4. Configuració i instal·lació
4.1 Desembalatge
Carefully remove the switch and all accessories from the packaging. Verify that all components are present:
- Cisco Catalyst 2960X-24PS-L Switch
- Cable d'alimentació
- Kit de muntatge en bastidor (si s'inclou)
- Console cable (RJ-45 to DB-9)
4.2 Instal·lació física
El commutador es pot instal·lar en un ordinador de sobretaula o muntar-se en un rack d'equips estàndard de 19 polzades.
Ubicació d'escriptori:
Col·loqueu l'interruptor sobre una superfície plana i estable, assegurant-vos que hi hagi una ventilació adequada al voltant del dispositiu.
Muntatge en bastidor:
- Fixeu els suports de muntatge en bastidor als costats del commutador amb els cargols proporcionats.
- Secure the switch into the equipment rack using appropriate rack screws.
- Ensure proper airflow by leaving adequate space around the switch.
4.3 Connexió de potència
Connect the provided power cord to the AC power connector on the rear of the switch and then to a grounded electrical outlet. The switch will power on automatically.
4.4 Connexió de cables de xarxa
Connect Ethernet cables from your network devices (computers, access points, IP phones) to the 24 Gigabit Ethernet ports on the front panel. For devices requiring Power over Ethernet (PoE), ensure they are connected to PoE-enabled ports.
Use the uplink ports (SFP/SFP+) for connecting to other switches or routers, typically with fiber optic cables or copper transceivers.
4.5 Accés a la configuració inicial
For initial configuration, connect a console cable from your computer's serial port to the console port on the switch. Use a terminal emulation program (e.g., PuTTY, Tera Term) with the following settings:
- Velocitat de transmissió: 9600
- Bits de dades: 8
- Paritat: cap
- Bits d'aturada: 1
- Control de flux: cap
Alternatively, if the switch has a pre-configured IP address and is accessible on the network, you can use SSH or a web-based management interface for configuration.
5. Instruccions de funcionament
5.1 Engegada/apagada
The switch powers on automatically when connected to a power source. To power off, disconnect the power cord. For controlled shutdown, use the appropriate command-line interface (CLI) commands if configured.
5.2 Indicadors LED
The front panel features various LED indicators to provide status information:
- LED del sistema: Indicates overall system status (e.g., green for normal operation, amber for fault).
- RPS LED: Indicates Redundant Power System status.
- LED d'estat del port: Located next to each Ethernet port, indicating link status, activity, and PoE status.
- Mode Button LEDs: Indicate the currently selected mode for port LEDs (e.g., Stat, Duplex, Speed, PoE).
Refer to the Cisco documentation for a detailed explanation of each LED state.
5.3 Basic Network Connectivity
Once powered on and configured, the switch will forward traffic between connected devices. Verify connectivity by checking port LEDs and testing network access from connected devices.
5.4 PoE Functionality
The 24-Port PoE switch provides power to compatible devices (e.g., IP phones, wireless access points) connected to its Ethernet ports. Ensure that the connected devices are PoE-compliant and that the switch has sufficient power budget.
6. Manteniment
6.1 Neteja
Keep the switch clean and free of dust. Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the exterior. Do not use liquid or aerosol cleaners directly on the device.
6.2 actualitzacions de microprogramari
Periodically check the Cisco website for firmware updates. Applying updates can improve performance, add new features, and address security vulnerabilities. Follow Cisco's official procedures for firmware upgrades.
6.3 Consideracions ambientals
Ensure the switch operates within its specified temperature and humidity ranges. Maintain proper ventilation to prevent overheating.
7. Solució De Problemes
Aquesta secció proporciona els passos bàsics per a la resolució de problemes comuns.
- Sense energia:
- Verifiqueu que el cable d'alimentació estigui connectat correctament tant a l'interruptor com a la presa de corrent.
- Comproveu la presa de corrent amb un altre dispositiu.
- Assegureu-vos que la font d'alimentació funcioni correctament.
- Sense connectivitat de xarxa:
- Check the port LED for the connected device. If off, reseat the cable or try a different port/cable.
- Verify the connected device is powered on and configured correctly.
- Check switch configuration for port shutdown or VLAN issues.
- PoE no funciona:
- Ensure the connected device is PoE-compliant.
- Check the PoE status LED for the port.
- Verify the switch's PoE power budget is not exceeded.
- Check PoE configuration on the switch.
For advanced troubleshooting, consult the official Cisco documentation or contact Cisco technical support.
