MLAG, VXLAN

Introduction

QSFPTEK S7600-48Y8C L3 aggregation switch is designed with 48x 25G SFP28 ports and 8x 100G QSFP28 uplinks. This network switch delivers a 4 Tbps switching capacity and 2976 Mpps forwarding rate to meet high-performance aggregation layer requirements. With 2 hot-swap AC power supplies (1+1 redundancy) and 4 hot-swap smart fans, the switch provides hardware redundancy for high reliability. As a layer 3+ managed switch, it supports full layer 3 features (static routing, RIP, OSPF, BGP, etc.) and advanced data center features such as MLAG for high-reliability and VXLAN, NVGRE, GENEVE tunnel technology for virtual networking.

S7600 series Aggregation switches support remote direct memory access (RDMA), which over other network APIs for lower latency, CPU load and higher bandwidth. This 48-port 25G switch caters to the Ethernet aggregation platform to HCI (hyper-converged infrastructure), cloud networking, data center, and enterprise applications.

Mounting the Switch

Connecting the Power

• Plug the AC power cord to the switch power port on the back rear.
• Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power source equipment.

Connecting the SFP28 Ports

• Insert the SFP28 module into the SFP28 port.
• Plug a fiber patch cable into the SFP28 transceiver.
• Connect the other end of the fiber to the device that you want to realize data communication.

Connecting the QSFP28 Port

• Insert the QSFP28 module into the QSFP28 port.
• Plug a fiber patch cable to the QSFP28 transceiver.
• Connect the other end of the fiber to the device that you want to realize data communication.

Connecting the Management Ports

Connecting the Console Port

• Prepare a console cable.
• Insert the RJ45 connector of the console cable into the console port on the switch.
• Connect the D89 female connector on the other end of the console cable to the serial port on the computer host.

Connecting the ETH Port

• Prepare a standard RJ45 Ethernet patch cable.
• Insert one end of the RJ45 Ethernet patch cable into the computer RJ45 port.
• Connect the RJ45 connector on the other end of the patch cable to the ETH port on the

Connecting the USB Port

• Prepare a Universal Serial Bus (USB) flash disk.
• Insert the USB to the switch USB port.

Configuring the Switch

Configuring the Switch Using the Web-based Interface

Step 1: Connect your computer to the switch using an Ethernet cable and open a web browser.
Step 2: Set the IP address of the computer to 192.168.1.x (where “x” is any number from 2 to 254) and the subnet mask to 255.255.255.0.

Step 3: Open a web browser and type http://192.168.1.2 in the address bar. Enter the default username and password (admin/admin).
Step 4: Click sign-in to access the web-based configuration page.

Configuring the Switch Using the Console Port

Step 1: Use the console cable to directly connect the switch console port to your computer.
Step 2: Launch the terminal simulation software such as Hyper Terminal on the computer.
Step 3: Configure the parameters of the terminal emulation software as follows: 115200 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control.

Step 4: Enter the default username and password (admin/admin).

Troubleshooting

Loading Failure Processing

After loading fails, the system will keep running in the original version. At this time, users should refer to the following steps to re-check:

1. if physical port connections are good first. If some ports are not connected, then re-connect them to ensure that physical connections are correct, and begin re-loading.
2. If physical connections are correct, then check the loading process information displayed on the super terminal to verify if there are input errors. If there are input errors, correct them and re-load. For example, when using TFTP protocol, we enter incorrect IP addresses of the Server and Switch, name of loading software, do not specify the correct working path of the correct TFTP server, and so on.
3. if physical connections are good, and there are no input errors in the loading process but the loading fails finally, please contact agents for help.

User Password Lost

If the system password is lost or forgotten, the following method can be used to reset the password:

1. Enter uBoot operation mode; see Chapter 5 for how to enter;
2. Input the boot_flash_nopass command to start the system in uBoot mode;

Note: After using the boot_flash_nopass command, the system will clear up the startup-config files; before starting this operation, the startup-config files will be stored in flash:/startup-config.conf.old file.

Power System Troubleshooting

The switch can judge if its power system is faulty according to the PWR indicator on the front panel: when the power system works normally, the PWR indicator shall always keep lighting; when the PWR indicator is off, please check if:

1. The power line of the switch is connected correctly.
2. The EPS of the switch matches the power required by the switch.

Configuration System Troubleshooting

After the switch is powered on, if the system is normal, the startup information will be displayed on the configuration terminal; If no display information on the configuration terminal appears, maybe the configuration system is faulty, please check if:

1. The power is normal.
2. The cable of the configuration port (Console) is properly connected.

If no problems have been found after the above checks, it is possible that the configuration cable is faulty or the parameter setting of the terminal (such as a super terminal) is incorrect, please check accordingly.

3. Troubleshooting for the terminal displaying hashes:

If the configuration terminal displays hashes, probably the parameter setting of the terminal (such as a super terminal) is incorrect Please confirm the parameter setting of the terminal (such as HyperTerminal): baud rate: 115200, data bit: 8, parity: no, stop bit: 1, flow control: NA, selecting terminal emulation: VT100.
