Introducing the Switch  
The HP ProCurve Series 6600 Switches are top-of-rack data center switches  
that support advanced Layer three switching, and have reversible front-to-  
back airflow, and two hot-swappable power supplies. These switches can be  
used to build high-speed switched networks between servers in the data  
center.

HP ProCurve 6600-24G-4XG Switch (J9264A)  
HP ProCurve 6600-24XG Switch (J9265A)  
Throughout this manual, these switches will be referred to as the Series 6600  
Switches.

Introducing the Switch  
The 6600-24G Switch has 20 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports, four  
dual-personality ports—either auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 or mini-  
GBIC (Small Form-Factor Pluggable (SFP)) ports.  
The 6600-24G-4XG Switch has the same ports as the Switch 6600-24G plus it  
also has 4 SFP+ slots for 10-GbE connectivity. The specification for SFP+  
defines the physical and electrical characteristics of this form-factor (size and  
shape). The form-factor is identical to SFP, but the SFP+ is a 10-Gigabit  
Ethernet transceiver.  
The 6600-24XG Switch has 24 SFP+ slots. All slots are 10-GbE.

Introducing the Switch  
These switches are designed to be used primarily in data center environments  
mounted in equipment racks along with the servers they are connected to.  
These switches can directly connect servers to other servers or backbone  
LANs to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and can build a  
switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs, other  
switches, or routers. In addition, the Series 6600 Switches offer full network  
management capabilities.

Network Ports  
On the 6600-24G and 6600-24G-4XG Switches there are 24 auto-sensing  
10/100/1000Base-T ports. All these ports have the “Auto MDIX” feature,  
which means you can use either straight-through or crossover twisted-  
pair cables to connect any network devices to the switch.  
On the 6600-24G and 6600-24G-4XG Switches there are four dual-person-  
ality ports. Use either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 connector, or install a  
supported ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic connections.  
Dual-Personality Port Operation. By default, the RJ-45 connectors are  
enabled. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, it is enabled and the associ-  
ated RJ-45 connector is disabled and cannot be used. If the mini-GBIC is  
removed, the associated RJ-45 port is automatically re-enabled.  
On the 6600-24XG Switch there are 24 SFP+ 10-GbE ports. SFP+ ports  
only support 10 Gbps operation; 1 Gbps mini-GBICs are not supported in  
any SFP+ port.

Blinking, the port has failed its self test. The Fault and Self Test LEDs will  
be Blinking simultaneously.  
If the Activity (Act) indicator LED is lit, each port LED displays activity  
information for the associated port—it flickers as network traffic is  
received and transmitted through the port.  
If the Full Duplex (FDx) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs light for those  
ports that are operating in full duplex.  
If the Speed (Spd) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs behave as follows  
to indicate the connection speed for the port:  
Off = 10 Mbps  
Blinking = 100 Mbps (the Blinking behavior is a repeated on/off cycle  
once every 0.8 sec.)  
On = 1000 Mbps  
The Usr Mode LED indicates the port is displaying customer-specified  
information.

Power Connector  
The Series 6600 Switches do not have a power switch; they are powered on  
when connected to an active AC power source. These switches automatically  
adjust to any voltage between 100--127 and 200--240 volts and either 50 or 60  
Hz. There are no voltage range settings required.  
Switch Features  
The features of the Series 6600 Switches include:  
24 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports with Auto-MDIX or 24  
SFP+ 10-GbE ports. The 6600-24G-4XG has only 4 SFP+ 10-GbE ports.  
Four dual-personality ports—either the auto sensing 10/100/1000Base-T  
RJ-45 or the mini-GBIC can be used for each port. The 6600-24XG does  
not have these dual-personality ports.  
An auxiliary (USB) port for processing a USB command file.  
Plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the  
network cables to active network devices and your switched network is  
operational.

