Booting OmniSwitch 6800 Series Switches

Booting a Standalone Switch

The OmniSwitch 6800 Series switch does not use an on/off
switch. The power cord is the switch's only connect/discon-
nect device. The power connector socket is located on the
switch's rear panel. For more information, refer to
"OmniSwitch 6800 Series Rear Panel" on page
To boot the switch, plug the power cord (provided) into the
power connector socket at the switch's rear panel. Next, plug
the power cord into an easily-accessible power source, such as
a grounded AC outlet or an Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS).
The switch immediately begins the boot process. Allow a few
moments for the switch to boot completely, then verify the
status of all LEDs on the switch's front panel. A successful
boot for a standalone switch displays the following LED
states:
