Preface
Audience
This guide is for the networking professional managing the IE 3000 switch. Before using this guide, you should have experience working with the Cisco IOS software and be familiar with the concepts and terminology of Ethernet and local area networking.
Purpose
This guide provides the information that you need to configure Cisco IOS software features on your switch. This guide provides procedures for using the commands that have been created or changed for use with the switch. It does not provide detailed information about these commands. For detailed information about these commands, see the IE 3000 Switch Command Reference for this release. For information about the standard Cisco IOS Release 12.2 commands, see the Cisco IOS documentation set available from the Cisco.com home page at Documentation > Cisco IOS Software.
This guide does not provide detailed information on the graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for the embedded device manager. However, the concepts in this guide are applicable to the GUI user. For information about the device manager, see the switch online help.
This guide does not describe system messages you might encounter or how to install your switch. For more information, see the IE 3000 Switch System Message Guide for this release and the IE 3000 Switch Hardware Installation Guide.
For documentation updates, see the release notes for this release.
