The Switch 2810-24G and Switch 2810-48G have, respectively, 24 or 48 autosensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports, four dual-personality ports—either
auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 or mini-GBIC.
The Series 2810 Switch devices can be connected to a ProCurve 600 EPS/RPS
(J8168A) and receive full redundant power from that unit. If the internal power
supply in the switch fails, the EPS/RPS unit will immediately provide all the
power necessary to keep the switch running.

1-1

Introducing the Switch

The dual-personality ports have either auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45,
or mini-GBIC connectivity. If any of the mini-GBIC ports are used the corresponding RJ-45 port will be disabled.
These switches are designed to be used primarily as a high-density wiring
closet or desktop switch. These switches can directly connect computers,
printers, and servers to provide dedicated bandwidth to those devices, and
can build a switched network infrastructure by connecting the switch to hubs,
other switches, or routers. In addition, the Series 2810 Switch devices offer
full network management capabilities.

Four dual-personality ports. Use either the 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45
connector, or install a supported ProCurve mini-GBIC for fiber-optic
connections.
The RJ-45 connectors support the IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X feature, which
means you can use either straight-through or crossover twisted-pair
cables to connect any network device to the switch.

Dual-Personality Port Operation. By default, the RJ-45 connectors are
enabled. If a mini-GBIC is installed in a slot, it is enabled and the associated
RJ-45 connector is disabled and cannot be used. If the mini-GBIC is removed,
the associated RJ-45 port is automatically re-enabled.

Console Port
This port is used to connect a console to the Series 2810 Switch devices by
using the supplied RJ45 to DB9 cable with the switch. The console port is
located on the front of both the Switch 2810s. This connection is described
under “Connect a Console to the Switch” in chapter 2, “Installing the Switch.”
The console can be a PC or workstation running a VT-100 terminal emulator,
or a VT-100 terminal.

(green)

On
Off

The switch is receiving power.
The switch is NOT receiving power.

Fault
(orange)

Off

The normal state; indicates there are no fault conditions on the switch.

Blinking*

A fault has occurred on the switch, one of the switch ports, or the fan. The Status LED
for the component with the fault will blink simultaneously. If just the Fault LED is blinking,
the switch could be attached to an RPS but not receiving power.

On briefly after the switch is powered on or reset, at the beginning of switch self test.
If this LED is on for a prolonged time, the switch has encountered a fatal hardware
failure, or has failed its self test. See chapter 4, “Troubleshooting” for more information.

Link

Indicates the port LEDs are displaying link information:
• if the port LED is on, the port is enabled and receiving a link indication from the
connected device.
• if the port LED is off, the port has no active network cable connected, or is not
receiving link beat or sufficient light. Otherwise, the port may have been disabled
through the switch console, the web browser interface, or ProCurve Manager.
if the port LED is blinking* simultaneously with the Fault LED, the corresponding port
has failed its self test.

Introducing the Switch

To optimize the amount of information displayed for each of the switch ports
without overwhelming you with LEDs, the Series 2810 Switch devices use two
LEDs for each port. The operation of these LEDs is controlled by the LED
Mode select button, and the current setting is indicated by the LED Mode
indicator LEDs near the button. Press the button to step from one view mode
to the next.

Each port has a Link LED. If it is lit, the port has a link. If the Link LED is
blinking, the port has failed its self test. The Fault and Test LEDs will be
blinking simultaneously.

■

If the Activity (Act) indicator LED is lit, each port LED displays activity
information for the associated port—it flickers as network traffic is
received and transmitted through the port.

■

If the Full Duplex (FDx) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs light for those
ports that are operating in full duplex.

■

If the Speed (Spd) indicator LED is lit, the port LEDs behave as follows
to indicate the connection speed for the port:
•

Off = 10 Mbps

•

Blinking = 100 Mbps (the flashing behavior is a repeated on/off cycle
once every 0.5 sec.)

•

On = 1000 Mbps

The Series 2810 Switches support connectivity to a redundant power supply.
The “ProCurve Redundant and External Power Supply” (RPS/EPS) is an
accessory product for these Switches. The RPS/EPS provides redundant
power to the switch products to back up the power supply in the switch in
case of loss of AC power.

Power Connector
The Series 2810 Switch devices do not have a power switch; they are powered
on when connected to an active AC power source. These switches automatically adjust to any voltage between 100--240 volts and either 50 or 60 Hz.
No voltage range settings are required.

Switch Features
The features of the Series 2810 Switch devices include:

1-10

■

24 or 48 auto-sensing 10/100/1000Base-T RJ-45 ports.

■

four dual-personality ports—either the auto sensing 10/100/1000Base-T
RJ-45 or the mini-GBIC can be used for each port.

■

plug-and-play networking—all ports are enabled—just connect the
network cables to active network devices and your switched network is
operational.

■

both switches support an external Redundant Power Supply (RPS).

