6Installing the Hardware

Installing the Hardware

To install the S50 system, Force10 Networks recommends that you complete the installation procedures in

the order presented below, before attaching a power source:

• Insert the 10-Gigabit Module (optional)

• Insert the DC Power Module (optional)

• Attach the S50 to the Rack

• Connect Stacking Ports (optional)

Inserting the 10-Gigabit Module (optional)

The S50 has a slot at the right rear of the chassis, for which there are two types of 10-Gigabit module

available—fiber (optical) and copper (10GBase-CX4). Both have two ports (the system numbers them 49

and 50). The fiber module requires additional XFP inserts (see Installing XFP Modules (optional) on

page 9). The ports in the copper module use the same kind of stacking cable that you use for the stacking

ports. To install a 10-Gigabit module, follow the steps below:

Inserting the DC Power Module (optional)

The S50 system includes an optional DC power module that you can install in the back of the S50 chassis.

Connect it to your AC power source through an external S50 power converter module. To install these

optional components, see Chapter 4 in Installing the S50 System. Force10 also supplies a power shelf for

housing up to eight power converter modules, for use with an S50 stack.

Warning: Before starting the installation, be sure thatthe installation conditions conform to those

specified in Installing the S50 System.

Step Task

1. Remove the 10-Gigabit module faceplate located at the far right rear of the S50.

2. Remove the 10-Gigabit module from its packaging and slide the module into the 10-Gigabit slot.

3. Secure the captive screws on either side of the module.

S50 Quick Reference 7

Attaching the S50 to the Rack

The S50 is shipped with universal front-mounting brackets (rack ears) attached. The screws for attaching

those ears to a standard 19-inch rack are in the bag that also contains the S-Series CD-ROM.

Ensure that there is adequate clearance surrounding the rack to permit access and airflow. If you are

installing two S50 systems side-by-side, position the two S50 chassis at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart to

permit proper airflow.

Position the S50 chassis in the rack. Secure the chassis with two screws through each bracket and onto the

rack post.

Figure 1 Front-mounting the S50

Note: The front-mounting installation above is one of several installation options contained in the

book Installing the S50 System. Other options include rear mounting, four-post mounting, and

table-mounting.

8Installing the Hardware

Connecting Stacking Ports (optional)

You can connect S50 systems together to configure them to act as a unified system.

Stack limitations — The number of S50s in a stack is limited by the number of S50s with 10Gb modules:

— If zero or one S50 has a 10Gb module, the stack is limited to seven S50s.

— If three S50s have a 10Gb module, the stack is limited to six S50s.

— If four or more S50s have 10Gb modules, only five S50s are allowed in the stack.

Use the optional stacking cables to connect the systems through Stack Ports A and B, as depicted below.

Note: The diagram shows a connection between the top and bottom S50s, from Stack Port A on

unit 1 to Stack Port B on unit 3. That connection completes a topology called a ring. While that ring

connection is not necessary, it provides redundancy in case of a failure of stacking cable or port.

S50 Quick Reference 9

Installing SFP Modules (optional)

Installing XFP Modules (optional)

To install SFPs (Small

Form-factor Pluggable

modules) into the four open

ports at the right front of the

S50:

1. Position the SFP so that

the bail is closed and on

top of the SFP.

2. Insert the SFP into the

port until it gently snaps

into place.

Note: The four SFP ports

shown in the graphic, when

populated, automatically

preempt the four copper ports

labeled 45 through 48.

In other words, while you use

a particular optical port, you

cannot use the equivalent

copper port.

Warning: Do not look directly into any optical port. Failure to follow this warning could result in

physical harm.

The two 10-Gigabit ports (identified by the system as

ports 49 and 50) on the back of the S50 require the

optional 10-Gigabit module. See Inserting the

10-Gigabit Module (optional) on page 6.

To install XFPs into the two open ports that are in the

fiber (optical) version of the 10-Gigabit module:

1. Position the XFP so that the bail is closed and on

top of the XFP.

2. Insert the XFP into the port until it gently snaps

into place.

10 Basic Software Configuration

Connecting a Cable to the Console Port

See the Getting Started chapter of the SFTOS Configuration Guide for other console port details, such as

setting the console timeout and the baud rate.

Basic Software Configuration

This S50 Quick Reference contains a small subset of the information that is provided in the Getting Started

chapter of the SFTOS Configuration Guide. That guide is available PDF format on the S-Series CD-ROM

and on the Documents tab of the iSupport website.

This section discusses the following configuration topics for the S50:

•Creating a User and Password on page 11

•Setting the Enable Password on page 11

•Enabling Ports on page 11

•Setting the Management IP Address on page 12

•Enabling Telnet to the Switch on page 12

•Managing a Stack of S50 Switches on page 13

•Installing New Software on page 13

•Enabling and Using the SFTOS Web User Interface on page 14

Caution: Install a straight-through RJ-45 copper cable (a standard Ethernet cable)into the console

port. This is different from many other implementations that require a crossover (rollover) cable. If

connecting to a terminal server and using an Ethernet crossover cable, daisychain another crossover

cable to effectively get a straight-through cable connection. Many console terminal servers use

octopus cables that are crossover cables. As above, connect an additional crossover cable.

Connect the RJ-45/DB-9

adapter that is shipped

with the S50 system to

the RJ-45 cable.

Note: The console port

pinout:

Pin 1 = NC

Pin 2 = NC

Pin 3 = RXD

Pin 4 = GND

Pin 5 = GND

Pin 6 = TXD

Pin 7 = NC

Pin 8 = NC

Set your console terminal settings

to:

• 9600 baud rate

•noparity

• 8 data bits

• 1 stop bit

• no flow control
