6 Step 1 Rack Mount ibypass Switch The switch is designed to occupy one rack unit height of a standard 19 rack. Do the following to install the ibypass Switch into an equipment rack: 1. Remove the Ear Extenders and screws from the shipping bag. 2. Attach the Long Ear Extender to the switch if you are only mounting one switch or attach the Short Ear Extender between two switches if you are mounting two switches. See Figure Slide the switches in place in the rack. 4. Fasten the switches in place at the front panel ears using the included Phillips screws. Long Ear Extender for one switch Short Ear Extender binds two switches Figure 3 - Attach Ear Extenders for Rack Mount 6

7 Step 2 Connect Power Before connecting power, ground the switch to the rack by connecting a 14AWG minimum ground wired with a #8 ring lug from the switch to a suitable ground connection on the rack. Do the following to connect and apply power to the ibypass Switch: 1. Plug one of the supplied power cords to a power connector located at the rear of the chassis. Plug the other end to a power source. See Figure For redundancy, plug the other power cord to the ibypass Plug the other end to a source independent from the first power source. The Power LEDs on the front illuminate. Figure 4 - Power Connections 7

8 Step 3 Connect Options Switch Default Settings The ibypass Switch ships with the following default system settings: IP Address: Monitor and Port Thresholds: 80% Netmask: Gateway: Username: admin Password: admin You have two ways of logging into the ibypass Switch. Connect Option 1 - Connect PC to Management Port 1. Establish a PC you want to use to connect to the switch. Make sure it s IP address is on the same subnet as the ibypass switch. The default address settings of the switch are shown above. 2. Connect one end of the included Cat 5e cable to the PC s Ethernet port and connect the other end to the ibypass Management port. See Figure Open a terminal window on the PC and ping to confirm the connection. 4. After you have confirmed that you have a connection, you can log in via SSH at the terminal prompt, or enter the default address into the browser URL. Go to the Assign IP in Web UI section if you want to log in through the Web UI. Go to the next step if you want to log in to the CLI. 8

9 5. At the terminal window prompt, type ssh Enter password admin. The prompt appears. 6. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and admin for the password. 7. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following command at the prompt: modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd> where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and <re-enter_passwd> is new password entered again. 8. Go to Configure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP address. Connect Cat 5e cable from Management port to PC Ethernet PC on the same subnet as ibypass 4x10G switch Figure 5 - PC to Management Port For more information about using the ibypass Switch CLI, enter help to display command information or see the ibypass Switch User Guide for more details. 9

10 Step 3 (cont.) Option 2 - Connect PC to the Console Port 1. Connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the ibypass Switch Console port with the supplied RJ45-DB9 console cable. See Figure Launch the terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal or minicom, and set the communication parameters to: baud 8 data bits no flow control no parity 1 stop bit 3. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and admin for the password. 4. Change the password for the admin account by entering the following command at the prompt: modify user password admin <new_passwd> <re-enter_passwd> where <new_passwd> is the new password for the admin account and <re-enter_passwd> is the new password entered again. 5. Go to Configure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP address.

12 Step 4 Configure the IP The ibypass Switch ships with a default address. You can decide to use the default address, assign a static IPv4 IP address or use DHCP to assign an address. To configure the system with a static IPv4 address, do the following: 1. At the CLI prompt, type the following to set the address mode to static: set network mode static 2. Type the following to set the IPv4 address: set network ipaddress <d.d.d.d> where <d.d.d.d> is the IPv4 address. 3. Type the following to set the network mask: set network netmask <m.m.m.m> where <m.m.m.m> is the netmask. 4. Type the following to set the gateway: set network gateway <g.g.g.g> where <g.g.g.g> is the gateway address. Type reboot, to reboot the system. This is required for the new address to take effect. 12

13 To configure the system to use a DHCP address, do the following: 1. At the CLI prompt, type the following to set the address mode: set network mode dhcp 2. At the next prompt, type the following to reboot the device: reboot 3. After reboot, log into the ibypass via the PC connected to the Console port. 4. At the CLI prompt, enter show network. The screen will display the address that was assigned to the switch. After setting the IP address, connect the Management port to the network, if you have not already done so, in order to access the device remotely over SSH or the Web UI. 13

14 Assign IP in Web UI If you want to change the IP address through the Web UI, do the following: 1. Open a browser on a PC connected to the ibypass switch and on the same subnet, and enter the default IP address in the URL, 2. At the ibypass log in banner page, enter Username admin and Password admin. The Home page displays. See Figure Click on the Admin tab. Under the Users List, enter a new password for the admin user. Re-enter the new password and click Update. Remember the new password. You must use the new password for subsequent log ins. 4. Click on the Configuration tab. The Configuration page displays. See Figure The IP Version field displays IPv4. Do not use IPv6 at this time. 6. In the DHCP field, select Static or Dhcp. 7. If you select Static, enter the IP address, netmask, and default gateway. 8. If you select Dhcp, your DHCP server will assign an IP address to the ibypass switch. 9. Click the Apply button for the changes to take effect. 10. After the ibypass has rebooted, enter the new IP address at the URL. The ibypass home page displays. 14
