Page 9: S25P System Overview
Chapter 1 S25P System Overview The Force10 Networks S25P (Cat# S25-01-GE-24P) is a high performance, low cost, stackable, Layer 2 switch/Layer 3 router that supports 24 SFP (small form-factor pluggable) ports, four built-in 10/100/1000 Base-T ports, and up to four 10-Gigabit (10GbE) ports (XFP or CX4), in two expansion slots. As highlighted in Figure 1, the front panel of the S25P contains a status panel that displays activity of the XFP... -
Page 10: Equipment
Equipment The following items are necessary to install the S25P system: • The switch • At least one grounded AC power source per S25P • One AC cable is included to connect the AC power source to the S25P (power cables are not supplied for the S25P-DC) •... -
Page 11: System Status
System Status S25P status can be derived in several ways, including physical LED displays and boot menu options, both discussed here, along with CLI commands,and SNMP traps. For details on those options, see the show Command Reference and Configuration Guide for your software (FTOS or SFTOS). LED Displays As shown in Figure... - Page 12 The following table describes the LED status indicators on the left side of the front panel.

Page 13: Site Preparation
Chapter 2 Site Preparation This chapter describes requirements and procedures to install your S25P system, in the following topics: • Site Selection • Cabinet Placement on page 14 • Rack Mounting on page 14 • Fans and Airflow on page 14 •... -
Page 14: Cabinet Placement
Cabinet Placement The cabinet must meet the following criteria: • Minimum cabinet size and airflow are according to the EIA standard. • Minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) between the side intake and exhaust vents and the cabinet wall. Rack Mounting When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is earth ground. -
Page 15: Power
Power The S25P comes standard with two AC power supplies acting in load-sharing mode; see Figure 2 on page 9. Use the power cords shipped with the S25P to connect it to AC power outlets, ideally on separate circuits. Several versions of the power cord are available, based on country requirements. The power supply cord is used as the main disconnect device;... -
Page 16: Tools Required
Tools Required S-Series switches are shipped fully assembled, encased in foam. A utility knife is useful for cutting the packing tape, and a Philips #2 screwdriver is required for attaching rack screws, and is also used for making some attachments, including DC cables and rear cover plates. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur when components are mishandled. -
Page 17: Installing The S25P
Chapter 3 Installing the S25P To install the S25P system, Force10 Networks recommends that you complete the installation procedures in the order presented in this chapter: • Inserting Optional Modules (10-Gigabit or Stacking) • Installing the Switch on a Tabletop on page 19 •... - Page 18 To install a module, follow the steps below: Step Task If the switch is on, save the running configuration, if desired (and different from the startup configuration) with the command write memory. Then power down the system by unplugging it from its power source. Removing a module from a running system will lock up the switch, requiring a power Caution: cycle.

Page 19: Installing The Switch On A Tabletop
Installing the Switch on a Tabletop The S25P can be positioned on a stable tabletop. Four rubber standoffs are provided for that purpose in the plastic bag in the switch shipping box. Keep the following in mind when using a tabletop for your S25P: •... -
Page 20: Four-Post Rack-Mounting With Threaded Rails
Four-Post Rack-mounting with Threaded Rails Ensure that there is adequate clearance surrounding the cabinet or rack to permit access and airflow. If you are installing two S25P switches side-by-side, position the two S25P chassis at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart to permit proper airflow. - Page 21 Step Task Set the adjustable rear mounting bracket to the length (one of three lengths) for your bracket. Secure the length with the four screws. Figure 9 Four-post Rack-mounting with Threaded Rails . Installing the S25P System...

Four-Post Rack-mounting with Cage Nuts Ensure that there is adequate clearance surrounding the cabinet or rack to permit access and airflow. If you are installing two S25P systems side-by-side, position them at least 5 inches (12.7 cm) apart. Follow the steps below to install the S25P chassis into a four-post rack mounting with cage nuts. - Page 23 Step Task Position the cage nuts over the holes on each bracket flange and each rack post. Figure 12 Four-Post Rack-mounting with Cage Nuts Align the rack filler panel to the rear bracket and rack posts. Secure by inserting two screws into the hole in the filler panel through to the holes in the rack post.

Page 24: Stacking
Stacking You can add units to a stack, remove them, renumber them, or move them in the stack. The units can continue running in the stack as you add new units, but new units should be powered down during the connection. -
Page 25: Using Ftos Stacking Commands
Using FTOS Stacking Commands While the S-Series hardware has built-in stacking controls, you can use FTOS to manage stacking, such as assign unit IDs, influence the management unit (master unit) selection algorithm, pre-configure a unit to be added to a stack, etc. The following commands provide a sample of that functionality: •... -
Page 26: Connecting Two Switches
While the diagram, above, shows A-B port connections, the ports are bi-directional, so you can connect A to A and/or B to B, as shown below in examples of two-switch (Figure 16 on page 26) and three-switch (Figure 17 on page 27) ring topologies. -
Page 27: Supplying Power
Connecting Three Switches Force10 recommends the ring topology, as outlined above (Figure 14 on page 25), for stacking S-Series switches, providing redundant connectivity. Using the example of three switches in the stack (Figure 16): Starting with the switch at the bottom of the stack, insert one end of the first cable into Stack Port A. Insert the other end of the first cable into Stack Port A of the middle switch. -
Page 28: S25P-Dc
Connect the supplied AC power cord first to either receptacle of the S25P (on the right as you face the rear of the chassis) and then to the power source (see Power Requirements on page 34). Ensure that the cord is secure. -

Page 30: Installing Optics
Step Task (Continued) If necessary, connect the RJ-45/DB-9 adapter that is shipped with the S25P system to the end of the RJ-45 cable that will connect to your terminal. Verify your terminal default settings match the default settings, as listed above, on the console port: If you use the console port to download software to the switch, you will probably want to raise the console baud rate. -
Page 31: Installing Sfps
Installing SFPs Note: Starting with FTOS 7.8.1.0, when a copper SFP2 module with catalog number GP-SFP2-1T is used in the S25P switch, the SFP speed can be manually set with the speed command. When the speed is set to 10 or 100 Mbps, the duplex command can also be executed. -
Page 32: Installing Xfps
Installing XFPs To install an XFP into one of the two ports in the optional 10GbE optical module (see Inserting Optional Modules (10-Gigabit or Stacking) on page 17) on the back of the switch, follow the procedure below: Warning: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage can occur if components are mishandled. Always wear an ESD-preventive wrist or heel ground strap when handling the S25P and its components. -
