Installing the Switch

Installation Procedures

Installing the Switch

For transceiver ports, and in general for

all the switch ports, when a network

cable from an active network device is

connected to the port, the port LED for

that port should go on. If the port LED

does not go on when the network cable

is connected to the port, see “Using

LEDs to Diagnose an Error Condition”

on page 5-4 in chapter 5, “Trouble-

shooting”.

8. (Optional) Connect a Management Console

6600 Switches have a full-featured, easy-to-use console interface for

performing switch management tasks including:

■ Monitor switch and port status, and network activity statistics.

■ Modify the switch’s configuration to optimize switch performance,

enhance network traffic control, and improve network security.

■ Read the event log and access diagnostic tools to help in troubleshooting.

■ Download new software to the switch.

■ Add passwords to control access to the switch from the console, web

browser interface, and network management stations.

After you install and power up a 6600 Switch, you must use the out-of-band

console connection to minimally configure the switch with an IP address and

subnet mask before you can use a networked (in-band or out-of-band) connec-

tion to manage the switch. The minimal switch configuration is described in

“Minimal Configuration Through the Out-of-Band Console Connection” on

page 3-2.

To connect a console to the switch, use the console cable shipped with the

switch and connect a PC or VT-100 terminal to the Console serial port. The PC

or terminal then functions as a management console connected directly to the

switch.

You can use the Console port only for out-of-band management; it cannot be

used for a Telnet connection.
