Blank faceplates and cover panels serve three important functions: they
prevent exposure to hazardous voltages and currents inside the chassis; they
contain electromagnetic interference (EMI) that might disrupt other equipment;
and they direct the flow of cooling air through the chassis. Do not operate the
system unless all cards, faceplates, front covers, and rear covers are in place.
Statement 1029
To power up the switch and verify hardware operation, follow these steps:
Verify that the faceplates of all modules are flush with the front of the chassis,
and the ejector levers are fully closed and approximately parallel to the front of the
module.
Verify that any empty module slots have filler panels installed.
Verify that both power supplies and the fan module are installed.
Check the captive screws of the power supplies, fan module, and all supervisor,
switching, or services modules, and tighten any loose captive screws.
Connect the black cable provided in the accessory kit to the console port on the
switch and to the console terminal (see the
section on page
3-2).
Do not connect the MGMT 10/100 Ethernet port to the LAN until the initial
switch configuration has been performed. For instructions on configuring the
switch, refer to the Cisco MDS 9000 Family Configuration Guide.
Ensure that the switch is adequately grounded as described in the
Chassis" section on page
that have the required AC power voltages (provided in the
section on page

Power up the switch by moving the power switches on the power supplies to the
on (|) position. The switch boots automatically.
