1 Introduction
This guide provides instructions on how to install your Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP—hereafter referred to as the
switch module
—in the HP c-Class BladeSystem and to set up and configure your switch module. The HP c-Class BladeSystem—hereafter referred to as the
blade server
—
supports up to eight Ethernet switch modules, which are installed in the interconnect bays of the blade server.
This guide also covers management options and troubleshooting help for the switch module.
For details on the numbers, types, and the location of the blade server bays, for additional information on the blade server system, and for detailed port mapping information, see the HP BladeSystem enclosure installation poster or the HP BladeSystem enclosure setup and installation guide at
http://
www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation
.
For additional installation and configuration information about the switch module, see the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP documentation on Cisco.com. For system requirements, important notes, limitations, open and resolved caveats, and last-minute documentation updates about the switch
module, see the release notes, also on Cisco.com.
When using the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco IOS software version that is running on the switch module. See the "Obtaining Documentation" section on page 1-24 for more information about the switch module publications.
For translations of the warnings that appear in this publication and all safety and handling warnings for this product, see the
Regulatory Compliance and Safety Information for the Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP
that accompanies this guide.
Before proceeding, read the release notes for the blade server. The release notes are available on the HP support website at www.support.hp.com

Cisco Gigabit Ethernet Switch Module Description
The Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP is a 24 Gigabit Ethernet port, Layer 2+ switch module. Sixteen of the Gigabit Ethernet ports are internal 1000BASE-X downlink ports that connect to the blade server. The other eight Gigabit Ethernet ports are external uplink ports that provide connections to
other switches or routers. Uplink ports operate at 10/100/1000 Mbps if used as RJ-45 ports and operate at 1000 Mbps if small form-factor pluggable (SFP) fiber-optic modules are installed. See
Table 1
for more detailed descriptions of the switch module ports.

shows the switch module.
