page 3-6 — Under the Diagnostic Tip ￿, add the following bulleted items:

•Make sure that the configurations for the switch port and the port on the connected device are the same. Incompatible port configurations will result in failure to link or in a link that has very poor performance.

•Make sure that if you change the connection between the 100/1000-T Transceiver and a device operating at one speed (for example, 100 Mbps) to a connection to a device operating at a different speed (for example, 1000 Mbps), that you reset the switch after the connection change. Until you reset the switch, the link may not complete success- fully (no Link LED), or the link may complete successfully but will continue to operate at the former speed, not at the new connection speed.

Change to the Management and Configuration Guide

The following information pertains to your Series 2500 switches. Make the following change to your

switch Management and Configuration Guide (5969-2354):

Page A-10 — modify the note text near the top of the page to the following:

Note

If an error occurs during a TFTP transfer of the switch code and the transfer of

 

the new code does not complete successfully, an error message is displayed on

 

the console and the transfer process is terminated. Switch operation is not

 

interrupted at all; it continues to operate under the old code.

 

Fix whatever problem caused the TFTP file transfer error and then retry the

 

download.
