For information on booting stand-alone switches and switches in stacked configurations, refer to the
sections below.
Booting an OmniSwitch
The switch does not use an on/off switch. The power cord is the switch’s only connect/disconnect device.
The power connector socket is located on the power supply rear panel. For more information, refer to
“OmniSwitch 6450 Chassis and Hardware Components” on page 2-1.
To boot the switch, plug the power cord into an easily-accessible power source, such as a grounded AC
outlet or an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
The switch immediately begins the boot process. Allow a few moments for the switch to boot completely,
then verify the status of all LEDs on the switch’s front panel. A successful boot displays the following
LED states:
If any of the LED state differs from the states shown in the table above, refer to page 2-5 for more
information. Contact Alcatel-Lucent Customer Support if the LED state persists.
For information on logging in and configuring your switch, refer to the Getting Started Guide.
