1Port, system, and power status LEDs10/100/1000 BASE-T portsAll ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices provide 24 or 48 RJ45 ports that operate at 10 Mbps or 100Mbps half or full duplex, or at 1000 Mbps full duplex. Because all ports support automatic MDI orMDI-X operation, you can use straight-through cables for all network connections to PCs or servers,or to other devices or hubs. In addition, it is ideal (and preferred) to use straight-through cables forswitch-to-switch connections.Each port supports auto-negotiation, so the optimum transmission mode (half or full duplex), andthe data rate (10, 100, or 1000 Mbps) can be selected automatically. If a device connected to oneof these ports does not support auto-negotiation, the communication mode of the port can beconfigured manually.SFP or SFP+ fiber portsICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices contain four small form factor pluggable (SFP) ports (ports 1through 4). These ports reside on slot 2 of the stackable switch. These SFP or SFP+ ports can beused as uplink ports or stacking ports. The SFP ports support 1 Gbps port speeds. The SFP portsdo not support 10/100 Mbps speeds. The SFP+ ports support 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps port speeds. TheICX 6450 device has four active uplink and stacking ports on slot 2. The top row consists of ports 1and 3, and the bottom row consists of ports 2 and 4. By default, ports 1 and 3 are 10 Gbpsstacking ports. By default, without a license at bootup, ports 2 and 4 come up in 10 Gbps portspeed in an error disabled state. To enable ports 2 and 4 to 10 Gbps port speed, purchase theICX6450-2X10G-LIC-POD license. For more information about enabling ports 2 and 4 to 10 Gbpsport speed, refer to the FastIron Configuration Guide. The ICX6450-10G-LIC-POD license is notapplicable to ICX 6430 devices because there are no 10 Gbps ports on the device.For information about supported SFP and SFP+ transceivers, refer to the following Brocadewebsite:http://www.brocade.com/downloads/documents/data_sheets/product_data_sheets/Optics_DS.pdfPort, system, and power status LEDsICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices include LEDs that indicate the status of device components.Figure 15 and Figure 16 shows the location of the port status LEDs on the 24-port models and48-port models.FIGURE 15Port status LEDs on 24-port models11 Port status LEDs6 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

If you do not select a default port as the stacking port, both default ports will operateas stacking ports. For more information about using the stack-port command on ICX 6430 and ICX6450 devices, refer to to the FastIron Configuration Guide. If stacking is not enabled on the ports,Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 2153-1002505-03

2Connecting devices in a stackthen all four stacking ports can be used for data or uplink ports. By default, ICX 6430 and ICX 6450devices are not configured for trunked stacking. You can dynamically configure or remove astacking trunk port configuration using the stack-trunk command or the multi-trunk command. Formore information about these commands, refer to the FastIron Configuration Guide.ICX 6450 and ICX 6430 devices support hitless stacking switchover and failover. The Secure Setuputility is supported for ICX 6450 and ICX 6430 devices.ICX 6450 devices support up to eight units in a stack. ICX 6430 devices support up to four units ina stack. You cannot mix and match stacking units between ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices.Connecting ICX 6450 devices in a stackICX 6450 devices have 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps data ports and 4 ports with 1-Gbps or10-Gbps SFP+ fiber uplink and stacking ports. The top row consists of ports 1 and 3, and thebottom row consists of ports 2 and 4. By default, ports 1 and 3 are 10-Gbps stacking ports. Bydefault, without a license at bootup, ports 2 and 4 come up in 10-Gbps port speed in an errordisabled state. To enable ports 2 and 4 to 10-Gbps port speed, purchase theICX6450-2X10G-LIC-POD license. For more information about enabling ports 2 and 4 to 10-Gbpsport speed, refer to the FastIron Configuration Guide.Connecting ICX 6430 devices in a stackICX 6430 devices have 24 or 48 10/100/1000 Mbps data ports and 4 1-Gbps SFP fiber uplink andstacking ports. The default stacking ports are 1 and 3. The 4 1-Gbps ports are not eligible for anupgrade to 10-Gbps port speed. Trunk stacking configuration is supported for ICX 6430 devices.LAG configuration is supported for stacking or uplink ports when a pair of 1-Gbps ports areaggregated.Trunking configuration considerationsfor ICX 6430 and ICX 6430 devicesThe ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 stacking ports are grouped into two trunks. Follow these guidelines forconnecting and configuring the stacking ports:NOTEAfter enabling the ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 trunked stacking ports, it is recommended that you enterthe write memory command to save your configuration.• You can connect one or both ports in a trunk. Connecting both ports in a trunk increasesstacking bandwidth and provides resiliency.• You must enable stacking and connect cables properly for the stack to work. The active coppercable lengths for 1-Gbps ports are 1 m (3.2 ft) and 5 m (16.4 ft). The copper cable lengths for10-Gbps ports are 1 m (3.2 ft), 3 m (9.8 ft), and 5 m (16.4 ft).• The default stacking ports are always ports 1 and 3. You can trunk (or un-trunk) ports 1 to 2and or ports 3 to 4. One or both of the two sets of stacking ports can be trunked (orun-trunked).• When creating a trunk, the ports in the same column are always trunked. For ICX 6430devices, all stack ports must be at 1-Gbps port speed to enable trunking. For ICX 6450devices, all stack ports must be configured to 10-Gbps port speed to enable trunking.22 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

