Site preparations

The N2200-ON Series switch is suitable for installation as part of a common bond network (CBN).

You can install the switch in:

• Network telecommunication facilities

• Data centers

• Other locations where the National Electric Code (NEC) applies

NOTE: Install the switch into a rack or cabinet before installing any additional components such as cables or optics.

Topics:

•Site selection

•Cabinet placement

•Rack mounting

•Switch ground

•Fans and airflow

•Power

•Storing components

Site selection

Install the switch equipment in restricted access areas.

A restricted access area is one in which service personnel can only gain access using a special tool, lock, key or other means of security.

The authority responsible for the location controls access to the restricted area.

Ensure that the area where you install your switch meets the following safety requirements:

• Near an adequate power source. Connect the switch to the appropriate branch circuit protection according to your local electrical

codes.

• Switch environmental temperature range is from 0° to 45°C (32° to 113°F).

• Relative humidity is from 5 to 95 percent (RH), noncondensing.

• In a dry, clean, well-ventilated, and temperature-controlled room, away from heat sources such as hot air vents or direct sunlight

• Away from sources of severe electromagnetic noise.

• Inside the restricted access area, positioned in a rack or cabinet, or on a desktop with adequate space in the front, back, and sides for

proper ventilation and access

• Install the switch in Information Technology Rooms in accordance with Article 645 of the National Electrical Code and NFPA 75.

For more information about switch storage and environmental temperatures, see Specifications.

Cabinet placement

Install the N2200-ON Series switch only in indoor cabinets that are designed for use in a controlled environment.

Do not install the switch in outside cabinets. For cabinet placement requirements, see Site selection.

The cabinet must meet minimum size requirements. Airflow must be in accordance with the Electronic Industries Alliance (EIA) standard.

Ensure that there is a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) between the intake and exhaust vents and the cabinet wall.

Rack mounting

When you prepare your equipment rack, ensure that the rack is grounded.

Ground the equipment rack to the same ground point the power service in your area uses. The ground path must be permanent.

Site preparations 17

Switch ground

Dell EMC recommends you ground your switch. Use the N2200-ON Series switch in a common bond network (CBN).

Connect the grounding cables as described in N2200-ON Series switch installation.

NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cable provides a ground path, Dell

EMC recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire.

NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to attach a dedicated ground wire. The

ground lug kit ships in a plastic bag that is placed with the other accessories inside the shipping box. To ground your

switch, first attach the ground lug to the switch using the screws. Then attach the DC ground wire to the ground lug.

Fans and airflow

The N2200-ON Series switch fans support two airflow options: normal and reverse.

NOTE: Reverse airflow is only supported on the N2224X-ON and N2248X-ON AC switches.

Fan combinations

Fan installation is completed as part of the factory install based on stock keeping unit (SKU) type. The N2200-ON Series switch has SKUs

that support the following configurations:

• AC or DC PSU with fan airflow from the I/O to the PSU—the red indicator on the handle is the normal airflow direction.

• AC PSU with fan airflow from the PSU to the I/O—the blue indicator on the handle is the reverse airflow direction.

Order the fans suitable to support the ventilation at your site. Use a single type of airflow fan in your switch. Do not mix reverse and

normal airflows in a single N2200-ON Series switch.

For proper ventilation, position the switch in an equipment rack or cabinet with a minimum of 5 inches (12.7 cm) of clearance around the

exhaust vents. When you install two N2200-ON switches near each other, to permit proper airflow, position the two switches at least 5

inches (12.7 cm) apart. The fan speed varies based on internal temperature monitoring. The N2200-ON Series switch never intentionally

turns off the fans.

For more information, see Fans.

Power

To connect the switch to the applicable power source, use the appropriate power cable. An AC power cable is included with each PSU. If

you optionally order DC PSUs, they ship with a DC power cable.

When installing AC or DC switches, follow the requirements of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, where applicable.

The switch is powered-up when you connect the power cable between the switch and the power source. For more information, see

Power supplies.

NOTE: This equipment must be earthed. Connect the power plug to a properly wired earth ground socket outlet.

CAUTION: Always disconnect the power cable before you service the power slots. The switch has multiple power cables.

Before servicing, ensure that all power cables are disconnected.

