4.2 వెనుక ప్యానెల్

The rear panel typically houses power supply modules, fan modules, and grounding points. Specific configurations may vary.

5. సెటప్ మరియు ఇన్‌స్టాలేషన్

5.1 ర్యాక్ మౌంటు

1. Attach the provided rack-mount brackets to the sides of the switch using the supplied screws.
2. Secure the switch into a standard 19-inch equipment rack using appropriate rack screws. Ensure the switch is level and securely fastened.

5.2 పవర్ కనెక్షన్

1. Connect the power cable to the power supply module(s) at the rear of the switch.
2. Plug the other end of the power cable into a grounded AC power outlet (100 Volts nominal).
3. Ensure the power supply LEDs illuminate, indicating proper power input.

5.3 నెట్‌వర్క్ కనెక్షన్‌లు

1. Insert compatible SFP28 transceivers into the desired 25G SFP28 ports on the front panel.
2. Connect fiber optic or direct attach copper (DAC) cables from your network devices to the installed transceivers.
3. Observe the port status LEDs to confirm link establishment.

5.4 ప్రారంభ కాన్ఫిగరేషన్

For initial configuration, connect a console cable (RJ-45 to serial or USB-C to USB-A) from your management workstation to the console port on the switch. Use a terminal emulation program (e.g., PuTTY, Tera Term) with appropriate settings (typically 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit, no flow control) to access the command-line interface (CLI).

6. స్విచ్‌ను ఆపరేట్ చేయడం

6.1 పవర్ ఆన్

Once all connections are secure, power on the switch. The system will perform a power-on self-test (POST). During this process, various LEDs will flash. The System LED will typically turn solid green upon successful boot-up.

6.2 LED సూచికలు

• సిస్టమ్ LED: Indicates overall system status (e.g., green for normal operation, amber for warning, red for fault).
• స్థితి LED: Provides additional system status information.
• పోర్ట్ స్థితి LED లు: Located next to each SFP28 port, these LEDs indicate link status and activity (e.g., solid green for link, flashing green for activity, off for no link).

Refer to the Cisco documentation for a detailed explanation of all LED behaviors.
