4. GETTING STARTED
4 Getting started
This section describes the sequence of steps to get started with the TTE-Switch A664 Lab v2.0.
1. Make sure the switch is connected to a power outlet and switched off.
2. Connect an RS-232 connector to the RS-232 serial interface on the back panel of the switch (see
also Appendix B).
The settings for serial communication are: 19200 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no parity, no handshake.
3. Connect the DB-25P configuration plug to the DB-25S CONFIG interface on the front panel of the
switch.
4. On the DB-25P configuration plug, use the following dip switch positions to load the default configu-
ration of Position 0:
Dip Switch Position
Con_Sel_0 OFF
Con_Sel_1 ON
Con_Sel_2 ON
Con_Sel_3 ON
Con_Sel_4 ON
Con_Sel_5 ON
Shop-Mode OFF
Maintenance OFF
Grnd-Mode ON
5. Turn on the power switch.
On start-up, all status LEDs are briefly turned on, which changes during the switch start-up
sequence (see Table 1 on page 11).
When the switch has successfully finished start-up, the POWER LED and the STATUS LED are
solid green. As the switch default configuration was selected for start-up, the DEF. CONF LED
is solid green as well.
See Appendix B for the serial terminal output during start-up.
In the Operational state the switch provides information via SNMP. In SHOP mode, it is possible to
retrieve more detailed information via serial terminal.
6. Connect a host PC directly to one of the 24 front-panel ports using a standard Cat5 or Cat5e patch
cable.
Set the IP address of the host PC to the same subnet as the switch, for example to 10.10.10.20.
Set the subnet mask of the host PC to 255.255.255.0.
Set the transmission speed to 100 Mbps Full Duplex and make sure auto-negotiation is acti-
vated.
7. To verify that the switch is operational, open the CLI window, type ping 10.10.10.10 and press
Enter . If no data packet was lost, the ping was successful.
