How to use
Install the OmniSwitch 6560 in a standard 19-inch rack using the included mounting brackets and secure appropriate power and network cabling. Configure basic switching, VLANs, PoE settings and uplink/stacking links via the Alcatel-Lucent Operating System (AOS) management interface — using CLI, web GUI or network management tools supported by AOS. Connect access points, endpoints and uplink links according to your network design and verify port status and PoE allocation after initial setup.
Usage recommendations
For optimal performance, use Cat6a or better cabling for multi-gigabit links and ensure firmware is updated to the latest AOS release. Plan PoE budget per port when deploying power-hungry devices and design stacking and uplink topologies to provide redundancy and required throughput.
