Chapter 2: Installation 5
Getting started
Before installing your AutoView 3050/3100/3200 switch, refer to the following lists to ensure you
have all items that shipped with the switch, as well as other items necessary for proper installation.
NOTE: While it is possible to use two AutoView 3050/3100/3200 switches in a cascaded configuration, it can
cause function conflicts and limit the advanced features of the switch. As a result, Avocent does not recommend
this configuration.

Setting up your network
The AutoView 3050/3100/3200 switching system uses IP addresses to uniquely identify the switch
and the target devices. The AutoView 3050/3100/3200 switch family supports both Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) and static IP addressing. Avocent recommends that IP addresses
be reserved for each switch and that they remain static while the switches are connected to the
network.
