5. Persediaan dan Pemasangan
5.1 Penyediaan Tapak
- Pastikan tapak pemasangan bersih, kering dan berventilasi baik.
- Kekalkan suhu ambien antara 0°C dan 45°C (32°F dan 113°F).
- Ensure proper grounding is available at the installation site.
5.2 Pemasangan Rak
- Pasangkan kurungan pemasangan rak yang disediakan pada sisi suis menggunakan skru yang disertakan.
- Align the switch with the rack posts and secure it using appropriate rack screws. Ensure the switch is level and stable.
5.3 Sambungan Kuasa
- Sambungkan kord kuasa AC ke salur masuk kuasa pada panel belakang suis.
- Palamkan hujung kord kuasa yang lain ke dalam salur keluar elektrik yang dibumikan.
- The power LED on the front panel should illuminate, indicating the switch is receiving power.
5.4 Sambungan Rangkaian
- Connect Ethernet cables from your network devices (computers, servers, other switches) to the 10/100/1000BASE-T ports on the front panel.
- For uplink connections to your core network, insert SFP/SFP+ transceivers (if applicable) into the uplink ports and connect appropriate fiber or copper cables.
- Observe the port status LEDs to confirm link establishment and activity.
5.5 Initial Configuration (Console Access)
- Connect the console cable (RJ-45 to DB-9) from the switch's console port to a serial port on a computer.
- Configure your terminal emulation software (e.g., PuTTY, Tera Term) with the following settings:
- Kadar Baud: 9600
- Bit Data: 8
- Pariti: Tiada
- Hentikan Bit: 1
- Kawalan Aliran: Tiada
- Power on the switch. You should see boot messages in the terminal window.
- Follow the on-screen prompts to perform initial configuration, including setting up management IP addresses and basic network parameters.
6. Mengendalikan Suis
6.1 Hidupkan/Mati Kuasa
To power on the switch, connect the power cord to a live electrical outlet. To power off, disconnect the power cord. It is recommended to gracefully shut down the switch via the command-line interface (CLI) if possible before disconnecting power to prevent data corruption or configuration loss.
6.2 Penunjuk LED
LED panel hadapan memberikan status visual operasi suis:
- LED SYS: Indicates system status (e.g., green for normal operation, amber for fault).
- LED PWR: Indicates power status (e.g., green for power on).
- LED Port: Each port has LEDs indicating link status (on/off) and activity (blinking). Refer to the Juniper Networks documentation for specific LED behavior.
6.3 Pengurusan Asas
After initial configuration, the switch can be managed via the CLI (Command Line Interface) through the console port, Telnet, or SSH. A web-based graphical user interface (GUI) may also be available depending on the Junos OS version. Refer to the Juniper Networks Junos OS documentation for detailed management instructions.
7. Penyelenggaraan
7.1 Pembersihan
- Bersihkan bahagian luar suis secara berkala dengan kain lembut dan kering.
- Ensure ventilation openings are free from dust and obstructions. Use compressed air to gently clear dust from vents if necessary.
- Jangan gunakan pembersih cecair atau aerosol terus pada suis.
7.2 Kemas Kini Perisian Tegar
Semak sokongan Juniper Networks secara berkala website for firmware updates. Keeping the switch's Junos OS up-to-date ensures optimal performance, security, and access to new features. Follow the instructions provided by Juniper Networks for performing firmware upgrades.
