Getting Started Guide

This guide explains how to configure a Catalyst Express 500 switch for the first
time. Basic configuration involves assigning network settings and a password to
the switch.
After you complete the basic configuration, you can access the internal device
manager application to manage and customize the switch. The device manager is
an easy-to-use interface that provides tools for configuring, monitoring, and
problem solving.
Before you power or install the switch, review the safety information in the
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Catalyst Express 500
Switch that accompanies this guide.
For complete information about installing and using the switch, see the
documentation online at Cisco.com > Technical Support & Documentation >