■

IEEE 802.3ab Auto MDI /MDI-X on all 10/100/1000 twisted-pair ports,
meaning that all connections can be made using straight-through
twisted-pair cables. Cross-over cables are not required, although they
will also work. The pin operation of each port is automatically adjusted
for the attached device: if the switch detects that another switch or hub
is connected to the port, it configures the port as MDI; if the switch detects
that an end-node device is connected to the port, it configures the port as
MDI-X.

■

automatic learning of the network addresses in each switch’s 8000address forwarding table, (with configurable address aging value).

■

automatically negotiated full-duplex operation for all 10/100/1000Base-T
RJ-45 ports when connected to other auto-negotiating devices—the miniGBIC ports always operate at full duplex.

■

easy management of the switch through several available interfaces:
•

console interface—a full featured, easy to use, VT-100 terminal
interface that is especially good for out-of-band switch management
or for Telnet access to the switch.

•

web browser interface—an easy to use built-in graphical interface
that can be accessed from common web browsers.

•

ProCurve Manager—an SNMP based, graphical network managent
tool you can use to manage your entire network. this product is
included with your new switch.

■

support for the Spanning Tree Protocol to eliminate network loops.

■

support for up to 2048 IEEE 802.1Q-compliant VLANs so you can divide
the attached end nodes into logical groupings that fit your business needs.

Installation Procedures

Installation Procedures
Summary
Follow these steps to install the switch. The rest of this chapter provides
details on these steps.
Prepare the installation site (page 2-5). Ensure the physical environment is properly prepared, including having the correct network cabling
ready to connect to the switch and having an appropriate location for the
switch. Please see page 2-4 for some installation precautions.

Install mini-GBICs (optional—page 2-7). The switch has four slots for
installing mini-GBICs. Depending on where you will install the switch, it
may be easier to install the mini-GBICs first. Note that mini-GBICs can be
hot swapped—they can be installed or removed while the switch is
powered on.

Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-9). Plug the switch into a
power source and observe the LEDs on the switch’s front panel that they
indicate correct switch operation.

Mount the switch (page 2-11). The Series 2810 Switch devices can be
mounted in a 19-inch telco rack, in an equipment cabinet, on a horizontal
surface, on the wall.

Connect power to the switch (page 2-14). Once the switch is mounted,
plug it into the nearby main power source.

Connect the network cables (page 2-15). Using the appropriate
network cables, connect the network devices to the switch ports.

Connect a Redundant Power Supply (RPS), (optional—page 2-16).
You may wish to use the RPS option on your Switch. To do so you must
connect the RPS using the cables supplied with the RPS, to the back of
the switch.

Connect a console to the switch (optional—page 2-19). You may wish
to modify the switch’s configuration, for example, to configure an IP
address so it can be managed using a web browser, from an SNMP network
management station, or through a Telnet session. Configuration changes
can be made easily by using the included console cable to connect a PC
to the switch’s console port.

At this point, the switch is fully installed. See the rest of this chapter if you
need more detailed information on any of these installation steps.

Installation Procedures

Installation Precautions:
Follow these precautions when installing the Series 2810 Switch devices.

WARNING

■

The rack or cabinet should be adequately secured to prevent it
from becoming unstable and/or falling over.

Installing the Switch

Devices installed in a rack or cabinet should be mounted as low as
possible, with the heaviest devices at the bottom and progressively
lighter devices installed above.

Cautions

2-4

■

For safe operation, do not install the switch with either side of the
switch facing downward.

■

For safe operation side vents cannot be placed downward.

■

Ensure the power source circuits are properly grounded, then use the
power cord supplied with the switch to connect it to the power source.

■

If your installation requires a different power cord than the one supplied
with the switch, be sure the cord is adequately sized for the switch’s
current requirements. In addition, be sure to use a power cord displaying
the mark of the safety agency that defines the regulations for power cords
in your country. The mark is your assurance that the power cord can be
used safely with the switch.

■

When installing the switch, the AC outlet should be near the switch and
should be easily accessible in case the switch must be powered off.

■

Ensure the switch does not overload the power circuits, wiring, and overcurrent protection. To determine the possibility of overloading the supply
circuits, add together the ampere ratings of all devices installed on the
same circuit as the switch and compare the total with the rating limit for
the circuit. The maximum ampere ratings are usually printed on the
devices near the AC power connectors.

■

Do not install the switch in an environment where the operating ambient
temperature might exceed 45°C (113°F).

■

Ensure the air flow around the sides and back of the switch is not
restricted.

end node) is at the other end of the
cable.

Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures

7. (Optional) Connect a Redundant Power Supply to the
Switch
The “ProCurve 600 External and Redundant Power Supply (hereafter referred
to as the RPS)” (J8168A) is an accessory product for the Series 2810 Switch
devices and specific other ProCurve switches. The RPS provides redundant
power to any one of up to six switch products, to back up the power supply
in the switch in case of loss of AC power, or a fault condition. The RPS is an
unmanaged power supply that only provides information by way of LEDs or
through the port interfaces to attached devices.
Installing the Switch

Operating Characteristics
The RPS has six connectors, each of which can provide redundant +12V power
to a connected switch, but only one connector can provide this power
at a given time. If a switch with no AC power is connected to an operating
RPS, it will NOT immediately power up this new switch. Power can only be
provided to a switch if it is first powered on and operating correctly. Then
when the power to the switch fails, power will be provided from the RPS, if it
is available, that is, if the RPS is not already providing power to a higher
priority switch. If two or more devices fail, priority goes to the device plugged
into the lower numbered port on the RPS unit. Consequently the most important switch must be plugged into port one on the RPS. In this state, the
“Connected” LED should be ON, and the “Power Status” LED should be
BLINKING. (Refer to the documentation that came with your RPS.)
Connect the RPS to the switch using one of the 6 supplied RPS cables.

RPS Operation
The RPS monitors the power signal from the switch by detecting that the RPS
is connected to a switch with an RPS cable. When the power from the switch
is no longer detected, the RPS will turn on and provide power to the switch
within 1ms.
The RPS supports hot plugging of the RPS cable without causing a reboot of
the switch or causing the power supply in either the RPS or switch to shut
down temporarily or permanently. For more information refer to the documentation that came with the RPS.

Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures

8. (Optional) Connect a Console to the Switch
The switch has a full-featured, easy to use console interface for performing
switch management tasks including the following:
■

Monitor switch and port status and observe network activity statistics

■

Modify the switch’s configuration to optimize switch performance,
enhance network traffic control, and improve network security

■

Read the event log and access diagnostic tools to help in troubleshooting

■

Download new software to the switch

■

Add passwords to control access to the switch from the console, web
browser interface, and network management stations

■

Out-of-band: The switch comes with a serial cable for connecting a PC
or VT-100 terminal, to be used as a console, directly to the switch.The
console cable is a DB-9 to RJ45 connector.

■

In-Band: Access the console using Telnet from a PC or UNIX station on
the network, and a VT-100 terminal emulator. This method requires that
you first configure the switch with an IP address and subnet mask by using
either out-of-band console access or through DHCP/Bootp. For more
information on IP addressing and on starting a Telnet session, see
chapter 3, “Configuring the Switch”, and the Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site
www.procurve.com.

The Switch can simultaneously support one out-of-band console session
through the Console Port and one in-band Telnet console session.

Terminal Configuration
To connect a console to the switch, configure the PC terminal emulator as a
DEC VT-100 (ANSI) terminal or use a VT-100 terminal, and configure either
one to operate with these settings:
•

Installation Procedures

If you want to operate the console using a different configuration, make sure
you change the settings on both the terminal and on the switch so they are
compatible. Change the switch settings first, save your changes, then change
the terminal settings, then reboot the switch and reestablish the console
session.

Direct Console Access
To connect a console to the
switch, follow these steps:

Installing the Switch

Connect the PC or
terminal to the switch’s
Console Port using the
console cable included
with the Switch. (If your
PC or terminal has a 25-pin
serial connector, first
attach a 9-pin to 25-pin
straight-through adapter
at one end of the console
cable.)
Turn on the terminal or
PC’s power and, if using a
PC, start the PC terminal
program.

The Switch is designed to be used primarily as a desktop switch to which end
nodes, printers and other peripherals, and servers are directly connected, as
shown in the above illustration. Notice that the end node devices are
connected to the switch by “straight-through” or “crossover” twisted-pair
cables. Either cable type can be used because of the “IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X”
features on the Switch.

The Switch also works well as a segment switch. That is, with its high
performance, it can be used for interconnecting network segments—simply
connect the network hubs that form those segments to the switch, or you can
also connect other switches.
In the illustration above, two “Fast” Ethernet hubs with PCs, printers, and local
servers attached, are both connected to a Switch. The devices attached to the
two hubs can now communicate with each other through the switch. They can
also all communicate with the server that is connected to a 1000Base-T port
on the switch.

2-22

Installing the Switch
Sample Network Topologies

Because the Switch has the “IEEE Auto MDI/MDI-X” features, the connections
between the switch and the hubs, and between the switch and end nodes or
servers can be through category 5 “straight-through” or “crossover” twistedpair cable. Category 3 or 4 cable can also be used if the connection is 10 Mbps
only. In all cases, the device ports must be configured to auto negotiate the
link characteristics for this feature to work.
The switch, in turn, can be connected to a network backbone through fiberoptic cabling connected to a Gigabit-SX, -LX, or -LH mini-GBIC installed in the
switch. Now, all the devices on these network segments can access other
network resources that are connected elsewhere on the network backbone.

The simpler desktop and segment networks shown in the previous two
examples can easily be combined and expanded. For example, you could use
a ProCurve Switch 5304xl to interconnect each of your smaller switched
workgroups to form a larger switched network. All the devices in this network
can communicate with each other. With a Gigabit-SX Module, for example, in
the Switch 5304xl, the entire switched topology could be connected to a
campus backbone, as shown in the illustration above.

the Switch 5304xl.

