Services to perform a firmware upgrade, to save the configuration, and to perform a backup of the configuration Start the switch and observe the power-on self-test When you supply power to the switch, the switch goes through a power-on self-test (POST). The POST runs every time that the switch initializes and checks the switch hardware before the switch boots. If the POST detects a critical problem, the startup procedure stops. The boot process runs for approximately 60 seconds. If POST passes successfully, a valid executable image loads into RAM. If you connect a local terminal to the switch, POST messages display on the terminal and indicate test success or failure. Prepare a terminal if you intend to use a console port If you intend to use one of the console ports for initial configuration of the switch, connect a computer with a Windows, MAC, or Linux operating system and a terminal emulation program or a VT100/ANSI terminal to one of the console ports on the switch. You can use one of the following console ports on the switch: • Mini USB console port. The switch comes with a mini USB to USB cable, which you can use to connect the mini USB console port on the switch to a USB port on a computer with a Windows, MAC, or Linux operating system or a VT100/ANSI terminal. Note: To use the mini USB port, you must install the USB driver on the computer. (The Windows USB driver is on the resource CD.) • RJ-45 RS232 console port. The RJ-45 RS232 serial port uses the following settings: - Baud rate. 115,200 bps - Data bits. 8 Get Started 8 Software Setup Manual
