Using EZSwitch Setup (optional)
Once you have set up the DS-5300B in a rack or as a standalone
switch, it is time to give it power and a basic configuration. If you are
going to use the DS-5300B in a single-switch setup, you can use
EZSwitchSetup to complete the basic configuration.
See the EZSwitchSetup CD, included with DS-5300B for more
information. You can also use the Connectrix B DS-5300B Quick Start
Guide.
If you do not want to use EZSwitch Setup, follow the rest of this
section.
Providing power to the switch
To provide power to the DS-5300B:
1. Connect the power cords to both power supplies, and then to
power sources on separate circuits to protect against AC failure.
Ensure that the cords have a minimum service loop of 6 in.
available and are routed to avoid stress.
2. Power on the power supplies by flipping both AC switches to the
“I” symbol. The power supply LEDs display amber until POST is
complete, and then change to green. The switch usually requires
from 1 to 3 min to boot and complete POST.
Note: Power is supplied to the switch as soon as the first power supply is
connected and turned on.
3. After POST is complete, verify that the switch power and status
LEDs on the left of the port side of the switch are green.
