Powering Up The Chassis; Where To Go Next - Cisco ME-C6524GS-8S Installation Manual

Chapter 3 Installing the Switch

Powering Up the Chassis

Turn on the power supply switches to power up the system. During the power-up sequence, the system
performs a series of bootup diagnostic tests.
Additional system diagnostic tests are available. These tests allow you to perform a complete sanity
check on the system prior to inserting the system into your network and to monitor the health of the
system while the system is running.

Where to Go Next

If the default configuration is satisfactory, the switch does not need further configuration. However, you
may use the CLI from the console to configure the switch as a member of a cluster or as an individual
switch. See the Cisco ME 6500 Series Ethernet Switch Software Configuration Guide and the
Cisco ME 6500 Series Ethernet Switch Cisco IOS Command Reference on Cisco.com for information on
using the CLI with a Cisco ME 6524 Ethernet switch.
