HP AdvanceStack Switch 2000 FDDI Module

HP AdvanceStack Switch 2000

FDDI Module

At A Glance

TheHPAdvanceStack1-PortFDDIModule(HPJ3108A)isanoptionalcompo-

nent that you can add to an HP AdvanceStack Switch 2000 to provide either

aDual-Attach(DAS)oraSingle-Attach(SAS)connectiontoanFDDIring.You

can also use an optical bypass switch (optional) to connect to the ring.

Features: The HP AdvanceStack FDDI Module provides a 100 Mbit/s fiber-

optic port for connecting the HP AdvanceStack Switch 2000 to an FDDI ring.

The module can operate in any one of the following ways:

■As a single dual-attach station (DAS)

■As a single-attach station connected to one or two FDDI Module single-

attach stations (SAS)

■As a single-attach station connected to a concentrator

■As a dual-homed device

HP AdvanceStack Switch 2000 FDDI Module

Operating Requirements and Limitations:

■You must use multimode fiber-optic cable with the FDDI Module.

■The FDDI Module is designated as a high-power module. Due to power

requirements, the Switch 2000 can support no more than two “high-

power” modules. (That is, the Switch 2000 supports up to six installed

modules, but only two of the modules can be “high-power” modules.)

Caution The HP J3108A FDDI Module is designated as a module with “high

power” requirements.Installing more than two “high-power” modules

in the Switch 2000 may exceed the switch’s power supply capabilities

and is not supported.

Software Prerequisite: To use the FDDI Module in the Switch 2000, the

switch must be running software version A.02.01 or later. (Refer to step 1

under “Overview” on page 1.)

Standards Adherence: The J3108A FDDI Module complies with the

following standards:

■FDDI:

• PMD - ANSI X3.166 - 1990; ISO 9314-3:1990

• PHY - ANSI X3.148 - 1988; ISO 9314-1:1989

• MAC - ANSI X3.139 - 1987; ISO 9314-2:1989

• SMT - ANSI X3.229-1994; ISO 9314-6:199x (Version 7.3)

■RFC 1512 (FDDI MIB)

■RFC 1213 (MIB-2)

■RFC 1573 (Interface Evolution MIB)

■RFC 1757 (RMON MIB, including the following four groups)

• Ethernet Statistics group

• History Control group

• Ethernet History group

•Alarmgroup

■RFC 1042 (FDDI/Ethernet header translation)

■RFC 791 (IP fragmentation)

Overview

YoucaninstallanFDDIModuleintoanyoftheSwitch2000’ssixmoduleslots.

The following steps provide an overview. The actual installation procedure

begins on page 3.

1. For a first-time installation of an FDDI Module, update the Switch 2000

operating system (OS) to a version compatible with the FDDI Module by

using the software provided on the disk shipped with the module.

(Updating the OS software for either a first-time installation or for an

existing installation is described under “Downloading Software”on page

3.)

2. Install the FDDI Module in a Switch 2000 slot.

3. Reboot the Switch.

4. Use the Switch 2000 console interfaceto customize the configuration for

the FDDI port (unless the default port configuration—page 13—is

satisfactory for your network application). For information on using the

console interface, refer to the Console User’s Guide shipped with your

Switch 2000.

5. Ifyoucustomized theconfiguration for theFDDIport (step4), reboot the

switch by using the Reboot Switch option in the Main Menu of the

Switch 2000 console interface.

Overview

Caution TheHPJ3108AFDDIModuleisdesignatedasamodulerequiring“high

power”. Installing more than two high-power modules in the HP

J3100A Switch 2000 may exceed the switch’s power capabilities and

is not supported.

Ifnecessary,youcan“hot-swap”oneFDDIModuleforanother;thatis,replace

one module with another of the same type without rebooting the switch.

However, if you replace one moduletype with a different module type (such

as replacing an Ethernet Module with an FDDI Module), you must reboot the

switch after making the replacement.
