However, in the event that the normal operating temperature of the switch is exceeded, the following will occur: • Upon crossing the configured Upper Threshold, a trap will be sent.
Dying Gasp If the switch loses all power it will maintain power long enough to send a Dying Gasp message before completely shutting down. An SNMP trap, Syslog message and Link OAM PDUs will be generated. Scenarios A Dying Gasp event will be generated in the following scenarios: • Primary power supply failure (if only power supply present). • Primary power supply failure and then backup power supply failure. • Backup power supply failure and then primary power supply failure.
Link OAM PDU As soon as the power failure is detected an 802.3ah OAM Information PDU is sent to all ports for which link OAM is enabled and the LinkOAM port status is operational. The PDU will have the Dying Gasp bit set. Use the efm-oam and efm-oam port propagate-events commands to enable the generation of an 802.
3 Mounting OmniSwitch 6450 Switches This chapter covers different mounting and installation options. OmniSwitch 6450 switches may be either table- or rack-mounted. 24- and 48-port OmniSwitch 6450 switches are rack mounted using factoryinstalled rack mount flanges. 10-port (1/2 width) switches may be rack mounted using available rack mounting kits. Refer to “Available 10-Port Rack-Mounting Kits” on page 3-5 for details. Anti-Static Warning.
General Installation Recommendations Airflow Recommendations To ensure proper airflow, be sure that your switch is placed in a well-ventilated area and provide minimum recommended clearance at the front, back and sides of the switch, as shown below. Restricted airflow can cause your switch to overheat, which can lead to switch failure. } 6 inches minimum at rear of chassis. 2 inches minimum at left and right sides. } 6 inches minimum at front of chassis.
} 6 inches minimum at rear of chassis. 2 inches minimum at left and right sides. } 6 inches minimum at front of chassis. 10-Port Chassis Types Note. Clearance is not required at the top and bottom of the chassis. Clearance recommendations at the front and rear of chassis are for access to cabling and components only and are not intended as a specific airflow requirement.
Mechanical Loading Mounting of the equipment in the rack should be such that a hazardous condition is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading. Circuit Overloading Consideration should be given to the connection of the equipment to the supply circuit and the effect that overloading of the circuit might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring. Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when addressing this concern.
Rack-Mounting 10-Port OS6450 Switches The following kits are available for rack mounting 10-port (1/2 width) OmniSwitch 6450 switches. Note. Some factory-installed screws may need to be removed prior to mounting, depending on the kit being used.

Rack-Mounting 24 and 48-Port OS6450 Switches Note. For information on rack mounting half width 10-port OS6450 switches, refer to “Rack-Mounting 10-Port OS6450 Switches” on page 3-5. Refer to the important guidelines below before installing the OmniSwitch 6450 chassis on a rack. Note. When rack mounting multiple switches in a stacked configuration, be sure to place all switches in vertically-adjacent rack positions.
Rack Mounting Steps 1 Attach rack mount brackets to both sides of the chassis as shown. 2 Mark the holes on the rack where the switch is to be installed. 3 Lift and position the switch until the rack-mount brackets are flush with the rack post, then align the holes in the brackets with the rack holes that were marked at step 1. 4 Once the holes are aligned, insert a rack mount screw (not provided) through the bottom hole of each bracket. Tighten both screws until they are secure. Note.
5 Once the screws at the bottom of each bracket are secure, install the remaining two rack mount screws. Be sure that all screws are securely tightened.
Installing External PoE Power Supplies The following external power supplies provided PoE and backup system power for OmniSwitch 6450 PoE-ready switches: • PS-550W-AC-P (OS6450-P24) • PS-900AC-P (OS6450-P48) These power supplies may be rack mounted above or below the chassis for a 2RU configuration. The following sections describe how to rack-mount a power supply shelf and connect the power supply to the chassis with a cable.
5 Lift and position the shelf until the rack-mount flanges are flush with the rack post. 6 Align the holes in the flanges with the rack holes that were marked earlier. 7 Once the holes are aligned, insert a rack mount screw (not provided) through the bottom hole of each flange. Tighten both screws until they are secure. Note. Be sure to install the screws in the bottom hole of each flange, as shown, before proceeding.
