Chapter 2 Switch Installation
To run Express Setup, follow these steps.
1. Make sure that at least one switch Ethernet port is available for Express
Setup.
During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server. If your personal
computer has a static IP address, change your personal computer settings
before you begin to temporarily use DHCP.
2. Apply power to the switch.
When the switch powers on, it begins its power on sequence. The power
on sequence takes approximately 60 seconds to complete.
3. Make sure that the power on sequence has completed by verifying that the
EIP Mod and Setup status indicators are flashing green.
If the switch fails the power on sequence, the EIP Mod status indicator
turns red.
IMPORTANT
For 1783-BMS4S2SGL or 1783-BMS4S2SGA switches, you must use
port Gi1/1 for Express Setup. Do not use the console port.
