Providing power to the device
After you complete the physical installation, you can power on the system.
1.
Install alternating-current (AC) or direct-current (DC) power supplies in the switch. Refer to
2.
Connect AC or DC power cables to the power supply connectors on the rear panel.
NOTE
The equipment should be installed near a power source and in an easily accessible location.
3.
Connect the power cables to the 100-240 VAC or 48-60 VDC power source. The power sources should be on separate
circuits to protect against power failure. Ensure that the power cords have a minimum service loop of 6 inches available and are
routed to avoid stress.
NOTE
Power is supplied to the device as soon as the first power supply is connected.
4.
After the device has booted, verify that the power and status LEDs are green.
The power supply LEDs display amber until power-on self-test (POST) is complete, and then change to green. The switch
usually requires several minutes to boot and complete POST.
NOTE
To turn the system off, simply unplug the power cables.
For more information about how to interpret LEDs and run diagnostics tests, refer to
Establishing a first-time serial connection
To assign an IP address, you must have access to the command line interface (CLI). The CLI is a text-based interface that can be
accessed through a direct serial connection to the device.
Access the CLI by connecting to the console port. After you assign an IP address, you can access the system through Telnet, or Extreme
Network Advisor.
Perform the following steps to access the device through a serial connection.
1.
Connect the serial cable to the console port on the device and to an RS-232 serial port on the workstation using the included
RJ-45-to-RS-232 adapter.
If the serial port on the workstation is RJ-45 instead of RS-232, remove the adapter on the end of the serial cable and insert the
exposed RJ-45 connector into the RJ-45 serial port on the workstation.
