Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3030

Getting Started Guide

This guide provides instructions on how to install your Cisco Catalyst Blade

Switch 3030—hereafter referred to as the switch module—in the Dell Modular

Server Chassis and to set up and configure your switch module. The Dell Modular

Server Chassis—hereafter referred to as the server chassis—is a system that

supports up to ten server modules and up to four Ethernet switch modules. The

switch module is installed in one of the chassis I/O module bays on the rear panel

of the server chassis.

Also covered in this guide are switch management options and troubleshooting

help for the switch module.

For details on the number, types, and the location of the module bays and for

additional information on the entire modular server system, see the Dell

PowerEdge 1855 Systems User's Guide and the Dell PowerEdge 1855 Systems

Installation and Troubleshooting Guide at www.support.dell.com.

For additional installation and configuration information about the switch

module, see the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3030 documentation on Cisco.com.

For system requirements, important notes, limitations, open and resolved caveats,

and last-minute documentation updates about the switch module, see the release

notes, also on Cisco.com.

When using the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco

IOS software version that is running on the switch. You can order printed copies

of the manuals from the Cisco.com sites and from the telephone numbers listed in

the “Obtaining Documentation” section on page 1-24.

2. Return the packing material to the shipping container, and save it for

future use.

Note If the switch modules are ordered with the server chassis, the switch modules are

already installed, and no unpacking is required. The unpacking procedure applies

only if a switch module is ordered separately.

Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module Description

Figure 1 shows the switch module, which has these features:

•10 internal Gigabit Ethernet 1000BASE-X ports

•1 console port

•2 external 10/100/1000BASE-T copper Gigabit Ethernet ports

•4 external small form-factor pluggable (SFP) module uplink ports that

support 1000BASE-SX fiber and 10/100/1000BASE-T copper (only Cisco

SFP modules are supported)

Each port has an LED associated with it. Additionally, there is a System

Status/ID LED that is controlled by the Dell Remote Access Controller/Modular

Chassis (DRAC/MC) management board.

Dell Modular Server Chassis Architecture

The four chassis I/O module bays are on the rear panel (see Figure 2). You can

insert switch modules into the chassis I/O module bays 1 and 2. Use bays 3 and 4

for switch modules only if a Gigabit Ethernet daughter card is installed on the

server modules.

Consider these prerequisites before installing your switch module:

•Bay 1 and bay 2 are a pair. Bay 1 must be populated before bay 2. If bay 2 is

used, the I/O module in bay 2 must be the same type as the one in bay 1.

•Bay 3 and bay 4 are a pair. Bay 3 must be populated before bay 4. If bay 4 is

used, the I/O module in bay 4 must be the same type as the one in bay 3.

For more information about the components of the information panel, see the Dell

PowerEdge 1855 Systems User's Guide and the Dell PowerEdge 1855 Systems

Installation and Troubleshooting Guide.

Installing the Switch Module in the Server Chassis

Before you install the switch module in the server chassis, consider these points:

•Review and become familiar with the safety and handling guidelines

specified in the Product Information Guide.

•Review the and the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the

Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3030 that accompanies this guide.

•To help ensure proper cooling and system reliability, keep these points in

mind:

–

Each chassis I/O module bay must contain either a module or an end-cap

(blank plug).

–

When you remove a hot-swap module, you must replace it with an

identical module or an end-cap (blank plug) within 1 minute of removal.

Caution To prevent electrostatic-discharge (ESD) damage when installing switch modules,

follow your normal board and component handling procedures.

Note When you install a switch module, you do not need to power down the server

modules or the switch.

Installing the Switch Module in the Server Chassis

Note The initial configuration assumes that the switch module was never configured,

that it is in the same state as when it was received, and that it is not configured

with a default username and password.

Follow these steps to install the switch module into the server chassis:

Step 1 Obtain and make note of this information from your network administrator before

you begin the switch module installation:

•Switch IP address

•Subnet mask (IP netmask)

•Default gateway (router)

•Enable secret password (encrypted)

•Enable password (not encrypted)

•Telnet password

•SNMP community strings (optional)

Step 2 Select a chassis I/O module bay in which to install the switch module. Follow the

prerequisites listed in the “Dell Modular Server Chassis Architecture” section on

page 1-5.

Step 3 Remove the end-cap (blank plug) from the selected bay. Store the end-cap (blank

plug) for future use.

Step 4 If you have not already done so, touch the static-protective package that contains

the switch module to an unpainted metal part of the server chassis for at least 2

seconds.

Step 5 Remove the switch module from its static-protective package.

Step 6 Ensure that the release latch on the switch module is in the open position

(perpendicular to the module):

Installing the Switch Module in the Server Chassis

Configuring the Switch Module

Note To run the system configuration dialog, you must first connect the switch to a PC

to run a terminal emulation program. There are two ways you can connect the PC

to the switch: either through the switch console port or through the DRAC/MC

console port. Instructions for these two procedures are included in this section.

If you connect to the switch through the DRAC/MC, the switch console port is

disabled. After you have completed the configuration procedure, you must use the

disconnect command to close the active console port and re-enable the switch

console port. Type logout to log out of the switch, then type ~. to disconnect the

DRAC/MC from the switch.

Follow one of these procedures:

•To run the terminal emulation program through the switch module console

port, go to “Connecting through the Switch Module Console Port” section on

page 1-9.

•To run the terminal emulation program through the DRAC/MC port, go to

“Connecting through the DRAC/MC” section on page 1-11.

Connecting through the Switch Module Console Port

Follow these steps when connecting through the switch module console port:

Step 1 Connect one end of the console cable to the switch module console port. Connect

the other end of the cable to the serial port of the computer that is running the

terminal emulation application. (See Figure 4.)

Figure 4 Connecting through the Switch Module Console Port

Step 2 Start the terminal emulation session so you will be able to see the output display

from the power-on self-test (POST). The terminal-emulation software—a PC

application such as Hyperterminal or ProcommPlus—makes communication

between the switch and your PC or terminal possible.

Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these

console port default characteristics:

•9600 baud

•8 data bits

•1 stop bit

•No parity

•None (flow control)

Step 3 Go to “Waiting for POST to Complete” section on page 1-13 to finish configuring

the switch module.