CAUTION: On an AC switch, use the power cable as the main disconnect device. Ensure that the socket-outlet is located

and installed near the equipment and is accessible.

NOTE: Software controls the module power. You do not see module LEDs when the switch powers up in ONIE.

Rack or cabinet hardware installation

You may either place the switch on a rack shelf or mount the switch directly into a 19" wide, EIA-310- E-compliant rack. Rack mounting

includes four-post, two-post, or threaded mounts.

WARNING: This document is a condensed reference. Read the safety instructions in your

Safety, Environmental, and

Regulatory

information booklet before you begin.

NOTE: The figures in this document are not intended to represent a specific switch.

NOTE: Do not the use the mounted ReadyRails as a shelf or a workplace.

Rackmount safety considerations

• Rack loading—Overloading or uneven loading of racks may result in shelf or rack failure, possibly damaging the equipment and causing

personal injury. Stabilize racks in a permanent location before loading begins. Mount the components starting at the bottom of the

rack, and then work to the top. Do not exceed the load rating of your rack.

• Power considerations—Connect only to the power source specified on the unit. When you install multiple electrical components in a

rack, ensure that the total component power ratings do not exceed the circuit capabilities. Overloaded power sources and extension

cables present fire and shock hazards.

• Elevated ambient temperature—If installed in a closed rack assembly, the operating temperature of the rack environment may be

greater than the room ambient temperature. Use care not to exceed the 45°C (113°F) maximum ambient temperature of the switch.

• Reduced airflow—Install the equipment in the rack so that the amount of airflow that is required for safe operation of the equipment is

not compromised.

• Reliable earthing—Maintain reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment. Pay particular attention to the supply connections other

than the direct connections to the branch circuit, for example, use of power strips.

• Do not mount the equipment with the backpanel facing downward.

Ground cable

To attach a ground cable to the switch, use M4 screws.

NOTE: For an AC-powered switch, although the third conductor of the AC power cable provides a ground path, Dell

EMC recommends grounding your switch with a dedicated ground wire.

NOTE: For a DC-powered switch, the only way to safely ground your switch is to attach a dedicated ground wire. The

ground lug kit ships in a plastic bag that is placed with the other accessories inside the shipping box. To ground your

switch, first attach the ground lug to the switch using the screws. Then attach the DC ground wire to the ground lug.

The ground cable is not included.

CAUTION: Grounding conductors

must

be made of copper. Do not use aluminum conductors.

NOTE: Coat the one-hole lug with an anti-oxidant compound before crimping. Also, bring any unplated mating surfaces

to a shiny finish and coat with an anti-oxidant before mating. Plated mating surfaces must be clean and free from

contamination.

NOTE: The rack installation ears are not suitable for grounding.

To connect the ground cable to the switch:

1. Cut your user-supplied ground cable to the wanted length.

The cable length must facilitate proper operation of the fault interrupt circuits. Use the shortest cable route allowable.

2. Crimp the ground cable inside the preinstalled ground lug.

3. Attach the other end of the ground cable to a suitable ground point such as the rack or cabinet.

The rack installation ears are not a suitable grounding point.

Fans

The N2200-ON Series switch comes from the factory with two or three pluggable fan modules.

• N2224X-ON and N2224PX-ON—Two fan modules

• N2248X-ON and N2248PX-ON—Three fan modules

The N2224X-ON and N2248X-ON switches support two airflow direction options. Do not mix airflow types in a switch; you can use only a

single airflow direction in a switch. If the airflow directions are mismatched, you must correct the mismatched airflow direction.

• Airflow is from the I/O panel to the PSU—the red indicator on the handle is the normal airflow direction.

• Airflow is from the PSU to the I/O panel—the blue indicator on the handle is the reverse airflow direction.

NOTE: Reverse airflow is only supported on the N2224X-ON and N2248X-ON AC switches.

All fans and PSUs in a configuration must be in the same airflow direction.

Environmental factors can decrease the amount of time that is required between fan replacements. Check the environmental factors

regularly. An increase in temperature and/or particulate matter in the air might affect performance—for example, new equipment

installation.

Uninstall an existing OS

CAUTION: To install a networking operating system (NOS) on a switch that has a previously installed OS, you must first

uninstall the existing OS. The ONIE: Uninstall OS option deletes the switch configuration and all disk partitions.

