Default Settings After Initial Switch Configuration
The switch is designed for plug-and-play operation, requiring only that you assign basic IP information
to the switch and connect it to the other devices in your network. If you have specific network needs,
you can change the interface-specific and system-wide settings.
Note For information about assigning an IP address by using the browser-based Express Setup program, see
the getting started guide. For information about assigning an IP address by using the CLI-based setup
program, see the hardware installation guide.
If you do not configure the switch at all, the switch operates with these default settings:

Support for Cisco intelligent power management. The powered device and the switch negotiate
through power-negotiation CDP messages for an agreed power-consumption level. The negotiation
allows a high-power Cisco powered device to operate at its highest power mode.
Automatic detection and power budgeting; the switch maintains a power budget, monitors and tracks
requests for power, and grants power only when it is available.
Ability to monitor the real-time power consumption. On a per-PoE port basis, the switch senses the
total power consumption, polices the power usage, and reports the power usage.
Switch LEDs that provide port- and switch-level status
MAC address notification traps and RADIUS accounting for tracking users on a network by storing
the MAC addresses that the switch has learned or removed
Switched Port Analyzer (SPAN) for traffic monitoring on any port or VLAN
SPAN support of Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to monitor, repel, and report network security
violations
Four groups (history, statistics, alarms, and events) of embedded RMON agents for network
monitoring and traffic analysis
Syslog facility for logging system messages about authentication or authorization errors, resource
issues, and time-out events
Layer 2 traceroute to identify the physical path that a packet takes from a source device to a
destination device
Time Domain Reflector (TDR) to diagnose and resolve cabling problems on 10/100 and
10/100/1000 copper Ethernet ports
SFP module diagnostic management interface to monitor physical or operational status of an SFP
module
Default switch IP address, subnet mask, and default gateway is 0.0.0.0. For more information, see