Stacking the Switch
The Series 2810 Switch devices can be connected together, through standard
network connections, and managed through a single IP address. Up to 16
switches can be connected together in such a “virtual stack”.

You identify the switch as the “Commander” and give that switch an IP address.
Up to 15 other switches in the network can then easily be configured as
Members of the stack and managed through the Commander’s IP address. The
management includes Telnet access and web browser interface access to the
Commander and to each Member switch through the Commander.

Sample Network Topologies

The Switch in a Redundant Topology
The redundant topology increases the availability of a single switch by
protecting against single points of failure with the use of redundant switches
and power supplies (RPS).
All hardware and paths are redundant. If any hardward failure occurs, I/O
communication can still be completed through another path.

Configuring the Switch
This chapter is a guide for using the console Switch Setup screen to quickly
assign an IP (Internet Protocol) address and subnet mask to the switch, set a
Manager password, and, optionally, configure other basic features.
For more information on using the switch console and the other switch
management interfaces: the web browser interface, please see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site
www.procurve.com.

Recommended Minimal Configuration

Many other features can be configured through the switch’s console interface,
to optimize the switch’s performance, to enhance your control of the network
traffic, and to improve network security. Once an IP address has been configured on the switch, these features can be accessed more conveniently through
a remote Telnet session, through the switch’s web browser interface, and from
an SNMP network management station running a network management
program. For a listing of switch features available with and without an IP
address, refer to “How IP Addressing Affects Switch Operation” in the
Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve
Web site www.procurve.com.
For more information on IP addressing, refer to “IP Configuration” in the
Management and Configuration Guide.

3-1

Configuring the Switch

In the factory default configuration, the switch has no IP (Internet Protocol)
address and subnet mask, and no passwords. In this state, it can be managed
only through a direct console connection. To manage the switch through inband (networked) access, you should configure the switch with an IP address
and subnet mask compatible with your network. Also, you should configure
a Manager password to control access privileges from the console and web
browser interface. Other parameters in the Switch Setup screen can be left at
their default settings or you can configure them with values you enter.

Configuring the Switch

Note

By default, the switch is configured to acquire an IP address configuration
from a DHCP or Bootp server. To use DHCP/Bootp instead of the manual
method described in this chapter, see “DHCP/Bootp Operation” in the
Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve
Web site www.procurve.com.

Using the Console Setup Screen
The quickest and easiest way to minimally configure the switch for management and password protection in your network is to use a direct console
connection to the switch, start a console session, and access the Switch Setup
screen.
1.

Using the method described in the preceding section, connect a terminal
device to the switch and display the switch console command (CLI)
prompt (the default display).
The CLI prompt appears displaying the switch model number,
for example:
ProCurve Switch 2810-24G#
At the prompt, enter the setup command to display the Switch Setup
screen. The following illustration shows the Setup screen with the default
settings.

Use the [Tab] key to select the Manager Password field and enter a manager
password of up to 16 characters.

Where to Go From Here
The above procedure configures your switch with a Manager password, IP
address, and subnet mask. As a result, with the proper network connections,
you can now manage the switch from a PC equipped with Telnet or a web
browser interface.
Some basic information on managing your switch is included in the next
section. For more information on the console, web browser, and SNMP
management interfaces and all the features that can be configured on the
Series 2810 Switch devices, please see the Management and Configuration
Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site www.procurve.com.

Configuring the Switch
Using the IP Address for Remote Switch Management

Using the IP Address for Remote Switch
Management
With the Series 2810 Switch devices, you can use the switch’s IP address to
manage the switch from any PC that is on the same subnet as the switch. You
can use either a Telnet session or a standard web browser to manage the
switch.

Starting a Telnet Session
To access the switch through a Telnet session, follow these steps:
1.

Make sure the switch is configured with an IP address and that the switch
is reachable from the PC that is running the Telnet session (for example,
by using a Ping command to the switch’s IP address).

Start the Telnet program on a PC that is on the same subnet as the switch
and connect to the switch’s IP address.

You will see the copyright page and the message “Press any key to
continue”. Press a key, and you will then see the switch console command
(CLI) prompt, for example:

Enter help or ? to see a list of commands that can be executed at the
prompt. Entering any command followed by help provides more detailed
context help information about the command. Entering any command
followed by ? displays a list of options that are available at that point in
the command entry.

Starting a Web Browser Session
The Series 2810 Switch devices, can be managed through a graphical interface
that you can access from any PC or workstation on the network by running
your web browser and typing in the switch’s IP address as the URL. No
additional software installation is required to make this interface available; it
is included in the switch’s onboard software.
A typical web browser interface screen is shown in the next illustration.

