• The rack is sturdy enough to support the switch and its accessories. • The rack or workbench is reliably grounded. To ensure correct operation and long service life of your switch, install it in an environment that meets the requirements described in the following subsections. Temperature/humidity Maintain temperature and humidity in the equipment room at acceptable ranges.
Table1-2 Corrosive gas concentration limits in the equipment room Average concentration (mg/m Maximum concentration (mg/m 0.01 0.03 0.05 CAUTION: As a best practice, control the corrosive gas concentrations in the equipment room at their average values. Make sure the corrosive gas concentrations do not exceed 30 minutes per day at their maximum values.
• Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary. • To prevent signal ports from getting damaged by overvoltage or overcurrent caused by lightning strikes, route interface cables only indoors. Laser safety WARNING! The switch is a class 1 laser device. Disconnected optical fibers or transceiver modules might emit invisible laser light.
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.

Accessing the switch for the first time Connecting the switch to a configuration terminal You can connect the switch to a configuration terminal by using the serial console port or the micro USB console port. Only the micro USB console port takes effect if you connect both the serial console port and micro USB console port.
Connecting a DB9-to-RJ45 console cable CAUTION: Follow these guidelines when you connect a DB9-to-RJ45 console cable: • Identify the mark on the serial console port and make sure you are connecting to the correct port. • The serial ports on PCs do not support hot swapping. To connect a PC to an operating switch, first connect the PC end.
Connecting a USB-to-RJ45 console cable IMPORTANT: • To use a USB-to-RJ45 console cable to connect the switch to a configuration terminal, first download and install the USB-to-RJ45 console driver on the configuration terminal and then connect the USB-to-RJ45 console cable to the configuration terminal. •...

Connect the RJ-45 connector of the cable to the console port of the switch. Connecting a micro USB console cable A micro USB console cable has a micro USB connector at one end to connect to the micro USB console port of the switch, and a standard USB connector at the other end to connect to the USB port on the configuration terminal.
Figure3-9 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, such as TeraTermPro, on your configuration terminal. You can use the emulator program to connect a network device, a Telnet site, or an SSH site.
Power on the switch During the startup process, you can access Boot ROM menus to perform tasks such as software upgrade and file management. The Boot ROM interface and menu options differ with software versions. For more information about Boot ROM menu options, see the software-matching release notes for the device.
Setting up an IRF fabric You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize S6520X-SI switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. An S6520X-SI switch can set up an IRF fabric only with switches from the same switch series. IRF fabric setup flowchart Figure4-1 IRF fabric setup flowchart Start...
Step Description Plan the installation site and IRF fabric setup parameters: • Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site • Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs Plan IRF fabric setup • Planning IRF topology and connections •...
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. Planning IRF topology and connections You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology or more reliable ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology.
Figure4-3 IRF fabric in ring topology IRF-port1 IRF-port2 IRF-port2 IRF-port1 IRF-port1 IRF-port2 Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches Identify the physical IRF ports on the member switches according to your topology and connection scheme.

For a short-distance IRF connection in an equipment room, use a twisted-pair cable, SFP+ cable, SFP28 cable, or QSFP+ cable. For a long-distance IRF connection, use SFP+/SFP28/QSFP+ transceiver modules and optical fibers. The following subsections describe several H3C recommended IRF connection schemes by using SFP+ cables and SFP+ transceiver modules and fibers.

Configuring basic IRF settings After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member switch (see H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series Fundamentals Configuration Guide) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings. Follow these guidelines when you configure the switches: •...

NOTE: To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure a minimum of one multi-active detection (MAD) mechanism to detect the presence of multiple identical IRF fabrics and handle collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide or H3C S6520X-SI Switch Series Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide, depending on the software version.

Maintenance and troubleshooting Built-in power supply failure The S6520X-10XT-SI and S6520X-16XT-SI switches use a built-in power supply and support only AC power input. Symptom The system status LED (SYS) of the switch is off. Solution To resolve the issue: Verify that the AC power cord is connected to the switch correctly, and the AC-input power receptacle on the switch and the AC power outlet are in good condition.

10G/5G/2.5G/1000BASE-T MODE LED status Description autosensing Ethernet port LED status mode) the IRF member IDs of the switch. For example, if the LEDs for ports 1 to 5 are steady green and the other port LEDs are off, the IRF member ID of the switch is 5. 10G/5G/2.5G/1000/100BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port The S6520X-26XC-UPWR-SI and S6520X-54XC-UPWR-SI switches provide a status LED for each 10G/5G/2.5G/1000/100BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port to indicate their operating status.
Table4-28 SFP+ port LED description SFP+ port MODE LED status Description LED status Steady green A link is present on the port and the port is operating at 10 Gbps. Flashing green The port is sending or receiving data at 10 Gbps. Steady yellow A link is present on the port and the port is operating at 1 Gbps.
Appendix D Cooling system To dissipate heat timely and enhance system stability, the switch uses a high-performance cooling system. Consider the site ventilation design when you plan the installation site for the switch. • S6520X-26MC-SI and S6520X-26MC-UPWR-SI switches—The fan tray draws ambient air into the chassis from the left side and blows out air from the right side.
