ABOUT THIS GUIDE

This guide provides all the information you need to install and use a SuperStack® II Switch 1100 unit with default settings. If you want to change the way the Switch works using management software, refer to the “SuperStack II Switch Management Guide” (part number DUA1695-0BAA0x).

The guide is intended for use by network administrators who are responsible for installing and setting up network equipment; consequently, it assumes a basic working knowledge of LANs (Local Area Networks).

This guide is intended for use with both Switch 1100 models:

3C16950 — 24 10BASE-T ports

3C16951 — 12 10BASE-T ports

All pictures and example screens show the 24-port model, however, all procedures apply to the 24-port model and the 12-port model.

If the information in the release notes that are shipped with your product differs from the information in this guide, follow the instructions in the release notes.

Most user guides and release notes are available in Adobe Acrobat Reader Portable Document Format (PDF) or HTML on the 3Com World Wide Web site:
