1About this Guide

This guide provides instructions on how to use Express Setup to initially configure your Catalyst 3750G Integrated Wireless LAN Controller switch. It also covers switch management options, the configuration procedures for the controller, basic rack-mounting procedures, stacking, port and module connections, power connection procedures, and any troubleshooting help.

The Catalyst 3750G Integrated Wireless LAN Controller switch has an integrated Cisco wireless LAN controller that can support Cisco Lightweight Access Points. The switch also has two internal Gigabit Ethernet ports (ports 27 and 28) that connect the switch and the controller. The integrated wireless LAN controller centralizes and simplifies network management of a wireless LAN. It collapses large numbers of managed lightweight access points and client devices into a single unified system.

For additional installation and configuration information for wireless LAN controller switches, see the Catalyst 3750 documentation on Cisco.com. For more information on the controller, see the Cisco Wireless LAN Controller Configuration Guide, Release 4.0 or later on Cisco.com. For system requirements, important notes, limitations, open and resolved caveats, and last-minute documentation updates, see the release notes, also on Cisco.com.

When using the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco IOS software version running on the switch. The software version is on the Cisco IOS label on the switch rear panel.

For translations of the warnings that appear in this publication, see the Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Catalyst 3750 Switch that accompanies this guide.
