This chapter introduces the 5H102-48 and 5H103-48 Fast Ethernet modules. Depending on the firmware version used in the module, some features described in this document may not be supported. Refer to the Release Notes shipped with the module to determine which features are supported.
History groups are enabled on all ports by default. The Enterasys Networks RMON Actions is a vendor-specific extension of RMON and provides the ability to set an “Action” on any SNMP MIB variable. The Action can be triggered by any RMON Event and/or Alarm.
SNMP-compliant Network Management Software, such as Enterasys Networks’ NetSight and Aprisma Management Technology’s SPECTRUM for Open Systems suite of management products. In-band management using Telnet and Enterasys Networks’ Webview is also provided. Out-of-band Local Management is provided through the RJ45 COM port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator.
1.10 STANDARDS COMPATIBILITY The 5H102-48 and 5H103-48 modules are fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3, 802.3u, 802.3x, 802.1D, and 802.1Q standards. The modules provide IEEE 802.1D Spanning Tree Algorithm (STA) support to enhance the overall reliability of the network and protect against “loop”...
Failure to do so will produce poor network performance. NOTE: The MATRIX E5 Series Modules Local Management User’s Guide and Cabling Guide referred to in the following sections can be found on the Enterasys Networks World Wide Web site: http://www.enterasys.com/...
100BASE-TX Network 100BASE-TX NETWORK The fixed front panel ports of the module provide a connection that supports Category 5 UTP cabling. The device at the other end of the twisted pair segment must meet IEEE 802.3u 100BASE-TX Fast Ethernet network requirements for the devices to operate at 100 Mbps. Refer to the Cabling Guide for details.
NOTE: Read the Release Notes shipped with the module to check for any exceptions to the supported features and operation documented in this guide. This chapter provides the instructions to install the 5H102-48 or 5H103-48 module. A Phillips screwdriver is required to install options into the module. Follow the order of the sections listed below to correctly install the module.
1. Open the box and remove the packing material protecting the module. 2. Verify the contents of the carton as listed in Table 3-1 Contents of Module Carton Item One module, either the 5H102-48 or the 5H103-48 Antistatic Wrist Strap RJ21 Angle Adapter Manual Accessory Kit 3.
Observe all precautions to prevent damage from Electrostatic Discharge (ESD). 5. Examine the module for damage. If any damage exists, DO NOT install the module. Immediately contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to CAUTION: To prevent damaging the backplane connectors in the following step, take care that the module slides in straight and properly engages the backplane connectors.
3.3.1 Connecting UTP Cables to the 5H102-48 The fixed front panel ports of the 5H102-48 are 10/100 RJ45 ports with internal crossovers. When connecting a workstation to these ports, use a straight-through cable. When connecting networking devices to these ports, such as a bridge, repeater, or router, use a crossover cable.
Connecting to the Network Figure 3-2 Connecting a Twisted Pair Segment to the 5H102-48 3. Verify that a link exists by checking that the port RX (Receive) LED is ON (flashing amber, blinking green, or solid green). If the RX LED is OFF and the TX (Transmit) LED is not blinking amber, perform the following steps until it is on: a.
Ensure that the twisted pair connection meets the dB loss and cable specifications outlined in the Cabling Guide. Refer to document. If a link is not established, contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to Guide for details. 4. Repeat all the steps above until all connections have been made.
Connecting to the Network 3.3.2 Connecting UTP Cables to the 5H103-48 When facing the front panel of the 5H103-48, the RJ21 connectors from top to bottom represent Ethernet/Fast Ethernet segments 1 through 12, segments 13 through 24, 25 through 36, and 37 through 48, respectively.
Connecting to the Network Figure 3-6 Connection Using the RJ21 Angle Adapter Figure 3-7 Example of Cable Placement When Using the RJ21 Angle Adapters Installation...
Verify that the RJ21 connectors on the twisted pair segment have the proper pinouts and check the cable for continuity. c. Check that the twisted pair connection meets the specifications in the Cabling Guide. If a link is not established, contact Enterasys Networks. Refer to Guide for details.
This chapter provides information concerning the following: • Using LANVIEW (Section • Troubleshooting Checklist • Using the RESET Button USING LANVIEW The modules use a built-in visual diagnostic and status monitoring system called LANVIEW. The LANVIEW LEDs (Figure 4-1) allow quick observation of the network status to aid in diagnosing network problems.
Using LANVIEW Figure 4-1 LANVIEW LEDs (both modules) Table 4-1 describes the LED indications and provides recommended actions as appropriate. NOTE: The terms flashing, blinking, and solid used in Flashing indicates an LED is flashing randomly. Blinking indicates an LED is flashing at a steady rate (approximately 50% on, 50% off). Solid indicates a steady LED light.

These switches are set at the factory and rarely need to be changed. Switch definitions and positions are as follows: • Switches 1 through 4 – For Enterasys Networks use only. • Switch 5 – If the boot up diagnostics have been disabled, changing the position of this switch will enable them.
Page 49
• Switch 6 – No function. • Switch 7 – Clear NVRAM. Changing the position of this switch resets NVRAM on the next power-up of the device. All user-entered parameters, such as the IP address, device names, etc., are reset to the factory default settings. Once the module resets, you can either use the factory default settings or reenter your own parameters.
