344CHAPTER 9: CONFIGURING WX SWITCHES REMOTELY

Replacing a Switch This task is performed by someone at the remote office and does not require a network administrator.

3Com recommends that you read through the entire procedure before beginning.

To replace a switch

1Remove the power cord from the old switch.

2Unplug the network cables from the old switch.

If the cables are not already labeled to indicate the switch port numbers to which they are connected, you might want to label them before unplugging them.

3Plug the network cables into the new switch.

4Plug the power cord into the new switch.

5Perform this step only if the switch is a WXR100 and was not prestaged by your network administrator.

While the switch is powering on, insert a paperclip or similar object into the WXR100’s Fn hole to press the Fn switch.

Normally, the Fn LED (the right LED above port 1) remains solidly lit for 3 seconds after power on. However, when the Fn switch is pressed, the LED flashes for 3 seconds instead.