DC Power Supply Considerations DC power supplies have the following additional considerations: • Connect to a -48V or -60V reliably grounded DC SELV source. • Use common DC return connections for the DC power supplies. The DC return terminal conductor • should be connected to the equipment frame. • The Branch Circuit Overcurrent Protection must be rated a Maximum of 15A. • Use 12AWG solid conductors only.
4 Booting OmniSwitch 6450 Switches For information on booting stand-alone switches and switches in stacked configurations, refer to the sections below. Booting an OmniSwitch The switch does not use an on/off switch. The power cord is the switch’s only connect/disconnect device. The power connector socket is located on the power supply rear panel. For more information, refer to “OmniSwitch 6450 Chassis and Hardware Components” on page 2-1.
Console Port The console port, located on the chassis front panel, provides a console connection to the switch and is required when logging into the switch for the first time. By default, this RJ-45 connector provides a DTE console connection.
5 To change the stop bits value, enter boot serialstopbits, followed by the number of stop bits. Options include 1 (default) and 2. For example: Boot > boot serialstopbits 2 6 Verify your current changes by entering show at the boot prompt: Boot > show Edit buffer contents: Serial (console) baud Serial (console) parity Serial (console) stopbits Serial (console) wordsize : : : : 19200 even 2 7 (additional table output not shown) 7 You can save your changes to the boot.
Monitoring the Chassis The OmniSwitch can be monitored and managed via the console port using Command Line Interface (CLI) commands. The switches can also be monitored and managed via the Ethernet using CLI commands, WebView, SNMP, and OmniVista. The section below provides some examples of useful hardware-related monitoring CLI commands. Refer to the OmniSwitch 6250/6450 CLI Reference Guide for detailed information on all management and monitoring commands used with the OmniSwitch.
Viewing the Power Supply Status To check the status of the power supply, use the show power command. For example: -> show power Slot PS Wattage Type Status Location ----+----+---------+------+-----------+---------1 1 30 AC UP Internal Additional Monitoring Commands CLI Commands Used for Monitoring a Chassis show cmm Displays the basic hardware and status information for primary and secondary management modules (if applicable).
5 Managing Power over Ethernet (PoE) Power over Ethernet (PoE) is supported on OmniSwitch 6450 switches and provides inline power directly from the switch’s Ethernet ports. Powered Devices (PDs) such as IP phones and wireless APs can be powered directly from the switch’s RJ-45 ports. As the feature reduces devices’ dependence on conventional power sources, PoE eliminates many restrictions that traditional electrical considerations have imposed on networks.
In This Chapter Managing Power over Ethernet (PoE) This chapter provides specifications and descriptions of hardware and software used to provide PoE for attached devices. The chapter also provides information on configuring PoE settings on the switch through the Command Line Interface (CLI). CLI commands are used in the configuration examples; for more details about the syntax of commands, see the OmniSwitch 6250/6450 CLI Reference Guide.

PoE Class Detection Powered devices can be classified into different classes as shown in the table below. Class detection allows for automatic maximum power adjustment based on the power class detected. This will prevent the switch from delivering more than the maximum power allowed based on a device’s class. During class detection the switch will allocate the maximum amount of power allowed based on the class detected.
Configuring the Total Power Available to a Port By default, each port is authorized by the system software to use up to a maximum amount of milliwatts to power any attached device. You can either increase or decrease this value based on the range in the specifications table. Increasing the total power available to an individual port may provide a more demanding Powered Device (PD) with additional power required for operation.
Setting Port Priority Levels As not all Powered Devices (PDs) connected to the switch have the same priority within a customer network setting, the switch allows the user to specify priority levels on a port-by-port basis. Priority levels include low, high, and critical. The default priority level for a port is low. • Low. This default value is used for port(s) that have low-priority devices attached. In the event of a power management issue, inline power to low-priority is interrupted first (i.e.
Understanding Priority Disconnect The priority disconnect function differs from the port priority function described on page 5-7 in that it applies only to the addition of powered devices (PDs) in tight power budget conditions. Priority disconnect is used by the system software in determining whether an incoming PD will be granted or denied power when there are too few watts remaining in the PoE power budget for an additional device.
Priority Disconnect is Enabled; Same Priority Level on All PD Reminder. Priority disconnect examples are applicable only when there is inadequate power remaining to power an incoming device. When a PD is being connected to a port with the same priority level as all other in the slot, the physical port number is used to determine whether the incoming PD will be granted or denied power. Lower numbered receive higher priority than higher-numbered.
