Preparing for installation Safety recommendations To avoid any equipment damage or bodily injury, read the following safety recommendations before installation. Note that the recommendations do not cover every possible hazardous condition. • Before cleaning the switch, remove all power cords from the switch. Do not clean the switch with wet cloth or liquid.
For the temperature and humidity requirements of different switch models, see "Appendix A Chassis views and technical specifications." Cleanliness Dust buildup on the chassis might result in electrostatic adsorption, which causes poor contact of metal components and contact points, especially when indoor relative humidity is low. In the worst case, electrostatic adsorption can cause communication failure.
The switch is a Class 1 laser device. Installation tools The installation tools are not provided with the switch. Prepare them yourself. • Phillips screwdriver. • ESD wrist strap. • Marker.
CAUTION: Keep the tamper-proof seal on a mounting screw on the chassis cover intact, and if you want to open the chassis, contact H3C for permission. Otherwise, H3C shall not be liable for any consequence caused thereby. Figure 1 Hardware installation flow...
Installing the switch in a 19-inch rack Requirements for the rack To close the rack door easily, make sure the rack depth for the S5830V2-24S, S5820V2-52QF (LS-5820V2-52QF), S5820V2-52QF-U, and S5820V2-52Q switches is a minimum of 1000 mm (39.37 in). The distance from the front to the rear posts of the rack must meet the requirements described Table Table 3 Requirements for the distance from the front to rear rack posts Maximum...

Figure 8 Attaching the rear mounting brackets/chassis rails/grounding cable to the chassis Figure 9 Attaching the front mounting brackets/chassis rails to the chassis NOTE: • As a best practice, use the primary grounding point or auxiliary grounding point 1 because the grounding cable and grounding screw that come with the switch are suitable only for these two grounding points.
Align the screw holes in one slide rail with the cage nuts in the rack post on one side, and use screws (user supplied) to attach the slide rail to the rack, as shown in Figure Repeat the preceding step to attach the other slide rail to the rack post on the other side. Keep the two slide rails at the same height so the slide rails can attach into the chassis rails.
Figure 11 Mounting the switch in the rack (1) Figure 12 Mounting the switch in the rack (2) Grounding the switch WARNING! Correctly connecting the switch grounding cable is crucial to lightning protection and EMI protection.
The power input end of the switch has a noise filter, whose central ground is directly connected to the chassis to form the chassis ground (commonly known as PGND). You must securely connect this chassis ground to the earth so the faradism and leakage electricity can be safely released to the earth to minimize EMI susceptibility of the switch.
NOTE: • As a best practice, use the primary grounding point or auxiliary grounding point 1, because the grounding cable and grounding screw provided with the switch are applicable only to these two grounding points. • To use auxiliary grounding point 2 on the S5820V2-48S/S5820V2-52QF, S5820V2-52QF-U, S5820V2-52Q, or S5820V2-54QS-GE switch, prepare a grounding cable yourself.
Installing/removing a fan tray CAUTION: To ensure good ventilation for the switch: • Install two fan trays of the same model on the switch. Do not power on the switch when it does not have fan trays or has only one fan tray installed. •...
Figure 16 Installing an LSVM1FANSC or LSVM1FANSCB fan tray to the S5830V2-24S Removing a fan tray WARNING! • Take out the fan tray after the fans completely stop rotating. • To prevent an unbalanced fan from causing loud noise, do not touch the fans, even if they are not rotating.
Figure 17 Installation procedure Figure 18 Removal procedure Turn off the circuit Disconnect the power Remove the power breaker cord module Installing a power module CAUTION: • Do not install LSVM1AC300/LSVM1DC300 and LSVM1AC650/LSVM1DC650 power modules on the same switch. • Follow the forward inertia of the power module when inserting it into the chassis, and make sure the power module has firm contact with the connectors on the backplane.
Figure 20 Installing a power filler module Removing a power module CAUTION: If the switch has two power modules, removing one power module does not affect the operation of the switch. If the switch has only one power module, removing the power module powers off the switch.
Figure 21 Removing the DC power cord (1) Press the tabs on the power cord connector with your thumb and forefinger (2) Pull the power cord connector out Figure 22 Removing the power module (1) Pivot the latch to the right with your thumb (2) Pull the power module out Connecting the power cord CAUTION:...
Connecting the LSVM1AC650 or LSVM1AC300 power module Insert the female connector of the AC power cord supplied with the power module into the power receptacle on the power module. Use a cable tie to secure the power cord to the handle of the power module, as shown in Figure Connect the other end of the power cord to an AC power outlet.
Verifying the installation After you complete the installation, verify that: • There is enough space for heat dissipation around the switch, and the rack is stable. • The grounding cable is securely connected. • The correct power source is used. •...
Accessing the switch for the first time Setting up the configuration environment The first time you access the switch you must use a console cable to connect a console terminal, for example, a PC, to the console port on the switch. Figure 25 Connecting the console port to a terminal Connecting the console cable Console cable...

After the startup completes, you can access the CLI to configure the switch. For more information about the configuration commands and CLI, see H3C S5830V2[S5820V2] Switch Series Configuration Guides and H3C S5830V2[S5820V2] Switch Series Command...
Setting up an IRF fabric You can use H3C IRF technology to connect and virtualize S5830V2 and S5820V2 switches into a large virtual switch called an "IRF fabric" for flattened network topology, and high availability, scalability, and manageability. IRF fabric setup flowchart...
Distribute the IRF member switches in different racks to implement the top-of-rack (ToR) access solution for a data center. As your business grows, you can plug H3C S5830V2 or S5820V2 switches into the IRF fabric to increase the switching capacity without any topology change or replacement.
Planning IRF topology and connections You can create an IRF fabric in daisy chain topology, or more reliably, ring topology. In ring topology, the failure of one IRF link does not cause the IRF fabric to split as in daisy chain topology. Rather, the IRF fabric changes to a daisy chain topology without interrupting network services.
Figure 29 IRF fabric in ring topology IRF-port1 IRF-port2 IRF-port2 IRF-port1 IRF-port1 IRF-port2 Identifying physical IRF ports on the member switches Identify the SFP+ or QSFP+ ports to be used for IRF connections on the member switches according to your topology and connection scheme. All the SFP+ and QSFP+ ports on the S5820V2-52QF, S5820V2-52QF-U, and S5820V2-54QS-GE switches, all the 1/10-GE Ethernet ports and QSFP+ ports on the S5820V2-52Q switch, and all the SFP+ ports on the S5830V2-24S switch can be used for IRF connections.

The following subsections describe several H3C recommended IRF connection schemes, and all these schemes use a ring topology. Connecting the IRF member switches in one rack Use short-haul and long-haul SFP+ DAC cables to connect the IRF member switches (four switches...
• To bind the ports on an interface card to an IRF port, you must install the interface card first. For how to install an interface card, see H3C S5830V2 & S5820V2 Switch Series Interface Cards User Guide. •...

To avoid IP address collision and network problems, configure a minimum of one multi-active detection (MAD) mechanism to detect the presence of multiple identical IRF fabrics and handle collisions. For more information about MAD detection, see H3C S5830V2 & S5820V2 Switch Series IRF Configuration Guide.
You can use the LEDs on the power module to identify a power module failure. For more information about the LEDs on a power module, see H3C LSVM1AC300 & LSVM1DC300 Power Modules User Manual and H3C LSVM1AC650 & LSVM1DC650 Power Modules User Manual.
Verify that the power supply is supplying power to the switch. Verify that the console cable is correctly connected. Verify that the console cable does not have any problems and the terminal settings are correct. If the problem persists, contact H3C Support.
