Rear Chassis Connections and Features
The Reset button is used to restart the switch. Use a paper clip or other small,
pointed object to press the Reset button.
A console serial port (RJ-45) provides for switch management using standard
console equipment. (See
Figure 1-5.) A connector pinout table is provided in
Appendix A, “Specifications,” for the console and management ports.
The Management port on the rear panel offers the same TCP/IP based
management services available via inband access (telnet SNMP etc.). IP address
configuration via BOOTP is supported on the Management port; it also supports
image download to the switch.
A USB connector is provided for future expansion.
The Compact Flash port accepts both 64-MB and 128-MB Type 1 compact Flash
cards. You can use it for file transfer tasks such as loading a new software image.
The Flash card is optional and can be obtained from third-party suppliers.
