Powering Up
You can install an AC power supply into either power supply slot in
the switch.
The airflow direction of the power supply in PS1 determines the
primary airflow direction for the switch. If PS1 is not present, PS2
determines the airflow direction. If any power supply location is
unpopulated, a PSU Filler Panel must be installed.
1. Insert the first power supply into the rear PS1 power supply slot. If a
blanking plate covers the required power supply slot, remove the
plate before inserting the power supply. A small angle on the top
corner of the power supply ensures that the power supply can only
be installed in one orientation in the switch.
2. Verify that the power supply is fully seated in the slot and securely
clipped in place.
3. Optional: Install the second power supply into the rear PS2 power
supply slot. The airflow direction must match the primary Power
Supply. The switch ships with a filler panel in PS2 position. Leave
the filler panel in place if you do not install a second power supply.

Warning: You must use a power cord set approved for the ERS 5900
Series switch and the power receptacle type in your country. Ensure
you have properly grounded the switch before powering up the unit.
The switch will power on immediately when it is connected to a
suitable AC power source. The switch does not have a power switch.
Check the front-panel LEDs as the device powers on to be sure the
PWR LED is lit. If not, check if the power cord is correctly
connected.
Check LED status of the fans and power supplies. Status LEDs are on
the left front side of the switch. For more information on all status
LEDs, see Installing ERS 5900 Series.

Install SFP and SFP+ transceivers
Before installing, ensure the switch is up and running, and operating
normally. Verify that the SFP or SFP+ transceivers and network cabling
support your network configuration. Note: The ERS 5900 supports
Hot-Swapping of SFP and SFP+ transceivers and direct attach cables.
1. If you are installing SFP direct attach cables, remove packaging, insert
the transceiver connector into a switch port and insert the opposite end
into the SFP port of the corresponding network device.
OR
If you are installing SFP or SFP+ optical transceivers, remove packaging
and insert the pluggable transceiver connector into a switch port.
2. Remove the network interface cover from the transceiver connector
(if applicable) and insert an appropriate network interface cable into
the transceiver.
3. Connect the opposite end of the network interface cable to your network.
4. In both cases, ensure that the device clicks and locks into place.

Connect the console cable to the ERS 5900
The console port is the RJ-45 port shown with a blue border outline on
the front of your ERS 5900 Series switch (note orientation). Use the
console cable (AL2011022-E6) to connect the switch console port to
your management terminal. The maximum length of a console cable is
25 feet (8.3 meters). The following table describes the RJ-45 console
port pin-out information. You can use the pin-out information to verify
or create a console cable for use with your maintenance terminal.
Connector
Pin Number

1
RTS (ready to send) — optional
2
DTR (data terminal ready) — optional
3
TXD (transmit data) — mandatory
4
GND (ground) — mandatory
5
DCD (carrier detect) — optional
6
RXD (receive data) — mandatory
7
DSR (data set ready) — optional
8
CTS (clear to send) — optional
1. Connect the console cable from the terminal to the console port of the
switch to allow initial configuration. Any terminal or PC with the
appropriate terminal emulator can be used as the management station.
2. Set the terminal protocol on the terminal or terminal emulation
program to VT100 or VT100/ANSI.
3. Connect to the switch using the terminal or terminal emulation
application.
4. The switch banner appears when you connect to the switch through
the Console port. There is no default password for the switch for CLI
console access. Enter Ctrl+Y and type the following CLI commands:
enable
install
Note: Extreme Networks provides two console cable options to
connect the ERS 5900's DB9 (m) to a standard Pc/Laptop DB9 (m).
1. A 1.5 m integrated RJ45/DB9 (f) Console Cable (AL2011022-E6) in
conjunction with a DB9(f)/RJ45 Adapter (AL2011020-E6)
OR
2. Two DB9(f)/RJ45 Adapter (AL2011020-E6) connected together
using a standard Cat5e Ethernet Cable (purchased separately)

The CLI Quickstart welcome screen helps you enter the
information requested at each prompt.
Note: The ERS 5900 uses the default IP address of 192.168.1.1/24 if the
switch does not get its IP address from another source.
Note: the default IP address is not applicable to the out-of-band
management port.
