The switch also identifies the number of the port on which each address is learned so it knows the relative network location of each device. Forwarding, Filtering, Flooding. When the switch receives a packet, it determines the destination address, and looks for the address in the address table.
honda.book Page 1 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM 2 Installing the Switch 408 The HP ProCurve Switch 408 is easy to install. It comes with four rubber feet that can be attached so the switch can be securely located on any level surface (for example, a table or shelf). A mounting kit (5183-7210) is also available that provides a variety of mounting options including in a standard 19-inch EIA equipment rack or cabinet, on a wall, or under a horizontal surface.
honda.book Page 2 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures Installation Procedures Summary Follow these easy steps to install your switch. The rest of this chapter provides details on these steps. 1. Prepare the installation site. Make sure of the following: • the network cabling is the correct type and length. See page 2-5. • the network topology is correct. See page 2-10.
honda.book Page 3 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures Installation Precautions: Follow these precautions when installing your Switch 408. Cautions ■ Make sure that you use the power adapter supplied with the switch to connect it to an AC power source.
honda.book Page 4 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures ■ 2-4 Connect no devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration. Because the switch 408 complies with the IEEE 802.3u standard, if a device connected to the switch has a fixed configuration of full duplex, the device will not connect correctly to the switch. Make sure all devices connected to the Switch 408 are configured to auto negotiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex.
honda.book Page 5 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures 1. Prepare the Installation Site ■ Cabling Infrastructure - Make sure that the cabling infrastructure meets the necessary network specifications. Because of the HP Auto-MDIX feature, for connections to end nodes (computers, servers, printers and other peripherals), or connections to hubs or other switches, you can use “straight-through” cables.
honda.book Page 6 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures 2. Verify the Switch Passes Its Self Test Before mounting the switch in its network location, you should first check that it is working properly by plugging it into a power source and verifying that it passes its self test. 1. Connect the adapter’s power cord to the power connector on the back of the switch, and then plug the AC power adapter into a nearby properly grounded electrical outlet.
honda.book Page 7 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures Switch port LEDs Power and Fault LEDs When the switch is powered on, it performs its diagnostic self test. The self test takes approximately 3 seconds to complete. LED Behavior: During the self test: • All the switch and port LEDs are on. When the self test completes successfully: • The Power LED stays on and the Fault LED goes off.

honda.book Page 9 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Installation Procedures 4. Connect the Switch to a Power Source 1. Plug the included AC power adapter into the switch’s power connector and into a nearby AC power source. 2. Re-check the LEDs during self test. See “LED Behavior” on page 2-7. 5. Connect the Network Cables Using the RJ-45 Connectors (10/100Base-TX ports) To connect: Push the RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45 jack until the tab on the plug clicks into place.
honda.book Page 10 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Sample Network Topologies Sample Network Topologies This section shows you two sample network topologies in which the Switch 408 is implemented. Note Make sure the network into which you are installing the Switch 408 has a valid topology: there should be no loops in the data paths connected to the switch, and all twistedpair connections should be no more than 100 meters.
honda.book Page 11 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Sample Network Topologies As a Segment Switch Server 100 Mbps connection through category 5 twisted-pair cable 100Base-TX connection to a backbone switch Switch 408 twisted-pair cables twisted-pair cables Ethernet Hubs PCs, printers, and local servers In general, the Switch 408 is designed to be used as a desktop switch, but it can also be used as a segment switch.
honda.book Page 12 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Installing the Switch 408 Sample Network Topologies Note that because of the HP Auto-MDIX feature, all twisted-pair connections between the switch and the MDI-X ports or MDI ports on hubs, and the connections to the end nodes and the servers can be through “straight-through” cables. You can also use “crossover” cables for these connections.
honda.book Page 1 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM 3 Troubleshooting This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your Switch 408 including the following: ■ basic troubleshooting tips (page 3-1) ■ diagnosing with the LEDs (page 3-3) ■ hardware diagnostic tests (page 3-5) ■ HP Customer Support Services (page 3-6) Basic Troubleshooting Tips Most problems are caused by the following situations: ■ Connecting to devices with a fixed full-duplex configuration.
honda.book Page 2 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Troubleshooting Basic Troubleshooting Tips Because the Switch 408 behaves in this way (in compliance with the IEEE 802.3u standard), if a device connected to the switch has a fixed configuration at full duplex, the device will not connect correctly to the Switch 408. The result will be high error rates and high collision rates, and very inefficient communications between the switch and the device.
honda.book Page 3 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Troubleshooting Diagnosing With the LEDs In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains no data path loops. Between any two end nodes, there should be only one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast storms that will severely impact your network performance. Diagnosing With the LEDs Table 3-1 shows LED patterns on the switch that indicate problem conditions. 1.
honda.book Page 4 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Troubleshooting Diagnosing With the LEDs Diagnostic Tips: Tip Number 3-4 Problem Solution ➊ The switch’s power adapter is not plugged into an active AC power source, or the power adapter may have failed. 1. Verify that the AC power adapter is plugged into an active power source and to the switch. Make sure these connections are snug. 2. Try power cycling the switch by unplugging and plugging in the power. 3.
honda.book Page 5 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Troubleshooting Hardware Diagnostic Tests Hardware Diagnostic Tests Testing the Switch by Resetting It If you believe that the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch to test its circuitry. To reset the switch, unplug and plug in the adapter’s power cord (power cycling). Power cycling causes the switch to perform its power-on self-test, and almost always will resolve any temporary operational problems.
honda.book Page 6 Wednesday, April 18, 2001 2:50 PM Troubleshooting HP Customer Support Services Testing End-to-End Network Communications Both the switch and the cabling can be tested by running an end-toend communications test -- a test that sends known data from one network device to another through the switch.