To uninstall an existing NOS, boot up the switch. When the ONIE boot menu displays, use the arrow keys to scroll the asterisk to select

the ONIE: Uninstall OS option. This selection stops the switch from booting to the default setting of ONIE: Install OS.

|*ONIE: Uninstall OS |

| ONIE: Update ONIE |

| ONIE: Embed ONIE |

| ONIE: Diag ONIE |

+--------------------------------------------------------+

After the ONIE uninstall process completes, the switch boots to ONIE: Install OS mode.

Install a NOS

CAUTION: Installing a NOS using ONIE erases all software configurations on the switch. The configuration settings are

not recoverable. Back up all software configurations and installed licenses on the switch before performing OS updates

or changes. Store a regular backup of the switch configuration off the switch.

•Automatic installation—ONIE discovers network information including the Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server,

connects to an image server, and downloads and installs an image automatically.

•Manual installation—Manually configure your network information if a DHCP server is not available or if you install the NOS

software image using USB media.

System setup

Before installation, verify that the system is connected correctly:

• Connect a serial cable and terminal emulator to the console serial port. The serial port settings are 115200 baud rate, 8 data bits, and

no parity.

• Connect the Management port to the network to download an image over a network. To locate the Console port and the

Management port, see the platform-specific Installation Guide at www.dell.com/support.

Install the NOS

For an ONIE-enabled switch, go to the ONIE boot menu. An ONIE-enabled switch boots with preloaded diagnostics (DIAGs) and ONIE

software.

| ONIE: Update ONIE |

| ONIE: Embed ONIE |

| ONIE: Diag ONIE |

+--------------------------------------------------------+

• Install OS—Boots to the ONIE prompt and installs an NOS image using the Automatic Discovery process. When ONIE installs a new

OS image, the previously installed image and configuration are deleted.

• Rescue—Boots to the ONIE prompt and enables manual installation of an NOS image or ONIE update.

Installation using ONIE 51

• Uninstall OS—Deletes the contents of all disk partitions, including the NOS configuration, except ONIE and diagnostics.

• Update ONIE—Installs a new ONIE version.

• Embed ONIE—Formats the disk and installs ONIE.

• EDA DIAG—Runs the system diagnostics.

After the ONIE process installs an NOS image and you later reboot the switch in ONIE: Install OS mode (default), ONIE takes

ownership of the system and remains in Install mode (ONIE Install mode is sticky) until an NOS image successfully installs again. To boot

the switch from ONIE for any reason other than installation, select the ONIE: Rescue or ONIE: Update ONIE option from the ONIE

boot menu.

CAUTION: During an automatic or manual NOS installation, if an error condition occurs that results in an unsuccessful

installation and if there is an existing OS on the device, select Uninstall OS to clear the partitions. If the problem

persists, contact Dell EMC Technical Support.

Automatic NOS installation

You can automatically install an NOS image on a Dell EMC ONIE-enabled device. This process is known as zero-touch install. After the

device boots to ONIE: Install OS, ONIE autodiscovery follows these steps to locate the installer file and uses the first successful

method:

1. Use a statically configured path that is passed from the boot loader.

2. Search file systems on locally attached devices, such as USB.

3. Search the exact URLs from a DHCPv4 server.

4. Search the inexact URLs based on the DHCP responses.

5. Search IPv6 neighbors.

6. Start a TFTP waterfall.

The ONIE automatic discovery process locates the stored software image, downloads, and installs it, and reboots the device with the new

image. Autodiscovery repeats until a successful software image installation occurs and reboots the switch.

ONIE discovery — Usage information

• All ONIE autodiscovery methods download and run only supported default file names, such as onie-installer. The required file

names and search order are described on the Open Network Install Environment website at Image Discovery and Execution. For more

information, see the Open Networking Hardware Diagnostic Guide on the Dell EMC Support site.

• If you use a DHCPv4 server, ONIE autodiscovery obtains the hostname, domain name, Management interface IP address, and the IP

address of the domain name server (DNS) from the DHCP server and DHCP options. It also searches SCP, FTP, or TFTP servers with

the default DNS of the ONIE server. DHCP options are not used to provide the server IP.