Priority Disconnect is Disabled Reminder. Priority disconnect examples are applicable only when there is inadequate power remaining to power an incoming device. When priority disconnect is disabled, power will be denied to any incoming PD, regardless of its port priority status (i.e., low, high, and critical) or physical port number (i.e., 1/1). Monitoring Power over Ethernet via CLI To monitor current PoE statistics and settings, use the lanpower combo-port command.
6 Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks In addition to their working as individual stand-alone switches OmniSwitch 6450 switches can also be linked together to work as a single virtual chassis known as a stack. With stacks, users can easily expand their switching capacity simply by adding additional switches to the stack. In addition, stacks provide enhanced resiliency and redundancy features. For more information, refer to page 6-2.

Expansion Modules and Stacking Mode The switch’s stacking mode (stackable versus standalone) is configured through auto-detection for 24-port and 48-port models. During the boot process, the switch determines the type of expansion module installed and sets the stacking mode accordingly. Swapping Expansion Modules A reboot is required when adding or swapping “unlike” module types (e.g.
Roles Within the Stack In order to operate as a virtual chassis, switches within an OmniSwitch 6450 stack are assigned specific roles. These roles include primary and secondary management roles, idle status, and pass-through. For detailed descriptions of each of these roles, including their practical functions within the virtual chassis, refer to the sections below.
Note. For management module redundancy to work effectively, the software on all switches operating in the stack must be synchronized at all times. Refer to “Synchronizing Switches in a Stack” on page 6-37 for more information. Primary Secondary 1 A stack of four OmniSwitch 6450 switches is operating normally. The stack consists of a primary module, secondary module, and two elements operating in idle status. (The software on all elements in the stack is synchronized.
1 A stack of two OmniSwitch 6450 switches is operating normally. The stack consists of a primary module and a secondary module. (The software on both elements in the stack is synchronized.) 2 The primary management module fails or is taken offline (e.g., powered off or rebooted by the user). 3 The switch operating as the secondary management module immediately takes over the primary role. It is at this point essentially operating as a stand-alone switch.
Primary Management Module Selection For a stack of OmniSwitch 6450 switches to operate as a virtual chassis, there must be a mechanism for dynamically selecting the switch within the stack that will assume the primary management role. OmniSwitch 6450 switches use three different methods for selecting the primary switch. These methods are: • Chassis MAC address • Saved slot number • Chassis uptime Note. Information on secondary management module selection is provided on page 6-10.
Using Saved Slot Information The saved slot number is the slot number the switch will assume following a reboot. This information is stored in a switch’s boot.slot.cfg file; the switch reads its slot number assignment from this file at bootup and assumes the specified slot number within the stack. If switches in a stacked configuration have no preconfigured slot assignments, the slot number for each switch is dynamically assigned by the system software.
Using Switch Uptime A user can override both the MAC address and saved slot methods for determining a stack’s primary management module. This is done by controlling the uptime of switches in the stack. If all elements of a stack are powered off, the user can force a particular switch to become primary by powering on that switch and waiting a minimum of 15 seconds before powering on any other switches. This can be useful if the user wants a switch placed in a specific location, e.g.
Secondary Management Module Selection In order to provide effective management module redundancy, all OmniSwitch 6450 stacked configurations dynamically assign a backup, or secondary, management module during the boot process. OmniSwitch 6450 stacks use two different methods for selecting the secondary switch.
Using Saved Slot Information If a stack with preassigned slot information for each switch is booted, the switch with the second lowest slot value is assigned the secondary management role. For example, if a stack of four switches is booted and the preassigned slot values for each switch are 1, 2, 3, and 4, the switch with the slot value of 2 is assigned the secondary role. Meanwhile, the switch with the slot value of 1 is assigned the primary management role (see page 6-8).
Idle Module Role Switches that are not assigned either the primary or secondary role in a stack are, by default, assigned the role of idle modules. These idle modules operate similarly to Network Interface (NI) modules in a chassisbased switch. It is the job of idle modules to send and receive traffic. In the event of a management module failure within the stack, the idle module with the next lowest slot number in the stack will automatically assume the secondary management role.
