Setup For Initial Configuration; Connect Network Cables; Using Rj-45 Out-Of-Band Management Port - HP aruba 9300-32D Series Installation And Getting Started Manual

the PSU uses High Line (220VAC). For production environment, the 9300-32D requires High Line (220VAC)
to ensure proper operations.
One power supply with high line power provides power to operate the switch. Installing a second power
supply can provide power to the switch in case the initial power supply fails. If the power supplies are
plugged into different AC power sources, redundant power can be supplied in case of loss of one of the
AC power sources.

Setup for Initial Configuration

You can perform the initial configuration of the switch using one of these methods:
Using Zero Touch Provisioning (ZTP): Use ZTP to configure a switch automatically from a remote server.
n
The switch must be in the factory default configuration. If ZTP is to be used, your network administrator or
installation site coordinator must provide an RJ-45 cable connected to the appropriate network. Connect the
switch to the network using the RJ-45 out-of-band management port and power on the switch (or power off,
then power on the switch). The ZTP operation is attempted for the first 10 minutes after the switch is
powered on. For more information about ZTP, see the Fundamentals Guide for your switch and software
release.
Using the Aruba CX mobile app: The Aruba CX mobile app can connect to the switch through the USB
n
Bluetooth adapter. For information about using the Aruba CX mobile app to configure the switch, see the
Fundamentals Guide for your switch and software release.
Using an out-of-band serial console: Use a workstation configured with suitable VT-100 terminal
n
emulation software and connect the workstation to the switch's RJ-45 Console Port. A DB9-to-RJ-45 console
cable can be ordered from HPE: JL448A, Aruba X2C2 RJ45 to DB9 Console Cable. For more information about
this method see Initial Configuration with an Out-of-Band Serial
Using connections to the out-of-band dedicated management network: Use a workstation
n
configured with suitable VT-100 terminal emulation software and SSH software. Connect the workstation
and the switch to the same management network. Connect the switch to the network using the RJ-45 out-of-
band management port. For more information about using this method, see the Fundamentals Guide for
your switch and software release. The switch can simultaneously support one console session through the
console port and multiple network SSH sessions through the management port.

Connect Network Cables

Connect the network cables from the network devices or your patch panels to the RJ-45 out-of-band
management port on the switch or to any transceivers you have installed in the switch. See
Installation Site for further detail.

Using RJ-45 Out-of-band Management Port

If you plan to manage the switch from a dedicated management network, connect an RJ-45 network cable
from the management network to the Mgmt port. The Mgmt port supports 10, 100, and 1000 Mbps
connections.
To connect:
Push the RJ-45 plug into the RJ-45 port until the tab on the plug clicks into place. When power is on for the
switch and for the connected device, the Link LED for the port should light to confirm a powered-on device
(for example, an end node) is at the other end of the cable.
