Introduction NOTICE: Before proceeding, read the release notes for this product. The release notes can be downloaded from support.dell.com. This User Guide contains the information needed for installing, configuring and maintaining the PowerConnect device. PowerConnect 54xx Series Systems The PowerConnect 54xx series systems have two versions: 5424 has 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports, and 5448 has 48 Gigabit Ethernet ports.
Page 12: Features
Features This section describes the device user-configured features. For a complete list of all updated device features, refer to the latest software version Release Notes. General Features Head of Line Blocking Head of Line (HOL) blocking results in traffic delays and frame loss caused by traffic competing for the same egress port resources.
Page 13: Mac Address Supported Features
iSCSI Optimization iSCSI is a communication protocol used for sending data between file servers and storage disks. The file servers are called initiators and the disks are called targets. You can optimize iSCSI flow by setting Quality of Service frame priority parameters in the device. The device can also intercept iSCSI frames and provide information about iSCSI communications (called sessions).
Page 14: Layer 2 Features
VLAN-aware MAC-based Switching Packets arriving from an unknown source address are sent to the microprocessor, where the source addresses are added to the Hardware Table. Packets addressed to or from this address are more efficiently forwarded using the Hardware Table. MAC Multicast Support Multicast service is a limited broadcast service, which allows one-to-many and many-to-many connections for information distribution.
Page 15: Vlan Supported Features
VLAN Supported Features VLAN Support VLANs are collections of switching ports that comprise a single broadcast domain. Packets are classified as belonging to a VLAN based on either the VLAN tag or based on a combination of the ingress port and packet contents.
Page 16: Spanning Tree Protocol Features
Spanning Tree Protocol Features Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) 802.1d Spanning tree is a standard Layer 2 switch requirement that allows bridges to automatically prevent and resolve L2 forwarding loops. Switches exchange configuration messages using specifically formatted frames and selectively enable and disable forwarding on ports. For more information, see "Configuring the Spanning Tree Protocol"...
Page 17: Layer 3 Features
• Improved bandwidth granularity • High bandwidth server connectivity LAG is composed of ports with the same speed, set to full-duplex operation. For more information, see "Defining LAG Membership" on page 327. Link Aggregation and LACP LACP uses peer exchanges across links to determine, on an ongoing basis, the aggregation capability of various links, and continuously provides the maximum level of aggregation capability achievable between a given pair of systems.
Page 18: Device Management Features
Device Management Features SNMP Alarms and Trap Logs The system logs events with severity codes and timestamps. Events are sent as Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps to a Trap Recipient List. For more information on SNMP Alarms and Traps, see "Configuring LLDP and LLDP-MED" on page 159. SNMP Version 1 and Version 2 Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) over the UDP/IP protocol.
Page 19: Security Features
Command Line Interface Command Line Interface (CLI) syntax and semantics conform as much as possible to common industry practice. CLI is composed of mandatory and optional elements. The CLI interpreter provides command and keyword completion to assist user and shorten typing. Syslog Syslog is a protocol that allows event notifications to be sent to a set of remote servers, where they can be stored, examined and acted upon.
Page 20: Locked Port Support
Port Based Authentication (802.1x) Port based authentication enables authenticating system users on a per-port basis via an external server. Only authenticated and approved system users can transmit and receive data. Ports are authenticated via the Remote Authentication Dial In User Service (RADIUS) server using the Extensible Authentication Protocol (EAP).
Page 21: Additional Cli Documentation
DHCP Snooping DHCP Snooping expands network security by providing firewall security between untrusted interfaces and DHCP servers. By enabling DHCP Snooping network administrators can differentiate between trusted interfaces connected to end-users or DHCP Servers and untrusted interfaces located beyond the network firewall.

Page 24: Powerconnect Back Panel Port Description
Figure 2-2. Device Back Panel On the device back panel are two power supply connectors and an RS-232 Console port. For general use there is an AC Power Supply connector which is connectable to either 110V or 220V power supplies. The DC Power Supply connector is to connect a Redundant Power Supply (RPS) to be activated automatically in the event of an AC power supply outage.
Page 25: Physical Dimensions
Physical Dimensions The device has the following physical dimensions: • Height — 44 mm (1.73 inch) • Width — 440 mm (17.32 inch) • Depth — 255 mm (10.03 inch) LED Definitions The front panel contains light emitting diodes (LED) that indicate the status of links, power supplies, fans, and system diagnostics.
Page 26: System Leds
SFP LEDs The SFP ports each have one LED marked as LNK. Figure 2-5. SFP Port LED The SFP port LED indications are described in the following table: Table 2-2. SFP Port LED Indications Color Description Green Static The port is currently up. Green Flashing The port is currently transmitting or receiving data.
Page 27: Hardware Components
Table 2-3. System LED Indications Color Description Fan (FAN) Green Static The device fans are operating normally. Red Static One or more fans are not operating. Redundant Power Supply (RPS) Green Static The redundant power supply is currently operating. Red Static The redundant power supply is not operating.
Page 28: Reset Button
DC Power Supply Unit An external DC power supply unit is used as a redundant power supply unit. Operation is possible with power supplied from this unit only. RPS600 connector type is used. No configuration is required. LED indicator is on the front panel and indicates whether DC unit is connected. When the device is connected to a different power source, the probability of failure in the event of a power outage decreases.

Page 207: Optimizing Iscsi
Optimizing iSCSI iSCSI is a communication protocol used for sending data between file servers and storage disks. The file servers are called initiators and the disks are called targets. You can optimize iSCSI flow by setting Quality of Service frame priority parameters in the device. The device can also intercept iSCSI frames and provide information about iSCSI communications (called sessions).

There are two operational modes for IP Phones: • IP phones are configured with VLAN-mode as enabled, ensuring that tagged packets are used for all communications. • If the IP phone’s VLAN-mode is disabled, the phone uses untagged packets. The phone uses untagged packets while retrieving the initial IP address through DHCP.

Page 323: Aggregating Ports
Aggregating Ports Port Aggregation optimizes port usage by linking a group of ports together to form a single Link Aggregated Group (LAG). Port Aggregation multiplies the bandwidth between the devices, increases port flexibility, and provides link redundancy. The device supports up to eight LAGs per system, and eight ports per LAG per device.
Page 324 Defining LACP Parameters The LACP Parameters page contains fields for configuring LACP LAGs. Aggregate ports can be linked into link-aggregation port-groups. Each group is comprised of ports with the same speed. Aggregated Links can be manually setup or automatically established by enabling Link Aggregation Control Protocol (LACP) on the relevant links.

The parameters are defined, and the device is updated. Displaying the LACP Parameters Table 1 Open the LACP Parameters page. 2 Click Show All.
Page 326 Defining LAG Membership The LAG Membership page contains fields for assigning ports to LAGs. LAGs can include up to 8 ports.When a port is added to a LAG, the port acquires the LAG’s properties. If the port cannot be configured with the LAG properties, a trap is generated and the port operates with its default settings. The LAG Membership page contains fields for assigning ports to LAGs.

Defining Multicast Global Parameters Layer 2 switching forwards Multicast packets to all relevant VLAN ports by default, treating the packet as a Multicast transmission. While this is functional, in the sense that all relevant ports/nodes receive a copy of the frame, it is potentially wasteful as ports/nodes may receive irrelevant frames only needed by a subset of the ports of that VLAN.
