3 Running Express Setup When you first set up the switch, you should use Express Setup to enter the initial IP information. This enables the switch to connect to local routers and the Internet. You can then access the switch through the IP address for further configuration. To run Express Setup: Step 1 Make sure that nothing is connected to the switch. During Express Setup, the switch acts as a DHCP server.
Step 7 Connect a Category 5 Ethernet cable to any 10/100 or 10/100/1000 Ethernet port on the switch front panel. 1 SYST RPS 1X STAT DUPLX SPEED PoE MODE 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 15X 17X 2X 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 31X 33X 16X 18X 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 Catalyst 3560G 48 SERIES PoE-48 47X 32X 34X 49 51 Connect the other end of the cable to the Ethernet port on your PC.
Step 10 Enter this information in the Network Settings fields: • In the Management Interface (VLAN ID) field, the default is 1. Enter a new VLAN ID only if you want to change the management interface through which you manage the switch. The VLAN ID range is 1 to 1001. • In the IP Address field, enter the IP address of the switch. In the IP Subnet Mask field, click the drop-down arrow, and select an IP Subnet Mask. • In the Default Gateway field, enter the IP address for the default gateway (router).
Step 13 (Optional) Enter this information in the Advanced Setting fields: • In the Telnet Access field, click Enable if you are going to use Telnet to manage the switch by using the command-line interface (CLI). If you enable Telnet access, you must enter a Telnet password. • In the Telnet Password field, enter a password. The Telnet password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, is case sensitive, allows embedded spaces, but does not allow spaces at the beginning or end.
Refreshing the PC IP Address After you complete Express Setup, you should refresh the PC IP address. For a dynamically assigned IP address, disconnect the PC from the switch, and reconnect it to the network. The network DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the PC. For a statically assigned IP address, change it to the previously configured IP address.
3. Download the Network Assistant installer, and run it. (You can run it directly from the Web if your browser offers this choice.) 4. When you run the installer, follow the displayed instructions. In the final panel, click Finish to complete the Network Assistant installation. Refer to the Network Assistant online help and the getting started guide for more information. Command-Line Interface You can enter Cisco IOS commands and parameters through the CLI.
5 Installing the Switch Depending on the switch model, you can install the switch in a rack, on a wall, on or under a desk or shelf, and with a magnet or rack-mount brackets. This section covers rack-, desk-, shelf-, and magnet-mounting a switch. Depending on the switch, For alternate mounting procedures, see the Catalyst 3560 Switch Hardware Installation Guide on Cisco.com.
• When placing the Catalyst 3560-8PC switch on a flat horizontal surface without the magnet, we strongly recommend that you attach the rubber feet to the switch. Doing so helps prevent airflow restriction and overheating. • Do not stack switches or place Catalyst 3560-8PC switches side-by-side, unless they are separated all around by at least 3 inches (7.6 cm) of clearance from each other. • Do not wall-mount the Catalyst 3560-8PC switch with its front panel facing up or to the side.
Warning Installation of the equipment must comply with local and national electrical codes. Statement 1074 Warning To prevent bodily injury when mounting or servicing this unit in a rack, you must take special precautions to ensure that the system remains stable. The following guidelines are provided to ensure your safety: • This unit should be mounted at the bottom of the rack if it is the only unit in the rack.
Warning For connections outside the building where the equipment is installed, the following ports must be connected through an approved network termination unit with integral circuit protection: 10/100/1000 Ethernet. Statement 1044 Warning Voltages that present a shock hazard may exist on Power over Ethernet (PoE) circuits if interconnections are made using uninsulated exposed metal contacts, conductors, or terminals.
Attaching the Brackets Use four Phillips flat-head screws to attach the long side of the brackets to Catalyst 3560 switches in one of three mounting positions.
Mounting the Switch in a Rack Use the black Phillips machine screw to attach the cable guide to the left or right bracket. Use the four number-12 Phillips machine screws to attach the brackets to the rack.
Securing the Switch on a Desk or Shelf (only the Catalyst 3560-8PC Switch) Note This section is specific to the Catalyst 3560-8PC switch. For installation information for other Catalyst 3560 switches, see “Rack-Mounting the Switch (All Catalyst 3560 Switches Except the Catalyst 3560-8PC Switch)” section on page 14. To place the switch on a desk without using the mounting screws, simply attach the four rubber feet on the bottom panel of the switch.
4. Place the switch onto the mounting screws, and slide it forward until it locks in place.
Mounting the Switch with a Magnet Panel (only the Catalyst 3560-8PC Switch) Note This section only applies to the Catalyst 3560-8PC switch. For installation information for all other Catalyst 3560 switches, see “Rack-Mounting the Switch (All Catalyst 3560 Switches Except the Catalyst 3560-8PC Switch)” section on page 14. Follow these steps: 1. Position the mounting magnet on the mounting surface. 2. Place the bottom of the switch on the mounting magnet.
6 Connecting to the Switch Ports This section describes how to connect to the switch ports, the SFP module ports, and to the dual-purpose ports. It also describes how to verify your connections. For additional cabling information, see the Catalyst 3560 Switch Hardware Installation Guide on Cisco.com.
Installing an SFP Module and Connecting to a Module Port Follow these steps: Step 1 Grasp the module on the sides, and insert it into the switch slot until you feel the connector snap into place. 33 34 35 33X 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 Catalyst 35 60G SERIES 48 PoE-48 47X 34X 1 49 51 2 1 50 48X 52 2 SFP module Step 2 Insert an appropriate cable into the module port.
Connecting to a Dual-Purpose Port For information about using the SFP module port, see the “Installing an SFP Module and Connecting to a Module Port” section on page 21. Follow these steps: Insert either an RJ-45 connector to the 10/100/1000 port, or install an SFP module into the SFP module slot, and connect a cable to the SFP module port. Only one port can be active at a time. If both ports are connected, the SFP module port has priority. The priority setting is not configurable.
