Structure of the Installation Guide
This guide has the following three sections:
Section I: Hardware Overview
The chapters in this section describe the hardware components of the
product, including the Ethernet line cards, AT-SBx81CFC960
Controller Fabric Card, and power supplies. You should start here if
you are unfamiliar with the switch. A basic understanding of the
hardware may help you avoid making mistakes during the installation
procedures.
Section II: Installing the Chassis
The chapters in this section contain the hardware installation
instructions for the device. They explain how to select a site, assemble
the hardware components, cable the ports, power on the unit, and
confirm the hardware operations of the various components. After
completing the instructions in this section, you may either begin to
configure the operating parameters and features of the chassis with
the commands in the command line interface of the AlliedWare Plus
™
operating systems, as described in the Software Reference for
SwitchBlade x8100 Series Switches, or proceed to Section III to build
a stack of two chassis with the VCStack Plus
™
feature.
Section III: Building a Stack with the VCStack Plus Feature
The chapters in this section describe the VCStack Plus feature and the
additional hardware and software components required to build a
stack. The section also contains step-by-step instructions on how to
configure the AlliedWare Plus operating systems on the switches for
the stacking feature. You should perform these instructions after you
have installed the two chassis of the stack at their respective sites and
confirmed their operations with the instructions in the chapters in
Section II of this guide. You might want to review the information in
Chapter 15, “VCStack Plus Overview” on page 301 prior to installing
the chassis to acquaint yourself with the feature and guidelines.