Troubleshooting
This chapter describes how to troubleshoot the Series 2810 Switch devices.
This document describes troubleshooting mostly from a hardware perspective. You can perform more in-depth troubleshooting on the Series 2810 Switch
devices using the software tools available with the switch, including the fullfeatured console interface, the built-in web browser interface. For more
information, see the chapter “Troubleshooting” in the Management and
Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site
www.procurve.com.
This chapter describes the following:
■

basic troubleshooting tips (page 4-1)

■

diagnosing with the LEDs (page 4-4)

■

Proactive Networking tools (page 4-8)

■

hardware diagnostic tests (page 4-9)

■

restoring the factory default configuration (page 4-11)

■

downloading new software to the Series 2810 Switch devices (page 4-12)

■

HP Customer Support Services (page 4-12)

Basic Troubleshooting Tips
Most problems are caused by the following situations. Check for these items
first when starting your troubleshooting:
■

•

If the connected device is also configured to Auto, the switch will
automatically negotiate both link speed and communication mode.

•

If the connected device has a fixed configuration, for example
100 Mbps, at half or full duplex, the switch will automatically sense
the link speed, but will default to a communication mode of half
duplex.

4-1

Troubleshooting

Connecting to devices that have a fixed full-duplex configuration.
The RJ-45 ports are configured as “Auto”. That is, when connecting to
attached devices, the switch will operate in one of two ways to determine
the link speed and the communication mode (half duplex or full duplex):

Troubleshooting
Basic Troubleshooting Tips

Because the Series 2810 Switch devices behave in this way (in compliance with the IEEE 802.3 standard), if a device connected to the switch
has a fixed configuration at full duplex, the device will not connect
correctly to the switch. The result will be high error rates and very
inefficient communications between the switch and the device.
Make sure all devices connected to the Series 2810 Switch devices are
configured to auto negotiate, or are configured to connect at half duplex
(all hubs are configured this way, for example).
■

Faulty or loose cables. Look for loose or obviously faulty connections.
If they appear to be OK, make sure the connections are snug. If that does
not correct the problem, try a different cable.

■

Non-standard cables. Non-standard and miswired cables may cause
network collisions and other network problems, and can seriously impair
network performance. Use a new correctly-wired cable or compare your
cable to the cable in appendix B, “Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs”
on page 5 for pinouts and correct cable wiring. A category 5 cable tester
is a recommended tool for every 100Base-TX and 1000Base-T network
installation.

■

Improper Network Topologies. It is important to make sure you have
a valid network topology. Common topology faults include excessive
cable length and excessive repeater delays between end nodes. If you have
network problems after recent changes to the network, change back to
the previous topology. If you no longer experience the problems, the new
topology is probably at fault. Sample topologies are shown at the end of
chapter 2 in this book, and some topology configuration guidelines can
be found on the ProCurve Web site, www.procurve.com.
In addition, you should make sure that your network topology contains
no data path loops. Between any two end nodes, there should be only
one active cabling path at any time. Data path loops will cause broadcast
storms that will severely impact your network performance.

Troubleshooting

For your Series 2810 Switch devices, if you wish to build redundant paths
between important nodes in your network to provide some fault tolerance, you should enable Spanning Tree Protocol support on the switch.
This ensures that only one of the redundant paths is active at any time,
thus avoiding data path loops. Spanning Tree can be enabled through the
switch console or the web browser interface.
The Series 2810 Switch devices also supports Trunking, which allows
multiple network cables to be used for a single network connection
without causing a data path loop. For more information on Spanning Tree
and Trunking, see the Management and Configuration Guide, which is
available on the ProCurve Web site www.procurve.com.

4-2

Troubleshooting
Basic Troubleshooting Tips
■

Check the port configuration. A port on your Switch may not be
operating as you expect because it has been put into a “blocking” state by
Spanning Tree, GVRP (automatic VLANs), or LACP (automatic trunking).
(Note that the normal operation of the Spanning Tree, GVRP, and LACP
features may put the port in a blocking state.) Or, the port just may have
been configured as disabled through software.
Use the switch console to determine the port’s configuration and verify
that there is not an improper or undesired configuration of any of the
switch features that may be affecting the port. For more information, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the
ProCurve Web site www.procurve.com.

For more information on possible network problems and their solutions, refer
to the technical note “Troubleshooting LAN Performance and Intermittent
Connectivity Problems”, which can be found on the ProCurve Web site,
www.procurve.com, in the Information Library section.

Diagnostic Tips:
Problem

Solution

➊

The switch is not
plugged into an
active AC power
source, or the
switch’s power
supply may have
failed and the
RPS is powering
the switch.

1. Verify the power cord is plugged into an active power source and to the switch. Make
sure these connections are snug.
2. Is an RPS device connected to the switch? If so, refer to your RPS documentation.
3. Try power cycling the switch by unplugging and plugging the power cord back in.
4. If the Power LED is still not on, verify that the AC power source works by plugging
another device into the outlet. Or try plugging the switch into a different outlet or try a
different power cord.
If the power source and power cord are OK and this condition persists, the switch power
supply may have failed. Call your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic
support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty booklet
for more information.

