MICROSENS Ruggedized 19 Inch Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 10G Uplink
Ports
Quick Start Guide
Commissioning the Ruggedized 19’’ Gigabit Ethernet Switch with 10G Uplink
Ports
Aim of this Quick Start Guide
This quick start guide describes the commissioning of the switch (mechanical
handling) incl. connecting power supply and network link, resetting to factory
settings and activating the network management access.
For further documentation see the reference manual and the MICROSENS homepage
under www.microsens.com.
This guide will help you with
- connecting the power supply and commissioning the device,
- understanding the status LEDs and
- setting up the network management access.
Note:
For comprehensive information about configuring the device please refer to the
reference manual.
WARNING:
This equipment is compliant with Class A of EN55032. In a residential
environment this equipment may cause radio interference!

Connecting the Power Supply
Note:
Ground the switch housing with the grounding screw on the front of the housing
(s. Fig. 1,
The switch is powered by a 24…57 VDC power connection (s. Fig. 1, ). For
redundancy or load sharing reasons it is possible to connect a second power
source using the same voltage (s. Fig. 1,). If one source fails, the
alternative source takes over the power supply without interruption.
If the switch is used to power further equipment (role “Power Sourcing
Equipment – PSE”), it requires a minimum
input voltage:
1. Input voltage | < 44 VDC: | PSE feature disabled (neither PoE nor PoE+) |
---|---|---|
2. Input voltage | 44 – 54 VDC: | PoE possible |
3. Input voltage | ≥ 50 VDC: | PoE and PoE+ possible |
24…57 VDC Supply
The connectors are labelled “Power 1” and “Power 2” (s. Fig. 1, and ) and are equipped with 2-pin plug connectors. Please observe the polarity (terminal labelling +/-).
Starting Up
After connection to the power supply, the switch starts automatically and is ready for operation after approx. 90 s. Connect the switch to your local network segment using a suitable connector cable.
Factory Settings
Note:
Please note that the factory settings may change with future firmware versions
(s. section 8). For this reason we recommend that you check the release notes
for information about any changes to the factory settings before carrying out
a firmware update.
The switch starts with its factory settings:
- Interfaces:
- RS232: Enabled
- SSH: Disabled
- Telnet: Disabled
- SNMP: Disabled
- Web Manager: Enabled
- User level: as per “Preset User Level for Management Access” (s. section 4)
- IP configuration: DHCP for VLAN 1, no preset IP
- Ethernet RJ-45 ports: Ports 1…24: 10/100/1000Base-T operation enabled in VLAN 1
- PoE+ function: Ports 1…24: enabled
- SFP ports: Ports 1…4: SFP inserted: 1000Base-X operation
SFP+ inserted: 10GBase-X operation
Preset User Level for Management Access
The following user level (role with specific access rights) is preset:
User Password Access Comments
admin admin Full access rights This user can adjust all settings of the switch.
Notifications
Status LEDs (s. Fig. 1,
- “Power 1/2”
- Off – Switch
- Green – Power supply 1/2
- Red blinking – Power supply 1/2 missing or
Note:
“Power 1/2” is signalled “Red” only, if at least one power supply is connected to either “Power 1” or “Power 2” and functional.
- “Status”
- Off ‒ Direct after power on (i.e. the operation system is not loaded yet)
- Green – As soon as the operation system is initialised and
- “Alarm”
- Off – Ring domain 0 not
- Green – Ring domain 0 enabled, role “Transit (Slave)” detected, no
- Red – Ring domain 0 enabled, role “Transit (Slave)” detected, error
- Green blinking – Ring domain 0 enabled, role “Master” detected, no
- Red blinking – Ring domain 0 enabled, role “Master” detected, error
Port Status LEDs

- lnk (Link)
- Off ‒ Link down, no
- Green ‒ Link up
Green blinking ‒ Port sending or receiving data.
Reset Button
On the front of the housing there is a reset button (s. Fig. 1, ), which is accessible with a thin object. Depending on the duratioan, pressing this button leads to one of the following actions when released:
- 1 s – Restarts the switch.
The running configuration (switch and management) remains unchanged. The reboot takes approx. 90 s.
- longer than 10 s – Switch is resetting on factory defaults and renews the SSH default keys as well as self-signed
The reboot is extended by approx. 2 minutes.
Note:
Additionally, status messages are issued via the serial port.
Access for Network Management
IP Address Assignment
In order for management over the network to function, the switch requires
valid IP parameters (IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway). These are
obtained automatically via DHCP (factory-setting, s. section 3). If you do not
use DHCP in your network, you can setup the IP parameters via serial port
access.
Note:
Via serial port access it is possible to setup additional management
interfaces (Telnet, SSH, SNMP etc.). For further information please refer to
section 7.3 or the reference manual.
Serial Interface
-
Connect your computer via console cable to the serial port of the switch (s. Fig. 1,
-
Open a console program and setup the following connection parameters:
- Speed: 115200 bit/s
- Data bits: 8
- Stop bits: 1
- Parity bit: none
- Flow control: none
-
Enter the credentials of the preset user (username: admin, password: admin, s. section 4) and click the button “Enter”.
-
Using the following console commands will setup the IP parameters for interface “VLAN 1”:
console#configure terminal
console(config)#interface vlan 1
console(config-if)#ip default-gateway
console(config-if)#ip address
console(config-if)#exit
console(config)#exit
console#
Note:
The assignment of a static IP address disables the DHCP client for the respective interface (here: VLAN 1). -
To ensure the static IP address remains valid after reboot, you have to save it with the console command write memory.
-
Leave the console session with the command exit.
Activation of Additional Management Interfaces
Telnet
To enable the Telnet interface, open a console session and enter the following
commands:
console#configure terminal
console(config)#ip telnet server
console(config)#exit
Afterwards the Telnet login with the preset user credentials (s. section 4) is possible.
SSH
To enable the SSH interface, open a console session and enter the following
commands:
console#configure terminal
console(config)#ip ssh server
console(config)#ip ssh password-auth
console(config)#exit
Afterwards the SSH login with the preset user credentials (s. section 4) is
possible.
SNMP
To enable the SNMPv1/v2c Interface with standard community strings “public”
(read only) and “private” (read/write), open a console session and enter the
following commands:
console#configure terminal
console(config)#snmp-server server
console(config)#snmp-server community public ro
console(config)#snmp-server community private rw
console(config)#exit
Note:
For information about enabling SNMPv3 please refer to the reference manual.

Web Manager
As soon as the switch obtains an IP address via DHCP, the access via Web
Manager is possible. Enter the URL
(incl. the assigned IP address) into your internet browser’s address bar:
For access via HTTPS: https://
Before accessing the Web Manager your internet browser possibly may ask you to
confirm security warnings due to a self-signed security certificate. Please
confirm the respective security exception rule.
For access via HTTP: http://
Note:
The Web Manager only allows restricted access to system parameters. Use the
management access via Telnet, SSH or serial port for full management access.
