Chapter 2 Switch Installation

Where to Go Next

Step 3 Observe the port status LED.

The LED turns green when the switch and the target device have an established link.

The LED turns amber while the STP discovers the network topology and searches for loops. This process takes about 30 seconds, and then the port LED turns green.

If the LED is off, the target device might not be turned on, there might be a cable problem, or there might be problem with the adapter installed in the target device. See Chapter 3, “Troubleshooting,” for solutions to cabling problems.

Step 4 If necessary, reconfigure and restart the switch or target device.

Where to Go Next

If the default configuration is satisfactory, the switch does not need further configuration. You can use any of these management options to change the default configuration:

Use the CLI from the console to configure the switch. See the switch software configuration guide or the switch command reference on for information about using the CLI with a Cisco ME switch.

For setup instructions that use the CLI setup program, go to Appendix D, “Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program.”

Start an SNMP application such as the CiscoView application.
