  • Page 12: Attaching The Mounting Brackets, Chassis Rails, And Grounding Cable To The Chassis

    Attaching the mounting brackets, chassis rails, and grounding cable to the chassis As shown in Figure2-7, the switch provides two installation positions on the two sides for mounting brackets: one near the power supply side and one near the port side. A primary grounding point (with a grounding sign) and an auxiliary grounding point are available on the switch.
  • Page 13 If the grounding cable length or grounding lug type cannot meet your requirement, make an applicable grounding cable or contact H3C Support. The grounding screws provided with the switch are applicable to both the primary and auxiliary grounding points.
  • Page 14: Attaching Cage Nuts And Slide Rails To The Rack

    Unpack the grounding cable and grounding screws. Use the grounding screws to attach the single-hole grounding lug or two-hole grounding lug of the grounding cable to the grounding point and then fasten the screws, as shown in Figure2-10 and Figure2-11. As a best practice, use a torque of 30 kgf-cm (2.94 Nm) to fasten the grounding screws.

Pushes the switch slowly into the rack so that the slide rails slide into and reach out the chassis rails and the mounting brackets are flush against the rack posts. Another person uses screws (user-supplied) to attach the mounting brackets to the rack.
  • Page 17: Grounding The Switch

    Grounding the switch CAUTION: • Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection. • To guarantee the grounding effect, connect the switch to a grounding strip in the equipment room by using the grounding cable provided with the switch. The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND).
  • Page 18: Installing/Removing Fan Trays

    Select fan trays for the switch based on the airflow requirements. For the fan tray specifications, see H3C S9820-64H Switch Hardware Information and Specifications. The installation and removal procedures are the same for the fan trays. The following installation and removal procedures use the LSWM1BFANSC fan tray as an example.
  • Page 19: Installing A Fan Tray

    For more information about the command, see device management in fan prefer-direction H3C S9820-64H Switch Fundamentals Command Reference. The switch supports shipping with fan trays and power supplies installed. If your switch came with fan trays preinstalled, skip this section.

    PWR1 and PWR3 installed with filler panels. The switch supports 2+1 and 2+2 power supply redundancy. You can install two to four power supplies for the switch. For information about the power supplies available for the switch, see H3C S9820-64H Switch Hardware Information and Specifications.
  • Page 21: Installing A Power Supply

    Installing a power supply CAUTION: • Follow the forward inertia of the power supply when inserting it into the chassis, and make sure the power supply has firm contact with the connectors on the backplane. • To prevent damage to the connectors inside the switch chassis, insert the power supply gently. If you encounter a hard resistance while inserting the power supply, pull out the power supply and insert it again.
  • Page 22: Removing A Power Supply

    Figure2-22 Installing a power supply (LSVM1AC650) Removing a power supply CAUTION: The switch supports 2+1 or 2+2 power supply redundancy. When the switch is configured with four power supplies, removing one or two power supplies does not affect the operation of the switch. When the switch has only two power supplies installed, removing power supplies powers off the switch or causes power insufficiency.

    The signal pinout for the RJ-45 connector of a serial console cable varies by vendor. To avoid abnormal configuration terminal display, use a serial console cable provided by H3C. For more information, see Table3-2. To prepare a serial console cable yourself, make sure the signal pinout for the RJ-45 connector is the same as that shown in Table3-3.

  • Page 31: Setting Up An Irf Fabric

    Setting up an IRF fabric You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize multiple S9820-64H 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 S9820-64H Switch Virtual Technologies 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: Planning Irf Topology And Connections

    Planning IRF topology and connections You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology, or more reliably, ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology. Rather, the IRF fabric changes to a daisy chain topology without interrupting network services.
  • Page 34: Identifying Physical Irf Ports On The Member Switches

    QSFP+ transceiver module and fiber or a QSFP+ cable do not support IRF connections. Planning the cabling scheme You can use QSFP28 cables or QSFP28 transceiver modules and fibers to connect the S9820-64H switches for IRF connections. If the switches are all in one equipment room, choose QSFP28 cables for IRF connections. If the switches are far away from one another, choose QSFP28 transceiver modules and fibers for IRF connections.
  • Page 35 For more information about available cables, see H3C S9820-64H Switch Hardware Information and Specifications. The following subsections describe several IRF connection schemes by using the QSFP28 cables and QSFP28 transceiver modules and fibers. As a best practice, use the ring topology for IRF connections.
  • Page 36: Configuring Basic Irf Settings

    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 S9820-64H Switch Fundamentals Configuration Guide.) Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
  • Page 37 To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure at least 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 S9820-64H Switch Virtual Technologies Configuration Guide.

    Power supply failure Symptom The status LED on a power supply is not steady green (active state) or flashing green (standby state) For more information about the power supply LED, see H3C LSVM1AC650 & LSVM1DC650 Power Modules User Manual. Solution To resolve the issue: Verify that the power cord is connected correctly.
  • Page 39 Verify that the power system is operating correctly. Verify that the console cable is connected correctly. Verify that the console cable does not have any problems and the terminal settings are correct. If the issue persists, contact H3C Support. Garbled output Symptom The output of the configuration terminal is garbled.
