Connecting a
Redundant Power
Supply
The Switch 4210 26-port PWR has a -48V DC Redundant Power Supply socket.
WARNING: Only properly trained and qualified personnel should install the
Redundant Power Supply (RPS).
WARNING: Make sure to read these instructions in conjunction with the RPS flyer
and the safety and installation instructions supplied with your RPS.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
Connecting a Redundant Power Supply
29
WARNING: When powering any Switch 4210 from an RPS, make sure that the
unit is earthed (grounded) by either connecting the power cord to the unit or by
connecting the earth terminal on the rear of the unit to a reliable electrical earth
(or by connecting both). Ensure that the earth connection is made before
connecting the DC supply from the RPS.
3Com switches that support -48V DC RPS inputs, and are PoE enabled, can only
be powered by an RPS that complies with the isolation requirements of IEEE-Std
802.3af. Non PoE enabled switches do not have this restriction.
WARNING: Do not use a standard 'positive-earthed' -48V redundant power
system suitable for use with telecommunications equipment with the 3Com
Power-over-Ethernet (PoE) network switches. In order to meet the IEEE 802.3af
(PoE) specification, the -48V output must be isolated from earth (ground) and
meet the isolation requirements in that specification.
WARNING: Any RPS must be approved as a SELV output in accordance with IEC
60950-1/UL 60950-1/EN 60950-1.
WARNING: The characteristics of the Switch 4210 DC supply input are provided in
You can power the Switch 4210 using three methods:
■
■
■
AC Mains only — this does not offer any power redundancy. If the AC mains
supply or the AC power supply fails, the switch powers off.
AC Mains and -48V DC (primary supply) — the internal AC supply acts as
the backup in the event of a DC power failure.
DC only — the switch does not need an AC supply and the resiliency is
provided by the DC supply. This is useful in environments where only DC power
is available.
The RPS provides two main benefits:
■
Power Redundancy — if a switch is powered from the mains supply unit, a
failure of the internal power supply causes the switch to fail. You can avoid this
by connecting both the AC and DC RPS supplies to the switch. You can also
add redundancy to the DC power by using (N+1) DC power supplies to further
increase the availability of the system.
■
Uninterruptable Power — the system allows easy connection and
maintenance of batteries to the RPS shelf to further increase the availability of
the system.
Specifying the 3Com’s redundant power solution allows you to use any off-the-shelf -48V DC
System
For an approved vendor list, more details about purchasing the 3Com
recommended RPS, and a full set of requirements go to:
http://www.3Com.com/RPS
The 3Com recommended RPS generates -48V DC power using power supply units
(or rectifiers). The outputs of the rectifier(s) are connected together so that you
can increase the total -48V power available by adding rectifiers. For example, three

The unearthed -48V DC power distribution provides the mechanism to connect to
the Switch 4210. The distribution consists of several circuit breakers and
connection terminals for the positive (common) and negative -48V outputs.
Individually connect each Switch 4210 to a circuit breaker terminal.
You can also connect a battery to battery terminals prior to the DC power
distribution to provide uninterrupted power and to be protected against the loss
of AC mains power.
3Com’s RPS solution uses -48V DC power distribution. The RPS system provides
bulk -48V DC power that is separately distributed to a number of network
switches.
Each RPS consists of a shelf that can house from one to six rectifiers, a Distribution
Module, and a Management Module.
Connecting the Switch When connecting the RPS to the switch, the circuit breaker and 2-core cables need
System circuit breaker and cable rating for the Switch 4210. The recommended cable
length should not exceed three metres (9.84 feet).

When the RPS is connected to the switch, you can move the circuit breaker in the
RPS to the closed (on) position and the switch will be powered by the -48V DC
power.
The -48V DC power takes priority over the AC mains and powers the switch if it is
connected.
Connecting the Earthing Use the earthing cable that accompanies your switch if the length is suitable.
The earthing cable is only required if the switch is powered by the RPS only.
The recommended cable length should not exceed three meters (9.84 feet).
Using Power over The Switch 4210 Power over Ethernet (PoE) units can supply power to any IEEE
Ethernet 802.3af compliant device through any of its front panel ports over a Category 5 or
Category 5e Ethernet cable. The same cable connects the device to the network.
The Switch 4210 units can supply power through the 10/100 ports only.
Power over Ethernet is a self-configuring protocol. When you plug a PoE

