Running Express Setup

Cisco IE 3010 Switch Getting Started Guide

You should use Express Setup to enter the initial IP information. You can then access the switch through the IP address for further configuration.

Note To use the CLI-based initial setup program, see Appendix C, “Configuring the Switch with the CLI Setup Program,” in the switch hardware guide.

You need this equipment:

•PC with Windows 2000, XP, Vista, or Windows Server 2003

•Web browser (Internet Explorer 6.0, 7.0, or Firefox 1.5, 2.0, or later) with JavaScript enabled

•Straight-through or crossover Category 5 or 6 cable

Note Before running Express Setup, disable any pop-up blockers or proxy settings on your browser and any wireless client running on your PC.

Step 1 Make sure that nothing is connected to the switch.

Step 2 During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your PC has a static IP address, temporarily configure your PC settings to use DHCP.

Note Write down the static IP address. You need this address in Step 12.

Step 3 Connect the wires to the switch power-input terminal.

See the “Wiring the Power Source” section on page 16 for instructions about AC- or DC-power connections.
