Bias-Free Language

The documentation set for this product strives to use bias-free language. For the purposes of this documentation set, bias-free is defined as language that does not imply discrimination based on age, disability, gender, racial identity, ethnic identity, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, and intersectionality. Exceptions may be present in the documentation due to language that is hardcoded in the user interfaces of the product software, language used based on RFP documentation, or language that is used by a referenced third-party product.

Before You Begin If your PC has a static IP address, change your PC settings to temporarily use DHCP.

  1. If you want to configure wireless controller and APs, connect them now to the switch. Verify that no other devices are connected to the switch. Initially, the switch acts as a DHCP server.
  2. Confirm that the STAT LED is solid green. This indicates that POST is complete. If the STAT LED turns amber, the device failed POST. Reconnect the AC power cord to the AC power connector of your device and to a grounded AC outlet. If the STAT LED still does not turn green, contact your Cisco representative or retailer. 
  3. Press and hold the Mode button for 3 seconds. When all the LEDs next to the Mode button turn green, release the Mode button immediately.

Caution: If the LEDs next to the Mode button blink green, release the button. Blinking green LEDs indicate that the device is already in Setup mode. Continuing to hold the Mode button after the LEDs have turned green, exits the Setup mode.

  1. Connect a straight-through Category 5 Ethernet cable to a 10/100/1000 Ethernet port on the switch front panel and to the Ethernet port on the PC.
  2. Verify that the port LEDs on the PC and on your device are solid green or blinking green. This indicates a successful connection.
  3. Wait for a minute until the switch assigns an IP address to the PC.
  4. To log on to the device, type the IP address https://192.168.1.1 in the address bar of your Web browser on your PC a press Enter.
  5. Type the following default credentials: username (smartm) and password (c2960lsm) and click OK.
  6.  

Note: It is recommended to create a new username and password after the first login and delete the default credentials. Continue configuration the device using the Cisco Configuration Professional for Catalyst.