Connecting devices in a stack 2For example, you can connect ports 1/2/3 to 1/2/4 to form one trunk on one device, andports 2/2/1 to 2/2/2 to form a second trunk on another device.• If you connect both ports in a trunk, both ports must connect to both ports of one trunk onanother device.• ICX 6450 devices support up to eight units in a stack. You can mix and match stacking unitsbetween ICX 6450 48-port units and ICX 6450 24-port units.• You cannot mix and match stacking units between ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices with1-Gbps ports.• ICX 6430 devices support up to four units in a stack.ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 stack topologiesIn a linear stack topology, there is a single stack cable connection between each switch that carriestwo-way communications across the stack. In a ring stack topology, an extra cable is connectedbetween the top and bottom switches forming a “ring” or “closed-loop.” The closed-loop cableprovides a redundant path for the stack link, so if one link fails, stack communications can bemaintained.The following figures show stacking cabling configurations.Figure 27 shows an example of how the stack cables can be connected between switches if youonly connect one port per trunk. The figure shows both linear and ring stacking configurations. Theone port per trunk topology is the most commonly configured stacking topology and is supportedfor both ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 switches.Figure 28 shows how the stack cables are connected between switches in a linear stackingconfiguration for dual linking. The linear stacking topology is supported for both ICX 6430 and ICX6450 devices.Figure 29 shows how the stack cables are connected between switches in a ring stackingconfiguration. The ring stacking topology is supported for both ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices.Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 2353-1002505-03

Proprietary DC cables areused to connect any of the three EPS ports of the ICX 6400-EPS1500 to the rear EPS port of an ICX6430 or ICX 6450 device. For more information about connecting an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 deviceto the ICX 6400-EPS1500, refer to, “Connecting devices to the external power supply” on page 40.Each EPS port provides an external 12 V as redundant system power source (up to 65 W), and anexternal 54 V additional PoE power source (up to 370 W). When the ICX 6400-EPS1500 isconnected to an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 non-PoE device, it operates as an external redundant powersupply to the devices. In this case, only the 12 V of the EPS port is utilized by the device. The 54 VPoE power source is not used by the device.NOTEThe internal power supply of the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device is not a field-replaceable unit (FRU).The devices must be shut down by administrators for replacement.Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 2753-1002505-03