➋

A switch
hardware failure
has occurred. All
the LEDs will stay
on indefinitely.

Try power cycling the switch. If the fault indication reoccurs, the switch may have failed.
Call your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from
ProCurve to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty booklet for more
information.

➌

The switch has
experienced a
software failure
during self test.

1. Try resetting the switch by pressing the Reset button on the front of the switch, or by
power cycling the switch.
2. If the fault indication reoccurs, attach a console to the switch (as indicated in chapter
2) and configure it to operate at 9600 baud. Then, reset the switch. Messages should
appear on the console screen and in the console log identifying the error condition.
You can view the console log at that point by selecting it from the console Main Menu.
If necessary to resolve the problem, contact your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use
the electronic support services from HP to get assistance. See the Customer Support/
Warranty booklet for more information.

➍

One or more of
the switch
cooling fans may

Try disconnecting power from the switch and wait a few moments. Then reconnect the
power to the switch and check the LEDs again. If the error indication reoccurs, one or
more of the fans has failed. The Switch 2810 has three fans and may continue to operate
under this condition if the ambient temperature does not exceed normal room
temperature, but for best operation, the switch should be replaced. Contact your
ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services from ProCurve
to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty booklet for more information.

failure.

Try power cycling the switch. If the fault indication reoccurs, the switch port may have
failed. Call your ProCurve authorized LAN dealer, or use the electronic support services
from ProCurve to get assistance. See the Customer Support/Warranty booklet for more
information.
If the port is a mini-GBIC, verify that it is one of the mini-GBICs supported by the switch.
Unsupported mini-GBICs will be identified with this fault condition. The supported miniGBICs are listed in Chapter 2, “Installing the Switch” on page 2-7. The mini-GBICs are
also tested when they are “hot-swapped”—installed or changed while the switch is
powered on.
To verify the port has failed, try removing and reinstalling the mini-GBIC without having
to power off the switch. If the port fault indication reoccurs, you will have to replace the
mini-GBIC.

The network
connection is not
working
properly.

Try the following procedures:
• For the indicated port, verify both ends of the cabling, at the switch and the connected
device, are connected properly.
• Verify the connected device and switch are both powered on and operating correctly.
• Verify you have used the correct cable type for the connection:
– For twisted-pair connections to the fixed 10/100/1000-T ports, if the port is
configured to “Auto” (auto negotiate), either straight-through or crossover cables
can be used because of the switch’s Auto MDI/MDI-X feature of the 10/100/1000-T
port.
Note: If the switch port configuration is changed to one of the fixed configuration
options (for example, 100 Mbps/Full Duplex), then the port operates as MDI-X only
and you must use the correct type of cable for the connection. In general, for
connecting an end node (MDI port) to the switch, use straight-through cable; for
connecting to MDI-X ports on hubs, other switches, and routers, use crossover
cable.

– For fiber-optic connections, verify that the transmit port on the switch is connected
to the receive port on the connected device, and the switch receive port is
connected to the transmit port on the connected device.
For the dual-personality 10/100/1000-T ports, be sure a mini-GBIC is not installed in the
associated slot.
For 1000Base-T connections, verify that the network cabling complies with the IEEE
802.3ab standard. the cable should be installed according to the ANSI/TIA/EIA-568A-5 specifications. Cable testing should comply with the stated limitations for Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk, Far-End Crosstalk, Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT),
Multiple Disturber ELFEXT, and Return Loss.
The cable verification process must include all patch cables from any end devices,
including the switch, to any patch panels in the cabling path.
Verify the port has not been disabled through a switch configuration change.
You can use the console interface, or, if you have configured an IP address on the
switch, use the web browser interface to determine the state of the port and re-enable
the port if necessary.
Verify the switch port configuration matches the configuration of the attached device.
For example, if the switch port is configured as “Auto”, the port on the attached device
also MUST be configured as “Auto”. Depending on the port type, twisted-pair or fiberoptic, if the configurations don’t match, the results could be a very unreliable connection, or no link at all.
If the other procedures don’t resolve the problem, try using a different port or a different
cable.

The port may be
improperly
configured, or
the port may be in
a “blocking”
state by the
normal operation
of the Spanning
Tree, LACP, or
IGMP features.

Use the switch console to see if the port is part of a dynamic trunk (through the LACP
feature) or to see if Spanning Tree is enabled on the switch, and to see if the port may
have been put into a “blocking” state by those features. The show lacp command displays
the port status for the LACP feature; the show spanning-tree command displays the port
status for Spanning Tree.
Also check the Port Status screen using the show interfaces command to see if the port
has been configured as “disabled”.
Other switch features that may affect the port operation include VLANs and IGMP. Use
the switch console to see how the port is configured for these features.
For software troubleshooting tips, see the chapter “Troubleshooting” in the Management
and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site

recommending network configuration changes to enhance the performance of your network

The following interfaces provide tests, indicators, and an event log that can
be used to monitor the switch and its network connections and to help you
take advantage of these proactive networking features:
■

A graphical web browser interface that you can use to manage your switch
from a PC running a supported web browser, for example Microsoft
Internet Explorer, and Netscape Communicator.

