    If you are a maintenance engineer, read the following precautions before doing your work:

    l Confirm whether the fault is an emergency fault. If it is an emergency fault, recover the

    faulty module by using the pre-defined troubleshooting methods immediately, and then

    restore services.

    l Strictly conform to operation rules and industrial safety standards, ensuring human and

    device safety.

    l Wear the ESD wrist strap when touching device components.

    l Record original information about the problems occurring during troubleshooting.

    l Record all the operations you have performed, especially the key operations such as

    restarting device and clearing database. Before performing the key operations, confirm theoperation feasibility, back up data, and prepare the emergency and security measures. Only

    qualified personnel can perform key operations.

    NOTE

    After commands are configured to troubleshoot faults, pay attention to the configuration validation mode

    to ensure that the configurations take effect. Unless otherwise specified, this manual defaults to the

    immediate validation mode.

    l In immediate validation mode, configurations take effect after commands are input and the Enter key

    is pressed.

    l In two-phase validation mode, after commands are configured, the commitcommand needs to be run

    to commit the configurations.

    Saving the results of each troubleshooting step is recommended. If your troubleshooting fails to correct

    the fault, you will have a record of your actions to provide Huawei technical support personnel.

    1.2 Backing Up Data

    Some faults cause resource or money loss for customers. Therefore, maintenance engineers

    should focus on preventing faults and quickly restoring faults. Data backup helps you quickly

    locate and recover faults. After a network is set up and operates normally, you should back up

    important data as soon as possible.

    Important data includes:

    l Complete network topology, including device models, versions, and networking diagram

    l Configuration files and license files

    l System software and patch files

    l (Optional) Logs

    l (Optional) Feature library

    1.3 Troubleshooting Process

    Systematic troubleshooting is to find fault causes step by step, and finally recover the fault.

    Modifying the Console Port Password Through the BIOS Menu

    The BIOS allows you to clear the console port password so that the device does not check the

    password when you log in through the console port. Then the device restarts, enters the command

    line interface, and prompts you to change the console port password.

    CAUTION

    l You must restart the device to display the BIOS menu, which results in service interruption.

    Migrate services to a backup device and perform this operation in off-peak hours.

    l Set a new password immediately after you log in to the device by clearing console login

    password. Otherwise, you must repeat this operation when the login expires or the devicerestarts.

    4.1 Restoring the Default Settings Using the Configuration

    FileWhen the device is powered on, it reads the configuration file from the default directory for

    initialization. Therefore, the configuration in the file is called the initial configuration. If no

    configuration file is stored in the default directory, the device uses the default parameters for

    initialization. You must restart the device to make the recovered default settings take effect.

    1. Restore the configuration file using the FTP/TFTP server.

    For detailed operations, see Using FTP/TFTP to Transfer Files. Download the default

    configuration file to the device.

    2. Run the startup saved-configurationcommand to specify the default configuration file

    for the next startup and restore the default settings.

    startup saved-configuration config.zip reboot fast

    NOTE

    When restoring the default settings, do not save the configuration. Otherwise, the device starts up

    using the current configuration.

    4.2 Restarting the Device

    Some network faults will be rectified after you restart the device. This section describes how to

    restart a device.

    You can restart the device using any of the methods in the following table.

    Table 4-1Device restart methods

    Method Description

    Turn off and then turn on the power switch to

    restart the device.

    Cold restart is performed manually. In cold

    restart, a device can be restarted only by

    pressing the power button, which has

    limitations and is applicable to onsite

    maintenance.Save the configurations in real time because

    the device will restart directly without saving

    the current configuration.

    Run the rebootcommand in the user view to

    restart the device.

    Hot restart uses commands, which is adopted

    by maintenance personnel who remotely

    manages the device.

    In restart, the system asks whether to save the

    configuration, which effectively prevents

    configuration loss.