power required to the device, providing that the total power budget for the switch
is not exceeded.
A PoE switch combines the functionality of a standard Ethernet switch with a
single power supply that can power multiple devices. Using a PoE switch has the
following advantages over an non-powered network.
■
Reduced Cabling — a PoE (802.3af) compliant device that has its power
supplied over its Ethernet cable does not require a separate power supply. If,
for example, you use the switch to connect a 3Com 11 Mbps Wireless LAN
Access Point 8500 to the network, then only a network cable is required to
provide both power and network connectivity.
■
Increased Reliability — a device powered by a PoE switch can take advantage
of the facilities available to the switch. You can fit the switch with a redundant
power supply or uninterruptible power supply to increase its uptime.
The switch supports resistor detection according to IEEE 802.3af and pre-standard
detection methods.
The Switch 4210 supports 3Com 802.3af equipment. For the latest list of
supported devices, refer to the product page on the 3Com web site at
For additional information on Power over Ethernet, refer to the Power over
Ethernet Configuration chapter in the Configuration Guide available on the 3Com
Web site. Power over Ethernet management is available using the web interface or
the command line interface (CLI).
Connecting the
Console Cable
A Console cable is an 8-core cable. One end of the cable is a crimped RJ-45
connector for the connection to the Console port of the switch, and the other end
is a DB-9 female connector for the connection to the serial port on the Console

IP Configuration In order for the device to be remotely managed, it requires an IP address. You can
use one of the following methods to allocate IP information to your switch.
Configuring IP Manually
When you configure the IP information, the switch remembers the information
that you enter until you change it again. You should use the Manual IP
configuration method if:
■
■
■
you do not have a DHCP or BootP server on your network
you want to remove the risk of the IP address ever changing
your DHCP or BootP server does not allow you to allocate static IP addresses.
(Static IP addresses are necessary to ensure that the switch is always allocated
the same IP information.)
For most installations, 3Com recommends that you assign a known IP address to
your switch. This makes management simpler and more reliable as it is not

dependent on a DHCP or BootP server, and eliminates the risk of the IP address
changing.
Automatically Configuring the IP Address using DHCP
By default the switch attempts to obtain an IP address from a DHCP server on the
network without requesting user intervention. When using automatic IP
configuration, it is important that the switch’s IP address is static so that you know
what it is, otherwise it will be difficult to manage that switch. Most DHCP servers
allow you to configure static IP addresses. Refer to the documentation that
accompanies your DHCP server.
For a detailed description of how automatic IP configuration operates, refer to the
Configuration Guide on the 3Com Web Site.
You should use the automatic IP configuration method if:
■
■
Your network uses DHCP to allocate IP information
Flexibility is needed. If the switch is deployed on a different subnet, it
automatically reconfigures itself with an appropriate IP address so that you to
not have to manually reconfigure the switch.
If the switch is not allocated with an automatic IP address, the IP configuration will
be blank or shown as ‘’’’.
If you use the automatic IP configuration method, you need to discover the
automatically allocated IP information before you can begin management.

CHAPTER 3: MANAGING YOUR SWITCH
Manually Configuring
IP Information
You can manually configure the switch IP information by:
■
Connecting a workstation to the switch’s console port using a console cable.
You can then manually enter the IP information using the command line
interface (CLI). This is the only way to assign an IP address to a device that does
not have an IP address already, or that has an unknown IP address. You can also
use this method to change switch’s IP information.
■
Connecting a workstation to one of the port’s on the switch’s front panel using
an Ethernet cable. You can then manually enter the IP information using the
web interface or the command line interface. This is only applicable if the
device already has an IP address and you know that address.
Connecting to the To set up your switch manually you can make a connection to the console port,
Console Port (this example describes a local connection to the console port, rather than one
using a modem). You can do this while the switch is offline (before you connect
the switch to a network) or while the switch is online (connected to a network).
Prerequisites
■

CHAPTER 4: PROBLEM SOLVING
Solving Problems
Indicated by LEDs
If the LEDs on the switch indicate a problem, refer to the list of suggested
solutions below.
The PWR LED does not light
Check that the power cable is firmly connected to the switch and to the supply
outlet. If the connection is secure and there is still no power, you may have a faulty
power cord or an internal fault. Check the power cord by:
■
Testing it in another device.
■
Connecting a working power cord to the ‘problem’ device and contact your
supplier for advice.
On powering-up, the PWR LED lights Red
The switch unit has failed its Power On Self Test (POST) because of an internal
problem. The fault type will be indicated on the unit LEDs. Contact your supplier
for advice.
On powering-up, the PWR LED is flashing yellow
A port has failed and has been automatically disabled. You can verify this by
checking that the Port LED is quickly flashing Yellow. If a port fails, the switch
passes its Power On Self Test and continues to operate normally.
A Port LED is flashing yellow
The port has failed and has been automatically disabled. The switch passes its
Power On Self Test and continues to operate normally, even if one or more ports
are disabled.
A link is connected and yet the Port LED does not light
Check that:
■
The switch and the device at the other end of the link (or cable) are connected
securely.
■
■
■
The devices at both ends of the link are powered-up
The quality of cable is satisfactory
Auto-negotiation settings are the same at both ends.
Auto-negotiation problems will occur with 10BASE-T or 100BASE-T where
auto-negotiation is disabled and incorrect cables are being used (cross-over or
straight).
Auto-negotiation problems will occur with fiber if:
■
■
■
The Receiver (RX) and Transceiver (TX) cable connectors are swapped
Fibers are broken
Auto-negotiation differs at either end (a link appears at the ‘fixed’ end and
not at the auto-negotiation end)