■

A full-featured easy-to-use console interface that you can access by
connecting a standard terminal or PC running a terminal emulator to the
switch’s console port. The cable to make that connection is provided with
your switch. The console interface is also accessible through a Telnet
connection.

Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests

Hardware Diagnostic Tests
Testing the Switch by Resetting It
If you believe the switch is not operating correctly, you can reset the switch
to test its circuitry and operating code. To reset a switch, either:
■

Unplug and plug in the power cord (power cycling)

■

Press the Reset button on the front of the switch

Power cycling the switch and pressing the Reset button both cause the switch
to perform its power-on self test, which almost always will resolve any
temporary operational problems. These reset processes also cause any
network traffic counters to be reset to zero, and cause the System Up Time
timer to reset to zero.

Checking the Switch LEDs
The self test passes if the Fault and Test LEDs on the front of the switch go
off after approximately 50 seconds. If these LEDs stay on longer than 60
seconds or begin blinking, there may be a problem with the switch.
See “Diagnosing With the LEDs” on page 4-4 for information on interpreting
the LED patterns and LED behaviors in chapter one.

Checking Console Messages
Useful diagnostic messages may be displayed on the console screen when the
switch is reset. To connect a PC running a VT-100 terminal emulator program
or a standard VT-100 terminal to the switch’s Console Port and configure it to
run at 9600 baud, and with the other terminal communication settings shown
on page 2-19. Then, when you reset the switch, note the messages that are
displayed. Additionally, you can check the switch event log, which can be
accessed from the console using the show log command, or from the console
Main Menu.

Troubleshooting
Hardware Diagnostic Tests

Testing Twisted-Pair Cabling
Network cables that fail to provide a link or provide an unreliable link between
the switch and the connected network device may not be compatible with the
IEEE 802.3 Type 10Base-T, 100Base-TX, or 1000Base-T standards. The twistedpair cables attached to the Switch must be compatible with the appropriate
standards. To verify your cable is compatible with these standards, use a
qualified cable test device.

Testing Switch-to-Device Network Communications
You can perform the following communication tests to verify the network is
operating correctly between the switch and any connected device that can
respond correctly to the communication test.
■

Link Test -- a physical layer test that sends IEEE 802.2 test packets to any
device identified by its MAC address

■

Ping Test -- a network layer test used on IP networks that sends test
packets to any device identified by its IP address

These tests can be performed through the switch console interface from a
terminal connected to the switch or through a Telnet connection, or from the
switch’s web browser interface. For more information, see the Management
and Configuration Guide, which is available on the ProCurve Web site
www.procurve.com.

Testing End-to-End Network Communications

Troubleshooting

Both the switch and the cabling can be tested by running an end-to-end
communications test -- a test that sends known data from one network device
to another through the switch. For example, if you have two PCs on the
network that have LAN adapters between which you can run a link-level test
or Ping test through the switch, you can use this test to verify that the entire
communication path between the two PCs is functioning correctly. See your
LAN adapter documentation for more information on running a link test or
Ping test.

Troubleshooting
Restoring the Factory Default Configuration

Restoring the Factory Default
Configuration
As part of your troubleshooting process on the Switch, it may become necessary to return the switch configuration to the factory default settings. This
process momentarily interrupts the switch operation, clears any passwords,
clears the console event log, resets the network counters to zero, performs a
complete self test, and reboots the switch into its factory default configuration
including deleting the IP address, if one is configured.

Note

This process removes all switch configuration changes you have made from
the factory default settings. This includes, for example, configuration of
VLANs, Spanning Tree, trunks, and stacking. Returning the configuration of
these features to their factory default settings (usually disabling them) may
result in network connectivity issues.
If the switch has a valid configuration, and you are restoring the factory default
settings for a reason other than configuration problems, you should save the
switch configuration prior to performing the factory default reset. Then, after
the reset and resolution of the original problem, you can restore the saved
configuration to the switch. For both the save and restore processes, you can
use the console copy command. For more information on this command, see
the Management and Configuration Guide, which is available on the
ProCurve Web site www.procurve.com.
You can restore the factory default configuration either on the switch itself,
or through the switch console.
To execute the factory default reset on the switch, perform these steps:
Using pointed objects, simultaneously press both the Reset and Clear
buttons on the front of the switch.

Continue to press the Clear button while releasing the Reset button.

When the Test LED begins to blink, release the Clear button.
The switch will then complete its self test and begin operating with its
configuration restored to the factory default settings.

To restore the factory default configuration using the console, execute the
erase startup-config command from the console command prompt.

