Installing and Configuring the DS-4900B
3. Record the IP address on the pull out tab on the port side of the
DS-4900B
(Figure 1-1 on page 1-3).
Create an Ethernet connection
To create an Ethernet connection to the DS-4900B:
1. Remove the protection plug from the Ethernet port.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable from the switch Ethernet port to a
network Ethernet hub.
Note: At this point, the switch can be accessed remotely, through telnet
or Web Tools. Ensure that the switch is not being modified from any
other connections during the remaining tasks.
Set the switch domain ID
To set the switch domian ID:
1. Log on to the switch by telnet, using the administrative account.
2. Modify the domain ID if required.
The default domain ID is 1. If the switch is not powered on until
after it is connected to the fabric and the default domain ID is
already in use, the domain ID for the new switch is automatically
reset to a unique value. If the switch is connected to the fabric
after is has been powered on and the default domain ID is already
in use, the fabric segments. To find the domain IDs that are
currently in use, run the fabricShow command on another switch
in the fabric.
a. Disable the switch by typing the switchDisable command.
b. Enter the configure command. The command prompts display
sequentially; enter a new value or press Enter to accept each
default value.
c. Enter y after the “Fabric parameters” prompt:
Fabric parameters (yes, y, no, n): [no] y
d. Enter a unique domain ID (such as the domain ID used by the
previous switch, if still available):
Domain: (1..239) [1] 3
