Step 1 Rack Mount iBypass 40G Switch Install the iBypass 40G Switch into a standard 19-inch equipment rack. The switch is designed to occupy one rack unit. Do the following to install the iBypass 40G 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 3. 3.

Step 2 Connect Power Ensure the iBypass 40G Switch is grounded before connecting power. Do the following to connect and apply power to the iBypass 40G 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 4. 2. For redundancy, plug the other power cord to the iBypass 40G. Plug the other end to a source independent from the first power source. The Power LEDs on the front illuminate.

Step 3 Connect Options You have two ways of logging in to the iBypass 40G switch. Option 1 - Connect PC to Management Port 1. Connect a PC whose IP address is on the same subnet as the iBypass switch. The default address on the switch is: IP Address: 10.60.4.180 Mask - 255.0.0.0 Gateway - 10.0.0.1 2. Connect a Cat 5e cable from your PC’s Ethernet port to the iBypass Management port. See Figure 5. 3. Open a terminal window and ping 10.60.4.180 to confirm the connection. 4.
8. Go to Configure the IP section and follow the instructions to set a new IP address. For more information about using the iBypass 40G Switch CLI, enter help to display command information or see the iBypass 40G Switch User Guide for more details.
Step 3 (cont.) Option 2 - Connect PC to the Console Port 1. Connect a PC running terminal emulation software to the iBypass 40G Switch Console port with the supplied DB9-RJ45 console cable. See Figure 6. 2. Launch the terminal emulation software, such as HyperTerminal or minicom, and set the communication parameters to 115,200 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, and no flow control. 3. At the prompt, enter admin for the user and netoptics for the password. 4.

Step 4 Configure the IP The iBypass 40G switch ships with a default address. You can decide to use the default address, assign a static IPv4 or IPv6 IP address or use DHCP to assign an address. To configure the system with a static IPv4 or IPv6 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 where is the IPv4 address 3.
Do the following to configure the system to use a DHCP address: 1. At the CLI prompt, type set network mode dhcp. 2. At the next prompt, type reboot host 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.
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 or on the same subnet, and enter the default IP address in the URL, https://10.60.4.180. 2. At the iBypass log in banner page, enter Username admin and Password netoptics. The Home page displays. See Figure 7. 3. At the Home page, click on the Configuration tab. The Configuration page displays. See Figure 8. 4.

Step 5 Connect to the Network The iBypass 40G Switch Network ports require 40G MTP cables. Network port A to a network switch or router Network port B to a network switch or router Figure 10 - MTP Cables to the Network 1. Connect Network Port A to a network device with a 40G MTP cable. 2. Connect Network Port B to another network device using another 40G MTP cable. 3. Verify that the Network ports are cabled in-line between two network devices. 4.
Step 6 Connect Monitoring Tools Do the following to connect monitoring tools to the iBypass 40G Switch: Insert transceiver to Monitor port 1 Insert transceiver to Monitor port 2 Figure 11 - QSFP Connections to the Monitoring Tools 1. Insert QSFP+ transceivers into Monitor port 1 and Monitor port 2. 2. Connect a cable to Monitor port 1 transceiver and connect the other end to a monitoring tool. 3.
