Installation Procedures
Summary
1. Prepare the installation site (page 2-5). Ensure the physical environ-
ment is properly prepared, including having the correct network cabling
ready to connect to the switch and having an appropriate location for the
switch. See page 2-4 for some installation precautions.
Note For steps 2 and 3 below, if an E3800 switch is powered on for the first time
without a stacking module installed, stacking will be disabled and that will be
saved in the switch's running configuration. For more information, see
“Stacking Information and Topologies” on page 2-23.
2. Verify the switch passes self test (page 2-6). Plug the switch into a
power source and observe that the LEDs on the switch’s front panel
indicate correct switch operation. When self test is complete, unplug the
switch.