Introducing the Switch  
Switch Features  
The 6600-24G and the 6600-24G-4XG supports IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDIX  
on all 10/100/1000 twisted-pair ports, meaning that all connections can  
be made using straight-through twisted-pair cables. Cross-over  
cables are not required, although they will also work. The pin operation  
ofeach port isautomatically adjusted for the attacheddevice: ifthe switch  
detects that another switch or hub is connected to the port, it configures  
the port as MDI; if the switch detects that an end-node device is connected  
to the port, it configures the port as MDI-X.  
Automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000-  
address forwarding table, (with configurable address aging value).  
Automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for the 10/100/1000 RJ-45  
ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices—the mini-GBIC  
ports always operate at full duplex.  
Easy management of the switch through several available interfaces:  
console interface—a full featured, easy to use, VT-100 terminal  
interface that is especially good for out-of-band switch management  
or for Telnet access to the switch.  
web browser interface—an easy to use built-in graphical interface  
that can be accessed from common web browsers.  
ProCurve Manager—an SNMP-based, graphical network manage-  
ment tool that you can use to manage your entire network. This  
product is included with your new switch.  
Support for the Spanning Tree Protocol to eliminate network loops  
Support for up to 2048 IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs so you can divide  
the attached end nodes into logical groupings that fit your business needs.  
Support for many advanced features to enhance network performance—  
for a description, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which  
is on the ProCurve Web site www.procurve.com/manuals.

Installation Precautions:  
Follow these precautions when installing the Series 6600 Switches.  
WA R N I N G  
The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it  
from becoming unstable and/or falling over.  
Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as  
possible, with the heaviest devicesat thebottom and progressively  
lighter devices installed above.  
Do not wall mount the Series 6600 Switches.  
C a u t i o n s  
The Series 6600 Switches should be mounted with the optional Rail  
Mounting Kit (5070-6532) in an HP 10000 (HP 10K) rack or any 4 post  
racking solution.  
Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the  
power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power source.  
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied  
with the switch and power supply, be sure the cord is adequately sized for  
the switch’s current requirements. In addition, be sure to use a power cord  
displaying the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for  
power cords in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power  
cord can be used safely with the switch and power supply.  
When installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the switch and  
should be easily accessible in case the switch must be powered off.  
Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and over-  
current protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply  
circuits, add together the ampere ratings of all devices installed on the  
same circuit as the switch and compare the total with the rating limit for  
the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the  
devices near the AC power connectors.  
Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient  
temperature might exceed 40°C (104°F).  
Ensure the air flow around the front and back of the switch is not  
restricted. Leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) for cooling. See page 2-4 for  
the air flow direction.

Installation Procedures  
Figure 2-1. Default air flow direction of the Series 6600 Switches is from power to  
ports.  
The direction of air flow can be reversed from the default direction shown in  
figure 2-1 by reversing the direction of the fans. See step 3 below, Reversing  
the air flow.  
Installation Procedures  
Summary  
1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-5). Ensure the physical environ-  
ment is properly prepared, including having the correct network cabling  
ready to connect to the switch and having an appropriate location for the  
switch. See page 2-3 for some installation precautions.  
2. Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-5). Plug the switch into a  
power source and observe that the LEDs on the switch’s front panel  
indicate correct switch operation. When self test is complete, unplug the  
switch.  
3. (Optional) Reversing the air flow (page 2-8) The direction of air flow  
can be reversed from the default direction by reversing the fans.  
4. Mount the switch (page 2-10). The Switch can be mounted in a 19-inch  
telco rack, or in an equipment cabinet.

Installation Procedures  
5. Connect power to the switch (page 2-14). Once the switch is mounted,  
plug it into the nearby main power source.  
6. (Optional) Install or remove mini-GBICs or SFPs (page 2-15). The  
switch has four slots for installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you  
will mount the switch, it may be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Mini-  
GBICs can be installed or removed while the switch is powered on.  
7. Connect the network cables (page 2-18). Using the appropriate  
network cables, connect the network devices to the switch ports.  
8. (Optional) Connect a console to the switch (page 2-19). You may  
wish to modify the switch’s configuration, for example, to configure an IP  
addresssoitcanbemanagedusing awebbrowser,fromanSNMPnetwork  
management station, or through a Telnet session. Configuration changes  
can be made easily by using the included console cable to connect a PC  
to the switch’s console port.  
At this point, the switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you  
need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.  
1. Prepare the Installation Site  
Cabling Infrastructure - Ensure the cabling infrastructure meets the  
necessary network requirements. See Appendix B “Cabling and Technology  
Information” for more information.  
Installation Location- Before installing the switch, plan its location and  
orientation relative to other devices and equipment:  
In the front of the switch, leave at least 7.6 cm (3 inches) of space for  
the twisted-pair, fiber-optic cabling, and cooling. See Figure 2-1 for  
the air flow direction.  
In the back of the switch, leave at least 3.8 cm (1 1/2 inches) of space  
for the power cord and cooling.  
2. Verify the Switch Passes Self Test  
Before mounting the switch in its network location, you should first verify it  
is working properly by plugging it into a power source and verifying it passes  
self test.

