12 ABOUT THIS GUIDE

SETTING UP YOUR SMC9712G

To install your SMC9712G safely and efficiently so that you can connect it to your network, follow these tasks:

1 Read Chapter 2 in this guide for a quick review of basic facts about the Switch.

2 Ensure that your installation environment meets the site requirements described in

Chapter 3.

3 Unpack and inspect the SMC9712G components for visible damage, if you have

not already done so.

For unpacking procedures and information on how to proceed if damage exists, see the SMC9712G Key Information Guide.

See Chapter 5 for the installation procedure.

4 Install the chassis.

5 (Optional) Install a second power supply (for redundancy) into the chassis before

you install it on a table, shelf, or in a rack.

See Chapter 4 for the installation procedure.

SMC recommends that you do not connect the SMC9712G to a power source until all components are installed. This way, you can focus your attention on all module LEDs simultaneously.

6 (If required) Install Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules.

If you need to install additional modules, see Chapter 7 for the information about their physical attributes and module installation procedure.

All chassis ship from the manufacturing center with a Network Management Module (NMM) preinstalled, thus you do not have to install one. However, you can install a second (redundant) NMM to provide standby management support.

At your option, you may connect network cabling to your SMC9712G interface modules prior to powering on the Switch. However, once the Switch is powered on, be aware that features such as the Spanning Tree Protocol’s root bridge election process may affect your network operations. If you are unfamiliar with the SMC9712G, SMC recommends that you power up the Switch without cabling attached so that you can first spend a few minutes studying the management interface.

7 Power on the system by connecting the power cables to the sockets on the

SMC9712G power supplies and then to the dedicated power outlets.

There is no ON/OFF button on the SMC9712G. The system is powered on as long as the mains power source is connected to the Switch. If you need to cycle power to the SMC9712G, you can either unplug and replug the power cord, or you can do it through a command on the SMC9712G management interface.

14 CHAPTER 1: SETTING UP YOUR SMC9712G

If you installed a second, redundant power supply, SMC recommends that you connect it to a dedicated power source.

After power is supplied to the SMC9712G, power supplies begin operating, fans start rotating, all modules begin power-on verification processes and self-diagnostic processes, and the NMM begins its software boot cycle. The module LEDs will flash in different colors and sequences during this time.

8 Wait for the chassis to finish its start-up sequence of diagnostic tests.

This could take up to five minutes (approximately).

For information about module LEDs, see Table 5, Table 6, Table 11, and Table 13 in Chapter 7.

The SMC9712G is not ready for operation until its initialization processes finish. This process may last up to 5 minutes.

If no problems exist at the completion of the module initialization process, you should see the following:

■ All four fans are rotating continuously.

■ The AC and DC LEDs on each installed power supply are lighted.

■ The Power LED on the NMM module is Green.

■ The Diagnostic LED on all modules is Green.

■ The Port Link and Mode LEDs on all interface modules remain off until you

attach cabling and functioning network links are created.

If a Module Diagnostic LED is off after the diagnostics run, that module has failed.

If you observe error conditions with the following hardware components, see the referenced chapter:

■ power supplies, see “Troubleshooting a Power Supply” in Chapter 5.

■ fans, see “Troubleshooting a Fan Tray” in Chapter 6.

■ modules, see“Troubleshooting Modules” in Chapter 7.

9 To view or modify the default software configuration, use a standard null modem

cable to connect a terminal or PC with terminal emulation software (such as

HyperTerm that is included with Windows

) to the console port on the NMM.

At this point, the menu-driven command line interface (CLI) that is built into the software becomes visible to you.

See the SMC9712G Software Configuration Guide to view or modify the default settings in the software as well as to learn about other management interface options.

10 When you are ready to join the SMC9712G to the rest of your network, attach

GBIC transceivers (if applicable) and network cabling to the ports on the interface modules.

OVERVIEW OF THE SMC9712G

This chapter provides an introduction to the design of the SMC9712G. The topics in this chapter include:

■ Product Overview

■ Switch Backplane Architecture

Product Overview The SMC9712G is a feature-rich, 14-slot, modular routing switch that can be

configured with up to 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports or up to 96 Fast Ethernet ports with currently available modules. The SMC9712G currently supports redundant power supplies, redundant Network Management Modules, and a variety of Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules. Combining the speed and low cost of a Layer 2 switch with Layer 3 routing capabilities, the SMC9712G currently routes the IP protocol and offers many other advanced features to provide the high performance that you need to aggregate wiring closets in your network.

Physical Description A SMC9712G chassis can contain:

■ Two fa n tray s.

Each fan tray contains two fans (four fans total). Both fan trays are required for normal operation.

