CHAPTER 4

Switch Setup

This chapter describes how to handle and set up a Cabletron ATM switch prior to its operation.

4.1Introduction

Before installing a Cabletron ATM switch, there are several important factors that must be taken into consideration, depending on the type of installation site. The following sections discuss in detail how to install a Cabletron ATM switch and any prerequisites to the installation.

NOTE: It is important to read through the ENTIRE installation procedure before attempting to turn on the power to the unit.

4.2Unpacking

Upon receipt of, and before opening your Cabletron ATM switch, inspect the package for any damage that may have occurred during shipping. If the pack- age shows any signs of external damage or rough handling, notify your car- rier’s representative.

When unpacking your Cabletron ATM switch, be sure to keep all original packing materials. They may be needed for storing, transporting, or returning the product.

For example, an OC-3c network module that is removed from slot A of the old switch fabric must be installed in slot A of the new switch fabric. Therefore, it is recommended that you label all network connections and network modules before removing them 5-17 Hardware Maintenance ProceduresCAUTION Make sure the replacement board is properly aligned in the slot in the next step Hardware Maintenance Procedures 5-18 CHAPTER Software Upgrade Instructionseject device 6.1 Obtaining the Software Upgrade File via DisketteSoftware Upgrade Instructions tar -xvf deviceSoftware Upgrade Instructions foreextract deviceoperation upgrade ? 6.2 Performing the Software Upgrademkdir /tftpboot mv ﬁlename /tftpbootoperation upgrade 169.144.3.54asx-scp4.0.01.3 operation upgrade 169.144.3.54ASX-200BX4.0.01.3Software Upgrade Instructions Reboot the switchy? y Software Upgrade InstructionsSoftware Upgrade Instructions 6.3 Changing between Multiple Versions of SoftwareSoftware Upgrade Instructions localhostoperation rebootAre you sure you want to reboot this switch n? y Software Upgrade Instructions 6.4 Using bootp to Download Software to the Switch6.4.2 Setting Up Your bootp Server 6.4.1 Overview6.4.3 Adding an Entry for Your Switch in the bootptab File 6-10Software Upgrade Instructions 6-11 Software Upgrade InstructionsThe variables in the previous example are deﬁned as follows 6.4.4 Setting Up a tftpboot Server 6-12Software Upgrade Instructions Troubleshooting A.1 Adapter Hardware TroubleshootingAPPENDIX A Figure A.1 -
