of single-mode fiber cable coupled
to graded-index multimode fiber cable on the transmit side, and only
multimode cable on the receive side. The section of single-mode fiber is
connected in such a way that it minimizes the effects of the differential mode
delay in the multimode cable.
NoteIf you are using good quality graded-index multimode fiber cable that adheres
to the standards listed on page 2-5, there should not be a need to use mode
conditioning patch cords. This is especially true if the fiber runs in your
network are relatively short. If you are using single-mode fiber-optic cabling,
there is no need to use mode conditioning patch cords. Connect the singlemode network cable directly to the Gigabit-LX mini-GBIC.

Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs
Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs
Auto-MDIX Feature: The 10/100/1000-T ports support the IEEE 802.3ab
standard, which includes the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature. In the default
configuration, “Auto”, the ports on the Switch 3500 all automatically detect
the type of port on the connected device and operate as either an MDI or MDIX 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.
If you connect a Switch 3500 twisted-pair port to another switch or hub, which
typically have MDI-X ports, the Switch 3500 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 Switch 3500 port operates as an MDI-X port. In
all cases, you can use standard straight-through cables or crossover 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.
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 “Twisted-Pair Cable Pin
Assignments” 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 Require-
ments” on page B-1 for more information on 1000Base-T cabling.
■For 10 Mbps connections to the ports, you can use Category 3, 4, or 5
unshielded twisted-pair cable, as supported by the IEEE 802.3 Type

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

Straight-Through Twisted-Pair Cable for
10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Network Connections
Because of the HP Auto-MDIX operation of the 10/100 ports on the switch, 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.
