  • Page 8: Preparing For Installation

    Preparing for installation The H3C S6890 Switch Series includes the following models: • S6890-54HF • S6890-30HF Safety recommendations To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury caused by incorrect use, read the following safety recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.
  • Page 9: Cleanliness

    • Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and cause problems including loose mounting screws and circuit failure. • High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the reliability and lifespan of the switch. For the temperature and humidity requirements for the switch, see "Technical specifications."...
  • Page 10: Laser Safety

    Laser safety WARNING! • The switch is a Class 1 laser device. • Do not stare into any disconnected fiber port or optical fiber. The laser light emitted from the fiber port or optical fiber might hurt your eyes. Installation tools No installation tools are provided with the switch.
  • Page 11: Installing The Switch

    CAUTION: Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mounting screw on the chassis cover intact, and if you want to open the chassis, contact H3C for permission. Otherwise, H3C shall not be liable for any consequence caused thereby. Figure 1 Hardware installation flow...

Then use screws to secure the mounting brackets to the rack.
  • Page 14: Mounting Brackets And Grounding Cable Installation Positions

    Mounting brackets and grounding cable installation positions The switch provides two mounting bracket installation positions on the side panels: one near the power module side and one near the port side, as shown in Figure 7. The switch has a primary grounding point (with a grounding sign) and an auxiliary grounding point. Figure Determine installation positions for the mounting brackets and grounding cable as required.

    Figure 10 Attaching the grounding cable to the primary grounding point on the switch (S6890-54HF) Attaching the slide rails to the rack The installation procedure is similar for short and long slide rails. The following procedure uses long slide rails as an example. To attach the slide rails to the rack: Identify the slide rail installation position in the rack.
  • Page 17: Mounting The Switch In The Rack

    Mounting the switch in the rack This task requires two people. To mount the switch in the rack: Wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded. Verify that the mounting brackets and chassis rails have been securely attached to the switch chassis.

    Figure 24 Connecting the DC power cord for the LSVM1DC650 power module (S6890-54HF) Verifying the installation After you complete the installation, verify that: • There is enough space for heat dissipation around the switch, and the rack is stable. • The grounding cable is securely connected.
  • Page 26: Accessing The Switch For The First Time

    Accessing the switch for the first time Setting up the configuration environment You can access the switch through the serial console port or the mini USB console port. As a best practice, use the serial console port to access the switch. To access the switch through the mini USB console port, you need to prepare a mini USB console cable yourself.

    Figure 29 Completing the device driver installation wizard Setting terminal parameters To configure and manage the switch through the console port, you must run a terminal emulator program, TeraTermPro or PuTTY, on your configuration terminal. You can use the emulator program to connect a network device, a Telnet site, or an SSH site.
  • Page 30 After the startup completes, you can access the CLI to configure the switch. For more information about the configuration commands and CLI, see H3C S6890 Switch Series Configuration Guides and H3C S6890 Switch Series Command References.
  • Page 31: Setting Up An Irf Fabric

    Setting up an IRF fabric You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize multiple S6890 switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. IRF fabric setup flowchart...
  • Page 32: Planning Irf Fabric Setup

    For more information about master election, see H3C S6890 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide. Prepare an IRF member ID assignment scheme. An IRF fabric uses member IDs to uniquely identify and manage its members, and you must assign each IRF member switch a unique member ID.
  • Page 33 You connect the IRF member switches through IRF ports, the logical interfaces for the connections between IRF member switches. Each IRF member switch has two IRF ports: IRF-port 1 and IRF-port 2. To use an IRF port, you must bind a minimum of one physical port to it. When connecting two neighboring IRF member switches, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1 on one switch to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other switch.
  • Page 34: Identifying Physical Irf Ports On The Member Switches

    You can set up IRF links between S6890 switches as follows: • Use a QSFP28 module and fiber or a QSFP28 copper cable to connect QSFP28 ports for a 100-GE IRF physical connection. • Use a QSFP+ module and fiber or a QSFP+ copper cable to connect QSFP28 ports for a 40-GE IRF physical connection.
  • Page 35: Configuring Basic Irf Settings

    IRF port binding before or after connecting IRF physical ports depending on the software release. • Execute the display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings. For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see H3C S6890 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide. Connecting the physical IRF ports CAUTION: Wear an ESD wrist strap when you install transceiver modules, fibers, and copper cables.
  • Page 36: Accessing The Irf Fabric To Verify The Configuration

    Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other. Use Telnet or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See H3C S6890 Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
  • Page 37: Maintenance And Troubleshooting

    The power module status LED on a power module is not steady green (active state) or flashing green (standby state) For more information about the LEDs on a power module, see H3C LSVM1AC650 & LSVM1DC650 Power Modules User Manual and H3C LSVM1AC300 & LSVM1DC300 Power Modules User Manual.
