1. Insert the EZSwitchSetup CD into the CD-ROM drive of your setup computer. The installer will autostart in about a minute.
2. Follow the EZSwitchSetup directions for installation. Installation will take a few minutes after you click OK.
3. Wait for EZSwitchSetup to start, which should happen automatically after it is installed.
For Windows and Linux instructions, refer to the EZSwitchSetup Administrator’s Guide.
4. On the EZSwitchSetup Introduction screen, choose the option that matches your setup configuration:
• Ethernet connection. This option uses the Ethernet LAN connection you will use for running EZSwitchSetup Manager.
• Direct connection to the switch with a serial cable.
Most users will find it more convenient to use the Ethernet connection.
5. Click
Next.
The Connect Cables screen is displayed.
4. Click
Next.
• If you chose to use the Ethernet connection, the Discover Switch screen is displayed. Enter the switch WWN, following
the instructions on the Discover Switch screen. After completing switch discovery, the Set Switch IP Address screen
is displayed.
• If you chose to use the serial port connection, the Set Switch IP Address screen is immediately displayed.
The Connect Cables screen shows you the connections you need to make.
1. Connect the power cord to the switch and to a power
source (1). The power and status LEDs display amber then
green. This can take from one to three minutes.
2. Connect the switch and the setup computer to the
same LAN, using Ethernet cables (3, 5) and an Ethernet
hub or switch (2). Be sure the Ethernet hub or switch is
connected to a power source (6).
3. If you want to use a serial connection for setup, connect
your setup computer COM port (7) to the serial port on the
switch, using the serial cable shipped with the switch (4).
The serial connection settings are as follows:
• Bits per second: 9600
