3 LED Codes The Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller has four vertically-stacked LEDs on its front panel. Each of the controller’s Gigabit Ethernet ports have two status LEDs. These LEDs display two colors (green & amber), and three lit states (solid, blinking, and off). The following tables decode the combinations of LED colors and states for the System Status LEDs and the Gigabit Ethernet LEDs.
LED Codes NOTE During controller start up, the Temperature status LED will be lit Solid Amber. This is normal behavior and does not indicate an error. At the completion of start up the Temperature Status LED will switch to Solid Green.

4 Hardware Setup Cabling Information The Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller has nine RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports, one Gigabit SFP (fiber) port, one Out-of-band Fast Ethernet management port and one Console connector. The following diagram shows each of those ports and the cables or devices attached to them. The sections that follow describe detailed connection and cabling information for each port.
Hardware Setup Gigabit Ethernet on the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller The Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller has nine RJ-45 Gigabit Ethernet ports and one Gigabit SFP (fiber optic) port. Using the RJ-45 ports requires connecting a Category-6 Ethernet cable to the port. To use the Gigabit SFP port, first install an SFP Module.
Installing Gigabit Ethernet SFPs 1 Open the bail on the transceiver. 2SHQ EDLO WR LQVHUW RU UHPRYH 6)3 WUDQVFHLYHU 2 Insert the SFP transceiver into the corresponding port on the controller. 3 Once the SFP transceivers are properly seated in their ports, close the bails to lock the transceivers in place.
Hardware Setup 4 Insert the fiber optic cables into the installed transceivers .
Connecting USB Devices The Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller contains one USB port for connecting USB flash storage devices to the controller. The controller can use the USB flash storage device for file transfers and firmware updates. Follow the setup instructions below to connect the devices to the controller and then access those devices through the Web UI or Command Line Interface. 1 Connect the USB flash drive to the USB . 2 Wait a few seconds for the drive to be recognized by the controller.
Hardware Setup Rack Mount Instructions To install the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller in a rack: 1 The rack mounting brackets are installed at the factory. No additional steps are needed. 2 Attach the brackets to the rack using screws appropriate for your rack’s mounting holes.
Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller Console Port Setup To add the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller to the network and prepare it for initial configuration: 1 Using the supplied console cable (pictured below), connect the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller serial port to an RS-232 (DB-9) serial port on a separate computer (the “configuration computer”). The pinout for the RJ-45 to DB9 cable is shown in the following table.
Hardware Setup Supplying Power to the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller 5DFN PRXQW EUDFNHW $& LQOHW V\PB 1 Plug an approved AC power cord into the power connector at the back of the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller. 2 Plug the cord into a standard AC outlet with a voltage range of 100 to 240 VAC. . WARNING! An improper shutdown can render the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller inoperable such that it could require service by Extreme Networks Support.
Verifying the Installation View the LEDs on the front panel of the Summit WM3600 wireless LAN controller to ensure the device is functioning properly. The normal LED pattern follows this path: ● During the Power On Self Test (POST), the System 1 and System 2 LEDs both blink green. ● If the POST test fails, the System 1 LED will blink amber. If the POST test succeeds, the System 1 LED will be lit solid green. ● As the software is initialized, the System 2 LED will blink green.

5 Basic Configuration This section describes how to set a minimal set of controller configuration parameters in order to launch the controller’s Web UI, login, set the required controller country code and other basic settings to ensure the controller is optimally deployed. Web UI Requirements The controller Web UI is accessed using Internet Explorer version 5.5 (or later) and SUN JRE (Java Runtime Environment) 1.5 (or later). Refer to the Sun Microsystems Web site for information on downloading JRE.
Basic Configuration Accessing the Summit WM Controller for the first time You can access the Summit WM Controller using a laptop computer with a Web browser. To access the controller using a web-enabled laptop: 1 Connect the controller’s management port to a web-enabled laptop computer using a cross-over RJ 45 Ethernet cable. NOTE The default IP address of the controller’s management port is 10.1.1.100 2 Launch your web browser. In the address bar, type http://10.1.1.100.
Defining Basic Controller Settings When initially logging into the system, the controller requests that you enter the correct country code for your region. If a country code is not configured, a warning message displays stating that an incorrect country setting will lead to the illegal use of the controller. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning electromagnetic emissions (channel range) and the maximum RF signal strength transmitted.
Basic Configuration 3 Refer the System field to define the following basic controller settings: System Name Displays the designated system name. Provide a system name serving as a reminder of the user base the controller supports (engineering, retail, etc.). Location The Location parameter serves as a reminder of where the controller can be found. Define the System Name as a specific identifier of the controller’s location.
Login: cli Username: admin Password: admin123 Once you have logged in and accessed the controller’s CLI, you can set a more sophisticated controller configuration in respect to your unique deployment requirements.