• If you use a USB storage device, ONIE searches only FAT or EXT2 file systems for an NOS image.

Example: NOS automatic installation

1. On the TFTP server, rename the NOS image to a supported installer file name, such as onie-installer, using the mv image-

name default-filename command.

mv <NOS-image-name>.bin onie-installer

2. Boot up the switch in ONIE: Install mode to install an NOS image.

Press <DEL> or <F2> to enter setup.

Welcome to GRUB!

Manual NOS installation

If you do not use the ONIE-based automatic installation of a NOS image and if a DHCP server is not available, you can manually install the

image. Configure the Management port and provide the software image file to start the installation.

1. Save the NOS software image on an SCP/TFTP/FTP server.

2. Power up the switch and select ONIE Rescue for manual installation.

3. (optional) Stop DHCP discovery if you were not able to select ONIE Rescue mode.

$ onie-discovery-stop

4. Configure the IP addresses on the Management port, where x.x.x.x represents your internal IP address. After you configure the

Management port, the response is up.

$ ifconfig eth0 x.x.x.x netmask xxx.xxx.x.x up

5. Install the software on the device. The installation command accesses the NOS from the specified SCP, TFTP, or FTP URL, creates

partitions, verifies installation, and reboots itself.

$ onie-nos-install image_url

For example, enter

ONIE:/ # onie-nos-install ftp://a.b.c.d/

<NOS-image_name>

.bin

Where a.b.c.d represents the location to download the image file from, and x.x.xx represents the version number of the software to

install.

The NOS installer image may create multiple partitions during the installation process. After the installation process completes, the switch

automatically reboots into the new OS.

Install manually using a USB drive

You can manually install the NOS software image using a USB device. Verify that the USB device supports a FAT or EXT2 file system. For

instructions to format a USB device in FAT or EXT2 format, see the accompanying Windows documentation for FAT formatting or Linux

documentation for FAT or EXT2 formatting.

1. Plug the USB storage device into the USB storage port on the switch.

2. Power up the switch to automatically boot using the ONIE: Rescue option.

3. (Optional) Stop ONIE discovery if the device boots to ONIE: Install.

$ onie-discovery-stop

4. Create a USB mount location on the system.

$ mkdir /mnt/media

5. Identify the path to the USB drive.

$ fdisk -l

6. Mount the USB media plugged in the USB port on the device.

$ mount -t vfat usb-drive-path /mnt/media

7. Install the software from the USB, where /mnt/media specifies the path where the USB partition is mounted.

$ onie-nos-install /mnt/media/image_file

The ONIE autodiscovery process discovers the image file at the specified USB path, loads the software image, and reboots the switch.

For more information, see the ONIE User Guide.

Product recycling and disposal

You must recycle or discard this switch according to applicable local and national regulations. Dell EMC encourages owners of information

technology (IT) equipment to responsibly recycle their equipment when it is no longer needed. Dell EMC offers a variety of product return

programs and services in several countries to assist equipment owners in recycling their IT products.

Waste electrical and electronic equipment (WEEE) directive for

recovery, recycle and reuse of IT and telecommunications products

Dell EMC switches are labeled in accordance with European Directive 2002/96/EC concerning waste electrical and electronic equipment

(WEEE). The Directive determines the framework for the return and recycling of used appliances as applicable throughout the European

Union. This label is applied to various products to indicate that the product is not to be thrown away, but rather reclaimed upon end of life

per this Directive.

Figure 10. The European WEEE symbol

In accordance with the European WEEE Directive, electrical and electronic equipment (EEE) is to be collected separately and to be

reused, recycled, or recovered at end of life. Users of EEE with the WEEE marking per Annex IV of the WEEE Directive, as shown above,

must not dispose of end of life EEE as unsorted municipal waste, but use the collection framework available to customers for the return,

recycling and recovery of WEEE. Customer participation is important to minimize any potential effects of EEE on the environment and

human health due to the potential presence of hazardous substances in EEE.

Dell EMC products, which fall within the scope of the WEEE, are labeled with the crossed-out wheelie-bin symbol, as shown above, as

required by WEEE.

For information on Dell EMC product recycling offerings, see the WEEE Recycling instructions on Support. For more information, contact

the Dell EMC Technical Assistance Center.
