Off The normal state; indicates that there are no fault conditions on the switch.
On On briefly after the switch is powered on or reset, at the beginning of switch self test.
If on for a prolonged time, the switch has a hardware failure, or has failed its self test. See chapter 3, “Troubleshooting” for more information.
On Indicates the port is enabled and receiving a link indication from the connected
device.
Off One of these conditions exists:
• no active network cable is connected to the port
• the port is not receiving a link signal
Displays network activity information, or whether the port is configured for full-duplex operation, or the speed of the connection depending on the mode selected. See “Mode LED View Button and Indicator LEDs” on the next page for more information.

Mode LED View Button and Indicator LEDs
To optimize the amount of information that can be displayed for each of the switch ports, the Series 2700 Switches use a Mode LED for each port. The operation of this LED is controlled by the Mode LED View button, and the current setting is indicated by the Mode indicator LEDs near the button. Press the button to change from one mode to the next.

The Series 2700 Switches 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--240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.

Series 2700 Switches
Introducing the HP Procurve
Features
The features of the Series 2700 Switches include:
■ 8 or 24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports.
■ 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 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.
Complying with the IEEE 802.3ab standard, 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 hardware addresses in each switch’s address
forwarding table (the Switch 2708 has an 8000-entry table, the Switch 2724 has a 32,000-entry table).
■ automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the twisted-pair ports
when connected to other auto-negotiating devices.
■ auto-negotiation of flow control for ports operating at full duplex.

Switch Operation Overview
Address Table Operation
Address Learning. As devices are connected to the switch ports, either directly or through hubs or other switches that are connected to the switch, the MAC addresses of those devices are learned automatically and stored in the Series 2700 Switch’s address table. The switch also identifies the number of the port on which each address is learned so it knows the relative network location of each device.
Forwarding, Filtering, Flooding. When the switch receives a packet, it determines the destination address, and looks for the address in the address table. Based on the port location of that address, the switch then determines whether to forward, filter-out, or flood the packet.
■ forward - if the destination address is on a different port than the one on
■ filter out - if the destination address is on the same port as the one on
■ flood - whenever a new destination address is found in a packet received
Introducing the HP Procurve Series 2700 Switches
Switch Operation Overview

which the packet was received, the packet is forwarded to the destination port and on to the destination device.
which the packet was received, the packet is filtered out. The switch thereby isolates local traffic so the rest of the network connected to the switch does not use bandwidth dealing with unnecessary traffic.
on a port, the destination address will not yet be in the switch’s address table and the Series 2700 Switch cannot know whether to forward or filter out the packet. In this case, it sends the packet to all the other switch ports. This is referred to as “flooding”. When the destination device receives the packet, it replies, and the switch learns the new address from the reply packet. Then, all future packets destined for that address are forwarded or filtered out appropriately.
Network Moves and Changes. When devices are moved in the network, and become connected to a different switch port, the Series 2700 Switch automatically recognizes the change and updates the address table with the new port location of the device. Communication with the device is automati­cally maintained, without any address table manipulation being required.

Installing the Series 2700 Switches
The HP Series 2700 Switches are easy to install. They come with an accessory kit that includes the brackets for mounting the switch in a standard 19-inch telco rack or an equipment cabinet, or on a wall, and with rubber feet that can be attached so the switch can be securely located on a horizontal surface. The brackets are designed to allow mounting the switch in a variety of orientations.
This chapter shows you how to install your Series 2700 Switches.

Summary
Follow these easy steps to install your switch. The rest of this chapter provides details on these steps.
1. Prepare the installation site. Make sure that the physical environment
2. Verify that the switch passes its self test. This is a simple process of
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 2-3 for some
installation precautions.
plugging the switch into a power source and observing that the LEDs on the switch’s front panel show correct operation. See page 2-6.

Installing the Series 2700
3. Mount the switch. The Series 2700 Switches can be mounted in a 19-inch telco rack or equipment cabinet, on a wall, or on a horizontal surface.
4. Connect power to the switch. Once the switch is mounted, plug it in to the nearby AC power source.
5. Connect the network devices. Using the appropriate network cables, connect servers, hubs, other switches, routers, and other network devices to the switch ports.
At this point, the switch is fully installed and your network should be up and running. See the rest of this chapter if you need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.
