Installing the Switch
Installation Procedures
• The port LEDs on the front of the switch go into their normal
operational mode:
– If the ports are connected to active network devices, the port Link
LEDs are on, and the port Mode LEDs behave according to the
LED Mode selected. In the default LED mode (Act), the LEDs
should be flickering to show network traffic.
– If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs
will stay off.
If the LED display is different than what is described above, especially if the
Fault and Test LEDs stay on for more than 60 seconds or they start blinking,
then the switch boot has not completed correctly. Refer to chapter 5,
“Troubleshooting” for diagnostic help.
3. (Optional) Install the Stacking Module
Note Hot swapping the Stacking Module is not supported. If a module is installed
with the switch powered on, self-test of the module will not occur, the Mdl
LED on the front of the switch and the Module Status LED on the module will
blink orange. The switch must be reset or power cycled for the module to
function. Only insert or remove a module during scheduled downtime with
the switch powered off.
1. Remove the cover plate.
2. Insert the module aligning with the guides in the slot.
3. Once the contacts have engaged, use the extractor handles to seat the
module completely.
4. Tighten the captive screws until they are snug – do not overtighten them.