3ICX 6400-EPS1500 external power supplyBrocade recommends that you pay attention to the PoE or PoE+ port configuration of the devicewhen connecting to an ICX 6400-EPS1500. The internal power supply of each ICX 6430 or ICX6450 PoE or PoE+ device has a maximum number of PoE or PoE+ ports that are supported. Whenthe ICX 6400-EPS1500 is connected to an ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 PoE device to be used as aredundant backup power source, Brocade recommends that the maximum number of PoE or PoE+ports of the external power supply must not exceed the maximum number of PoE or PoE+ ports ofthe internal power supply capability of each ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device. For more informationabout the maximum number of PoE or PoE+ ports supported with the internal power supply of adevice, refer to Table 6 on page 11. For example, an ICX 6450-48P device with two EPS connectorsmust be connected to the ICX 6400-EPS1500. If you increase the maximum number of PoE orPoE+ ports that can be supported in each ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device, the ICX 6400-EPS1500cannot guarantee the devices are protected by the backup power source if the internal powersupply fails. The ICX 6400-EPS1500 will not have enough power to sustain the failed internal powersupply. In this case, the device can go down even with the ICX 6400-EPS1500 connected.The ICX 6400-EPS1500 has three DC output ports: EPS OUT 1, EPS OUT 2, and EPS OUT 3. Eachport supplies 65 W of +12 VDC of DC power, and 370 W of 54 VDC of PoE power. The ICX6400-EPS1500 is powered on when it is connected to an active AC power source.NOTEThe ICX 6400-EPS1500 DC cable is hot-pluggable. You must pay attention to the PoE power usageto ensure that the devices are protected before removing the EPS connectors or AC power cords.The following devices are supported by the Brocade ICX 6400-EPS1500:• ICX 6430-24P• ICX 6430-48• ICX 6430-48P• ICX 6450-24• ICX 6450-24P• ICX 6450-48• ICX 6450-48PNOTEThe ICX 6430-24 is not supported by the ICX 6400-EPS1500.Features and benefits• Supports up to three connections to ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices• Fixed internal power supply.• Total power rating is 1500 W.• Status LEDs located on the front panel.• Universal (100-240 V) AC line cord draws power from power outlet.• DC line cord provides power to the attached device.• Thermal overload protection prevents the ICX 6400-EPS1500 from overheating if a thermaloverload occurs.• Over-voltage protection shuts down an output channel if the voltage exceeds a presetthreshold.28 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

You can also use Brocade NetworkAdvisor to manage the device.FastIron Configuration Guide. Ch 1.Management Applications7 Secure access to the device. FastIron Configuration Guide, Ch 4Security AccessPC or terminal attachmentYou can access the CLI by attaching a serial cable to the console port. After you assign an IPaddress, you can access the system through Telnet, the Web management interface, or BrocadeNetwork Advisor.Complete the following steps to attach a management station to the console port.1. Connect a PC or terminal to the console (RJ45 serial port) of the device.To connect the console port to a DB-9 port, you need an RJ45 to DB-9 adapter.For information about locating the serial port, refer to “Network and management interfaces”on page 4,The serial port has an RJ45 connector. For port pinout information, refer to “Pinouts andsignalling” on page 75.NOTEYou must run a terminal emulation program on the PC.2. Launch the terminal emulation program and set the following session parameters:• Baud: 9600 bps• Data bits: 8• Parity: None• Stop bits: 1• Flow control: NoneThe console serial communication port serves as a connection point for management by a PC orSNMP workstation. When you establish the serial connection to the system, press Enter to displaythe CLI prompt in the terminal emulation window, as shown in the following example.Brocade>If you see this prompt, you are connected to the system and can proceed to “Passwordassignment” on page 45.You can customize the prompt by changing the system name. For more information, refer to theFastIron Configuration Guide.If you do not see the prompt, make sure the cable is securely connected to your PC and to theBrocade system.44 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

