After the switch is mounted in the rack, perform these tasks to complete the installation, run the setup program, and access the switch:

Connect to the console port and start the emulation software. See the “Connecting to the Switch” section on page C-1and the “Starting the Terminal-Emulation Software” section on page C-2.

Power on the switch. See the “Connecting to a Power Source” section on page C-3.

Run the setup program. See the “Performing the Initial Configuration” section on page C-4.

Connect to the front-panel ports. See the “Connecting to an SFP Module” section on page 2-10to complete the installation.

To use the CLI, enter commands at the Switch> prompt through the console port by using a terminal program or through the network by using Telnet. For full configuration information, refer to the switch software configuration guide or the switch command reference.

Attaching the Cable Guide

We recommend that you attach the cable guide to prevent the cables from obscuring the front panel of the switch and the other devices installed in the rack. Use the supplied black screw, as shown in Figure 2-3, to attach the cable guide to the left or right bracket.

Installing and Removing SFP Modules

These sections describe how to install and remove SFP modules. SFP modules are inserted into

SFP module ports on the front of the switch. These field-replaceable modules provide uplink interfaces.

You can use any combination of SFP modules. Refer to the release notes for this release for the list of SFP modules that the Cisco ME 4924-10GE switch supports. Each port must match the wave-length specifications on the other end of the cable, and the cable must not exceed the stipulated cable length for reliable communications. See the “Installation Guidelines” section on page 2-3for cable stipulations for SFP connections.

Use only Cisco SFP modules on the Cisco ME 4924-10GE switch. Each SFP module has an internal serial EEPROM that is encoded with security information. This encoding provides a way for Cisco to identify and validate that the SFP module meets the requirements for the switch.
