Page 29: Connect To Console Port
Hardware Installation Connect to Console Port The console port is used for setting up and managing the switch via a connection to a console terminal or PC using a terminal emulation program. You can connect the switch to a terminal or PC using the supplied console cable (RJ-45 male to RS-232 female cable) for serial communication. -
Page 30: Connect To Management Port
Hardware Installation Connect to Management Port The switch has one management port. The management port is a dedicated port interface which is segregated from data traffic crossing other downlink or uplink ports. The port supports auto- negotiation. If the attached device also supports auto-negation, the transmission can operate in either half or full duplex, and data rate can be in 10Mbps, 100Mbps, or 1000Mbps. Telnet, SNMP, and Web browser utility can all go through this port for local or remote management after the IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway are properly configured. -

Page 32: Initial Configuration Process
Initial Configuration The following pages in this section are showing the IP address configuration and firmware upgrade SOP of Quanta runtime image. Initial Configuration Process When using the switch for the first time, configuration must be carried out through a console. Perform the following steps to configure the switch: Connect a terminal to the console port. Manually configure the IP Address by CLI. Manage the switch. Configure the IP Address You can configure the switch with a static IP address or use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server to automatically obtain an IP address for the switch. For the first time configuration, it is recommended to set the IP address manually. 4.2.1 Set IP Address Manually To set the IP address of the switch manually, perform the following: Connect the switch to a computer with a terminal emulation program via the Console port. -
Page 33: Obtain Ip Address By Dhcp
Initial Configuration Set the service port IP address (in the example below, the service port IP address is set to 192.168.2.1). Configure Serviceport protocol none Serviceport ip 192.168.2.1 255.255.255.0 <gateway> exit Figure 4-2: Set Service Port IP Screen (Switch) (Switch) (Switch) (Switch) (Switch) -
Page 34: Manage The Switch
Initial Configuration Manage the Switch After the initial configuration, you may manage and monitor network activity by CLI or SNMP management, or by using the Web browser utility. 4.3.1 CLI Management The Command Line Interface (CLI) is administered when the terminal is directly connected to the Console port of the switch. This is an out-of-band connection, which means that it is on a different circuit than normal network communications, and thus works even when the network is down. -
Page 35: Upgrade The Firmware
Initial Configuration Upgrade the Firmware The switch firmware is continuously being upgraded to meet more networking demands. It is recommended to upgrade the firmware to ensure that your switch has the latest firmware for optimum performance. NOTE: Before upgrading process, please make sure your currently version on the switch. For example, the switch running with version 5.4.x.x only supported upgrade to v5.4.x.x. Please use correct firmware to upgrading. 4.4.1 Initialization Stage Connect the TFTP server to the switch via the management port. Set the service port IP address using the following commands: Connect the console cable to the console port. -
Page 36: Upgrade The Firmware Image File
Initial Configuration Prepare the TFTP server and save the latest image file (*.stk) in its root directory (assuming that the IP address is 192.168.2.100). Figure 4-4: Example of TFTP Server Screen 4.4.2 Upgrade the Firmware Image File The switch supports two images, active and backup. Input the following command to download the image to backup image: copy tftp://<server ip addr>/<file name>... -
Page 37: Manually Install Vendor Os
Initial Configuration Manually Install Vendor OS With QUANTA ONIE code, it allows user to manually download an installer. You can use the Download Installer function which supports 3 types of different protocols (i.e. FTP, TFTP, and HTTP) to download the installer file from your local server. To download and update the vendor OS code manually, perform the following: Locate the specific QUANTA ONIE installer image that you want to download. -
