Introduction

This guide provides instructions on how to install your Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for

HP—hereafter referred to as the switch module—in the HP c-Class BladeSystem and to set up and

configure your switch module. The HP c-Class BladeSystem—hereafter referred to as the blade

server—supports up to eight Ethernet switch modules, which are installed in the interconnect bays of

the blade server.

This guide also covers management options and troubleshooting help for the switch module.

For details on the numbers, types, and the location of the blade server bays, for additional information

on the blade server system, and for detailed port mapping information, see the HP BladeSystem

enclosure installation poster or the HP BladeSystem enclosure setup and installation guide at

http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation.

For additional installation and configuration information about the switch module, see the Cisco

Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP documentation on Cisco.com. For system requirements, important

notes, limitations, open and resolved caveats, and last-minute documentation updates about the switch

module, see the release notes, also on Cisco.com.

When using the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco IOS software version

that is running on the switch module. See the "Obtaining Documentation" section on page 1-24 for

more information about the switch module publications.