Pass-Through Mode The pass-through mode is a state in which a switch has attempted to join a stack but has been denied primary, secondary, and idle status. When a switch is in the pass-through mode, its Ethernet ports are brought down (i.e, they cannot pass traffic). Its stacking cable connections remain fully functional and can pass traffic through to other switches in the stack. In this way, the pass-through mode provides a mechanism to prevent the stack ring from being broken.
To avoid a pass-through condition following a reboot, make sure that all saved slot values for the stack are unique. Use the stack set slot command.
To resolve this pass-through condition, simply assign slot 1001 a new saved slot value and reboot the module.
In some pass-through conditions (for example, larger stacks where multiple switches are in pass-through mode), it might be desirable to correct any duplicate saved slot assignments and then reboot the entire stack. The recovery from pass-through can be accomplished with fewer steps than reassigning slot numbers and rebooting modules on a slot-by-slot basis.
Stack Cabling Switches in a stack are connected to each other by stacking cables. These stacking cables provide highspeed, dual-redundant links between switches in a stack. Stacking cables for OmniSwitch 6450 switches must be connected in an A-B pattern. In other words, the cable connected to stacking port A of one switch must be connected to stacking port B of the adjacent switch.
Redundant Stacking Cable Connection OmniSwitch 6450 switches allow redundant stacking cable connections between the top-most and bottommost switches in a stack. Note. For a stacked configuration to have effective redundancy, a redundant stacking cable must be installed between the upper-most and bottom-most switch in the chassis at all times.
Redundant stacking cables provide a form of dual redundancy. As shown in the figure above, the redundant cable allows traffic to flow in the event of a stacking link failure. The redundant cable also provides failover if a switch goes down within the stack. Traffic continues to flow between the modules that remain operational, as shown in the diagram below: Stacking Cables Chassis Front Slot 1 1 Data enters slot 1 through an Ethernet port.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks For a stack of OmniSwitch 6450 switches to operate as a virtual chassis, each module in the stack must be assigned a unique slot number. To view the current slot assignments for a stack, use the show ni or show module commands. The slot number is also displayed on the front panel of each switch by the LED located on the left side of the chassis (refer to “OmniSwitch 6450 LED Status” on page 2-23 for more information).
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Slot Numbering Dynamic slot number assignment occurs when there are no boot.slot.cfg files present in the switches’ /flash directories. This is the case for new, “out of the box,” switches that have not been previously booted. When a brand new stack (or stack with no boot.slot.cfg files) is booted, the system software automatically detects the module with the lowest MAC address.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks If the switch with the lowest MAC address happens to be the bottom-most module in the stack, slot numbering will not resume from the top of the stack. Instead, the system software will select the secondary module using the standard method (i.e., the switch connected to the primary’s stacking port A), then continue to number the stack from the bottom up. This intuitive slot assignment provides the cleanest and most manageable stack topology.
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Slot Numbering To manually assign slot numbers to one or more modules in a stack, use the stack set slot command. This command writes slot information to the boot.slot.cfg file located in a switch’s /flash directory. It is this saved slot information that the switch will assume following a reboot.
Slot Numbering Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks When the stack comes up following the reboot, the manually-configured slot numbers display as follows: Slot 1 - Primary Slot 2 - Secondary Slot 3 - Idle Slot 4 - Idle Stack Numbering Before Manual Assignment The stack set slot command can also be used to manually correct duplicate saved slot assignments within the stack topology. Refer to pages 6-13 through 6-15 for detailed information. To clear the boot.slot.
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Hot-Swapping Modules In a Stack As with chassis-based switches, NI modules within an OmniSwitch 6450 virtual chassis are hot-swappable. NI modules are essentially those modules operating in the stack in idle mode. These modules can be removed from, or added to, an existing stack without disrupting other modules in the stack.
Hot-Swapping Modules In a Stack Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Merging stacks involves connecting two or more operational stacks and attempting to reboot them as a single virtual chassis. In most cases, errors will result. To merge stacks without causing errors, select one stack that is to remain up and running and then add modules from the other stack(s) by following the steps below: 1 Make sure all switches are running the same software version.
