Interface Module Options

The following modules can be used with X460-G2 switches:

• VIM-2q Ethernet Module with 2x40G ports (part no. 16710).
• VIM-2ss Stacking Modules (part no. 16713).
• VIM-2t Ethernet Module with 2x10GBase-T ports (part no. 16712).
• VIM-2x Ethernet Module with 2 ports (part no. 16711).
• TM-CLK Clock Module to support Sync-E and 1588 (part no. 16715). 

Installation Site Requirements

The installation site must be within reach of the network cabling and 
meet the requirements listed below:

Appropriate grounded power receptacles must be located within six 
feet of the site.

A temperature of between 0°C (32°F) and 50°C (122°F) must be 
maintained at the installation site with fluctuations of less than 10°C 
(18°F) per hour.

Handling the Switch

To minimize the risk of ESD damage, follow appropriate ESD procedures 
when unpacking and handling the switch. These include unpacking the 
switch in an ESD safe environment and wearing appropriate ESD 
protective gear, such as ESD-safe footwear and ESD wrist straps where 
appropriate.
Unpack the switch as follows:
1

Remove the packing material protecting the switch.

2 Remove the tape seal on the non-conductive bag to remove the 

switch.

3 Perform a visual inspection of the switch for any signs of physical 

damage. Contact Extreme Networks if there are any signs of damage. 
See 

“Getting Help”

 for more information on contacting Extreme 

Networks. 

Installing the X460-G2 Switch

You can install an ExtremeSwitching or Summit X460-G2 Series switch 
in a rack. There are four possible rack mounting configurations, 
depending upon whether:

The switch I/O ports or the device’s power supply side face front.

The device is mounted flush with the rack posts or mid-mounted.

Electrical Hazard: 

Only qualified personnel should perform 

installation procedures.

Caution: 

Be sure that power is turned off to the switch before 

inserting or removing any interface module options. The VIM and 
clock module options are not hot-swappable.

Caution: 

To ensure proper ventilation and prevent overheating, 

leave a minimum clearance space of 5.1 cm (2.0 in.) on both sides of 
the device.

Warning: 

Ensure that the site's power supply provides a readily 

accessible disconnect device such as a breaker or master switch.

Caution: 

Failure to follow proper ESD handling procedures may 

result in damage to the switch.

Verify Fan Module and Power Supply Airflow

Airflow direction is always from the perspective of the cool air intake 
aisle (front of rack) to the hot air exhaust aisle (rear of rack). Airflow can 
be from either: 

The switch I/O port side to the power supply side (front to back).

The power supply side to the switch I/O port side (back to front).

Before installing the power supply into the X460-G2 switch, perform a 
visual check to ensure that both power supply and fan module airflows 
agree with the intended configuration.

Secure the X460-G2 Switches to the Rack

To secure the switches to the rack:
1

Attach the mounting brackets to the sides of the switch using six 
screws for each bracket. 

2

Align the rack mount ear holes with the front rack post holes.

3 Secure the switches to each rack post with at least two screws or 

fasteners appropriate to the rack.

Install SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+ Pluggable Transceivers

To install a transceiver in a X460-G2 Series switch:
1

Attach the ESD wrist strap. Refer to the instructions on the wrist 
strap package.

2

Carefully align the transceiver with the port slot and push the 
transceiver into the port slot until the transceiver clicks and locks into 
place.

Connect Power to the Switch

After you have installed the power supply modules, you can connect to a 
single, primary source of power, or to two sources of power for 
redundancy. To power-up your X460-G2 Series switch:
1

Attach the power cord from your redundant power supply into the 
X460-G2 Series switch’s power supply receptacle. 

2

Once power is connected, verify that the PSU LED (P1 and/or P2) 
turns green. If the PSU LED does not turn green, refer to the 

ExtremeSwitching and Summit Switches: Hardware Installation Guide

 

for troubleshooting information.

Selection of Power Cords

Extreme Networks does not include any AC power input cords. To 
purchase the correct power cord for your specific country, refer to 

www.extremenetworks.com/product/powercords/

 for power cord 

details to purchase a cord from Extreme Networks or your local supplier.