■ Two 300 Watt AC power supplies

Only one power supply is required for normal operation. If installed, a second power supply provides load-sharing and redundancy.

■ Two Network Management Modules (NMMs)

Only one NMM is required for normal operation. If the NMM is removed from a powered up chassis that is functioning in a network, chassis operations will cease. However, if a backup NMM is installed in the chassis, and the primary NMM is removed or fails, the backup NMM will take over operations.

The NMM has two elements: a central Network, which manages the layer 3 routing functions of the system such as routing table updates and layer 3 configuration changes, and the management of the system, which includes SNMP, command line interface (CLI), and Web client activities.

■ Up to Twelve Fast Ethernet or Gigabit Ethernet Interface Modules

You install the number and type of interface modules that are appropriate to your cabling infrastructure and bandwidth requirements. When the source and destination ports are located on the same interface module, the interface module performs local switching. If the destination port resides on a different interface module, the interface module forwards the packet to the NMM.

16 CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW OF THE SMC9712G

Minimum Requirements

for Normal Operation

Module Slots in the

Chassis

The following minimum components are required for normal operation of the SMC9712G:

■ Two fan trays (four fans total)

■ One 300 Watt AC power supply

■ One Network Management Module (NMM) operating with system software

■ The number and type of interface modules that are appropriate for your

network connectivity needs

■ Blank faceplates that cover all empty module slots and the second power

supply bay (if a second power supply is not installed).

You insert modules vertically into the chassis slots so that the slot number shows through a hole in the module faceplate. As shown in Figure 1, the slots for interface modules are numbered from left to right, starting with number 1 and continuing to 12. The two center slots are numbered M1 and M2 because they exist solely to contain Network Management Modules (NMMs). An NMM can be placed in either of these slots.

Building a System You can build a complete system from component items that are ordered

separately.

Servicing a System For service spares purposes, all component items such as fan trays, power supplies,

and modules can be purchased separately at any time. Check with your network supplier to see if they stock spare components, provide service, or resell SMC service agreements.

18 CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW OF THE SMC9712G

Switch Backplane Architecture

Gigabit Data Traces

UART Control Traces

A star-wired scheme of traces inside the chassis, which is called the backplane, is used to connect each interface module slot to the Network Management Module (NMM) slots. A module, fan tray, or power supply connects to the backplane when it is inserted into a slot and its connectors engage the connectors that are inside the chassis.

As shown in Figure 3, the SMC9712G backplane design offers:

■ 12 Gbps of non-blocking bandwidth capacity

■ Passive design, meaning that there are no active components that can fail

■ Support for dual, redundant Network Management Modules (NMMs)

■ Support for system communication between the NMM and interface modules

for control signals, detection, and other management activities.

Interface Slot 7

Interface Slot 8

Interface Slot 9

Interface Slot 10

Interface Slot 12

The backplane connector on each module provides easy access to all the services from the SMC9712G backplane:

■ a data channel for network traffic between the NMM and interface modules

■ a control channel that passes signals for module detection

■ module diagnostics

■ LED operation between the NMM and interface modules

■ a Serial Communication Interface (SCI) communications channel that operates

between two NMMs (if installed) to keep their configurations synchronized

Traffic between ports on the same interface module does not enter the backplane; that is, the interface modules provide layer 2 and layer 3 switching when the packet’s destination is a locally attached node. Interface modules send packets that have non-local destination addresses across the backplane to the NMM which then switches the packets to the appropriate interface module.

20 CHAPTER 3: SITE REQUIREMENTS AND PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

Environmental Specifications

Ventilation Requirements

The site for the SMC9712G should meet the environmental requirements shown in Tab le 2:

Tab le 2 Environmental Specifications

Operating temperature

Operating humidity 10% to 90%, noncondensing

Storage temperature -40 °C to 66 °C

Storage humidity 10% to 90%, noncondensing

Switch operating temperature is the temperature of the environment in which the switch is installed.

Ambient air is room air (more specifically, the air drawn into the switch by installed fans to cool

installed switch components).

0 °C to 50 °C ambient (32 °F to 122 °F)

(-40 °F to 151 °F)

The chassis operates with two fan trays. Each fan tray contains two fans. These fans pull ambient air into the chassis from vents in the module faceplates and expel hot air through vents in the back of the fan tray.

Although the fan trays provide the majority of the cooling, the power supplies also contain fans. Each power supply pulls in ambient air through side vents in the adjacent chassis wall and expels hot air through its vents in the back.

If a power supply overheats, it shuts itself off.

Location Requirements

To ensure that adequate ventilation exists for the SMC9712G:

■ Maintain at least 7 cm (2.76 in.) between the sides of the chassis and the

nearest wall or other vertical surface.

