Step 1Rack Mount iBypass 40G Switch

Install the iBypass 40G Switch into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. The switch is designed to occupy one rack unit. Do the following to install the iBypass 40G Switch into an equipment rack:

1. Remove the Ear Extenders and screws from the shipping bag.

2. Attach the Long Ear Extender to the switch if you are only mounting one switch or attach the Short Ear Extender between two switches if you are mounting two switches. See Figure 3.

3. Slide the switches in place in the rack.

4. Fasten the switches in place at the front panel ears using the Phillips screws.

5. Make sure the rack is properly electrically grounded.

Grounding

Ground the chassis to the rack by connecting a 14 AWG minimum ground wire with a #8 ring lug to the ground connection on the rear of the chassis. Terminate the other end of the ground wire to the rack ground bus bar.

Step 2Connect Power

Ensure the iBypass 40G Switch is grounded before connecting power. Do the following to connect and apply power to the iBypass 40G Switch:

1. Plug one of the supplied power cords to a power connector located at the rear of the chassis. Plug the other end to a power source. See Figure 4.

2. For redundancy, plug the other power cord to the iBypass 40G. Plug the other end to a source independent from the first power source.

The Power LEDs on the front illuminate.

Switch Default Settings

The iBypass 40G Switch ships with the following default system settings:

Management Port IP: 10.60.4.180 Threshold Ports A & 1: 80%

Management Port Netmask: 255.0.0.0 Threshold Port B & 2: 80%

Management Port Gateway: 10.0.0.1 Username: admin

Port Speed (A, B, 1, and 2): 40G Password: netoptics

Step 3Connect Options

You have two ways of logging in to the iBypass 40G switch.

Option 1 - Connect PC to Management Port

1. Connect a PC whose IP address is on the same subnet as the iBypass switch. The default address on the switch is:

IP Address: 10.60.4.180 Mask - 255.0.0.0 Gateway - 10.0.0.1

2. Connect a Cat 5e cable from your PC’s Ethernet port to the iBypass Management port. See Figure 5.

3. Open a terminal window and ping 10.60.4.180 to confirm the connection.

4. After you have confirmed that you have a connection, you can log in via SSH at the terminal prompt, or enter the default address into the browser URL. Go to the Assign IP in Web UI section if you want to log in through the Web UI. Go to the next step if you want to log in to the CLI.

5. At the terminal window prompt, type ssh admin@10.60.4.180. Enter password netoptics. The Net Optics prompt appears.

6. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and netoptics for the password.

7. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following command at the prompt:

modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd>

where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and

<re-enter_passwd> is your password entered again.

8. Go to Configure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP address.

For more information about using the iBypass 40G Switch CLI, enter help to display command information or see the iBypass 40G Switch User Guide for more details.

Step 3 (cont.)

Option 2 - Connect PC to the Console Port

1. Connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the iBypass 40G Switch Console port with the supplied DB9-RJ45 console cable. See Figure 6.

2. Launch the terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal or minicom, and set the communication parameters to 115,200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.

3. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and netoptics for the password.

4. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following command at the prompt:

modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd>

where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and

<re-enter_passwd> is your password entered again.

5. Go to Configure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP address.

For more information about using the iBypass 40G Switch CLI, enter help to display command information or see the iBypass 40G Switch User Guide for more details.

Step 4Configure the IP

The iBypass 40G switch ships with a default address. You can decide to use the default address, assign a static IPv4 or IPv6 IP address or use DHCP to assign an address.

To configure the system with a static IPv4 or IPv6 address, do the following:

1. At the CLI prompt, type the following to set the address mode to static:

set network mode static

2. Type the following to set the IPv4 address:

set network ipaddress <d.d.d.d> where <d.d.d.d> is the IPv4 address

3. Type the following to set the network mask:

set network netmask <m.m.m.m> where <m.m.m.m> is the netmask.

4. Type the following to set the gateway:

set network gateway <g.g.g.g> where <g.g.g.g> is the gateway address.

5. Type reboot host, to reboot the system. This is required for the new address to take effect. The new IP address will display in the LCD. After setting the IP address, connect the Management port to the network, so that you can access the device remotely over SSH or launch the Web UI with the new IP address.

15

Do the following to configure the system to use a DHCP address:

1. At the CLI prompt, type set network mode dhcp.

2. At the next prompt, type reboot host

3. After reboot, log into the iBypass via the PC connected to the Console port.

4. At the CLI prompt, enter show network. The screen will display the address that was assigned to the switch.

16

Assign IP in Web UI

If you want to change the IP address through the Web UI, do the following:

1. Open a browser on a PC connected to the iBypass switch or on the same subnet, and enter the default IP address in the URL, https://10.60.4.180.

2. At the iBypass log in banner page, enter Username admin and Password netoptics. The Home page displays. See Figure 7.

3. At the Home page, click on the Configuration tab. The Configuration page displays. See Figure 8.

4. Select IP version, select Static or DHCP.

5. If you select Static, enter the IP address, netmask, and gateway.

6. Click the Apply button.

7. Click Reboot.

8. After the iBypass has rebooted, enter the new IP address at the URL.

9. Re-log in. The iBypass home page displays.

Step 5Connect to the Network

The iBypass 40G Switch Network ports require 40G MTP cables.

Network port B to a network switch or router

Network port A to a network switch or router

Figure 10 - MTP Cables to the Network

1. Connect Network Port A to a network device with a 40G MTP cable.

2. Connect Network Port B to another network device using another 40G MTP cable.

3. Verify that the Network ports are cabled in-line between two network devices.

4. Verify the link status LED illuminates for each connected port.

5. Verify the ACT LED flashes when there is traffic on the network link.

Step 6Connect Monitoring Tools

Do the following to connect monitoring tools to the iBypass 40G Switch:

Insert transceiver toMonitor port 1

Insert transceiver to Monitor port 2

Figure 11 - QSFP Connections to the Monitoring Tools

1. Insert QSFP+ transceivers into Monitor port 1 and Monitor port 2.

2. Connect a cable to Monitor port 1 transceiver and connect the other end to a monitoring tool.

3. Connect a cable to Monitor port 2 transceiver and connect the other end to another monitoring tool.

4. Verify that the monitoring tools are receiving traffic from the iBypass 40G Switch.
