MANAGEMENT port
The 9-pin male Out-of-Band Management (OBM) port labeled MANAGEMENT
on the front panel functions as a DTE (Data Terminal Equipment) port.
A terminal can be attached to this port to access the switch console interface for
switch management. The terminal can be attached directly to the port or remotely
via a modem connection.
The MANAGEMENT port automatically detects the baud rate of the terminal to
which it is attached.
Reset Button
The switch has a recessed reset button labelled RST that is located on the front
panel. Pressing the reset button resets the hardware and software and clears all
tables and memory, including the address tables. Pressing the reset button does not
clear the values stored in non-volatile random access memory (NVRAM).
System Request Button
This unlabelled recessed button is located on the front panel above the reset button.
Pressing the button causes the System Request menu to appear on the console
device attached to the MANAGEMENT port. Pressing the button for more than
five seconds will initiate a modem download of the main image.
Note: The system request button should be used only at the direction of service
personnel. The button is recessed to prevent accidental activation.

Labels

The two labels at the right on the front panel are:
•
The MAC (Media Access Control) Address Label:
The unique globally assigned Base MAC-Address of the switch.
•
The Switch Number Label:
Blank label for an individual user identification of the switch.

Status and Activity LEDs

The switch features three status LEDs at the left on the front panel that show the
current status of the switch. There are also three activity LEDs at the left that
indicate the activity of the optional stacker link module. Moreover, each Token-
Ring port has two LEDs. These two LEDs are unlabelled and located on the upper
edge of each port. Also, to the right of each of the four Fast Ethernet ports there are
three LEDs. Finally, port 21 and 22 share two status LEDs, as do port 25 and 26.
Refer to Figure 2 in this chapter for the exact locations of all the LEDs.
