Safety recommendations
To avoid equipment damage or bodily injury, read the following safety recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition.
· Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch with wet cloth or liquid.
· Do not place the switch near water or in a damp environment. Prevent water or moisture from entering the switch chassis.
· Do not place the switch on an unstable case or desk.
· Ensure good ventilation at the installation site and keep the air inlet and outlet vents of the switch free of obstruction.
· Connect the yellow-green protection grounding cable before power-on.
· Make sure the power source voltage is as required.
· To avoid electrical shocks, do not open the chassis while the switch is operating or when the switch is just powered off.
· When you install the switch, or install or remove modules, wear an ESD wrist strap and make sure it makes good skin contact and is reliably grounded.
Examining the installation environment
To ensure correct operation of your switch, make sure the installation environment meets the requirements listed in Table1-2.
Table1-2 Checking list for the installation environment
|
Item |
Requirements |
|
Ventilation and heat dissipation |
To ensure correct operation of your device, make sure the installation environment is adequately ventilated to prevent the switch from overheating. · Ensure a minimum clearance of 10 cm (3.94 in) around the chassis. · Do not install the device near a heat source, for example, a stove or heater. · Ensure air ventilation in the installation environment. · Do not block the ventilation holes in the device or power adapter. |
|
Anti-moisture |
Water or moisture might damage the circuits of the device. · Do not place the device near water or in a damp environment. · Install the switch in a clean, dry, and ventilated place where temperature is controlled in a stable range. · Make sure the installation environment is free from water leakage or condensation. If required, install a dehumidification device (such as an air conditioner with a dehumidification function or a dedicated dehumidifier). · Do not operate the device under or near the water source, such as the wash basin, laundry room, or areas with high humidity. · Do not touch the device with wet hands. |
|
Temperature/humidity |
For correct operation and long service life of your switch, maintain the temperature and humidity in the equipment room at acceptable ranges. · Lasting high relative humidity can cause poor insulation, electricity leakage, mechanical property change of materials, and metal corrosion. · Lasting low relative humidity can cause washer contraction and ESD and cause issues including loose mounting screws and circuit failure. · High temperature can accelerate the aging of insulation materials and significantly lower the reliability and lifespan of the switch. For the temperature and humidity requirements of the switch, see technical specifications in S5130S-EI Switch Series Hardware Information and Specifications. |
|
Lightning protection |
Ground the switch correctly and verify the grounding. For more information, see "Grounding the switch." · If you ground the switch by using a grounding strip, make sure the grounding resistance of the grounding strip in the equipment room is less than 1W. · If you ground the switch by using a grounding conductor buried in the earth ground, make sure the grounding resistance of the grounding conductor in the ground is less than 10W. · Route the signal cables along indoor walls, bury the cables in the earth ground, or thread the cables through steel tubes. Install a signal lightning arrester with a nominal discharge current for a corresponding network interface. · Keep the signal cables far from power cords and lightning rod down conductors. · As a best practice, route power cords indoors. If an AC power cord is routed from outdoors, connect the AC power cord first to a power lightning arrester before leading it to the AC power port on the switch. Make sure the power lightning arrester has a nominal discharge current and the total length of the power cord from the power lighting arrester to the power port on the switch is less than 5 m (16.40 ft). · Ground the switch, rack, independent power supplies, and lightning arresters separately. · You must ground optical fibers with reinforcing metal stiffener from outdoors on an optical distribution frame (ODF) or fiber splice enclosure. |
|
Cable routing |
Do not run an Ethernet cable and power cord in parallel. · Route different types of cables separately. · Keep power cords a minimum of 5 cm (1.97 in) away from other cables. |
|
ESD prevention |
· Ground the switch correctly. · To avoid ESD damage to the device or components, always wear an ESD wrist strap when you install or remove the device or components. · Make sure the wrist strap has good skin contact and is reliably grounded. |
|
Cleanliness |
· For more information, see "Cleanliness." |
|
Corrosive gas prevention |
The installation site must be free from corrosive gases such as acid gases and alkaline gases. For more information, see "Corrosive gas limit." |
|
EMI |
· If AC power is used, use a single-phase three-wire power receptacle with protection earth (PE) to filter interference from the power grid. · Keep the device far away from radio transmitting stations, radar stations, and high-frequency devices. · Use electromagnetic shielding, for example, shielded interface cables, when necessary. |
Cleanliness
Dust buildup on the chassis might cause electrostatic adsorption and dust corrosion, resulting in poor contact of metal connectors and contact points. This might shorten the device's lifetime and even cause device failure in the worst case. Table1-3 describes the switch requirement for cleanliness.