Password assignment 4Check the settings in your terminal emulation program. In addition to the previously configured sessionsettings, make sure the terminal emulation session is running on the same serial port youattached to the Brocade system.Password assignmentBy default, the CLI is not protected by passwords. To secure CLI access, Brocade stronglyrecommends assigning passwords. Refer to the FastIron Configuration Guide.NOTEYou cannot assign a password using the Web management interface. You can assign passwordsusing Brocade Network Advisor if an enable password for a Super User has been configured on thedevice.The CLI contains the following access levels:• User EXEC – The level you enter when you first start a CLI session. At this level, you can viewsome system information but you cannot configure system or port parameters.• Privileged EXEC – This level is also called the Enable level and can be secured by a password.You can perform tasks such as managing files on the flash module, saving the systemconfiguration to flash, and clearing caches at this level.• CONFIG – The configuration level. This level allows you to configure the system IP address andconfigure switching and routing features. To access the CONFIG mode, you must already belogged in to the Privileged EXEC level.You can set the following levels of Enable passwords:• Super User – Allows complete read-and-write access to the system. This is generally for systemadministrators and is the only password level that allows you to configure passwords.NOTEYou must set a Super User password before you can set other types of passwords.• Port Configuration – Allows read-and-write access for specific ports but not for global(system-wide) parameters.• Read-Only – Allows access to the Privileged EXEC mode and CONFIG mode but only with readaccess.Assigning passwordsComplete the following steps to set passwords.NOTEDepending on the device you purchased, and the code (Layer 2 or Layer 3) loaded on your system,the router prompt is displayed accordingly. For example, for an ICX 6450-48P device running Layer3 code on the device, the router prompt displays ICX6450-48P Router> at the CLI level.1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter the following command to change to the Privileged EXECmode:Brocade> enable2.

Enter the following command to set the Super User password:Brocade(config)# enable super-user-password joeNOTEYou must set the Super User password before you can set other types of passwords.4. Enter the following commands to set the port configuration and read-only passwords:Brocade(config)# enable port-config-password johnBrocade(config)# enable read-only-password samNOTEIf you forget your Super User password, refer to “Recovering from a lost password” on page 46.Syntax: enable super-user-password | read-only-password |port-config-password Passwords can be up to 32 characters long.Recovering from a lost passwordBy default, the CLI does not require passwords. However, if a password has been configured for thedevice but the password has been lost, you can regain Super User access to the device using thefollowing procedure.NOTERecovery from a lost password requires direct access to the serial port and a system reset.1. Start a CLI session over the serial interface to the Brocade device.2. Reboot the device.3. While the system is booting, before the initial system prompt appears, enter b to enter the bootmonitor mode.4. Enter no password. (You cannot abbreviate this command.)5. Enter boot. This command causes the device to bypass the system password check.After the console prompt reappears, assign a new password.Syntax: [no] passwordSyntax: bootIP address configurationYou must configure at least one IP address using the serial connection to the CLI before you canmanage the system using the other management interfaces.Brocade devices support both classical IP network masks (Class A, B, and C subnet masks, and soon) and Classless Interdomain Routing (CIDR) network prefix masks.46 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

IP address configuration 4• To enter a classical IP network mask, enter the mask in IP address format. For example, enter“209.157.22.99 255.255.255.0” for an IP address with a Class C subnet mask.• To enter a prefix number for a network mask, enter a forward slash (/) and the number of bitsin the mask immediately after the IP address. For example, enter “209.157.22.99/24” for anIP address that has a network mask with 24 significant (“mask”) bits.By default, the CLI displays network masks in classical IP address format (for example,255.255.255.0). You can change the display to the prefix format. Refer to the FastIronConfiguration Guide.Devices running Layer 2 softwareNOTEThe ICX 6430 device supports only switch code. The ICX 6450 device supports both switch androuter code.Use the following procedure to configure an IP address on a device running Layer 2 software.1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.Brocade> enable2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, and then press Enter. Thiscommand erases the factory test configuration if still present.Brocade# erase startup-configCAUTIONUse the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on asystem you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentallydo erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save therunning configuration to the startup-config file.3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command:Brocade# configure terminal (Privileged EXEC Level)Brocade(config)# (Global CONFIG Level)4. Configure the IP address and mask for the device.Brocade(config)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.05.