Installing the Switch  
Installation Procedures  
1. Connect the power cord supplied with the switch to the power connector  
on the back of the power supply, and then into a properly grounded  
electrical outlet.  
Figure 2-2. Connecting the power cord.  
N o t e  
The Series 6600 Switches do not have a power switch. They are powered on  
when the power cord is connected to the power supply and to a power source.  
For safety, the power outlet should be located near the switch installation.  
The power supply cannot be removed when the power cord is connected.  
The switch automatically adjusts to any voltage between 100-127 and 200-240  
volts and either 50 or 60 Hz. No voltage range settings are required.  
If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied with  
the switch, be sure to use a power cord displaying the mark of the safety  
agency that defines the regulations for power cords in your country. The mark  
is your assurance that the power cord can be used safely with the switch.  
2. Check the LEDs on the switch as described below. When the switch is  
powered on, it performs its diagnostic self test. Self test takes approxi-  
mately 50 seconds to complete.

6. (Optional) Install or Remove mini-GBICs or SFPs  
You can install or remove a mini-GBIC from a mini-GBIC slot without having  
to power off the switch. Use only ProCurve transceiver accessories.  
N o t e s  
The mini-GBIC slots are shared with the four 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45  
ports. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, the associated RJ-45 port is  
disabled and cannot be used.  
The mini-GBICs operate only at full duplex. Half duplex operation is not  
supported.  
Inserting a 10-GbE transceiver (SFP+) into a 1 gigabit (mini-GBIC) slot,  
will generate an event log message, “Transceiver type not supported by  
this port”, and the transceiver will not function. The reverse is true also,  
inserting a 1 gigabit (mini-GBIC) transceiver into a 10-GbE slot will  
generate an event log message and the transceiver will not function.  
Ensure the network cable is NOT connected when you install or remove  
a mini-GBIC unless you are using a Direct Attach Cable (DAC).

Installing the Switch  
Installation Procedures  
Terminal Configuration  
To connect a console to the switch, configure the PC terminal emulator as a  
DEC VT-100 (ANSI) terminal or use a VT-100 terminal, and configure either  
one to operate with these settings:  
any baud rate from 1200 to 115200 (the switch senses the speed)  
8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, and flow control set to Xon/Xoff  
for the Windows Terminal program, also disable (uncheck) the “Use  
Function, Arrow, and Ctrl Keys for Windows” option  
for the Hilgraeve HyperTerminal program, select the “Terminal keys”  
option for the “Function, Arrow, and Ctrl Keys act as” parameter  
If you want to operate the console using a different configuration, make sure  
you change the settings on both the terminal and on the switch so they are  
compatible. Change the switch settings first, save your changes, then change  
the terminal settings, then reboot the switch and reestablish the console  
session.  
Direct Console Access  
To connect a console to the  
switch, follow these steps:  
1. Connect the PC or terminal  
Console port  
to the switch’s Console Port  
using the console cable  
Console cable supplied  
included with the Switch. (If  
with the switch  
your PC or terminal has a 25-  
pin serial connector, first  
attach a 9-pin to 25-pin  
PC running a terminal  
emulator program, or  
straight-through adapter at  
a VT-100 terminal  
one end of the console  
cable.)

Getting Started With Switch Configuration  
Recommended Minimal Configuration

Getting Started With Switch Configuration  
This chapter is a guide for using the console Switch Setup screen to quickly  
assign an IP (Internet Protocol) address and subnet mask to the switch, set a  
Manager password, and, optionally, configure other basic features.  
For more information on using the switch console and the other switch  
management interfaces: the web browser interface and the SNMP  
management tool, ProCurve Manager, please see the Management and  
Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site at  
Recommended Minimal Configuration  
In the factory default configuration, the switch has no IP (Internet Protocol)  
address and subnet mask, and no passwords. In this state, it can be managed  
only through a direct console connection. To manage the switch through in-  
band (networked) access, you should configure the switch with an IP address  
and subnet mask compatible with your network. Also, you should configure  
a Manager password to control access privileges from the console and web  
browser interface. Other parameters in the Switch Setup screen can be left at  
their default settings or you can configure them with values you enter.  
Many other features can be configured through the switch’s console interface,  
to optimize the switch’s performance, to enhance your control of the network  
traffic, and to improve network security. Once an IP address has been  
configured on the switch, these features can be accessed more conveniently  
through a remote Telnet session, through the switch’s web browser interface,  
and from an SNMP network management station running a network  
management program, such as ProCurve Manager. For a listing of switch  
features available with and without an IP address, refer to “How IP Addressing  
Affects Switch Operation” in the Management and Configuration Guide,  
which is on the ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.  
For more information on IP addressing, refer to “IP Configuration” in the  
Management and Configuration Guide.