    4.3 Upgrading the Device

    The upgrade of a device is closely related to the released software versions. The corresponding

    upgrade guide is released with each new version and you can upgrade the device according to

    the guide. To obtain the upgrade guides, visit http://support.huawei.com/enterprise, choose

    Software> Product Software> Enterprise Networking> Switch> Data Center Switch,

    and download the upgrade guide based on the product name and version.

    4.4 Transferring Files Using FTP/TFTP

    During system maintenance such as software upgrade and configuration file backup, files must

    be transferred between a PC and the device. FTP/TFTP is used to transfer files.

    When transferring files using FTP/TFTP, the roles of PC and device vary in different methods:

    l PC functioning as an FTP server: You must install the FTP server software on your PC.

    l PC functioning as a TFTP server: You must install the TFTP server software on your

    PC. TFTP is easy to configure but this method has low security and transmission speed.

    l Device functioning as an FTP server: You can perform configurations on the device

    without installing any software. When there are a large number of devices on a network,

    the first two methods are recommended.

    32/160

    Possible Causes

    l The optical module installed on the optical interface is not a Huawei certified optical

    module.

    l The optical module type does not match the optical fiber type.

    l At least one of the two optical interfaces has been manually shut down.

    l The transmit power of the optical module is too low or too high.

    l The receive power of the optical module is too low or too high.

    Troubleshooting Procedure

    1. Check whether a Huawei certified optical module is installed on the optical interface. The

    CE series switches must use Huawei certified optical modules. Non-Huawei-certified

    optical module cannot ensure service reliability and stability. If a non-Huawei-certified

    optical module is used, replace it with a Huawei certified optical module.

    2. Check whether the optical module matches the optical fiber. If not, replace the optical fiberor optical module.

    l A single-mode optical module (generally with a center wavelength of 1310 nm or 1550

    nm) must work with a single-mode optical fiber (generally yellow).

    l A multimode optical module (generally with a center wavelength of 850 nm) must work

    with a multimode optical fiber (generally orange).

    3. Run the display interface transceivercommand to check whether any alarm information

    has been generated for the optical module. display interface 10ge 1/0/1 transceiver10GE1/0/1 transceiverinformation:

    The display interface transceiver verbosecommand displays the current transmit and

    receive power values of the optical module, as well as the default maximum and minimum

    power values.

    l If RxPower Lowis displayed, the receive signal strength is too low. The possible reason

    is that the remote interface is Down or packets sent from the remote interface are droppedduring transmission. Check whether the distance between the two devices exceeds the

    maximum transmission distance of the optical module. If the distance is within the

    transmission distance of the optical module, check whether the optical module on the

    remote interface or the optical fiber is damaged. If they are damaged, replace them.

    l If RxPower Highis displayed, the receive signal strength is too high. The possible

    reason is that the distance between the two devices is short but a long-distance optical

    module is used. In this case, install an optical attenuator on the optical module to reduce

    the transmit power.

    l If TxPower Lowis displayed, the transmit signal strength on the local optical module

    is too low. This may cause a low receive power on the remote optical module. As a

    result, the remote interface cannot turn Up or drops packets sent from the local interface.

    l If TxPower Highis displayed, the transmit signal strength on the local optical module

    is too high. This may cause a high receive power on the remote optical module. If the

    high receives power lasts for a long time, the remote optical module will be burned.

    To ensure normal communication between two optical interfaces, check for transmit and

    receive power alarms after the two interfaces have optical modules installed and connected

    using an optical fiber. Ensure that the transmit and receive power values of the two optical

    modules are in the normal range. Otherwise, traffic forwarding on the optical interfaces

    may be abnormal or the optical modules may be damaged.

    5. If no transmit and receive power alarms are displayed on the two ends but the two interfaces

    are still Down, collect detailed information and logs about the optical modules, and thenreplace the optical modules or optical fiber. If the interfaces can turn Up, the original optical

    modules or optical fiber has been damaged. If the interfaces are still Down, contact Huawei

    Technical Assistance Center.
