Serial console port—The serial console port provides a direct
management connection to a WX switch's command-line interface
(CLI). The port has a DB-9 female connector and supports the
EIA-232D signaling standard.
10/100 out-of-band management port—The WX2200 switch features
an out-of-band management port, which allows you to connect the
switch to a network server and configure the switch to boot using a
software image downloaded from the server. The WXR100 also
supports booting with a software image downloaded from a server.
Restart switch—The restart switch allows you to restart a WX1200 or
WX4400 without removing the power cord(s).
CAUTION: The Fn switch on the WXR100 performs two functions. If you
press the Fn switch for less than 5 seconds, it restarts the WXR100 and
reloads its configuration from the configuration file. However, if you
press the switch for 5 seconds or longer, the configuration file is deleted
and the switch restarts with its factory default settings. If you accidentally
press the Fn switch for too long and erase the configuration, you can use
the Web Quick Start to reconfigure the switch.
Status LEDs—The Ethernet ports and power supplies have LEDs that
indicate their status. The management CPU on a WX4400 or WX2200
switch also has an LED. (For details, see "WX1200, WX4400, and
WX2200 Status LEDs" on page 16.)
Flash card slot (WX4400 only)—The flash card slot is not used for
normal WX operation.
Power supplies—A WX4400 switch comes with one 100-240 VAC
autosensing AC power supply. You can add a second supply for load
sharing and redundancy. The power supplies are hot-swappable.
A WX1200 switch contains one 100-120 VAC / 200-240 VAC
autosensing AC power supply. The WX1200 power supply is a
fixed-configuration supply and cannot be inserted or removed.
A WX2200 switch contains two 100-240V VAC autosensing AC
power supplies.
A WXR100 switch uses an external power supply, which comes with
the switch.
