Installing and configuring the Edge Switch 2/2444
Set the switch online
When the switch is set online, an attached device can log into the switch if the port is not blocked.

these steps to set the switch online:
1. Open HAFM. The Products View page is displayed.
2. Double-click the appropriate switch icon. The Hardware View page for the selected switch is

5. Click OK. The Status table displays Online.
Set the switch offline
When the Edge Switch 2/24 is set offline, all ports are set offline. The switch transmits the offline
sequence (OLS) to attached devices, and the devices cannot log in to the switch. Use these steps to
set the switch offline:

2. Open HAFM. The Products View page is displayed.
3. Select the appropriate switch icon. The Hardware View page for the selected switch is
displayed.
4. Select Maintenance > Set Online State. If the switch is online, the Set Online State dialog box is
displayed, indicating the status is Online.
5. Click Set Offline. A Warning dialog box is displayed, indicating the switch will be set offline.
6. Click OK.
