DFE-Platinum 7H4385-49 PoE This section provides an overview of the 7H4385‐49 (Figure the DFE module features and how to configure them, refer to the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Platinum Series Configuration Guide. The 7H4385‐49 has 48, 10BASE‐T/100BASE‐TX, PoE‐compliant ports that are accessed through the fixed front panel RJ45 connectors. There is also an slot for an optional network expansion module (NEM). The DFE module can be installed in a Matrix E7, Matrix N1, Matrix N3, Matrix N5, or Matrix N7 chassis. The 7H4385‐49 DFE‐Platinum module also supports bridging between the Frame Transfer Matrix FTM1 and FTM2 backplanes in a Matrix E7 chassis. When mixing 6x1xxx, 6x2xxx, 6x3xxx, and 7H43xx‐xx series modules in a Matrix E7 chassis, certain hardware installation configuration rules must be followed to ensure proper operation. These rules are covered in “Module Placement and Installation Rules” on page 3‐4. Each of the fixed front panel ports can operate in either half‐duplex or full‐duplex mode of operation. The duplex mode can be determined by either auto‐negotiation or manual configuration. The DFE module ports can be configured to provide a high level of security, control traffic by limiting the rate of traffic accepted into the module and prioritizing traffic to expedite the flow of higher priority traffic through the module. For a complete list of capabilities, refer to the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Platinum Series Configuration Guide. The DFE module receives power and backplane connectivity when it is inserted into the Matrix E7, Matrix N7, Matrix N5, Matrix N3, or Matrix N1 chassis. The power to support the DFE module connections to 802.3af PoE‐compliant 48 Vdc PDs (powered devices) can be from the backplane of a Matrix N5 chassis or from an optional external Matrix N‐POE ...

Note: The 7H4385-49 does not support both the FTM bridge function and an optional network expansion module at the same time. With a NEM function is disabled. All ports remain active in either case. The fixed front panel ports can also support connections to PoE‐compliant PDs when the module is connected to an external N‐PoE Power system. Management Management of the module can be either in‐band or out‐of‐band. In‐band remote management is possible using Telnet, Enterasys Networks’ NetSight application, or WebView™ application. Out‐of‐band management is provided through the RJ45 COM (Communication) port on the front panel using a VT100 terminal or a VT100 terminal emulator. Switch Configuration Using WebView Enterasys Networks’ HTTP‐based Web management application (WebView) is an intuitive web tool for simple management tasks.
Secure Networks Policy Support Secure Networks Policy Support Policy Enabled Networking manages the allocation of networking infrastructure resources in a secure and effective manner. Using Secure Networks Policy, an IT Administrator can predictably assign appropriate resources to the Users, Applications, and Services that use the network; while blocking or containing access for inappropriate or potentially dangerous network traffic. Using this technology it is possible, for the first time, to align IT services with the needs of specific users and applications, and to leverage the network as a key component of the organization’s security strategy. The Secure Networks Policy Architecture consists of 3 components: Classification Rules, Network Services, and Behavioral Profiles. These are defined as follows: • Classification Rules determine how specific traffic flows (identified by Layer 2, Layer 3, and Layer 4 information in the data packet) are treated by each Switch or Router. In general, Classification Rules are applied to the networking infrastructure at the network edge/ingress point. • Network Services are logical groups of Classification Rules that identify specific networked applications or services. Users may be permitted or denied access to these services based on their role within the organization. Priority and bandwidth rate limiting may also be controlled using Network Services. • Behavioral Profiles (or roles) are used to assign Network Services to groups of users who share common needs–for example Executive Managers, Human Resources Personnel, or Guest Users. Access, resources, and security restrictions are applied as appropriate to each Behavioral Profile. A variety of authentication methods including 802.1X, EAP‐TLS, EAP‐TTLS, and PEAP may be used to classify and authorize each individual user; and the IT Administrator may also define a Behavioral Profile to apply in the absence of an authentication framework. LANVIEW Diagnostic LEDs LANVIEW diagnostic LEDs serve as an important troubleshooting aid by providing an easy way to observe the status of individual ports and overall network operations.
10BASE-T Network 100BASE-TX Network The network installation must meet the requirements to ensure satisfactory performance of this equipment. Failure to do so will produce poor network performance. The Enterasys Matrix DFE-Platinum Series Configuration Guide and the Cabling Guide referred to in the following sections can be found on the Enterasys Networks World Wide Web site: Refer to Link Aggregation Link Aggregation is a method of grouping multiple physical ports on a network device into one logical link according to the IEEE 802.3ad‐2002 standard. Because Link ...
