environment meets the requirements listed in Table 2.
Table 2 Checking list for the installation environment
Item
Requirements
Ventilation and heat dissipation
CAUTION:
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 Temperature/humidity
CAUTION:
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.
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 Intelbras SC 3570 Switch Series Hardware Information and
Specifications.

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.
CAUTION:
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.
· Ground the switch correctly. · To avoid ESD damage to the device or FRUs,
always wear an ESD
wrist strap when you install or remove the device or FRUs. · Make sure the
wrist strap has good skin contact and is reliably
grounded.
For more information, see “Cleanliness.”
The installation site must be free from corrosive gases such as acid gases and
alkaline gases. For more information, see “Corrosive gas limit.”
· 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.

reliably grounded. 2. Place the switch with bottom up, and clean the round
holes in the chassis bottom with dry cloth. 3. Attach the rubber feet to the
four round holes in the chassis bottom. 4. Place the switch with upside up on
the workbench.
Grounding the switch
WARNING! · Correctly connecting the grounding cable is crucial to lightning
protection and ESD and EMI
protection. You must connect the grounding cable correctly and reliably for
the switch.
The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is
directly connected to the chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known
as PGND). You must securely connect this chassis ground to the earth to
minimize the potential for system damage, maximize the safety at the site, and
minimize EMI susceptibility of the system. Select a grounding method based on
the installation environment.
NOTE: The power and grounding terminals in this section are for illustration
only.
Grounding the switch by using a grounding strip
CAUTION: · Connect the grounding cable to the grounding strip in the equipment
room. Do not connect it to a
fire main or lightning rod. · To guarantee the grounding effect and avoid
switch damage, use the grounding cable provided
with the switch to connect the switch to a grounding strip in the equipment
room.
If a grounding strip is available at the installation site, use the grounding
cable provided with the switch to connect the switch to the grounding strip.
Connecting the grounding cable to the chassis
1. Remove the grounding screw from the grounding hole in the chassis. 2. Use
the grounding screw to attach the ring terminal of the grounding cable to the
grounding
screw hole. Fasten the screw. As a best practice, use a torque of 5 kgf-cm
(0.49 Nm) to fasten the grounding screw.
5
IMPORTANT: Orient the grounding cable as shown in Figure 8 so that you can
easily install or remove the removable components.

Connecting the grounding cable to a grounding strip
1. Use needle-nose pliers to bend the bare metal part to the shape as shown
in Figure 9. Make sure the bended part can securely attached to the grounding
post on the grounding strip.
2. Attach the bended part of the grounding cable to the grounding post and
use the hex nut to fasten the bended part to the post.

Grounding the switch by using a grounding conductor buried in the earth ground
If the installation site does not have grounding strips, but earth ground is
available, hammer a 0.5 m (1.64 ft) or longer angle iron or steel tube into
the earth ground to act as a grounding conductor.
6
The dimensions of the angle iron must be a minimum of 50 × 50 × 5 mm (1.97 ×
1.97 × 0.20 in). The steel tube must be zinc-coated and its wall thickness
must be at least 3.5 mm (0.14 in).
Weld the yellow-green grounding cable to the angel iron or steel tube and
treat the joint for corrosion protection.

Verifying the connection after grounding the switch
· If you ground the switch by using a grounding strip, perform the following
tasks:
a. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the switch grounding
terminal and grounding point, and make sure the resistance is less than 0.1
b. Use a grounding resistance tester to measure the grounding resistance of
the grounding strip, and make sure the grounding resistance is less than 1
· If you ground the switch by using a grounding conductor buried in the earth
ground, perform the following tasks:
a. Use a multimeter to measure the resistance between the switch grounding
terminal and grounding point, and make sure the resistance is less than 0.1
b. Use a grounding resistance tester to measure the grounding resistance of
the angle iron in the ground, and make sure the grounding resistance is less
than 10. For locations with high soil resistivity, sprinkle some resistance
reducer to reduce soil resistivity or replace soil around the grounding strip
with soil with lower resistance.

