Installing the switch

Rack mount

Shelf mount

Caution: -. To avoid possible interference or damage, do not stack equipment on top of the switch.

Rack mounting guidelines

• The maximum ambient temperature of the space the switch is installed in should not exceed 122 °F/50 °C.
• Allow to air flow through the rack.
• Verify all the leveling feet or casters are adjusted correctly and they come in contact with the supporting surface.
• Always load heavier equipment at the bottom of the rack.
• Make sure the rack is grounded and the equipment is surge protected.
• Do not overload the power equipment, or the switch. Check out our WattBox Best Practices for more information.

Step 3: Connections

SFP+ ports
The SFP+ (Small Form Factor Pluggable plus) ports support up to 10 Gbps connection and are typically used to connect switches together. Use SFP+ adapters for RJ45 or multi-mode fiber cables (sold separately).

PoE budgeting

The PoE budget (Power over Ethernet) limits the amount of power available to all ports, with a maximum of 60W on an individual port. Add the total number of possible watts that the connected devices can consume to make sure everything can receive power reliably. See the example below.

Total PoE budget available = 240
Total PoE device consumption = 47
Remaining PoE budget available = 193

LED states & reset procedures

Front

*Configurable in the web interface.

Rear

Check the Link/Act LED to verify if packets are flowing through the port.
SFP 10G| On| The SFP port is negotiating packets at 10Gbps.
Off| The SFP port is not negotiating 10Gbps but may be passing traffic. Check the Link/Act LED to verify if packets are flowing through the port.
Link/Act| Blinking| Packets are flowing through the port.
Off| The port does not detect a connection.

Reset procedures

The reset button is on the back of the switch.
Note: The front and back power LEDs have the same behavior.

Step 5: Configuration

Araknis switches can be configured through OvrC or the local interface. The local interface is accessible using Orc’s web connect feature, typing the switch’s DHCP address into your browser’s address bar, or using the switch’s default IP address.

Configuring the switch in OvrC

OvrC provides remote device management, real-time notifications, and intuitive customer management, using your computer or mobile device. Setup is plug-and- play, with no port forwarding or DDNS address required.

To add this device to your OvrC account:

1. Connect the switch to the internet.
2. Log into OvrC (www.ovrc.com).
3. Scan the site using an OvrC Pro device, or add the switch manually by entering the MAC address and Service Tag.

Logging into the web interface

1. Log into the switch using the default credentials:
   Username| araknis
   ---|---
   Password| araknis
2. You must update the password after initial login.

Pro Tip: Strong passwords are long and unrelated to the client’s public details. For example, the pepperoni pizzas is stronger and easier to remember than P@ssword or the smiths.

Other access methods: DHCP IP address

The switch is configured to DHCP by default so that the DHCP server can assign an IP address when the switch is connected to the network (the DHCP server is usually the router). This address can be used for accessing the web interface.

Use one of these methods to find the IP address of the switch:

• Check the device list in OvrC.
• Check the client table on your router.
• Use a network scanner (e.g. Fing) to scan the network. The Araknis switch manufacturer field displays SnapAV.
• See the highlighted field in the Fing screenshot to the right for an example of an Araknis device being identified.

Accessing the switch using the default IP address

If the switch is not given a DHCP address, or needs to be accessed while not connected to a network, you can configure your computer’s network connection to access the switch using the default IP address, 192.168.20.254.

1. Connect your PC to the switch using an Ethernet cable.

2. Open the Control Panel and click Network and Internet.
   

3. Click Network and Sharing Center.
   

4. Click Change adapter settings.
   

5. Right-click the icon for the wired network connection, then left-click Properties.
   

6. Select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4), then click Properties
   

7. In the General tab, click Use the following IP address: and enter the IP address and subnet mask, then click OK.
   IP Address| 192.168.20.2
   ---|---
   Subnet Mask| 255.255.255.0

8. Open a browser and navigate to https://192.168.20.254/. Log in using the default credentials:
   Username| araknis
   ---|---
   Password| araknis

9. After configuring the switch, set your computer’s IPv4 Properties back to Obtain an IP address automatically, then click OK.