■ Maintain at least 8 cm (3 in.) between the front of the chassis and another

vertical surface (such as a rack door).

■ Maintain at least 91.4 cm (36 in.) at the back of the chassis.

CAUTION: Operate a SMC9712G chassis with all four fans running. If one fan in a fan tray fails, replace the fan tray as soon as possible.

Install the SMC9712G in an area that meets the following location requirements:

■ The surface on which you want to place the SMC9712G chassis is level.

■ The power source is within approximately 2 meters (6.6 feet) of the location

where you plan to install the SMC9712G.

■ Each of the power supplies is connected to its own dedicated circuit. Do not

connect the power supplies to a single power strip.

■ There is a sufficient amount of space on each side of the SMC9712G chassis to

accommodate any cables along the side of the chassis.

■ There is at least 91.4 cm (36 in.) at the back of the chassis to service power

supplies and fans.

■ If the chassis is the first device in your rack, then mount it about 10.2 cm (4 in.)

above the floor.

Location Requirements 21

■ The following list shows the amount of rack space that is needed to install a

SMC9712G chassis in a Telco rack or a Metric rack:

■ Height — 31.06 cm / 12.15 in.

The height of the chassis, allowing for some extension beyond the location

of the upper and lower unit dividing lines.

■ Telco Rack Unit — 7.2 RU

The unit of measure is 1 Rack Unit (1.75 in. or 4.45 cm).

■ Metric Rack Unit — 14.4 SU

The unit of measure is 1 System Unit (25 millimeters).

■ Front clearance — 8 cm / 3 in.

This is the recommended minimum space required between the front of the

chassis and another vertical surface (such as a rack door). Your cabling may

require that you leave the rack door open.

Precautionary

Guidelines

■ Safety regulations stipulate that the table, shelf, or rack on which the

SMC9712G rests can support at least 61.8 kg (136.5 lb), which is three times the weight of a fully loaded SMC9712G chassis.

■ To reduce the possibility of personal injury or serious damage to the chassis, use

at least two people to install the chassis. This is especially important for rack installations, because you must hold the chassis in place while you secure it to the rack.

■ If you are installing the SMC9712G in a rack, first ensure that the rack is

installed properly according to the manufacturer’s instructions, which may include steps such as:

■ Ground the rack in accordance with the rack manufacturer’s instructions.

■ Bolt the rack to the floor.

■ Make certain that the rack is properly aligned and squared. Use a framing

tool to ensure that the rack is squared.

■ Use the following guidelines to tighten screws to Torque Specification:

■ Module faceplate screws — 1.3 in/lb (inch-pounds)

■ Power supplies and fan trays to the chassis — 1.3 in/lb

■ #10 screws for holding the chassis onto a rack — 22-25 in/lb

To ensure that you tighten screws to Torque Specification, use a torque screwdriver.

22 CHAPTER 3: SITE REQUIREMENTS AND PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS

Power Requirements This section outlines the power requirements for the SMC9712G 300-watt AC

The power supplies are autosensing; that is, a power supply can automatically sense the type of input voltage to which it is being connected at the electrical outlet.

If a power supply overheats, it shuts itself off.

Power Cords One power cord per power supply is required. If you have two power supplies

installed in the chassis, SMC recommends that you connect them to separate, dedicated power outlets. The power cord that you require depends on your country location. The correct power cord should be in your chassis shipping box. If you do not have the correct power cord, contact your supplier.

Safety Information This section lists warning notices to read before you install the SMC9712G and its

components.

WARNING: The SMC9712G chassis and its components must be installed,

maintained, or replaced only by trained service personnel. This guide assumes that the network administrator has a working knowledge of local area network (LAN) operations. Furthermore, this guide assumes that the network administrator has obtained appropriate technical training and experience to perform tasks in service access areas of network equipment, to be aware of electrical hazards that exist in performing these tasks, and to take steps that minimize the danger to themselves or other persons. If you have questions on installation tasks, contact your network supplier or SMC technical support. For contact information, see Appendix A.

WARNING: To maintain proper cooling in the chassis and maintain safety compliance, make certain that blank faceplates cover any empty module slots or power supply slots.

WARNING: Hazardous energy levels exist inside of the Switch. Do not place hands or objects into the switch or touch components on an inserted module.

WARNING: Safety regulations state that the selected table, shelf, or rack must be able to support at least three times the weight of a fully loaded Switch. A fully loaded SMC9712G chassis weighs approximately 20.6 kg (45.5 lb). Therefore, the selected table or shelf must support at least 61.8 kg (136.5 lb).