Setting terminal parameters
To configure and manage the switch through the console port, you must run a
terminal emulator program, such as TeraTermPro, on your configuration
terminal. You can use the emulator program to connect a network device, a
Telnet site, or an SSH site. For more information about the terminal emulator
programs, see the user guides for these programs. Configure the terminal
parameters as follows: · Bits per second–9,600. · Data bits–8. · Parity–None.
· Stop bits–1. · Flow control–None.
Starting the switch
Pre-start checklist
Before powering on the switch, verify the following items: · The power cord is
correctly connected. · The input power voltage is as required by the switch. ·
The console cable is correctly connected. · The PC has started, and the
terminal parameters have been correctly configured.
Powering on the switch
During the startup process, you can access Boot ROM menus to perform tasks
such as software upgrade and file management. The Boot ROM interface and menu
options differ with software versions. For more information about Boot ROM
menu options, see the software-matching release notes for the device. After
the startup process is completed, you can access the CLI to configure the
switch. For more information about the configuration commands, see the
configuration guides and command references for the switch.

Setting up an IRF fabric (Stacking)
You can use Intelbras IRF technology to connect and virtualize SC 3570
switches into a large virtual switch called an “IRF fabric” for flattened
network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. A SC
3570 switch can set up an IRF fabric only with switches from the same switch
series. All IRF member devices must run the same software image version. Make
sure the software auto-update feature is enabled on all member devices.

See the IRF configuration guide for the switch series. Connect physical IRF
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.
NOTE: For the maximum IRF member devices supported by the switch, see the
release notes that come with the switch.
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
configuration guides and command references for the switch. 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.
2
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 a minimum
of 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. See Table 14 for the
available IRF physical ports. You can bind several IRF physical ports to an
IRF port for increased bandwidth and availability. Figure 29 and Figure 30
show the topologies of an IRF fabric made up of three SC 3570 switches. The
IRF port connections in the two figures are for illustration only, and more
connection methods are available. Figure 29 IRF fabric in daisy chain topology

Use restrictions
· Physical ports on interface modules and the front panel can be bound to the
same IRF logical interface.
· All physical ports to be bound to an IRF logical interface must have the
same data rate.
· A 10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port or SFP port can be used as an
IRF physical port only when it operates at 1 Gbps.
· A 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T/2.5GBA SE-T autosensing Ethernet port can be used as
an IRF physical port only when it operates at 2.5 Gbps.
· An SFP+ port can be used as an IRF physical port only when it operates at 10
Gbps.
· For a switch that has six SFP+ ports, use the four SFP+ ports with the
highest numbers as IRF ports. For a switch that has four SFP+ ports, use the
two SFP+ ports with the highest numbers as IRF ports. Using these ports as IRF
ports can prevent issues such as IRF split, because IRF protocol packets from
these ports can be forwarded in a queue with a higher priority.
Planning the cabling scheme
Use the following cables to connect the IRF physical ports on the switch: ·
10/100/1000BASE-T autosensing Ethernet port–Category 5 or above twisted-pair
cable. · 100BASE-TX/1000BASE-T/2.5GBASE-T autosensing Ethernet port–Category
5e 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 Intelbras SC 3570 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 Intelbras SC 3570 Switch Series Hardware Information and
Specifications. For a short-distance IRF connection in an equipment room, use
a twisted pair/SFP+/SFP cable. For a long-distance IRF connection, use
transceiver modules and optical fibers.

The following subsections describe several Intelbras recommended IRF
connection schemes by using SFP+ cables and SFP+ transceiver modules and
fibers. All these schemes use a ring topology.
IMPORTANT: In these schemes, all physical IRF ports are located on the same
side. If physical IRF ports are on different sides, you must measure the
distance between them to select an appropriate cable.
Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack Connect the IRF member switches
(4 switches in this example) in a rack as shown in Figure 31. The switches in
the ring topology (see Figure 32) are in the same order as connected in the
rack. Figure 31 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. Figure 33 ToR cabling
Configuring basic IRF settings
After you install the IRF member switches, power on the switches, and log in
to each IRF member switch 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. · To bind the ports on an interface module
to an IRF port, you must install the interface module first. · Execute the
display irf configuration command to verify the basic IRF settings. For more
information about configuring basic IRF settings, see IRF configuration in the
configuration guide for the switch.
Connecting the physical IRF ports
Connect the IRF member switches as planned. Wear an ESD wrist strap when you
connect cables or transceiver modules and fibers. For how to connect them, see
Intelbras Transceiver Modules and Network Cables Installation 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, web, or
SNMP to access the IRF fabric from the network management station.
(See the configuration guides and command references for the switch.) 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 Table
15.

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 IRF configuration in the configuration guides for the switch.
