FastIron GS Compact Layer 2 Switch Hardware Installation Guide • A management station, such as a PC running a terminal emulation application. • A straight-through EIA/TIA DB-9 serial cable (F/F). This cable can be ordered separately from Foundry Networks. If you prefer to build your own cable, see the pinout information in “Attaching a PC or Terminal” on page 3-16. You use the serial connection to perform basic configuration tasks such as assigning an IP address and network mask to the system.
Installing the FastIron GS Chassis Table 3.1: Summary of Installation Tasks (Continued) Task No. Task Where to Find More Information 10 Once you power on the device and assign IP addresses, the system is ready to accept network equipment. “Connecting Network Devices” on page 4-4 11 Test IP connectivity by pinging other devices and tracing routes. “Testing Connectivity” on page 4-6 12 Continue configuration using the CLI or the Web management interface.
FastIron GS Compact Layer 2 Switch Hardware Installation Guide Power Supply Precautions The following precautions apply to FastIron GS POE 48-port devices: • If your FastIron GS POE chassis has 48 ports and only one power supply, and each POE-enabled port needs 15.4 watts, then a maximum of 31 ports can supply power to connected devices.
Installing the FastIron GS Chassis WARNING: Power supplies are hot swappable. However, Foundry Networks recommends that you disconnect the power supply from AC power before installing or removing the supply. The device can be running while a power supply is being installed or removed, but the power supply itself should not be connected to a power source. Otherwise, you could be injured or the power supply or other parts of the device could be damaged.
FastIron GS Compact Layer 2 Switch Hardware Installation Guide You will need the following tools to perform these procedures: • #2 Phillips-head screwdriver Installing an AC Power Supply WARNING: Before beginning the installation, see the precautions in “Power Supply Precautions” on page 3-4. Use the following procedures for installing AC power supplies in the FastIron GS. To install an AC power supply, do the following: 1.
Installing the FastIron GS Chassis 4. With one hand, hold the bar on the front panel of the power supply. With the other hand, support the underside of the power supply, and insert the power supply into the empty power supply slot. Press until the supply is completely in the slot, so that the connectors on the back of the supply fully engage with the pins on the power backplane. CAUTION: Make sure you insert the power supply right-side up.

Maintaining the FastIron GS Hardware Replacing a Fiber Optic Module You can remove an SFP or XFP from a port and replace it with a new one while the FGS is powered on and running. This section provides information about the following tasks: • Removing a fiber optic module • Installing a new fiber optic module • Cabling a fiber optic module Removing a Fiber Optic Module You can remove a fiber SFP (also called a mini-GBIC) or an XFP from a port while the FGS is powered on and running.
FastIron GS Compact Layer 2 Switch Hardware Installation Guide Installing a New Fiber Optic Module You must install a fiber optic module (SFP or XFP transceiver) in each Gigabit Ethernet and 10-Gigabit Ethernet fiber port you want to use. You can install a new fiber optic module in a port while the Foundry device is powered on and running. To install a fiber optic module, you will need an ESD wrist strap with a plug for connection to a metal surface.
Maintaining the FastIron GS Hardware Digital Optical Monitoring You can configure your Foundry device to monitor XFPs in the system either globally or by specified port. If monitoring is enabled, console messages, syslog messages, and SNMP traps are sent when XFP operating conditions warrant and a port is enabled.
FastIron GS Compact Layer 2 Switch Hardware Installation Guide NOTE: This function takes advantage of information stored and supplied by the XFP device. This information is an optional feature of the Multi-Source Agreement standard defining the XFP interface. Not all component suppliers have implemented this feature set.
