Brocade 5100 Installation and Configuration ● Installation and safety considerations............................................................................. 17 ● Items included with the Brocade 5100............................................................................ 20 ● Installing a standalone Brocade 5100............................................................................. 21 ● Rack installation for a Brocade 5100........................................................................
Power precautions CAUTION Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface. CAUTION Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices. To avoid damage, keep static-sensitive devices in their static-protective packages until you are ready to install them. Wear a wrist grounding strap connected to chassis ground (if the device is plugged in) or a bench ground.
Environmental considerations DANGER Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type. Dispose of used batteries according to the instructions. Environmental considerations For successful installation and operation of the switch, ensure that the following environmental requirements are met: • At a minimum, adequate cooling requires that you install the switch with the non-port side, which contains the air intake vents, facing the cool-air aisle.
Recommendations for cable management Recommendations for cable management The minimum bend radius for a 50 micron cable is 2 inches under full tensile load and 1.2 inches with no tensile load. Cables can be organized and managed in a variety of ways, for example, using cable channels on the sides of the rack or patch panels to minimize cable management. Following is a list of recommendations: NOTE You should not use tie wraps with optical cables because they are easy to over tighten.
Installing a standalone Brocade 5100 ‐ ‐ ‐ Rubber feet, required for setting up the switch as a standalone unit Brocade 5100 QuickStart Guide EZSwitchSetup CD Installing a standalone Brocade 5100 Perform this task to install the Brocade 5100 as a standalone unit. 1. Unpack the Brocade 5100 and verify the items listed on Items included with the Brocade 5100 on page 20. Verify the items are present and undamaged. 2. Apply the adhesive rubber feet.
Brocade 5100 configuration Brocade 5100 configuration Once you have set up the Brocade 5100 in a rack or as a standalone switch, it is time to give it power and a basic configuration. If you are going to use the Brocade 5100 in a single-switch setup, you can use EZSwitchSetup to complete the basic configuration. See the EZSwitchSetup CD , included with the Brocade 5100 for more information. You can also use the Brocade 5100 Quick Start Guide .
Switch IP address Parameter Value Stop bits 1 Flow control None • In a UNIX environment, enter the following string at the prompt: tip /dev/ttyb -9600 If ttyb is already in use, use ttya instead and enter the following string at the prompt: tip /dev/ttya -9600 Switch IP address You can configure the Brocade 5100 with a static IP address, or you can use a DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server to set the IP address of the switch. DHCP is enabled by default.
Date and time settings Date and time settings The Brocade 5100 maintains the current date and time inside a battery-backed real-time clock (RTC) circuit. Date and time are used for logging events. Switch operation does not depend on the date and time; a Brocade 5100 with an incorrect date and time value still functions properly. However, because the date and time are used for logging, error detection, and troubleshooting, you should set them correctly.
Setting the date The tsClockServer command accepts multiple server addresses in either IPv4, IPv6, or DNS name formats. When multiple NTP server addresses are passed, tsclockserver sets the first obtainable address as the active NTP server. The rest are stored as backup servers that can take over if the active NTP server fails. The principal or primary FCS switch synchronizes its time with the NTP server every 64 seconds. Setting the date Perform the following steps to set the date on the switch. 1.
Synchronizing local time using NTP The following procedure describes how to set the current time zone using interactive mode to Pacific Standard Time. 1. Type the tsTimeZone command as follows: switch:admin> tstimezone --interactive 2. You are prompted to select a general location. Please identify a location so that time zone rules can be set correctly. 3. Enter the appropriate number or Ctrl-D to quit. 4. At the prompt, select a country location. 5.

Boot Boot In addition to POST, boot includes the following tasks after POST is complete: 1. Performs universal port configuration. 2. Initializes links. 3. Analyzes fabric. If any ports are connected to other switches, the switch participates in a fabric configuration. 4. Obtains a domain ID and assigning port addresses. 5. Constructs unicast routing tables. 6. Enables normal port operation.
Installing an SFP Installing an SFP The Brocade 5100 only supports Brocade-branded SFPs. If you use an unqualified SFP, the switchShow command output shows the port in a Mod_Inv state. Fabric OS also logs the issue in the system error log. Complete the following steps to install an SFP. 1. Making sure that the bail (wire handle) is in the unlocked position, place the SFP in the correctly oriented position on the port, as shown in the following figure. 2.
Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) Field Replaceable Units (FRUs) The power supplies have the fans inside and can be replaced onsite without the use of special tools. The power supply/fan assembly units are keyed to ensure correct orientation during installation. Replacement instructions are provided with all replacement units ordered. Power supply/fan assembly FRU replacement The Brocade 5100 fans are fixed inside the integrated power supply/fan FRU to provide necessary airflow to cool the whole system.
Managing the Brocade 5100 Managing the Brocade 5100 You can use the management functions built into the Brocade 5100 to monitor the fabric topology, port status, physical status, and other information to help you analyze switch performance and to accelerate system debugging. The Brocade 5100 automatically performs power-on-self-test (POST) each time it is turned on. Any errors are recorded in the error log. For more information about POST, see POST and boot specifications on page 30.
Removal and Replacement of Combined Power Supply and Fan Assembly (Port-side Air Exhaust) ● Before beginning installation........................................................................................... 35 ● Installing a combined power supply and fan assembly FRU...........................................35 Before beginning installation This section describes how to change a power supply/fan assembly for a unit with a port-side air exhaust.
Time required CAUTION Changes or modifications made to this device that are not expressly approved by the party responsible for compliance could void the user's authority to operate the equipment. Because the cooling system relies on pressurized air, do not leave any of the fan assembly slots empty longer than two minutes while the switch is operating. If a fan assembly fails, leave it in the switch until it can be replaced. Maintain all fan assemblies in operational condition to provide redundancy.
Removal and Replacement of Combined Power Supply and Fan Assembly (Port-side Air Exhaust) 1. Unscrew the captive screw on the power supply/fan assembly you are replacing using a Phillips-head screwdriver. 2. Remove the power supply/fan assembly from the chassis by pulling the handle out, away from the chassis. 3.
