What to do next
When you complete the switch installation, see After Switch Installation, on page 25 for information on
switch configuration.
After Switch Installation
• Configure the switch. For more information, see Setting up the Switch, on page 51.
• Connect to the front-panel ports.
Connecting to the StackWise Ports
Before you begin
Before connecting the StackWise cables, read the "Planning a Switch Data Stack" section. Always use a
Cisco-approved StackWise cable to connect the switches.
Procedure
Step 1 Remove the dust covers from the StackWise cables and StackWise ports, and store them for future use.
A StackWise adapter must be installed in the StackWise port to enable stacking. In the default setup, the
StackWise adapter blanks are installed in the StackWise ports. If StackWise stacking is ordered with the
switch, StackWise adapters are already installed in the StackWise ports, and you can proceed to step 4.
Step 2 Remove the StackWise adapter blanks from each destination StackWise port using the Torx T15 Allen key
provided in the stacking kit (or a Torx T15 screwdriver). Store them for future use.
Step 3 Install a StackWise adapter in each destination StackWise port, and secure it in place using the supplied Torx
T15 key, or a Torx T15 screwdriver.