Module Placement in a Matrix E7 Chassis In normal usage (and typical implementations) there is no need to enable/disable ports for Link Aggregation. The default values will result in the maximum number of aggregations possible. If the switch is placed in a configuration with its peers not running the protocol, no aggregations will be formed and the DFE modules will function normally (that is, Spanning Tree will block redundant paths). For details about the commands involved with configuring the Link Aggregation function, refer to the Enterasys Matrix DFE‐Platinum Series Configuration Guide. Module Placement in a Matrix E7 Chassis If you want to mix 6x1xxx, 6x2xxx, 6x3xxx, and 7H43xx‐xx series modules in the same Matrix E7 chassis, and successfully bridge data traffic to some or all modules in the chassis, it is necessary to have a bridging module (such as the 7H4385‐49) installed, and to follow the module placement rules described in “Module Placement and Installation Rules” on page 3‐4. FTM Bridge Function and Optional Interface Module The 7H4385‐49 DFE‐Platinum module does not support both the FTM bridging function and an optional NEM at the same time. With an optional NEM installed, the FTM bridging function is disabled. In either of these cases, all ports of the 7H4385‐49 remain active. 10BASE-T Network When connecting a 10BASE‐T segment to any of the RJ45 fixed front‐panel ports of the ...
100BASE-TX Network The fixed front panel ports of the 7H4385‐49 provide a connection that supports Category 5 UTP cabling. The device at the other end of the twisted pair segment must meet IEEE 802.3‐2002 100BASE‐TX Fast Ethernet network requirements for the devices to operate at 100 Mbps. The fixed front‐panel ports also support the 802.3af‐2003 standard for Power over Ethernet (PoE) power sourcing applications over existing cabling. For more information about PoE, refer to Appendix Note: The fixed ports of the module support Category 5 UTP cabling with an impedance between 85 and 111 ohms for 100 Mbps operation. The module is capable of operating at either 10 or 100 Mbps. The module automatically senses the speed of the other device and adjusts its speed accordingly.
Electrical Hazard: Only qualified personnel should perform installation procedures. Riesgo Electrico: Solamente personal calificado debe realizar procedimientos de instalacion. Elektrischer Gefahrenhinweis: Installationen sollten nur durch ausgebildetes und qualifiziertes Personal vorgenommen werden.

Installing Optional Network Expansion Module (NEM) Note: Install any optional equipment before proceeding to Installation modules in a Matrix E7 chassis. Refer to your release notes or the Enterasys Networks web site for the latest available network expansion module. A Phillips screwdriver is required to install an optional network expansion module into the 7H4385‐49. Installing a NEM involves • removing the safety cover • removing the coverplate from the DFE module (7H4385‐49), • attaching the network expansion module, and • replacing the safety cover. Refer to the installation instuctions shipped with the NEM for details. Backplane Connections and Installation Rules Note: A lowercase x indicates the general use of an alphanumeric character (for example, 6x1xx, the x’s indicate a combination of numbers or letters).
Backplane Connections and Installation Rules These DFE modules have connections to both FTM1 and FTM2 backplanes, enabling them to route frames between the two backplanes and all modules in the 6C107 chassis. However, the older first (6x1xx), second (6x2xx), and third (6x3xx) generation modules are still managed using their own Local Management and are not subject to management by the DFE module management entity. The Matrix N1 (7C111), Matrix N3 (7C103) and Matrix N7 (7C107) chassis have only FTM2 connections and support only DFE modules. The Matrix N5 (7C105‐P) has FTM2 connections and also supports PoE‐compliant DFE modules. Module Placement and Installation Rules The DFE‐Platinum modules can be installed in a Matrix Module Placement,” below, for placement rules), Matrix N1, Matrix N3, Matrix N5, or Matrix N7 chassis.

Example 2 (Figure 3-1, Shows the chassis fully populated with third generation modules (6x3xx). These modules can also be installed in any available chassis slot in the Matrix E7 chassis, but operate as individual modules with separate IP addresses. Each module is configured using Local Management. Rule: The 6x3xx modules can be installed in any available chassis slot in the Matrix E7 chassis. Example 3 (Figure 3-1, C) Shows chassis slots 1 through 5 populated with first and second generation modules (6x1xx and 6x2xx). If a 6x1xx or 6x2xx series module is installed in slot 6 or 7, it will operate in standalone mode (no backplane connectivity). Like the 6x3xx modules, the 6x1xx and 6x2xx modules operate as individual modules with separate IP addresses, and each one is configured using Local Management. Rule: The 6x1xx and 6x2xx modules can communicate with each other when they are installed in chassis slots 1 through 5 in the Matrix E7 chassis. If installed in slot 6 or 7, they operate in standalone mode. Example 4 (Figure 3-1, Shows chassis slots 1 through 5 populated with a mix of 6x1xx, 6x2xx, and 6x3xx modules and only third generation modules in slots 6 and 7. In this module arrangement, the 6x3xx module provides a proxy bridge, which enables the 6x1xx and 6x2xx modules to communicate with 6x3xx modules in slot 6 or 7. If more than one 6x3xx module is installed in slots 1 to 5, the module in the lowest numbered slot performs the proxy function for slots 6 and 7. Therefore, if a 6x3xx module is already performing the proxy function, and another 6x3xx module is inserted into a lower numbered slot, connectivity will be temporarily interrupted, as the new board takes over the proxy function. When a 6x3xx module in a lower numbered slot is removed, and there is a 6x3xx module in a higher numbered slot, communication is not interrupted. For Local Management, plugging the Local Management connection into the 6x3xx ...
