After the switch is mounted in the rack, you need to do these tasks to complete the
installation:
Power on the switch. See the
•
page
2-8.
Connect to a 10/100 or 10/100/1000 port and run Express Setup. See the
•
Catalyst 2970 Switch Getting Started Guide for instructions
Connect to the front-panel ports. See the
•
Ports" section on page 2-27
page 2-30
to complete the installation.
For configuration instructions about using the CLI setup program, go to
Appendix C, "Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program."
We recommend attaching the cable guide to prevent the cables from obscuring the
front panel of the switch and the other devices installed in the rack. Use the
supplied black screw shown in
right bracket.
