Welcome Thank you for choosing the Cisco Small Business Series Smart Gigabit Switch. The Smart Switches offer the following interfaces: • The SLM2024 and SLM2048 offer twenty four (24) or forty eight (48) gigabit copper ports, with two (2) shared copper or optical (SFP) uplink interfaces for connecting the switch to the core network.
To establish a Fast Ethernet connection using a miniGBIC port, you will need to install a MFEFX1 (100BASE-FX) or MFELX1 (100BASE-LX) 100SFP transceiver and use fiber optic cabling. NOTE On the SLM2024 and SLM2048, miniGBIC ports are shared with standard ports. If a miniGBIC port is used, then the shared standard port on the switch cannot be used. The following table defines the shared port mapping of the SLM2024 and SLM2048 switch.
G1-G2 — The switch is equipped with two autosensing gigabit Ethernet network ports, which use RJ-45 connectors. The gigabit Ethernet ports support network speeds of 10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps. They can operate in half- and full-duplex modes. Auto-sensing technology enables each port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10 Mbps, 100 Mbps, or 1000 Mbps), and adjust its speed and duplex accordingly.
in half- and full- duplex modes. Auto-sensing technology enables each port to automatically detect the speed of the device connected to it (10 Mbps or 100 Mbps), and adjust its speed and duplex mode accordingly. miniGBIC — (1-2) The miniGBIC (gigabit interface converter) port is a connection point for a miniGBIC expansion module, so the switch can be uplinked to another switch by using a fiber optical link.
• Ambient Temperature — To prevent the switch from overheating, do not operate it in an area that exceeds an ambient temperature of 104°F (40°C). • Air Flow — Be sure that there is adequate air flow around the switch. • Mechanical Loading — Be sure that the switch is level and stable to avoid any hazardous conditions. • Reliable earthing — Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
STEP 5 Connect the switch to network devices according to the the installation instructions in section 4, “Connecting the Equipment”. 3 Getting Started with the Configuration Before you begin to use the Configuration Utility, make sure that you have a computer that meets the following requirements: • Internet Explorer (version 6 or higher) or Firefox (version 3 or higher). • The Web-based configuration utility is optimized for a screen resolution of 1024 x 768.
NOTE If you have changed the switch IP address or are using DHCP to assign it, enter the new IP address assigned to the switch. The ip address of the computer you are using to configure the switch, must be on the same subnet as the switch. STEP 4 When the login page appears, enter the user name and password. The default user name is admin. The default password is admin. Passwords are case sensitive. STEP 5 Click Login. STEP 6 Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the initial configuration.
If the above recommendations do not work, try the same steps by using a different computer. The switch might have some hardware problems if the second computer also fails to establish a link, please contact technical support for further assistance.
