Installing the

System

To install the SuperStack II Switch 3900 or Switch 9300 system in your

network, follow the steps in this section.

Audience This guide is intended only for trained technical personnel. Do not

attempt to install or service a SuperStack II Switch 3900 or Switch 9300 if

you do not have the proper training. For training information, call

1-800-NET-3COM in the United States and Canada. For training

information elsewhere, visit the 3Com website at www.3com.com.

WARNING: For your safety and to ensure adequate cooling airflow, keep

blank faceplates over any empty slots on the Switch 3900.

Install the SuperStack II Switch 3900 or Switch 9300 system in an area

that meets the requirements in Table 1.

For more information on site requirements, see Appendix B in the Getting

Started Guide for your system.

Check the packing slip to verify that you have all of the components that

you ordered.

The system is shipped with one internal power supply. If you have ordered

a redundant power supply or uninterruptible power supply for the

system, have it available for installation.

Quick Installation Guide 3

Before You Begin

Before you install the system:

■Move the system close to where you plan to install it.

■Have a Number 1 Phillips screwdriver available.

■Have the hardware kit that comes with the system available. See

Ta b l e 2 .

Determine whether you are installing the system on a tabletop or in a

distribution rack.

For complete installation instructions, see Chapter 2 in the Getting

Started Guide for your system.

WARNING: Hazardous energy exists within the SuperStack II

Switch 3900 and Switch 9300 systems. Follow instructions in the Getting

Started Guide to avoid electric shock or equipment damage. Many

installation and troubleshooting procedures should be performed only by

trained technical personnel.

The system operates using a single power supply assembly and is shipped

with one internal power supply.

■You can connect an uninterruptible power supply (UPS).

■You can also connect a redundant power supply (RPS).

These additional power supplies are orderable and shipped separately.

Contact your network supplier.

For instructions on how to install the RPS, see the Advanced RPS

Power Module Type 2 User Guide.

4Quick Installation Guide

If you have ordered one or two additional Gigabit Ethernet modules for

your SuperStack II Switch 3900 system, you are now ready to install the

modules.

CAUTION: Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage components on a

module, causing complete or intermittent failures. ESD damage occurs

when the module is improperly handled. When handling modules, be

sure to read and follow the ESD safety information provided in the

Module Installation Guide.

For installation instructions, see the 1000BASE-SX/1000BASE-LX Gigabit

Ethernet Module Installation Guide that is shipped with the module.

Cable your system for connecting these elements to your network:

■10/100BASE-T connectors (3900 only)

■1000BASE-SX or LX connectors (3900 and 9300)

■10BASE-T out-of-band port connector (9300 only)

■Console port (3900 and 9300)

For information on cabling ports, see Chapter 3 in the Getting Started

Guide for your system.

Place the system near an easily accessible power outlet because the only

way that you can power the system up or down is to insert or remove the

power cord from the power source. To get your system powered up and

ready to operate:

1For the Switch 3900, verify that each unused slot is covered with a blank

faceplate.

To view possible error messages in the Administration Console while the

system is running power-up diagnostics, connect a terminal, workstation,

or PC with terminal emulation software to the system’s Console port.

2On the back panel of either the Switch 3900 or the Switch 9300, plug the

power cord into the power receptacle.

CAUTION: To prevent a possible fire hazard, be sure to fully insert the

power cord.

3Plug the other end of the power cord into a power outlet.

LEDs and Power-up Diagnostics

Your system runs diagnostic software at power up. This software verifies

that every component in the system is operating correctly. If any

component fails during power-up diagnostics, the system either fails to

power up or, for the Switch 3900, it prevents faulty modules from coming

online.

For diagnostic messages, view the system display in the Administration

Console (if you have connected the system to a workstation).

For the Switch 3900, when the system comes up, verify which modules, if

any, have failed diagnostics by checking the module LEDs.

The system and port LEDs are described in Table 3.

6Quick Installation Guide

Your system is shipped from the factory with IEEE 802.1D bridging set to

disabled. To configure system features for your particular networking

environment, you must first establish management access.

Initially, you can only manage your system locally through a direct

terminal connection to the Console port. You use this interface to

configure additional access mechanisms, as shown in Table 4.

For more information on access mechanisms, see Chapter 6 in the

Getting Started Guide for your system or Chapter 2 in the

Implementation Guide.

Defining an Interface

Once you have configured initial access, you can manage your system in

one of these ways:

■In-band — Manages the system and its attached LANs over the same

network that carries your regular data traffic. You configure an IP

address on any Ethernet port.

■Out-of-band (9300) —Uses a dedicated network for management

data. You configure a system management interface for the Ethernet

10BASE-T out-of-band port and assign it an IP address.

Quick Installation Guide 7

■Modem — Uses a modem to establish a connection between your

current Administration Console session and the Console port. When

you have configured the modem from the Administration Console

menu system, the Console appears to be directly connected to the

external modem.

These management access mechanisms are described briefly next and

more completely in the SuperStack II Switch 3900 and Switch 9300

Implementation Guide.

In-band Management (Switch 3900 and 9300). To manage your

network in band:

1From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:

ip interface define

2Enter the IP address of the interface.

3Enter the subnet mask. Press Return or Enter to accept the default or

current value.

4Enter the index number of the VLAN that you want to associate with the

IP address.

For more information about configuring VLANs, see the SuperStack II

Switch 3900 and Switch 9300 Implementation Guide.

Out-of-band Management (Switch 9300 only). To manage your

network out of band:

1From the top level of the Administration Console, enter:

ip interface define

2Enter the IP address for the out-of-band port.

3Enter the subnet mask. Press Return or Enter to accept the default or

current value.

4Enter system as the interface type.

8Quick Installation Guide

This section explains how to identify and correct system problems and

suggests some things that you can do if you cannot resolve a problem.

Symptom Possible Sources of Problem and Steps to Take