Initial Network Connection and Configuration

Check at 

ezcloudx.com/supportedhardware

 

to see what switch models can 

be managed by ExtremeCloud. If your switch is entitled for management 
by ExtremeCloud, you can optionally use the installation instructions at 

ezcloudx.com/quickstart

.

Otherwise, when you have connected power to the switch and verified LED activity, 
complete the setup process as follows:

1

Connect a management station to the console port using either an 
Ethernet to serial adapter or DB-9 serial cable.

2

Verify that the system LEDs are on (solid green or blinking green).

3 Using PuTTY, TeraTerm, or other terminal emulator, connect to the 

switch using the serial port connection. Be sure that your serial 
connection is set properly:

9600 baud

8 data bits

1 stop bit

4 Using the console session, perform the following:

a

At the password prompt, press 

ENTER

 (

RETURN

) twice. 

b Enter user: 

admin

Caution: 

Ensure that the power supply and fan module airflow are 

in the same direction in order to properly cool the installed X460-
G2 system.

Note: 

If using one power supply, it can be installed in either of the 

two power supply bays. If only one power supply is used, be sure to 
insert a blank cover on the unused power supply bay. The blank 
cover is provided with the switch. 

Caution: 

Before rack-mounting the device, ensure that the rack can 

support it without compromising stability. Otherwise, personal 
injury and/or equipment damage may result.

Note: 

The rack mounting brackets provide two holes for securing 

the switches to the rack. Use two screws or fasteners appropriate to 
your rack on each side when securing the X460-G2 Series switch to 
the rack.
It is recommended that power supplies be installed after the 
switches have been secured to the rack to minimize weight that 
must be supported when installing rack screws.

Warning: 

Fiber-optic SFP, SFP+, and QSFP+ ports use Class 1 or 

Class 1M lasers. 
LASER RADIATION
DO NOT EXPOSE USERS OF TELESCOPIC OPTICS
CLASS 1 OR 1M LASER PRODUCT
Do not use optical instruments to view the laser output. The use of 
optical instruments to view laser output increases eye hazard.

Warning: 

Extreme Networks power supplies do not have switches 

for turning the unit on and off. Disconnect all power cords to remove 
power from the device before servicing. Make sure that these 
connections are easily accessible.

Warning: 

A dedicated Listed circuit breaker rated at 15A is to be 

used for each power supply connection.

c

For the initial password, simply press 

ENTER

.

d Follow the screen prompts for initial configuration.
e

5 Go to Extreme Networks e-support at

https://esupport.extremenetworks.com

6 After logging in, go to the 

product registration page.

7

Enter the serial number of the switch.

8 Download the software to your PC from the 

software download page

.

9 Connect back to the switch using the console port and connect an 

Ethernet cable from the management port on the switch to your PC.

10 To avoid IP conflict you might need to reset the IP address on your PC 

(for example, to 

10.10.10.10 255.255.255.0

). 

11 At the switch, set the IP address of the switch. For example, enter: 

con mgmt ipa 10.10.10.9/24

12 Enter 

save config

 to save your configuration.

13 Start a TFTP session using a program such as TFTPD64. Point the 

TFTP server to your PC IP address and the ExtremeXOS image file 
saved on your PC. 

14 At the switch, download the new software. For example, enter: 

download image 10.10.10.10 summitX-nn.n.n.n-patch1-nn.xos

15 Install the software after it loads by typing 

Y

 when prompted if you 

want to install the load.

16 When the download and install have finished, reboot the switch when 

prompted. Enter: 

reboot

Optional CLI Commands

Once logged into the switch you can create new VLANs by issuing the 
following two commands:

create vlan <vlan name>

configure vlan <vlan name> tag XXXX 

  (replace XXXX with the VLAN 

tag number - options are 1-4096)

These two commands will create a VLAN, give it a logical name, and 
assign a tag number. 
To configure a Default Gateway in the Extreme Networks CLI enter: 

configure iproute add default <IP Address>