4IP address configurationDevices running Layer 3 softwareBefore attaching equipment to a Brocade ICX 6450 router, you must assign an interface IP addressto the subnet on which the router will be located. You must use the serial connection to assign thefirst IP address. For subsequent addresses, you also can use the CLI through Telnet or the Webmanagement interface.By default, you can configure up to 24 IP interfaces on each port, virtual interface, and loopbackinterface. You can increase this amount to up to 64 IP subnet addresses per port by increasing thesize of the subnet-per-interface table.The following procedure shows how to add an IP address and mask to a router port.1. At the opening CLI prompt, enter enable.Brocade> enable2. Enter the following command at the CLI Privileged EXEC level prompt, and then press Enter.This command erases the factory test configuration if still present.Brocade# erase startup-configCAUTIONUse the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this command on asystem you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If you accidentallydo erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memory command to save therunning configuration to the startup-config file.3. Access the configuration level of the CLI by entering the following command.Brocade# configure terminalPrivileged EXEC LevelBrocade(config)#Global CONFIG Level4.

In the example in step 4, you could enter ip address 192.22.3.44/24.Syntax: [no] ip address [secondary] or /[secondary]Use the secondary parameter if you have already configured an IP address within the samesubnet on the interface.Configuring IP parameters for devices running Layer 3 softwareThis section describes how to configure IP parameters for devices running Layer 3 software.Configuring IP addressesYou can configure an IP address on the following types of Layer 3 interfaces:48 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

IP address configuration 4• Ethernet port• Virtual routing interface (also called a Virtual Ethernet or “VE”)• Loopback interfaceBy default, you can have up to 24 IP addresses on each interface, but you can increase this numberto 128 IP addresses.NOTEOnce you configure a virtual routing interface on a VLAN, you cannot configure Layer 3 interfaceparameters on individual ports in the VLAN. Instead, you must configure the parameters on thevirtual routing interface itself.Assigning an IP address to an Ethernet portEnter the following commands to assign an IP address to port 1/1/1.Brocade(config)# interface ethernet 1/1/1Brocade(config-if-1/1/1)# ip address 192.45.6.1 255.255.255.0You also can enter the IP address and mask in CIDR format, as follows:Brocade(config-if-1/1/1)# ip address 192.45.6.1/24Syntax: [no] ip address or /Assigning an IP address to a loopback interfaceLoopback interfaces are always up, regardless of the states of physical interfaces. They can addstability to the network because they are not subject to route flap problems that can occur due tounstable links between a Layer 3 device and other devices. You can configure up to four loopbackinterfaces on a Layer 3 device.You can add up to 24 IP addresses to each loopback interface.NOTEIf you configure the device to use a loopback interface to communicate with a BGP4 neighbor, youmust also configure a loopback interface on the neighbor and configure the neighbor to use thatloopback interface to communicate with the Brocade device.To add a loopback interface, enter commands such as those shown in the following example:Brocade(config)# exitBrocade(config)# interface loopback 1Brocade(config-lbif-1)# ip address 10.0.0.1/24Syntax: interface loopback The parameter specifies the virtual interface number. You can specify from 1 through themaximum number of virtual interfaces supported on the device. To display the maximum numberof virtual interfaces supported on the device, enter the show default values command.Assigning an IP address to a virtual routing interfaceA virtual interface is a logical port associated with a Layer 3 Virtual LAN (VLAN) configured on aLayer 3 device. You can configure routing parameters on the virtual interface to enable the Layer 3device to route protocol traffic from one Layer 3 VLAN to the other, without using an external router.Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 4953-1002505-03

