# 2.3 Inserting and Removing the Switch Sled

Refer to the chapter Assembling the CSA-7400 of the CSA-7400 User’s Manual for instructions on inserting and removing the MXN-4100 Switch Sled.

# 3 Powering Up the Switch Sled

# 3.1 Power-Up Behavior

When power is supplied to the CSA-7400, all components will power up automatically. The behavior of the system when powered up is described below.

1. Cooling fans start speeding up as soon as power is applied to the system.
2. Power LEDs of both CPU and switch nodes turn ON (green).
3. CPU nodes start booting up: The status LED turns ON (red), indicating BIOS POST status. After BIOS POST is completed, the status LED changes from red to green, Indicating system status
Note: The BMC Watchdog timeout will turn off the status LED. If the BMC watchdog is not enabled, the green status LED will stay on.
4. After a few seconds, the switch node A/S LED turns ON (steady or blinking) indicating CM Active/Standby status.

# 3.2 Health/Status Indicators and Buttons

This section covers all of the LEDs on the MXN-4100 as show below.

# 4 Using the Switch Sled

On the CSA-7400 platform, the switch sleds are shipped with a pre-installed operating systems and the CPU sleds are shipped without a pre-installed operating system. This chapter covers how to run the MXN-4100’s operating system.

# 4.1 Login to the Switch System

The switch sled is shipped with an operating system pre-installed on the COMe module. Users can login to the system through the following modes.

• Via USB Serial Port
• Local login
Via Network Port

# 4.1.1 Login Via Serial Port

# Step 1

Connect a PC to the USB port labeled “SER” on the front panel of the MXN-4100 with a USB-to-USB cable.

![Front view of a server rack with hexagonal ventilation grilles, connected modules, and a highlighted internal component (no text or symbols visible)](.mxn-4100-50-1z270-1000-10/b57601efaebc777ef9c68e68c3deb10510b17033f280efd26f2144beff18992d.jpg)

# Step 2

Install the USB-serial chip driver “CDM v2.12.06 WHQL Certified.zip” or “CDM v2.12.06 WHQL Certified\_64.zip” on the PC. Check the COM number in the Device Manager.

# Step 4

Input the user name “root” and password “adlink” to login to the system on the COMe module.

# 4.1.2 Local Login

The MXN-4100 COMe BIOS default setting does not enable the VGA display. Therefore, the first login to the MXN-4100 must be via the serial port: To enable local login using the VGA display:

1. Perform steps 1 to 3 of 4.1.1 Login Via Serial Port above. In step 3, click the “Open” button as soon as possible after powering on the system.
2. During the POST sequence, (when the screen begins receiving output), press the &lt;ESC&gt; or &lt;Del&gt; key to enter the BIOS setup.

Connect the MXN-4100 to a monitor using the VGA connector on the front panel. Login to the system on the COMe module with the user name “root” and password “adlink”.

# 4.1.3 Via Network Port

# Step 1

Connect the LAN port (“A”)of the COMe module to the DHCP server.

![Front view of a server rack with hexagonal network, ports, and connectors (no visible text or labels)](.mxn-4100-50-1z270-1000-10/0611cd20e26a3e26f3f4248a2285713af02f645264312c25707110f61bf10588.jpg)

# Step 2

Open an SSH tool (such as PuTTY) and input the host name “172.20.2.23” (you can login to the system on COMe module via serial port to confirm the IP address).

# Step 3

Input the user name “root” and password “adlink” to login to the system on the COMe module.

# 4.2 Switch System IP Setup

Users can set the network to “DHCP” or “Static” mode by logging into the switch system via serial console and editing “/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp2s0”. The default mode is “DHCP”.

After editing, save the change, and run “reboot” for the change to take effect.

# 4.3 COMe OS Version Check

After logging in to the switch system, you can check OS version by using the following command:

uname –a or cat /proc/version

The shipped system version is CentOS 7 (Linux kernel 3.10.0-229.e17.x86\_64), as shown below.

# 4.4 PacketManager on the Switch Sled

ADLINK PacketManager runs on the switch system COMe module under Linux OS. It includes the most commonly used Layer2/3 stacks and switch management features.

The following sub-sections describe how to check the version, enter Configure Mode and get help.

# 4.4.1 Check PacketManager Installation Version

Go to the Linux file path “/root” to check the PacketManager version. The file “PacketManager\_xxx\_Vxx\_s.xxx.tar.gz” is the software installation package. The package will be unzipped to the directory “PacketManager\_xxx\_Vxx\_s.xxx”.

The PacketManager version number consists of three parts: “7400” represents the platform, “V1.0” is the major version number, and “S.665” is the secondary version number.

# 4.4.2 Command Line Interface and Configure Mode

# Step 1

After logging into the switch system, you can input the following command to enter the command line interface (CLI):

telnet localhost 9896

# Step 2

To enter Configure Mode, use the enable command “en” or “enable” and default password “adlink”. The display will not echo the password. After entering Configure Mode successfully, the prompt will change from ">" to "#", as show below.

# 5 Maintenance

# 5.1 Hot-Swapping the Switch Sled

When hot-swapping the switch sled, the user must first push the hot-swap (H/S) button at the lower right of the front panel, and wait until the ATN LED turns on before removing the switch sled from the chassis.

![ATN LED](.mxn-4100-50-1z270-1000-10/fc3beb33e934a50d245c23ad4c2398dd0966d946116646ee3e97e1e8b4872aa9.jpg)

A detailed description of the hot-swap process is outlined below:

When the H/S button is pushed, the signal is replicated by a logic module on the mid plane and sent to the four CPU sleds. At the same time, a graceful shutdown of the COMe module is triggered by briefly pulling the COMe PWR\_BTN GPIO high, emulating a user to push the power button.
When the CPU sled detects the H/S signal, it will perform a PCIe device removal on CPU sled based on the PCIe hot-swap specification. When the CPU sled finishes this task, it asserts its ATN LED line.
After the logic module on the midplane detects that all ATN LED lines are asserted and the COMe module S5 signal is also asserted, it will turn on the ATN LED on the switch front panel.

# 5.2 Updating the Switch System BIOS

Users can use the Intel Flash Programming Tool (FPT) to update the system BIOS on the COMe module, including Intel Management Engine (ME), while preserving the MAC address of the internal NIC on the PCH of the COMe module.

1. Boot to DOS
2. Flash BIOS (not including ME) command: fpt -f xxx.rom –bios
3. Flash BIOS (including ME) command: fpt -f xxx.bin –savemac