Page 36
Backplane Connections and Installation Rules Example 5 (Figure Shows chassis slots 1 and 5 populated with 6x2xx and 6x1xx modules, respectively; slots 2 through 4 with DFE modules without a bridging module; and slots 6 and 7 with 6x3xx modules. In this module arrangement, the 6x2xx and 6x1xx modules in slots 1 and 5 can only communicate with each other, because there is no 6x3xx module in one of the first five slots to serve as the proxy bridge to communicate with the 6x3xx modules in slots 6 and 7. The 7x4xxx DFE modules in slots 2, 3, and 4 will operate under one IP address. Since there is no DFE bridging module, the DFE modules will not communicate with any other modules in the chassis. Rule: In this example, there must be at least one 6x3xx series module, and a bridging module in any of the slots 1 through 5 to enable communications between all generations of modules in the chassis. Example 6 (Figure The module arrangement in this example is similar to the one shown in Figure described in Example 5. The only difference is that one of the bridging modules (7H4382‐25, 7H4382‐49, 7H4383‐49, or 7H4385‐49) is installed in slot 2, enabling all modules to communicate with each other. The 7H4382‐49 is used in this example. Rule: In this example, the bridging module serves as both the FTM1‐to‐FTM2 bridge and the five‐to‐seven slot proxy bridge. The 6x3xx does not serve as a proxy bridge in this configuration because the bridging module is in a slot with a lower number. 3-6 Installation 3-1, E) 3-1, F) 3‐1, E...
Preparing to Install into a Matrix E7, N1, N3, N5, or N7 Chassis Caution: Failure to observe static safety precautions could cause damage to the module.

This appendix provides an overview of Power over Ethernet Technology and how it is implemented in relation to the 7H4385‐49. Overview Power over Ethernet (PoE) refers to the ability to provide operational power through the same Ethernet cabling to a PD (powered device) connected to a data network. Modern Ethernet implementations employ differential signals over twisted pair cables. This requires a minimum of two twisted pairs for a single physical link. Both ends of the cable are isolated with transformers blocking any DC or common mode voltage on the signal pair. PoE exploits this fact by using two twisted pairs as the two conductors to supply a direct current. One pair carries the power supply current and the other pair provides a path for the return current. While several proprietary legacy implementations of PoE have been deployed by LAN equipment vendors, in 2003 the IEEE published the IEEE 802.3af‐2003 specification, which is part of the 802.3 suite of standards. The 7H4385‐49 is fully compliant with the IEEE 802.3af standard. It supports the standard resistor based detection method, as well as AC disconnect capability. The 7H4385‐49 is also capable of supplying the maximum specified current to all ports simultaneously. Each PD has a PDC (Powered Device Classification) that is transmitted to the DFE module for power management purposes. Table power ranges. Table C-1 Powered Device Classifications Class About PoE (Power over Ethernet) C‐1 lists the classifications and the associated Usage Default Optional Optional Optional Not Allowed PD Maximum Power Range Usage 0.44 to 12.95 Watts 0.44 to 3.84 Watts 3.84 to 6.49 Watts...
Warning: The DFE module is shipped with a cover over its 48 Vdc Optional Power Input connector. Do not remove this cover when the DFE module is installed in an N5 chassis. This cover is removed only when you connect a 48 Vdc power cable from the Enterasys N-POE Power System.
PoE Port Status LEDs The PoE port status of each 10/100 Mbps front‐panel port is indicated by the two‐color RX and TX LED display for each port. To observe the PoE port status indications, you must switch the DFE module management system from the default RX/ TX Status Mode to the PoE Port Status Mode using the DFE module front‐panel GROUP SELECT switch. The switch operation and a description of how to use the LED indications are described in “Using LANVIEW” on page 4‐1. Table C‐2 provides a brief description of each port status RX/TX LED display.
