Installing the Switch

Installation Procedures

LED Behavior:

During the self test:

Initially, all the status, LED Mode and port LEDs are on for most of the duration of the test.

Most of the LEDs go off and then may come on again during phases of the self test. For the duration of the self test, the Test LED stays on.

When the self test completes successfully:

The Power and Fan Status LEDs remain on.

The Fault and Test LEDs go off.

The port LEDs on the front of the switch go into their normal opera- tional mode:

If the ports are connected to active network devices, the LEDs behave according to the LED Mode selected. In the default view mode (Link), the LEDs should be on.

If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs will stay off.

If the LED display is different than what is described above, especially if the Fault and Test LEDs stay on for more than 60 seconds or they start blinking, the self test has not completed correctly. Refer to chapter 4, “Troubleshooting” for diagnostic help.

6. Mount the Switch

After the switch passes self test, you are ready to mount the switch in a stable location. The 3500, 3500yl and 6200yl switches can be mounted in these ways:
