x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 38 The following LEDs report operations and faults on the PWR05 PSU The following table describes LEDs on the PWR05 AC power supply unit. LED ~ IN OUT FAULT State Description Green AC input voltage is within 90-264 VAC, 47-63Hz. Off AC input voltage is outside the acceptable range. Green DC output voltage is within 12V +/- 10%. Off DC output voltage is outside the acceptable range, or the Standby switch is Off.
Hardware Reference 39 No configuration is necessary for the accelerator card to function; the card is enabled at installation. If you disable the card (using software), the switch handles IPv6 routing in the software. Use the hardware filter and QoS commands to enable Quality of Service (QoS) functionality on the accelerator card. For information about QoS functionality and hardware filters, see the Quality of Service and Switching chapters in the Software Reference.
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 40 Verifying installation To confirm that the network processor accelerator card is installed and operating correctly, check that the switch has recognised it. Turn on the switch and enter the show system command to display system information. The following figure is an example of output from the show system command for the AT-8948 model.
Hardware Reference 41 processor accelerator card at any time, contact your authorised Allied Telesis distributor or reseller and supply the serial numbers for them. If there is no entry for the accelerator card, then the switch’s boot process has not detected the card. The most likely cause is that the card is incorrectly plugged into the slot on the switch’s base board.
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 42 Using AT-TFTP Server This section explains how to access and use the AT-TFTP Server. You can transfer configuration files as well as download software upgrades with AT-TFTP Server. 1. If AT-TFTP Server has not been installed, install it now.

x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 44 Using Windows Terminal and HyperTerminal You can use a PC running terminal emulation software as the manager console, instead of a terminal. There are many terminal emulation applications available for PCs, but the most readily available are the Terminal and HyperTerminal applications included in Microsoft Windows 98, 2000, and XP Professional. In standard Windows installations, HyperTerminal is available from the Communications submenu.
Hardware Reference 45 3. In the “Connect using” field on the Connect To dialog box, select the COM port on the PC used to connect to the switch. and click the OK button. 4. In the COMn Properties dialog box, set the port to 9600 bits per second, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit. • For switches running the AlliedWare® operating system, set the flow control to Hardware. • For switches running the AlliedWare Plus™ operating system, set the flow control to None. Click the OK button.
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 46 5. From the main HyperTerminal window, select Properties from the File menu. Click the Settings tab, and set the Properties dialog box as follows. 6.

Hardware Reference 57 Test Facility The test facility is a hardware test tool in the AlliedWare operating system. Its primary function is to validate that there are no hardware problems after installation of the switch or expansion options. You can also use it as a troubleshooting tool, but it is just one of many such tools. You could consider the test facility to be a specialised interface module, such as PPP or Frame Relay, where the interfaces under test are dedicated to the test facility.
x900 Series Switch and SwitchBlade® x908 58 Diagnostics The AlliedWare and AlliedWare Plus operating systems include a set of diagnostic programs that perform basic checks of all system components. These diagnostics do not run with normal operating code and require that the system be totally dedicated to their use. The switch does not perform switching operations when diagnostics are running. This section describes the diagnostics available in the AlliedWare operating system.