Note

Switch Ports and Network Cables

Because of the increased speed provided by 1000Base-T (Gigabit-T), network
cable quality is more important than for either 10Base-T or 100Base-TX.
Cabling plants being used to carry 1000Base-T networking must comply with
the IEEE 802.3ab standards. In particular, the cabling must pass tests for
Attenuation, Near-End Crosstalk (NEXT), and Far-End Crosstalk (FEXT).
Additionally, unlike the cables for 100Base-TX, the 1000Base-T cables must
pass tests for Equal-Level Far-End Crosstalk (ELFEXT) and Return Loss.

Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX

Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for
Gigabit-LX
The following information applies to installations in which multimode fiberoptic cables are connected to a Gigabit-LX port.

Gigabit-LX mini-GBICs, since they are designed to operate with both singlemode and multimode cable, do not provide the transmission conditioning
internally. Thus, under certain circumstances, depending on the cable used
and the lengths of the cable runs, an external Mode Conditioning Patch
Cord may need to be installed between the Gigabit-LX transmitting device
and the multimode network cable to provide the transmission conditioning.
If you experience a high number of transmission errors on the Gigabit-LX
ports, usually CRC or FCS errors, you may need to install one of these patch
cords between the Gigabit-LX port in your switch and your multimode fiberoptic network cabling, and between the Gigabit-LX transmission device and
the network cabling at the other end of the multimode fiber-optic cable run.
A patch cord must be installed at both ends.
The patch cord consists of a short length of single-mode fiber cable coupled
to graded-index multimode fiber cable on the transmit side, and only multimode cable on the receive side. The section of single-mode fiber is connected
in such a way that it minimizes the effects of the differential mode delay in the
multimode cable.

Note

Most of the time, if you are using good quality graded-index multimode fiber
cable that adheres to the standards listed on page 2-6, there should not be a
need to use mode conditioning patch cords in your network. This is especially
true if the fiber runs in your network are relatively short.
If you are using single-mode fiber-optic cabling in your network, there is no
need to use mode conditioning patch cords. Connect the single-mode network
cable directly to the Gigabit-LX mini-GBIC.

B-3

Switch Ports and Network
Cables

Unlike Gigabit-SX, which connects to only multimode fiber-optic cabling,
Gigabit-LX can use either single-mode or multimode cable. Multimode cable
has a design characteristic called “Differential Mode Delay”, which requires
that the transmission signals be “conditioned” to compensate for the cable
design and thus prevent resulting transmission errors. Since Gigabit-SX is
designed to operate only with multimode cable, Gigabit-SX mini-GBICs can
provide that transmission conditioning internally.

Switch Ports and Network Cables
Mode Conditioning Patch Cord for Gigabit-LX

Installing the Patch Cord
As shown in the illustration below, connect the patch cord to the Gigabit-LX
mini-GBIC with the section of single-mode fiber plugged in to the Tx (transmit)
port. Then, connect the other end of the patch cord to your network cabling
patch panel, or directly to the network multimode fiber.

If you connect the patch cord directly to the network cabling, you may need
to install a female-to-female adapter to allow the cables to be connected
together.

Switch Ports and Network Cables
Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs

Twisted-Pair Cable/Connector Pin-Outs
If you connect a Series 2810 Switch device’s twisted-pair port to another
switch or hub, which typically have MDI-X ports, the Series 2810 Switch device
port automatically operates as an MDI port. If you connect it to an end node,
such as a server or PC, which typically have MDI ports, the Series 2810 Switch
device’s port operates as an MDI-X port. In all cases, you can use standard
straight through cables or crossover cables.

Note

Using Fixed Configurations. If the port configuration is changed to any of
the fixed configurations though, for example 100 Mbps/full duplex, the port
operates as MDI-X only and the correct cable type must be used: for connections to MDI ports, such as end nodes, use a straight-through cable; for
connections to MDI-X ports, such as on hubs and other switches, use a
crossover cable.

Other Wiring Rules:
■

All twisted-pair wires used for 10 Mbps, and 100 Mbps operation must be
twisted through the entire length of the cable. The wiring sequence must
conform to EIA/TIA 568-B (not USOC). See “Twisted-Pair Cable Pin
Assignments” later in this appendix for a listing of the signals used on each
pin.

■

For 1000Base-T connections, all four pairs of wires in the cable must be
available for data transmission. See “Note on 1000Base-T Cable Requirements” on page B-1 for more information on 1000Base-T cabling.

■

For 10 Mbps connections to the ports, you can use Category 3, 4, or 5
unshielded twisted-pair cable, as supported by the IEEE 802.3 Type
10Base-T standard.

■

For 100 Mbps connections to the ports, use 100-ohm Category 5 UTP or
STP cable only, as supported by the IEEE 802.3u Type 100Base-TX standard.

■

For 1000 Mbps connections, 100-ohm Category 5e or better cabling is
recommended.
