Verify Port Connectivity
After you connect a device to the switch module port, the port LED turns amber while the switch
module establishes a link. This process takes about 30 seconds. Then the LED turns green when the
switch module and the attached device have an established link. If the LED is off, the device might not
be turned on, there might be a cable problem, or there might be a problem with the adapter installed
in the device. See the "In Case of Difficulty" section on page 27 for information about online
assistance.

In Case of Difficulty
If you experience difficulty, help is available in this section and also on Cisco.com. This section
includes how to reset the switch module, how to access online help, and where to find more
information. For help about the HP blade enclosure, see the HP documentation at
http://www.hp.com/go/bladesystem/documentation.
Resetting the Switch Module
This section describes how to reset the switch module by rerunning Express Setup. These are reasons
why you might want to reset the switch module:
• You installed the switch module in your network and cannot connect to it because you assigned
the incorrect IP address.
• You want to clear all configurations from the switch module and assign a new IP address.
• You are trying to enter Express Setup mode, and the switch module LEDs start blinking when you
press the Mode button (which means that the switch module is already configured with IP
information).
Resetting the switch module deletes the configuration and reboots the switch module.
Caution
To reset the switch module, press and hold the Mode button. The switch module LEDs begin blinking
after about 3 seconds. Continue holding down the Mode button. The LEDs stop blinking after 7 more
seconds, and then the switch module reboots.
The switch module now behaves like an unconfigured switch module. You can enter the switch module
IP information by using Express Setup as described in the "Using the Onboard Administrator to Assign
an IP Address to the Switch Module and Running Express Setup" section on page 13.