Getting Started With Switch Configuration  
Using the Console Setup Screen  
N o t e  
By default, the switch is configured to acquire an IP address configuration  
from a DHCP or Bootp server. To use DHCP/Bootp instead of the manual  
method described in this chapter, see “DHCP/Bootp Operation” in the  
Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site  
Using the Console Setup Screen  
The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for  
management and password protection in your network is to use a direct  
console connection to the switch, start a console session, and access the  
Switch Setup screen.  
1. Using the method described in the preceding section, connect a terminal  
device to the switch and display the switch console command (CLI)  
prompt (the default display).  
The CLI prompt appears displaying the switch model number:  
ProCurve 6600-24G Switch#  
2. At the prompt, enter the setupcommand to display the Switch Setup  
screen. The following illustration shows the Setup screen with the default

The above procedure configures your switch with a Manager password, IP  
address, and subnet mask. As a result, with the proper network connections,  
you can now manage the switch from a PC equipped with Telnet, a web  
browser interface, or from an SNMP-based network management station  
using a tool such as ProCurve Manager.  
Some basic information on managing your switch is included in the next  
section. For more information on the console, web browser, and SNMP  
management interfaces and all the features that can be configured on the  
switch, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the  
ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.  
To Recover from a Lost Manager Password  
If you cannot start a console session at the manager level because of a lost  
Manager password, you can clear all passwords and user names by getting  
physical access to the switch and pressing and holding the Clear button for a

The switch’s IP address can be used to manage the switch from any PC that  
is on the same subnet as the switch. Either a Telnet session or a standard web  
browser can be used to manage the switch.  
Starting a Telnet Session  
To access the switch through a Telnet session, follow these steps:  
1. Make sure the switch is configured with an IP address and that the switch  
is reachable from the PC that is running the Telnet session (for example,  
by using a Ping command to the switch’s IP address).  
2. Start the Telnet program on a PC that is on the same subnet as the switch  
and connect to the switch’s IP address.  
3. You will see the copyright page and the message “Press any key to  
continue”. Press a key, and you will then see the switch console command  
(CLI) prompt, for example:  
ProCurve 6600-24G-4XG Switch#  
Enter helpor ?to see a list of commands that can be executed at the  
prompt. Entering any command followed by help provides more detailed  
context help information about the command. Entering any command  
followed by ?displays a list of options that are available at that point in  
the command entry.  
Starting a Web Browser Session  
Your Switch can be managed through a graphical interface that you can access  
from any PC or workstation on the network by running your web browser and  
typing in the switch’s IP address as the URL. No additional software  
installation is required to make this interface available; it is included in the  
switch’s onboard software.

Troubleshooting  
This chapter describes how to troubleshoot your switch. This document  
describes troubleshooting mostly from a hardware perspective. You can  
perform more in-depth troubleshooting on the switch using the software tools  
available with the switch, including the full-featured console interface, the  
built-in web browser interface, and ProCurve Manager, the SNMP-based  
network management tool. For more information, see the chapter “Trouble-  
shooting” in the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the  
ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.  
This chapter describes the following:  
Basic Troubleshooting Tips (page 5-1)

Basic Troubleshooting Tips  
Most problems are caused by the following situations. Check for these items  
first when starting your troubleshooting:  
Connecting to devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration.  
The RJ-45 ports are configured as “Auto”. That is, when connecting to  
attached devices, the switch will operate in one of two ways to determine  
the link speed and the communication mode (half duplex or full duplex):  
If the connected device is also configured to Auto, the switch will  
automatically negotiate both link speed and communication mode.  
If the connected device has a fixed configuration, for example  
100 Mbps, at half or full duplex, the switch will automatically sense  
the link speed, but will default to a communication mode of half  
duplex.

