Console port

(RJ-45)

Power outlet

Connect the Console Cable

1

Make sure console port settings of the
switch match the settings of the
terminal, PC, or laptop. The default
settings of the switch console port are
9600 baud, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit,
no parity, and no flow control.

2

Connect the rollover console cable to
the CONSOLE port on the switch.

3

Connect the other end of the rollover
cable to your terminal, PC, or laptop
(if necessary, use an appropriate
adapter, such as the supplied
RJ-45-to-DB-9 adapter).

4

From your terminal, PC, or laptop, start
the terminal emulation program.

Power Up the Switch

1

Connect one end of the power cord to
the switch and the other end to a power
source.

2

Wait approximately 2 minutes for the
switch to complete its power-on self-test
(POST) and to discover the network.

After POST completes, the Continue
with configuration dialog? prompt
appears on the management station.
You can then follow the prompts to
assign IP information to the switch.

4

Assign IP Information to the Switch

The switch is designed to operate with little
or no user intervention. In most cases, you
can use it with its default settings.

Assign IP information to the switch so that
you can use the Cisco 1548 Switch Manager
web-based interface and the switch can
communicate with local routers and the
Internet.

Contact your system administrator for the
switch IP information, and record it here.

Switch IP address:

Subnet mask:

Default gateway:

1

From the terminal or PC, enter Y:

Continue with configuration dialog? Y

2

Enter the IP address (for example:

10.1.105.20):

Enter IP address: 10.1.105.20

3

Enter the subnet mask (IP netmask)
(for example: 255.255.255.0):

Enter IP netmask: 255.255.255.0

4

Enter the IP address of the default
gateway (for example: 10.1.105.254):

Enter IP default gateway: 10.1.105.254

The following information is displayed:

The following configuration command
script was created:
ip address 10.1.105.20 255.255.255.0
ip default-gateway 10.1.105.254
!
end

5

Enter Y:

Use this configuration? Y

The following information is displayed:

Building configuration...
Use the enabled mode ‘configuration’
command to modify this configuration.

Press RETURN to get started.

6

Press Return.

7

Exit from the terminal session.

You can now display the Cisco 1548 Switch
Manager.

5

Display the Cisco 1548 Switch Manager

If you have the IP address to the switch, you can display the Cisco 1548 Switch Manager from
your intranet. You can use the Cisco 1548 Switch Manager to configure and monitor the
switch.

1

Start Netscape Communicator (4.03 or higher) or Microsoft Internet Explorer
(4.01 or higher). Make sure that Java and JavaScript are enabled.

2

Enter the IP address of the switch in the URL field if you are using Communicator
(the Address field if you are using Internet Explorer).

The Cisco 1548 Switch Manager Home page appears.

Note: The Cisco 1548M Micro Switch 10/100 Installation and Configuration Guide and the
Cisco 1548 Switch Manager online help provide complete information about the web console
and describe how to configure the switch.
