Powering On the Switch
To turn on power to the switch, connect the AC power cable to the switch and then to
the wall outlet. For the Summit4, Summit24, and Summit48 switches, turn the on/off
switch to the on position.
Note: The Summit1i, Summit5i, Summit7i, and Summit48i switches do not have
on/off switches.
Checking the Installation
After turning on power to the Summit switch, the device performs a Power On Self-Test
(POST).
During the POST, all ports are temporarily disabled, the packet LED is off, the power
LED is on, and the MGMT LED flashes. The MGMT LED flashes until the switch
successfully passes the POST.
If the switch passes the POST, the MGMT LED blinks at a slow rate (1 blink per
second). If the switch fails the POST, the MGMT LED shows a solid yellow light.
Note: For more information on the LEDs, refer to Chapter 1.