4Connecting network devicesNOTEThe device uses the lowest MAC address on the device (the MAC address of port 1 or 1/1/1) as theMAC address for all ports within all virtual interfaces you configure on the device.Enter commands similar to the following to add a virtual interface to a VLAN and configure an IPaddress on the interface.Brocade(config)# vlan 2 name IP-Subnet_1.1.2.1/24Brocade(config-vlan-2)# untag 1/1/1 to 1/1/4Brocade(config-vlan-2)# router-interface ve1Brocade(config-vlan-2)# interface ve1Brocade(config-vif-1)# ip address 1.1.2.1/24The first two commands in this example create a Layer 3 protocol-based VLAN named“IP-Subnet_1.1.2.1/24” and add a range of untagged ports to the VLAN. The router-interfacecommand creates virtual interface 1 as the routing interface for the VLAN. The last two commandschange to the interface configuration level for the virtual interface and assign an IP address to theinterface.Syntax: router-interface ve Syntax: interface ve Deleting an IP addressEnter a command similar to the following to delete an IP address.Brocade(config-if-1/1/1)# no ip address 1.1.2.1This command deletes IP address 1.1.2.1. You do not need to enter the subnet mask.To delete all IP addresses from an interface, enter the following command.Brocade(config-if-1/1/1)# no ip address *Syntax: no ip address | *Connecting network devicesBrocade devices support connections to other vendors’ routers, switches, and hubs, as well otherBrocade devices.ConnectorsFor port pinouts, refer to “Pinouts and signalling” on page 75.50 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

If the hub is equipped withan uplink port, it requires a straight-through cable instead of a crossover cable.NOTEThe 802.3ab standard (automatic MDI or MDIX detection) calls for automatic negotiation of theconnection between two 1000Base-T ports. In this case, a straight-through cable may work just aswell as a crossover cable.

Refer to “Connecting a network device to a fiber port” on page 52.Automatic MDI or MDIX detectionAll 10/100 and 1000 Mbps Ethernet copper ports on the devices support automatic MediaDependent Interface (MDI) and Media Dependent Interface Crossover (MDIX) detection. Thisfeature is enabled on all 10/100 and Mbps copper ports by default. For each port, you can disableauto-MDI or MDIX, designate the port as an MDI port, or designate the port as an MDIX port.For more information about this feature and how to configure it, refer to the FastIron ConfigurationGuide.Connecting a network device to a fiber portFor direct attachment from the device to a Gbps NIC, switch, or router, using a fiber-optictransceiver, you need fiber cabling with an LC connector.To connect the device to another network device using a fiber port, you must perform the followingtasks:• Install a fiber-optic transceiver (SFP or SFP+).• Cable the fiber-optic transceiver.For instructions on installing fiber-optic transceivers, refer to “Installing a new copper or fiber-optictransceiver” on page 67.52 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

Troubleshooting network connections 4For instructions on cabling a fiber-optic transceiver, refer to “Cabling a fiber-optic transceiver” onpage 68.For instructions on cleaning a fiber-optic module, refer to “Cleaning the fiber-optic connectors” onpage 68.Troubleshooting network connections• For the indicated port, verify that both ends of the cabling (at the device and the connecteddevice) are snug.• Verify that the device and the connected device are both powered on and operating correctly.• Verify that you have used the correct cable type for the connection:- For twisted-pair connections to an end node, use straight-through cabling.- For fiber-optic connections, verify that the transmit port on the device is connected to thereceive port on the connected device, and that the receive port on the device is connectedto the transmit port on the connected device.• Use the CLI to verify that the port has not been disabled through a configuration change. If youhave configured an IP address on the device, you also can use the Web management interfaceor Brocade Network Advisor.• If the other procedures do not resolve the problem, try using a different port or a differentcable.• If a 1-Gbps optic transceiver is inserted into a ICX 6450 device, you must configure the portusing the speed-duplex 1000-full-master command at the interface level.Using VCT to diagnose a cableThe ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 devices support Virtual Cable Test (VCT) technology. VCT technologyenables you to diagnose a conductor (wire or cable) by sending a pulsed signal into the conductor,and then examining the reflection of that pulse. This method of cable analysis is referred to as TimeDomain Reflectometry (TDR). By examining the reflection, the device can detect and report cablestatistics such as local and remote link pair, cable length, and link status.Configuration notes• This feature is supported on copper ports only. It is not supported on fiber ports.• The port to which the cable is connected must be enabled when you issue the command todiagnose the cable. If the port is disabled, the command is rejected.• If the port is operating at 100 Mbps half-duplex, the TDR test on one pair will fail.• If the remote pair is set to forced 100 Mbps, any change in MDI or MDIX may cause the deviceto interpret the Multilevel Threshold-3 (MLT-3) as a reflected pulse, in which case, the devicewill report a faulty condition. In this case, Brocade recommends that you run the TDR test a fewtimes for accurate results.Command syntaxTo diagnose a cable using TDR, enter a command such as the following at the Privileged EXEC levelof the CLI.Brocade# phy cable-diag tdr 1/1/1Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 5353-1002505-03