Solving Hardware Problems
53
Solving Hardware
Problems
In the rare event of your switch unit experiencing a hardware failure, refer to the
list of suggested solutions below.
A fan failure warning message is received
Your switch has a fan monitoring system that will generate fan failure warning
messages. Fan failure could potentially reduce the lifetime of the switch. The
monitoring system polls the fan status at periodic intervals while the unit is
powered up.
If one fan has failed in the switch, a warning message will be generated in the
following ways:
■
Unit LED
The seven segment display will show a green flashing ‘f’.
■
RMON Trap
If configured, an RMON trap is generated and sent to the management
workstation.
■
Command Line Interface
An indication of a general hardware failure is provided through the Top level
menu displayed when logging on to the CLI. For more detailed information
about the failure select the display logbuffer command.
■
Web interface
An indication of fan failure is provided through the Device Summary table for
the specific unit. In addition all Summary tables turn red to indicate the fan
failure.
If a fan failure warning message is generated:
1 Power off the unit.
2 Check that the air vents are not obstructed.
3 Power cycle the unit. To do this, remove and reconnect the AC mains supply. If
another fan failure warning message is generated using the Command Line
Interface or the Web interface, return the unit to 3Com.
Unit fails, no SNMP fan failure message is received
1 Power cycle the unit. To do this, remove and reconnect the AC mains supply.
2 Check the command line interface (display logbuffer command) to
determine whether a thermal shutdown has occurred.
3 If no, return the unit:
If yes, check that:
■
The air vents are not obstructed.
■
The ambient temperatures and environmental conditions meet those specified
in “Technical Specifications” on page 73.
4 Power cycle the unit. If a further thermal shutdown occurs, and all environmental
conditions are satisfactory, return the unit to 3Com.

CHAPTER 4: PROBLEM SOLVING
Error message indicating that the SFP transceiver is invalid
The switch has identified that the SFP does not meet the minimum requirements
for the switch and has disabled the port. To correct this problem, completely
remove the SFP and replace it with a 3Com approved SFP.
Error message indicating that the SFP transceiver is faulty
To correct this problem, completely remove the SFP and then reinsert it.
Alternatively, insert another identical SFP. If the problem persists, contact 3Com
Technical Support.
Solving
If you experience communication problems with the switch, ensure that:
Communication
Problems
■
The switch IP address and Management VLAN ID has been configured.
■
If the switch is separated from your management application by a router,
ensure that the default gateway IP address within the switch is the same as the
IP address of the router.
■
The switch’s IP address was discovered correctly by your network management
application.
The following is a brief overview of IP addressing, and how to obtain a registered
IP address.
IP Addressing
To be managed correctly, each device on your network (for example a switch or
Hub) must have a unique IP address. IP addresses have the format n.n.n.n where n
is a decimal number between 0 and 255. An example IP address is 192.168.100.8.
The IP address is split into two parts:
■
■
The first part (‘192.168.100’ in the example) identifies the network on which
the device resides
The second part (‘.8’ in the example) identifies the device within the network
The natural subnet mask for this example is 255.255.255.0.
If your network has a connection to the external IP network, that is, you access the
Internet, you must apply for a registered IP address.
How do you obtain a registered IP Address?
The IP registration system ensures that every IP address used is unique; if you do
not have a registered IP address, you may be using an identical address to
someone else and your network will not operate correctly.
InterNIC Registration Services is the organization responsible for supplying
registered IP addresses. The following contact information is correct at time of
publication:
World Wide Web site: http://www.internic.net
If your IP network is internal to your organization only, that is, you do not access
the Internet, you may use any arbitrary IP address as long as it is not being used by

another device on your network. 3Com suggests you use addresses in the range
192.168.0.0 to 192.168.255.255 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0.
These suggested IP addresses are part of a group of IP addresses that have been
set aside specially for use ‘in house’ only.
Solving Fabric
Formation Problems
If you are having problems with correctly forming a fabric, first ensure that
Spanning Tree is enabled. If it is enabled, do the following:
1 Power off all units in the fabric.
2 Check all the cable connections in the fabric.
3 Check the ports have been enabled as fabric ports.
4 Power on all units in the fabric.
