Providing Power to the Device
After you complete the physical installation, you can power on the system.
1.
Install alternating-current (AC) power supplies in the switch. Refer to
2.
Connect AC power cables to the power supply connectors on the rear panel.
NOTE
The equipment should be installed near a power source and in an easily accessible location.
3.
Connect the power cables to the 100-240 VAC power source. The power sources should be on separate circuits to protect
against power failure. Ensure that the power cords have a minimum service loop of 6 inches available and are routed to avoid
stress.
NOTE
Power is supplied to the device as soon as the first power supply is connected.
4.
After the device has booted, verify that the power and status LEDs are green.
The power supply LEDs display amber until power-on self-test (POST) is complete, and then change to green. The switch
usually requires several minutes to boot and complete POST.
NOTE
To turn the system off, simply unplug the power cables.
For more information about how to interpret LEDs and run diagnostics tests, refer to
“Diagnostic Tests and Monitoring”
Establishing a First-Time Serial Connection
To assign an IP address, you must have access to the command line interface (CLI). The CLI is a text-based interface that can be
accessed through a direct serial connection to the device and through Telnet connections. The CLI is described in detail in the
Ruckus
FastIron Management Configuration Guide
.
Access the CLI by connecting to the RJ-45 or USB Type-C console port. After you assign an IP address, you can access the system
through Telnet, or Ruckus Network Advisor.
Perform the following steps to access the device through a serial connection.
1.
Connect the serial cable to the RJ-45 or USB Type-C console port on the front of the Ruckus ICX 7850 switch and to an
RS-232 serial port on the workstation using the RJ-45-to-DB9 adapter included in the shipping carton or a USB Type-C serial
console port cable.
For port pinout information for the console ports, refer to
