Chapter 4: Installing the Switch and its Power Supplies
Monitoring the Initialization Processes
It takes about thirty seconds for the switch to initialize its management software programs and features, and load the default configuration. You may monitor the progress of the initialization process by watching the switch ID LED. It displays the number “8” for about the first 15 seconds and then displays the number “1.”
You may also monitor the bootup sequence by connecting a terminal or computer that has a terminal emulator program, to the Console port on the master switch. You will see the messages in Figure 36 here to Figure 38 on page 76.
