Initial Setup
The BayStack 410-24T switch is designed for “plug-and-play” operation; in most
cases the switch can be installed and made operational using the system default
settings (see Appendix E, “
Default Settings,” for a list of default settings for the
BayStack 410-24T switch).
However, for the switch management function to become fully operational, certain
parameters must be configured. A minimal configuration is required when you
plan on remote management or TFTP operations.
If you are configuring your BayStack 410-24T switches into a stack configuration,
you will need to supply additional parameters to properly setup the stack.
This section includes the following information:
• Instructions for the initial (standalone) switch setup
• Instructions for the initial stack setup
After setting up your switch or stack configuration as described in the following
sections, proceed to Chapter 3, “
Using the Console Interface,” for detailed
descriptions of the menus and screens you can use to customize your
configuration.
Standalone Switch Setup
For the initial setup of a standalone switch, you need to enter the IP address of the
switch, the subnet mask, and the gateway address (refer to Chapter 3, “
Using the
Console Interface,” for more information about configuring your BayStack
410-24T switch).
To set the IP address, subnet mask, and gateway address for the switch:
1.
Apply power to the switch.
2.
After the Nortel Networks logo screen appears, press [Ctrl]-Y.
The Main Menu is displayed (Figure 2-13
). The Main Menu hierarchy is
described in Chapter 3, “
Using the Console Interface.”
