2. After POST is complete, verify that the switch power and status LEDs on the
left of the port side of the switch are green.
Creating a serial connection
You will perform all basic configuration tasks in this guide using a serial
connection. To create a serial connection to the switch, complete the following
steps:
1. Connect the serial cable to the serial port on the switch and to an RS-232 serial
port on the workstation.
If the serial port on the workstation is RJ-45 instead of RS-232, remove the
adapter on the end of the serial cable and insert the exposed RJ-45 connector
into the RJ-45 serial port on the workstation.
2.
Disable any serial communication programs running on the workstation.
3. Open a terminal emulator application (such as HyperTerminal on a PC, or
TERM, TIP, or Kermit in a UNIX
®
environment), and configure the application
as follows:
v
In a Windows
®
environment:
Bits per second 9600
Databits 8
Parity None
Stop bits 1
Flow control None
v
In a UNIX environment, type the following string at the prompt:
tip /dev/ttyb -9600
If ttyb is already in use, use ttya instead and enter the following string at the
prompt:
tip /dev/ttya -9600
Setting the switch IP address
You can configure the switch with a static IP address, or you can use a DHCP
(Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) server to set the IP address of the switch.
DHCP is enabled by default. The switch supports both IPv4 and IPv6.
Using DHCP
When using DHCP, the switch obtains its IP address, subnet mask, and default
gateway address from the DHCP server. The DHCP client can only connect to the
a DHCP server that is on the same subnet as the switch. If your DHCP server is
not on the same subnet as the switch, use a static IP address.
Setting a static IP address
1. Log into the switch using the default password, which is password .
2. Use the ipaddrset command to set the Ethernet IP address.
If you are going to use an IPv4 IP address, enter the IP address in dotted
decimal notation as prompted.
Ethernet IP Address: [192.168.74.102]
If you are going to use an IPv6 address, enter the network information in
semicolon-separated notation as prompted.
