Vixel Model 335 Installation & Configuration Guide	CHAPTER 2 Installation

Setting Up the Switch

Before the switch can establish communication with your network, its IP Address needs to be changed from its default value.

To set the IP Address:

1.Attach one end of an RS-232 null modem cable to the serial port on the workstation; attach the other end to the RS-232 port on the switch.

2.For Unix workstations, type the following command at a Unix prompt (where SerialPortDevicePath is the filepath to the serial port used for connection): cu -s 19200 -b 8 -1 SerialPortDevicePath

For Windows® platforms, open a terminal session through a terminal emulation program (such as HyperTerminal) with the appropriate serial port (for example, COM1) and the following serial port parameters:

•Bits per second: 19200

•Data bits: 8

•Parity: None

•Stop bits: 1

•Flow control: Xon/Xoff

You are now connected to the CLI.

3.To log onto the CLI, type li at the prompt, then type the password (the default pass- word is password).

4.To change the switch’s IP parameters, type co and then type 1 to change the switch’s IP address.

5.If you want to change the switch’s netmask and default gateway, type 2 and 3, respectively.

6.Type 5 to save changes and reset the management agent. (The management agent must be reset for the change to take affect.)

7.To log off the CLI, type lo at the prompt.

For more information on configuring the switch through the CLI, see “Using the

Command Line Interface (CLI)” on page 36.

Attaching Devices

CAUTION: Forcing an SFP into a port may damage the SFP and/or port.

To attach devices to the switch:

1.Insert an active (that is, Ethernet hub- or Ethernet switch-attached) Ethernet RJ-45 twisted pair cable into the switch’s 10BaseT management port and ensure that the Enet Act (Green) LED is on (LED illuminates).

Note: You can attach cables to SFPs before or after SFP insertion (the switch bypasses ports that do not have attached cables).

2.Remove dust covers or plugs from the SFPs, if provided.

3.For each device:

a.Attach a cable to the device.

b.Attach the other end of the cable to a SFP and insert the SFP into a switch port, using minimal pressure and fitting the SFP housing’s integral guide key into the port until the SFP’s tabs click into place.
