
The Heartbeat LED indicates the results of the POST. The POST
analyzes the condition of firmware, memories, data-paths, and switch
logic circuitry. If the Heartbeat LED blinks steadily (about once per
second), the POST was successful, and you can continue with the
installation process. Any other blink pattern indicates that an error has
occurred. For more information about error blink patterns, refer to
“Heartbeat LED Blink Patterns” on page 4-3 .
Connect the Workstation to the Switch
You can manage the switch using the CLI, QuickTools, or Enterprise Fabric Suite.
QuickTools and Enterprise Fabric Suite require an Ethernet connection to the
switch. The CLI can use an Ethernet connection or a serial connection. Choose a
switch management method, and then connect the management workstation to
the switch in one of the following ways, as shown in
Figure 3-4 :

Indirect Ethernet connection from the management workstation to the switch
RJ-45 Ethernet connector through an Ethernet switch or a hub. This
connection requires a 10/100 Base-T straight cable.

Direct Ethernet connection from the management workstation to the switch
RJ-45 Ethernet connector. This connection requires a 10/100 Base-T
cross-over cable.

Serial port connection from the management workstation to the switch
RS-232 serial port connector. This connection requires a null modem F/F
DB9 cable.
