Installing the SAN Switch 2/8

Installing the Switch as a Stand-alone Unit

Use these procedures for setting up the switch as a stand-alone unit. The following items are required for this setup:

■SAN Switch 2/8

■AC power cord and cables supplied with the switch

■Rubber mounting feet supplied with the switch

1. Place the SAN Switch 2/8 on a flat, sturdy surface like a table or lab bench.

Caution: Installing the rubber feet on the switch is recommended to help prevent the switch from accidentally sliding off the table or bench.

2.Apply the rubber feet as follows.

a.Clean the four depressions that are at each corner of the bottom of the switch to ensure they are free of dust.

b.Place a rubber foot in each depression, with the adhesive side against the chassis, and press into place.

3.Connect the power cable to the SAN Switch 2/8 power supply and to a power outlet. Ensure the power cable is routed so that it is not exposed to stress.

4.Turn on the power to the switch (flip the AC switch to “1”). The switch automatically runs a Power On Self-Test (POST).

Note: Do not connect the switch to the network until the IP address is correctly set. For instructions on how to set the IP address, see the “Configuring SAN Switch 2/8 Network Addressing” section on page 47.