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Reloading Switches Reloading is essentially a soft boot of a switch. Users can reload stacked modules operating in any role— i.e., primary, secondary, idle, and pass-through. Refer to the sections below for more information. If the switch with the primary management role is reloaded, the switch with the secondary role automatically takes over primary management functions.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks If there are only two switches in the stack, the switch that was reloaded (the former primary) assumes the secondary role when it comes back up. Primary - Slot 1 Secondary - Slot 2 -> reload primary Booting... Primary - Slot 2 Secondary - Slot 1 Primary - Slot 2 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6450 switches, the slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary.
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Reloading Switches If the switch with secondary management role is reloaded, the idle switch with the lowest slot number will automatically assume the secondary role. The reloaded switch (the former secondary) will assume an idle role when it comes back up. Meanwhile, the switch with the primary management role, as well as any other idle modules in the stack, continue operations without interruption. To reload the secondary management module, use the reload command.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks If there are only two switches in the stack, the switch that was reloaded (the former secondary) resumes the secondary role when it comes back up. Primary - Slot 1 Secondary - Slot 2 -> reload secondary 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6450 switches, the slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary. 2 The user reloads the stack’s secondary management module by issuing the reload secondary command.
Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Reloading Switches Similar to reloading Network Interface (NI) modules on chassis-based switches, modules operating in idle status within a stack can be reloaded via the CLI. Note. Any traffic being passed on the module’s Ethernet will be interrupted during the reboot. Other modules within the stack will continue to operate without interruption. To reset a single module operating in idle mode, use the reload ni command.
Reloading Switches Managing OmniSwitch 6450 Stacks Reloading all switches in the stack is essentially a full reboot of the virtual chassis. This can be useful in restoring a stack’s previously configured topology—i.e., the stack’s saved slot numbers and management roles. Note, however, that all data flow on the stack is interrupted whenever a full reboot is issued. To reset all switches in a stack use the reload all command. For example: -> reload all Note.
No Switches In the Stack Have Saved Slot Information If a full reload is issued and no switches in the stack have unique slot numbers, slot numbers will be assigned beginning with the switch with the lowest MAC address. (This can occur if the boot.slot.cfg file has been deleted from each switch’s /flash directory—e.g., by issuing the stack clear slot command for all modules in the stack.) The switch with the lowest MAC address is assigned slot number 1 and given the primary management role.
Avoiding Split Stacks The term “splitting” a stack refers to the creation of isolated modules within the virtual chassis. A split stack can result from the following conditions: • Two or more non-adjacent switches are reloaded simultaneously • The stack is reloaded without a redundant stacking cable connection The sections below offer simple guidelines for avoiding splitting the stack during the reload process.
Changing the Secondary Module to Primary OmniSwitch 6450 stacks allow users to manually force the secondary switch to assume the primary management role. This is referred to as “takeover.” The behavior of a takeover is similar to that of reloading the primary management module (see page 6-27). Whenever a takeover is initiated, the switch with the secondary role automatically takes over primary management functions.
If there are only two switches in the stack, the former primary switch resumes the secondary role when it comes back up following the takeover. Primary - Slot 1 Secondary - Slot 2 -> takeover Booting... Primary - Slot 2 Secondary - Slot 1 Primary - Slot 2 1 In this stack of two OmniSwitch 6450 switches, the slot 1 switch is the primary management module. The slot 2 switch is the secondary. 2 A takeover is initiated by the user; the primary management module is automatically reloaded.
Synchronizing Switches in a Stack Management module synchronization refers to the process of copying all files in the /flash/working and /flash/certified directories of the primary management module to the /flash/working and /flash/certified directories of all the other switches in the stack. The system and configuration software on the nonprimary switches—i.e., the secondary management module and any modules operating in idle—is overwritten.
Monitoring the Stack As shown in the previous sections, monitoring the current status and operation of all elements in a stack can help users avoid unexpected stack conditions. The table below includes CLI commands that are useful in monitoring stack conditions. CLI Commands Used for Monitoring a Stack show stack topology Displays the current operating topology of switches within a stack. show stack status Displays the current redundant stacking cable status.
CLI Commands Supported on Both Primary and Secondary Management Modules Although most CLI commands are executed when logged into the switch with the primary management role, there is a group of commands that is supported when logged in to either the primary or secondary management module. For a list of these commands, refer to the tables below. Note. For detailed information on these commands, including command syntax options and definitions, refer to the OmniSwitch 6250/6450 CLI Reference Guide.
