ESD precautions NOTE Refer to Cautions and Danger Noticesfor translations of safety notices for this product. ESD precautions The Brocade 6510 contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive FRUs. When working with any Brocade 6510 FRU, use correct ESD procedures. CAUTION Before plugging a cable into to any port, be sure to discharge the voltage stored on the cable by touching the electrical contacts to ground surface. CAUTION Static electricity can damage the chassis and other electronic devices.
RTC battery DANGER To avoid high voltage shock, do not open the device while the power is on. • The power supply standards provided in, Power supply specifications on page 44 are met. RTC battery Do not attempt to replace the real-time clock (RTC) battery. There is danger of explosion if the battery is incorrectly replaced or disposed of. Contact your switch supplier if the real-time clock begins to lose time. DANGER Risk of explosion if battery is replaced by an incorrect type.
Recommendations for cable management • The equipment in the rack is grounded through a reliable branch circuit connection and maintain ground at all times. Do not rely on a secondary connection to a branch circuit, such as a power strip. • Airflow and temperature requirements are met on an ongoing basis, particularly if the switch is installed in a closed or multi-rack assembly. • The additional weight of the switch does not exceed the rack’s weight limits or unbalance the rack in any way.
Standalone installation for a Brocade 6510 • Brocade-branded SFP+s and compatible cables (Brocade-branded 16 Gbps SFP+s required for 16 Gbps performance), as required • Access to an FTP server or USB device for backing up the switch configuration (optional) Standalone installation for a Brocade 6510 Perform this task to install the Brocade 6510 as a standalone unit. 1. Unpack the Brocade 6510 and verify the items listed on Items included with the Brocade 6510 on page 15.
Creating a serial connection 1. Connect the power cords to both power supplies, and then to power sources on separate circuits to protect against AC failure. Ensure that the cords have a minimum service loop of 6 in. available and are routed to avoid stress. 2. Power on the power supplies by flipping both AC switches to the “I” symbol. The power supply LEDs display amber until POST is complete, and then change to green. The switch usually requires several minutes to boot and complete POST.
Using DHCP to set the IP address Using DHCP to set the IP address When using DHCP, the Brocade 6510 obtains its IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway address from the DHCP server. The DHCP client can only connect to a DHCP server that is on the same subnet as the switch. If your DHCP server is not on the same subnet as the Brocade 6510, use a static IP address. Setting a static IP address 1. Log into the switch using the default password, which is password. 2.
Local time synchronization • You can view the time zone settings. However, only those with administrative permissions can set the time zones. • The tsTimeZone setting automatically adjusts for Daylight Savings Time. • Changing the time zone on a switch updates the local time zone setup and is reflected in local time calculations. • By default, all switches are in the GMT time zone (0,0).
Setting time zones Thu Sep 27 12:30:00 UTC 2007 switch:admin> Setting time zones You must perform the procedure on all switches for which the time zone must be set. However, you only need to set the time zone once on each switch, because the value is written to nonvolatile memory. Use one of the two following procedures to set the time zone. The first procedure requires you to select the actual time zone and the second requires you to select the country location of the switch.