4 Setting up an IRF fabric
You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize the switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability.
IRF fabric setup flowchart
Figure4-1 IRF fabric setup flowchart
To set up an IRF fabric:
|
Step |
Description |
|
1. Plan IRF fabric setup. |
Plan the installation site and IRF fabric setup parameters: · Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site · Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs · Planning IRF topology and connections |
|
2. Install IRF member switches. |
See "Installing the switch in a 19-inch rack" or "Mounting the switch on a workbench." |
|
3. Connect grounding cables and power cords. |
See "Grounding the switch" and "Connecting the power cord." |
|
4. Power on the switches. |
N/A |
|
5. Configure basic IRF settings. |
See the IRF configuration guide or virtual technologies configuration guide for the switch series, depending on the software version. |
|
6. Connect the IRF physical ports. |
Connect IRF physical ports on switches. All switches except the master switch automatically reboot, and the IRF fabric is established. |
Planning IRF fabric setup
This section describes issues that an IRF fabric setup plan must cover.
Planning IRF fabric size and the installation site
Choose switch models and identify the number of required IRF member switches, depending on the user density and upstream bandwidth requirements. The switching capacity of an IRF fabric equals the total switching capacities of all member switches.
Plan the installation site depending on your network solution, as follows:
· Place all IRF member switches in one rack for centralized high-density access.
· Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the ToR access solution for a data center.
Identifying the master switch and planning IRF member IDs
Determine which switch you want to use as the master for managing all member switches in the IRF fabric. An IRF fabric has only one master switch. You configure and manage all member switches in the IRF fabric at the CLI of the master switch. IRF member switches automatically elect a master. You can affect the election result by assigning a high member priority to the intended master switch. For more information about master election, see the IRF configuration guide or virtual technologies configuration guide for the switch series, depending on the software version.
Prepare an IRF member ID assignment scheme. An IRF fabric uses member IDs to uniquely identify and manage its members, and you must assign each IRF member switch a unique member ID.
Planning IRF topology and connections
You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology or more reliable ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology. Instead, the IRF fabric changes to a daisy chain topology without interrupting network services.
You connect the IRF member switches through IRF ports, the logical interfaces for the connections between IRF member switches. Each IRF member switch has two IRF ports: IRF-port 1 and IRF-port 2. To use an IRF port, you must bind at least one physical port to it.
When connecting two neighboring IRF member switches, you must connect the physical ports of IRF-port 1 on one switch to the physical ports of IRF-port 2 on the other switch.
The switch can form an IRF fabric only with switches from the same switch series. For the physical ports that can be used for IRF connections and the restrictions for using the ports, see Table4-1. The IRF physical ports can set up IRF connections only when operating at their highest speeds. For example, a 10-GE port must operate at 10 Gbps. A 1-GE port must operate at 1 Gbps.
You can bind multiple ports to an IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability.

Planning the cabling scheme
Use the following cables to connect the IRF physical ports on the switches:
· 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port—Category 5 or above twisted-pair cable.
· 5G/2.5G/1000BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port—Category 5e or above twisted-pair cable.
· 2.5G/1000/100BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port—Category 5e or above twisted-pair cable.
· 10/5/2.5/1GBASE-T autosensing Ethernet port—Category 6 or above twisted-pair cable.
· SFP port—GE SFP fiber transceiver module and optical fiber, GE SFP copper transceiver module and twisted pair cable or GE SFP cable. For the available transceiver models and cables, see ports in S5130S-EI Switch Series Hardware Information and Specifications.
· SFP+ port—SFP+ fiber transceiver module and optical fiber or SFP+ cable. For the available transceiver models and cables, see ports in S5130S-EI Switch Series Hardware Information and Specifications.
If the IRF member switches are far away from one another, use transceiver modules and optical fibers. If the IRF member switches are all in one equipment room, use twisted pair cables or SFP/SFP+ cables.
As a best practice, use ring topology to connect the switches. The following describes cabling schemes in ring topology.
Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack
Use SFP cables to connect the IRF member switches in a rack as shown in Figure4-4. The switches in the ring topology (see Figure4-5) are in the same order as connected in the rack.
Figure4-4 Connecting the switches in one rack
Connecting the IRF member switches in a ToR solution
You can install IRF member switches in different racks side by side to deploy a top of rack (ToR) solution.
Figure4-6 shows an example for connecting four top of rack IRF member switches. The topology is the same as Figure4-5.
Configuring basic IRF settings
After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in to each IRF member switch (see the fundamentals configuration guide for the switch series) to configure their member IDs, member priorities, and IRF port bindings.
Follow these guidelines when you configure the switches:
· Assign the master switch higher member priority than any other switch.
· Bind physical ports to IRF port 1 on one switch and to IRF port 2 on the other switch. You perform IRF port binding before or after connecting IRF physical ports depending on the software release.
· Execute the display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings.
For more information about configuring basic IRF settings, see the IRF configuration guide or virtual technologies configuration guide for the switch series, depending on the software version.
Connecting the IRF physical ports
Connect the IRF member switches as planned.
Wear an ESD wrist strap when you connect transceiver modules and fibers. For how to connect them, see H3C Transceiver Modules User Guide.
Verifying the IRF fabric setup
To verify the basic functionality of the IRF fabric after you finish configuring basic IRF settings and connecting IRF ports:
1. Log in to the IRF fabric through the console port of any member switch.
2. Create a Layer 3 interface, assign it an IP address, and make sure the IRF fabric and the remote network management station can reach each other.
3. Use Telnet or SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station. (See the fundamentals configuration guide for the switch series.)
4. Verify that you can manage all member switches as if they were one node.
5. Display the running status of the IRF fabric by using the commands in Table4-2.

NOTE: To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure a minimum of one multi-active detection (MAD) mechanism to detect the presence of multiple identical IRF fabrics and handle collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see the IRF configuration guide or virtual technologies configuration guide for the switch series, depending on the software version. |
5 Maintenance and troubleshooting
Fixed power supply failure
To identify a power failure on a switch with fixed power supplies, examine the system status LED (SYS) and the RPS status LED (RPS) on the switch.