Troubleshooting  
Basic Troubleshooting Tips  
C a u t i o n  
Because the switch behaves in this way (in compliance with the IEEE 802.3  
standard), if a device connected to the switch has a fixed configuration at full  
duplex, the device will not connect correctly to the switch. The result will be  
high error rates and very inefficient communications between the switch and  
the device.  
Make sure all devices connected to the switch are configured to auto nego-  
tiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex (all hubs are configured this  
way, for example).  
Faulty or loose cables. Look for loose or obviously faulty connections.  
If they appear to be OK, make sure the connections are snug. If that does  
not correct the problem, try a different cable.  
Non-standard cables. Non-standard and miswired cables may cause  
network collisions and other network problems, and can seriously impair  
network performance. Use a new correctly-wired cable or compare your  
cable to the cable in appendix B, “Cables and Connectors” for pinouts and  
correct cable wiring. A category 5 cable tester is a recommended tool for  
every 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T network installation.  
Improper Network Topologies. It is important to make sure you have  
a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive  
cablelengthandexcessive repeaterdelaysbetweenendnodes. Ifyouhave  
network problems after recent changes to the network, change back to  
the previous topology. If you no longer experience the problems, the new  
topology is probably at fault. Sample topologies are shown at the end of  
chapter 2 in this book, and some topology configuration guidelines can  
be found online on the ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.  
In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains  
no data path loops. Between any two end nodes, there should be only  
one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast  
storms that will severely impact your network performance.  
For your switch, if you wish to build redundant paths between important  
nodes in your network to provide some fault tolerance, you should enable  
Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch. This ensures only one  
of the redundant paths is active at any time, thus avoiding data path loops.  
Spanning Tree can be enabled through the switch console, the web  
browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.  
The Series 6600 Switch devices also support Trunking, which allows  
multiple network cables to be used for a single network connection  
without causing a data path loop. For more information on Spanning Tree  
and Trunking, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is  
on the ProCurve Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.

Troubleshooting  
Basic Troubleshooting Tips  
Check the port configuration. A port on your switch may not be  
operating as you expect because it has been put into a “blocking” state by  
Spanning Tree, GVRP (automatic VLANs), or LACP (automatic trunking).  
(Note that the normal operation of the Spanning Tree, GVRP, and LACP  
features may put the port in a blocking state.) Or, the port just may have  
been configured as disabled through software.  
Use the switch console to determine the port’s configuration and verify  
that there is not an improper or undesired configuration of any of the  
switch features that may be affecting the port. For more information, see  
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve  
Web site at www.procurve.com/manuals.  
For more information on possible network problems and their solutions, refer  
to the technical note “Troubleshooting LAN Performance and Intermittent  
Connectivity Problems”, which can be found on the ProCurve Web site,  
www.procurve.com/library, under “T” in the A-Z Index section.

Tip  
Problem  
Solution  
The switch is not  
plugged into an  
active AC power  
source, or the  
switch’s power  
supply may have  
failed.  
1. Verify the power cord is plugged into an active power source and to the switch. Make  
sure these connections are snug.  
2. Try power cycling the switch by unplugging and plugging the power cord back in.  
3. If the Power LED is still not on, verify that the AC power source works by plugging  
another device into the outlet. Or try plugging the switch into a different outlet or try a  
different power cord.  
If the power source and power cord are OK and this condition persists, the switch power  
supply may have failed. Call your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic  
support services from ProCurve to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty  
booklet for more information.

If the port is a pluggable, verify it is one of the pluggables supported by the switch.  
Unsupported pluggables will be identified with this fault condition. The supported mini-  
GBICs are listed in Chapter 2, “Installing the Switch” on page 2-1. The mini-GBICs are  
also tested when they are “hot-swapped” — installed or changed while the switch is  
powered on. Also check the log file for error messages.  
To verify the port has failed, try removing and reinstalling the mini-GBIC without having  
to power off the switch. If the port fault indication reoccurs, you will have to replace the  
mini-GBIC.