You can remove an SFPtransceiver from a slot and replace it with a new one while the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device ispowered on and running.This section provides information about the following tasks:• Removing a copper or fiber-optic module• Installing a new copper or fiber-optic transceiver• Cabling a fiber-optic module• Cleaning a fiber-optic moduleRemoving a copper or fiber-optic moduleYou can remove a copper or fiber SFP transceiver from a slot while the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450device is powered on and running.Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 6553-1002505-03

6Copper or fiber-optic module replacementWhile removing a copper or fiber-optic module, be sure to wear an ESD wrist strap with a plug thatcan be inserted in the ESD connector on the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device.DANGERFor safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megaohm resistor.To remove a copper or fiber-optic module from an SFP slot, do the following.1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by attaching the clip end to a metal surface(such as an equipment rack).2. Disconnect the copper or fiber cable connector from the port connector.3. Unlock the copper or fiber-optic module by pulling the bail latch forward, away from the frontpanel of the module. This unlocks the module from the front panel. Refer to Figure 43.NOTEOn 1000Base-SX ports, the bail latch is enclosed in a black sleeve, and on 1000Base-LX ports,the bail latch is enclosed in a blue sleeve.FIGURE 43Unlocking the bail latch11 Bail latchNOTEThe bail latch may be attached to either the top or the bottom of the SFP transceiver.4. Grasp the bail latch and pull the copper or fiber-optic module out of the port. Refer toFigure 44.FIGURE 44Removing the fiber-optic module5. Store the copper or fiber-optic module in a safe, static-free place or in an anti-static bag.6. Install a new copper or fiber-optic transceiver in the port. For information about performing thistask, refer to “Installing a new copper or fiber-optic transceiver” on page 67.66 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

Copper or fiber-optic module replacement 6Installing a new copper or fiber-optic transceiverYou can install a new fiber-optic transceiver in an SFP or SFP+ slot while the device is powered onand running.While installing a transceiver, wear an ESD wrist strap with a plug that can be inserted in the ESDconnector on the ICX 6430 or ICX 6450 device.NOTEIf the E1MG-TX SFP transceiver is inserted into the ICX 6450 device, the link may go down on thefiber ports. This is seen during bootup or speed change from 10-Gbps to 1-Gbps port speed. Theworkaround is to disable the port and then re-enable the port through the CLI, or unplug and plug inthe cable.DANGERFor safety reasons, the ESD wrist strap should contain a series 1 megohm resistor.DANGERAll fiber-optic interfaces use Class 1 lasers.Perform the following steps to install a fiber-optic transceiver.1. Put on the ESD wrist strap and ground yourself by attaching the clip end to a metal surface(such as an equipment rack) to act as the ground.2. Remove the new transceiver from the protective packaging.3. Gently insert the transceiver into the slot until it clicks into place, as illustrated in Figure 45.Transceivers are keyed to prevent incorrect insertion.FIGURE 45Installing a transceiver11 TransceiverBrocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 6753-1002505-03

6Copper or fiber-optic module replacementCabling a fiber-optic transceiverPerform the following steps to cable a fiber-optic transceiver.1. Remove the protective covering from the fiber-optic port connectors and store the covering forfuture use.NOTEBefore cabling a fiber-optic transceiver, Brocade strongly recommends cleaning the cableconnectors and the port connectors. For more information, refer to “Cleaning the fiber-opticconnectors” on page 68.2. Gently insert the cable connector (a tab on each connector should face upward) into thetransceiver connector until the tabs lock into place.3. Observe the link and active LEDs to determine if the network connections are functioningproperly. For more information about the LED indicators, refer to Table 12.Cleaning the fiber-optic connectorsTo avoid problems with the connection between the fiber-optic transceiver (SFP, SFP+, ormini-GBIC) and the fiber cable connectors, Brocade strongly recommends cleaning bothconnectors each time you disconnect and reconnect them. Dust can accumulate in the connectorsand cause problems, such as reducing the optic launch power.To clean the fiber cable connectors, Brocade recommends using a fiber-optic reel-type cleaner.When not using an SFP connector, make sure to keep the protective covering in place.68 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03

