Automatic Setup
You can set up the Switch automatically whilst it is connected to a
network in either of the following ways:
■
Using 3Com Network Supervisor — This application will auto-discover
the Switch and display the automatically allocated IP information
assigned to the Switch.
■
Connecting to the Console Port — Connect a workstation using a
console cable to the console port of the Switch. You can then view the
IP information automatically assigned to the Switch using the
command line interface (CLI).
Using 3Com Network
Supervisor
You can use the 3Com Network Supervisor application provided on the
CD-ROM that accompanies your Switch to discover the automatically
allocated IP information.
1 Connect your Switch to the network.
2 Power-up the Switch and wait for two minutes.
3 Launch 3Com Network Supervisor and run the Auto-discovery wizard.
3Com Network Supervisor will auto-discover the new Switch and display
the IP information that has been automatically allocated to the Switch.
Most DHCP and BootP servers allow static IP addresses to be configured
so that you know what IP address the Switch will be given. Refer to the
documentation that accompanies your DHCP or BootP server.
If your network does not have a DHCP or BootP server, 3Com Network
Supervisor must be on the same subnet as the Switch, as Auto-IP
addresses are non-routable.
Connecting to the
Console Port
To set up your Switch automatically you can alternatively make a
connection to the console port. (This example describes a local
connection to the console port, rather than a remote one via a modem.)
Pre-requisites
■
A workstation with terminal emulation software installed, such as
Microsoft Hyperterminal. This software allows you to communicate
with the Switch via the console port directly, or through a modem.
■
Documentation supplied with the terminal emulation software.
