5. Einrichtung
5.1. Platzierung und Montage
- Rackmontage: Befestigen Sie die mitgelieferten Rack-Montagehalterungen mithilfe der beiliegenden Schrauben an den Seiten des Switches. Montieren Sie den Switch in ein Standard-19-Zoll-Geräterack.
- Desktop-Platzierung: If not rack-mounting, place the switch on a flat, stable surface. Ensure adequate space around the switch for proper ventilation.
- Umfeld: Position the switch in a clean, dry, and temperature-controlled environment, away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
5.2. Stromanschluss
- Ensure the power switch (if present) is in the OFF position.
- Connect one end of the AC power cord to the power connector on the rear panel of the switch.
- Schließen Sie das andere Ende des Netzkabels an eine geerdete Steckdose an.
5.3. Netzwerkverbindungen
- Connecting End Devices: Connect Ethernet cables from your computers, IP phones, wireless access points, or other network devices to the RJ-45 ports on the front panel.
- Uplink-Verbindungen: Insert appropriate SFP transceivers into the SFP uplink ports. Connect fiber optic or copper cables from the SFP transceivers to your core network devices (e.g., routers, distribution switches).
5.4. Initial Configuration (Console Access)
For initial setup and advanced configuration, you may need to access the switch's command-line interface (CLI) via the console port.
- Connect a console cable (typically RJ-45 to DB-9 serial) from the switch's console port to the serial port of a computer.
- Öffnen Sie ein Terminalemulationsprogramm (z. B. PuTTY, Tera Term) auf Ihrem Computer.
- Configure the serial port settings: 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control.
- Power on the switch. The boot sequence and CLI prompt will appear in the terminal window.
6. Bedienungsanleitung
6.1. Power On and System Status
After connecting the power, the switch will automatically power on. Observe the system LED indicators:
- System-LED: Indicates the overall health of the switch. A solid green light typically means the system is operating normally.
- RPS LED: Indicates the status of the Redundant Power System (if connected).
6.2. Port LED Indicators
Each Ethernet port has an associated LED that indicates its status:
- Link-/Aktivitäts-LED:
- Durchgängig grün: Verbindung hergestellt.
- Grün blinkend: Aktivität im Hafen.
- Aus: Kein Link oder Port deaktiviert.
- PoE Status LED (if applicable):
- Durchgängig grün: PoE-Strom wird geliefert.
- Gelb blinkend: PoE fault or power issue.
- Aus: No PoE power being delivered.
6.3. Power over Ethernet Plus (PoE+)
The switch's PoE+ ports automatically detect and provide power to connected PoE-compatible devices (e.g., IP phones, wireless access points, IP cameras) up to 30W per port, within the total PoE budget of 740W.
6.4. Management Interfaces
Der Schalter kann wie folgt gesteuert werden:
- Befehlszeilenschnittstelle (CLI): Accessed via the console port or Telnet/SSH over the network.
- Web-based Management Interface: Zugriff über eine web browser by entering the switch's IP address.
- USB-Anschlüsse: For firmware upgrades, configuration backup/restore, and console access.