Ainsi, il yaura un circuit redondant en cas de panne d’un des circuits.Use un circuito derivado separado para cada cordón de alimentación de CA, con lo que seproporcionará redundancia en caso de que uno de los circuitos falle.Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide 8553-1002505-03

BCautionsCAUTIONVORSICHTMISE EN GARDEPRECAUCIÓNEnsure that the device does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-currentprotection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply circuits, add the ampere(amp) ratings of all devices installed on the same circuit as the device. Compare this totalwith the rating limit for the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed onthe devices near the input power connectors.Stromkreise, Verdrahtung und Überlastschutz dürfen nicht durch das Gerät überbelastetwerden. Addieren Sie die Nennstromleistung (in Ampere) aller Geräte, die am selbenStromkreis wie das Gerät installiert sind. Somit können Sie feststellen, ob die Gefahreiner Überbelastung der Versorgungsstromkreise vorliegt. Vergleichen Sie diese Summemit der Nennstromgrenze des Stromkreises. Die Höchstnennströme (in Ampere) stehennormalerweise auf der Geräterückseite neben den Eingangsstromanschlüssen.Assurez-vous que le dispositif ne risque pas de surcharger les circuits d'alimentation, lecâblage et la protection de surintensité. Pour déterminer le risque de surcharge descircuits d'alimentation, additionnez l'intensité nominale (ampères) de tous les dispositifsinstallés sur le même circuit que le dispositif en question. Comparez alors ce total avec lalimite de charge du circuit. L'intensité nominale maximum en ampères est généralementimprimée sur chaque dispositif près des connecteurs d'entrée d'alimentation.Verifique que el instrumento no sobrecargue los circuitos de corriente, el cableado y laprotección para sobrecargas. Para determinar la posibilidad de sobrecarga en loscircuitos de suministros, añada las capacidades nominales de corriente (amp) de todoslos instrumentos instalados en el mismo circuito que el instrumento. Compare esta sumacon el límite nominal para el circuito. Las capacidades nominales de corriente máximasestán generalmente impresas en los instrumentos, cerca de los conectores de corrientede entrada.CAUTIONVORSICHTMISE EN GARDEPRECAUCIÓNUse the erase startup-config command only for new systems. If you enter this commandon a system you have already configured, the command erases the configuration. If youaccidentally do erase the configuration on a configured system, enter the write memorycommand to save the running configuration to the startup-config file.Verwenden Sie den Befehl "Erase startup-config" (Löschen Startup-Konfig) nur für neueSysteme. Wenn Sie diesen Befehl in ein bereits konfiguriertes System eingeben, löschtder Befehl die Konfiguration. Falls Sie aus Versehen die Konfiguration eines bereitskonfigurierten Systems löschen, geben Sie den Befehl "Write Memory" (Speicherschreiben) ein, um die laufende Konfiguration in der Startup-Konfig-Datei zu speichern.N'utilisez la commande erase startup-config que pour les nouveaux systèmes. Si vousentrez cette commande sur un système que vous avez déjà configuré, elle efface laconfiguration. Si vous effacez la configuration par accident sur un système configuré,entrez la commande write memory pour enregistrer la configuration actuelle dans lefichier startup-config.Use el comando erase startup-config (borrar configuración de inicio) para sistemasnuevos solamente. Si usted introduce este comando en un sistema que ya haconfigurado, el comando borrará la configuración. Si usted borra accidentalmente laconfiguración en un sistema ya configurado, introduzca el comando write memory(escribir memoria) para guardar la configuración en ejecución en el archivostartup-config.86 Brocade ICX 6430 and ICX 6450 Stackable Switches Hardware Installation Guide53-1002505-03