properly.  
Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly.  
Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection:  
For twisted-pair connections to the fixed 10/100 or 10/100/1000 ports, if the port is  
configured to “Auto” (auto negotiate), either straight-through or crossover cables  
can be used because of the switch’s “HP Auto-MDIX” feature and the Auto MDI/  
MDI-X feature of the 10/100/1000-T port.  
Note: If the switch port configuration is changed to one of the fixed configuration  
options (for example, 100 Mbps/Full Duplex), then the port operates as MDI-X only  
and you must use the correct type of cable for the connection. In general, for  
connecting an end node (MDI port) to the switch, use straight-through cable; for  
connecting to MDI-X ports on hubs, other switches, and routers, use crossover  
cable.  
For fiber-optic connections, verify the transmit port on the switch is connected to  
the receive port on the connected device, and the switch receive port is connected  
to the transmit port on the connected device.  
For the dual-personality 10/100/1000-T ports, be sure a mini-GBIC is not installed in the  
associated slot.  
For 1000Base-T connections, verify that the network cabling complies with the IEEE  
802.3ab standard. the cable should be installed according to the ANSI/TIA/EIA-568-  
A-5 specifications. Cable testing should comply with the stated limitations for Attenu-  
ation, Near-End Crosstalk, Far-End Crosstalk, Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT),  
Multiple Disturber ELFEXT, and Return Loss.  
The cable verification process must include all patch cables from any end devices,  
including the switch, to any patch panels in the cabling path.  
Verify the port has not been disabled through a switch configuration change.  
You can use the console interface, or, if you have configured an IP address on the  
switch, use the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager network management  
software to determine the state of the port and re-enable the port if necessary.  
Verify the switch port configuration matches the configuration of the attached device.  
For example, if the switch port is configured as “Auto”, the port on the attached device  
also MUST be configured as “Auto”. Depending on the port type, twisted-pair or fiber-  
optic, if the configurations don’t match, the results could be a very unreliable connec-  
tion, or no link at all.

Proactive Networking  
Proactive Networking  
The HP ProCurve Series 6600 Switches have built-in management capabilities  
that proactively help you manage your network including:  
finding and helping you fix the most common network error conditions  
(for example, faulty network cabling, and non-standard network topolo-  
gies)  
informing you of the problem with clear, easy-to-understand messages  
recommending network configuration changes to enhance the perfor-  
mance of your network  
The following interfaces provide tests, indicators, and an event log that can  
be used to monitor the switch and its network connections and to help you  
take advantage of these proactive networking features:  
ProCurve Manager - an SNMP-based network management tool that is  
included with your switch.  
A graphicalwebbrowser interface thatyoucanuse to manage your switch  
from a PC running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft  
Internet Explorer, and Netscape Communicator.  
A full-featured easy-to-use console interface that you can access by  
connecting a standard terminal or PC running a terminal emulator to the  
switch’s console port. The cable to make that connection is provided with  
your switch. The console interface is also accessible through a Telnet  
connection.  
For more information on using these software tools to diagnose and manage  
your switch, see the “Troubleshooting” chapter in the Management and  
Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site at

Troubleshooting  
Hardware Diagnostic Tests  
Hardware Diagnostic Tests  
Testing the Switch by Resetting It  
If you believe the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch  
to test its circuitry and operating code. To reset a switch, either:  
unplug and plug in the power cord (power cycling)  
press the Reset button on the front of the switch  
Power cycling the switch and pressing the Reset button both cause the switch  
to perform its power-on self test, which almost always will resolve any  
temporary operational problems. These reset processes also cause any  
network traffic counters to be reset to zero, and cause the System Up Time  
timer to reset to zero.  
Checking the Switch LEDs  
The self test passes if the Fault and Self Test LEDs on the front of the switch  
go off after approximately 50 seconds. If these LEDs stay on longer than 60  
seconds or begin Blinking, there may be a problem with the switch.  
See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 5-4 for information on interpreting  
the LED patterns and LED behaviors in chapter one.  
Checking Console Messages  
Useful diagnostic messages may be displayed on the console screen when the  
switch is reset. As described in chapter 2 under step 7, “Connect a Console to  
the Switch”, connect a PC running a VT-100 terminal emulator program or a  
standard VT-100 terminal to the switch’s Console Port and configure it to run  
at 9600 baud, and with the other terminal communication settings shown on  
page 2-19. Then, when you reset the switch, note the messages that are  
displayed. Additionally, you can check the switch event log, which can be  
accessed from the console using the show log command, or from the console  
Main Menu.

