Cable Management
The Switch 208/224 has been designed to help you with the problem of managing your network cables. On both sides of the front of each switch are two holes that accept a cable tie to tie-wrap your cables. Simply slide the end of the cable tie into the top or bottom hole until it appears out the other hole as shown in the illustration below. Then use the cable tie to bundle the network cables together
Where to Go From Here
Your switch is now correctly installed and is able to send and receive data between end nodes, servers, and printers.
The Switch 208/224 are plug-and-communicate network devices requiring no configuration. If you wish to manage the switch from an SNMP-based network management station, you will need to install an HP Switch 208/224 Manage- ment Module in the switch. If the management is over an IP network, you will also need to configure the IP address on the switch; see the HP Switch 208/ 224 Management Module Installation and Reference Guide for information on how to use the switch console interface or HP AdvanceStack Assistant to configure the IP address. For Novell Netware (IPX) networks, no configura- tion is necessary to manage the switch--the network address is automatically generated.