Troubleshooting  
Hardware Diagnostic Tests  
Testing Twisted-Pair Cabling  
Network cables that fail to provide a link or provide an unreliable link between  
the switch and the connected network device may not be compatible with the  
IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T standards. The twisted-  
pair cables attached to the Switch must be compatible with the appropriate  
standards. To verify your cable is compatible with these standards, use a  
qualified cable test device.  
Testing Switch-to-Device Network Communications  
You can perform the following communication tests to verify the network is  
operating correctly between the switch and any connected device that can  
respond correctly to the communication test.  
Link Test -- a physical layer test that sends IEEE 802.2 test packets to any  
device identified by its MAC address.  
Ping Test -- a network layer test used on IP networks that sends test  
packets to any device identified by its IP address.  
These tests can be performed through the switch console interface from a  
terminal connected to the switch or through a Telnet connection, or from the  
switch’s web browser interface. For more information, see the Management  
and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web site at  
These tests can also be performed from an SNMP network management  
station running a program that can manage the switch, for example, ProCurve  
Manager.  
Testing End-to-End Network Communications  
Both the switch and the cabling can be tested by running an end-to-end  
communications test -- a test that sends known data from one network device  
to another through the switch. For example, if you have two PCs on the  
network that have LAN adapters between which you can run a link-level test  
or Ping test through the switch, you can use this test to verify that the entire  
communication path between the two PCs is functioning correctly. See your  
LAN adapter documentation for more information on running a link test or  
Ping test.

Troubleshooting  
Restoring the Factory Default Configuration  
Restoring the Factory Default  
Configuration  
As part of your troubleshooting process on the switch, it may become neces-  
sary to return the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This  
process momentarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords,  
clears the console event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a  
complete selftest, and rebootsthe switch into its factory default configuration  
including deleting the IP address, if one is configured.  
N o t e  
This process removes all switch configuration changes you have made from  
the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of  
VLANs, Spanning Tree, trunks, and stacking. Returning the configuration of  
these features to their factory default settings (usually disabling them) may  
result in network connectivity issues.  
Ifthe switchhasa validconfiguration, andyou arerestoring the factory default  
settings for a reason other than configuration problems, you should save the  
switch configuration prior to performing the factory default reset. Then, after  
the reset and resolution of the original problem, you can restore the saved  
configuration to the switch. For both the save and restore processes, you can  
use the console copy command. For more information on this command, see  
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is on the ProCurve Web  
You can restore the factory default configuration either on the switch itself,  
or through the switch console.  
To execute the factory default reset on the switch, perform these steps:  
1. Using pointed objects, simultaneously press both the Reset and Clear  
buttons on the front of the switch.  
2. Continue to press the Clear button while releasing the Reset button.  
3. When the Self Test LED begins to blink, release the Clear button.  
The switch will then complete its self test and begin operating with its  
configuration restored to the factory default settings.  
To restore the factory default configuration using the console, execute the  
erase startup-config command from the console command prompt.

Cabling and Technology Information  
Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements. The Category 5 networking  
cables that work for 100Base-TX connections should also work for  
1000Base-T, as long as all four-pairs are connected. But, for the most robust  
connections you should use cabling that complies with the Category 5e  
specifications, as described in Addendum 5 to the TIA-568-A standard (ANSI/  
TIA/EIA-568-A-5).  
Because of the increased speed provided by 1000Base-T (Gigabit-T), network  
cable quality is more important than for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.  
Cabling plants being used to carry 1000Base-T networking must comply with  
the IEEE 802.3ab standards. In particular, the cabling must pass tests for  
Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT).  
Additionally, unlike the cables for 100Base-TX, the 1000Base-T cables must  
pass tests for Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT) and Return Loss.  
When testing your cabling, be sure to include the patch cables that connect  
the switch and other end devices to the patch panels on your site. The patch  
cables are frequently overlooked when testing cable and they must also  
comply with the cabling standards.

Mode Conditioning Patch Cord  
The following information applies to installations in which multimode fiber-  
optic cables are connected to a Gigabit-LX port or a 10-Gigabit LRM port.  
Multimode cable has a design characteristic called “Differential Mode Delay”,  
which requires the transmission signals be “conditioned” to compensate for  
the cable design and thus prevent resulting transmission errors.  
Under certain circumstances, depending on the cable used and the lengths of  
the cable runs, an external Mode Conditioning Patch Cord may need to be  
installed between the Gigabit-LX or 10-Gigabit LRM transmitting device and  
the multimode network cable to provide the transmission conditioning. If you  
experience a high number of transmission errors on those ports, usually CRC  
or FCS errors, you may need to install one of these patch cords between the  
fiber-optic port in your switch and your multimode fiber-optic network  
cabling, at both ends of the network link.  
The patch cord consists of a short length of single mode fiber cable coupled  
to graded-index multimode fiber cable on the transmit side, and only  
multimode cable on the receive side. The section of single mode fiber is  
connected in such a way that it minimizes the effects of the differential mode  
delay in the multimode cable.  
N o t e  
Most of the time, if you are using good quality graded-index multimode fiber  
cable that adheres to the standards listed in Appendix B, there should not be  
a need to use mode conditioning patch cords in your network. This is  
especially true if the fiber runs in your network are relatively short.  
For 10-Gigabit LRM using OM3 cable (50 μm multimode @ 1500/500 MHz*km),  
a mode conditioning patch cord is not required. Other multimode cables may  
require mode conditioning patch cords to achieve the LRM maximum  
distances.

Mode Conditioning Patch Cord  
Installing the Patch Cord  
As shown in the illustration below, connect the patch cord to the ProCurve  
transceiver with the section of single mode fiber plugged in to the Tx  
(transmit) port. Then, connect the other end of the patch cord to your network  
cabling patch panel, or directly to the network multimode fiber.  
If you connect the patch cord directly to the network cabling, you may need  
to install a female-to-female adapter to allow the cables to be connected  
together.

Figure B-1. Example: Connecting a Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX  
Make sure you purchase a patch cord that has appropriate connectors on each  
end, and has multimode fibers that match the characteristics of the multimode  
fiber in your network. Most important, the core diameter of the multimode  
patch cord must match the core diameter of the multimode cable  
infrastructure (either 50 or 62.5 microns).

Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs  
Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs  
Auto-MDIX Feature: The 10/100/1000-T ports support the IEEE 802.3ab  
standard, which includes the “Auto MDI/MDI-X” feature. In the default  
configuration, “Auto”, the ports on the Switch 6600 all automatically detect  
the type of port on the connected device and operate as either an MDI or MDI-  
X port, whichever is appropriate. So for any connection, a straight-through  
twisted-pair cable can be used -- you no longer have to use crossover cables,  
although crossover cables can also be used for any of the connections.  
If you connect a Switch 6600 twisted-pair port to another switch or hub, which  
typically have MDI-X ports, the Switch 6600 port automatically operates as an  
MDI port. If you connect it to an end node, such as a server or PC, which  
typically have MDI ports, the Switch 6600 port operates as an MDI-X port. In  
all cases, you can use standard straight-through cables or crossover cables.  
If you happen to use a correctly wired crossover cable, though, the switch will  
still be able to automatically detect the MDI/MDI-X operation and link  
correctly to the connected device.  
Other Wiring Rules:  
All twisted-pair wires used for 10 Mbps, and 100 Mbps operation must be  
twisted through the entire length of the cable. The wiring sequence must  
conform to EIA/TIA 568-B (not USOC). See “Twisted-Pair Cable Pin  
Assignments” later in this appendix for a listing of the signals used on each  
pin.  
For 1000Base-T connections, all four pairs of wires in the cable must be  
available for data transmission. See “Note on 1000Base-T Cable Require-  
ments” on page B-2 for more information on 1000Base-T cabling.  
For 10 Mbps connections to the ports, you can use Category 3, 4, or 5  
unshielded twisted-pair cable, as supported by the IEEE 802.3 Type  
10Base-T standard.  
For 100 Mbps connections to the ports, use 100-ohm Category 5 UTP or  
STP cable only, as supported by the IEEE 802.3u Type 100Base-TX stan-  
dard.  
For 1000 Mbps connections, 100-ohm Category 5e or better cabling is  
recommended.

Cabling and Technology Information  
Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs  
Straight-Through Twisted-Pair Cable for  
10 Mbps or 100 Mbps Network Connections  
Because of the HP Auto-MDIX operation of the 10/100 ports on the switch, for  
all network connections, to PCs, servers or other end nodes, or to hubs or  
other switches, you can use straight-through cables.  
If any of these ports are given a fixed configuration, for example 100 Mbps/  
Full Duplex, the ports operate as MDI-X ports, and straight-through cables  
must be then used for connections to PC NICs and other MDI ports.

Készülékek magánháztartásban történő selejtezése az Európai Unió területén  
A készüléken, illetve a készülék csomagolásán látható azonos szimbólum annak jelzésére szolgál,  
hogy a készülék a selejtezés során az egyéb háztartási hulladéktól eltérő módon kezelendő. A

biztosítja a selejtezett termékek környezetre és emberi egészségre nézve biztonságos feldolgozását.  
A begyűjtés pontos helyéről bővebb tájékoztatást a lakhelye szerint illetékes önkormányzattól, az  
illetékes szemételtakarító vállalattól, illetve a terméket elárusító helyen kaphat.
