2. SETTING UP FOR MANAGEMENT
Your Switch can operate in its default state, that is, you can install it and it will work
straight away (plug-and-play). However, to make full use of the features offered by the
Switch, and to change and monitor the way it works, you have to access the manage-
ment software that resides on the Switch. This is known as managing the Switch.
Managing the Switch can help you to improve the efficiency of the Switch and there-
fore the overall performance of your network.
IP Configuration
When the switch is powered up and connected to a network, the switch will obtain an
address from the DHCP server. If there is no DHCP server available, the switch will use
a default IP address of 169.254.xx.yy, where xx and yy are the last two bytes of the
MAC address. This default IP address is also printed on the label attached to the
underside of your switch.
Before you can manage your switch, you will need to determine it’s IP address to allow
a web browser to connect to it. You can do this either by connecting your workstation
to the console interface using the cable supplied, or using the 3Com Switch Detect
application that can be found on the CD that was supplied with the Switch.
Please follow the instructions below to determine and/or configure the IP address of
your switch.
Using the Console Interface
1. Connect the DB-9 to RJ-45 serial cable between your workstation (to it’s COM port)
and the Switch. Take care not to connect it to a data port on the Switch.
2. Using a terminal emulator program, for example HyperTerminal, connect to the
appropriate COM port on the workstation and ensure the following parameters are
set: 38400 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit and no flow control.
3. If the Switch is not already powered up, power it up now and wait for the boot up
sequence to complete.
4. When the boot up sequence is completed, you will be presented with a login
prompt. The default username is admin. No password is required.
5. To show the IP address the switch is using, enter IP status and press Return. The
switch will display the IP address the switch is using. This address can now be used
in your preferred web browser to connect to the Switch User Interface. Use the
same username to log in.
6. If you want to manually assign an IP address, enter the following commands:
IP dhcp disableand press Return
IP Setup <IP Address> <ipmask> <gateway>and press Return
For example: IP Setup 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.0 192.168.1.1
You can now direct the web browser at the 192.168.1.2 address.

Using the 3Com Switch Detect Application
3 CONNECTING WORKSTATIONS
1. On the computer that is connected to your Switch (either directly or on a network
that is on the same subnet), insert the CD-ROM into its CD drive. If you have
autorunenabled, you will be presented with a menu showing the contents of the
CD-ROM.
2. Select the 3Com Detect Application link to install the utility. Follow the onscreen
instructions.
3. If the auto-run program does not start, you should browse to your CD-ROM drive,
go to the /switch detectdirectory and double click on setup.exe. Follow the
prompts that will take you through the installation process.
Twisted Pair (TP) Cables
Cables can be shielded (screened) or unshielded. Cables must be Category 5 or above.
3Com recommends Category 5E or 6 cable for Gigabit connections. The maximum
length you can use is 100 m (328 ft).
Twisted Pair (TP) cable is very easy to use. To connect a TP cable, simply slot the con-
nector into the relevant RJ-45 Port. When a connector is fully in, its latch locks into
place. To disconnect the cable, push the connector’s latch in and remove it.
When one end of a TP cable is connected to the Switch and the other end is connect-
ed to the network interface card of a workstation or other device, the Switch will
automatically detect whether a straight-through or crossover cable is being used and
will compensate if required. The units will then autonegotiate to determine the fastest
possible link speed between them. This may take a few seconds and the outcome will
be reflected in the LEDs on the front of the Switch.
4. Once installed, the 3Com Switch Detect Application can be accessed from the
Windows Start/Programs list.
5. When the 3Com Detect application starts, you will be see the Welcome Screen (see
below).
6. If the computer has multiple network adapters, select the adapter that connects the
computer to the network or Switch, click "Next."
7. You will then be offered the choice of searching the same subnet that your PC is on
for a connected switch (default), or specifying an IP range. Note that specifying a
large range may take some time for the search to complete.
8. Once your Switch or Switches have been located, you will be presented with a list.
Select the switch to which you want to connect and click on "Open." Your default
Web browser will open and connect to the home page of the Switch.
If the equipment connected to the Switch does not support autonegotiation or it
has been disabled, it must be configured to operate in half duplex mode.
Expanding Your Network
You can increase the number of workstations and other devices that can connect to
your network by adding OfficeConnect gateways and switches. The Switch has auto-
matic MDI/MDIX functionality. Simply plug in the cable and the Switch will automati-
cally detect which wiring practice has been followed and will compensate accordingly.

Power LED lit but Status LED illuminated yellow.
This indicates that the switch is receiving power, but for some reason the switch is not
operational. This is most likely due to a problem with the operational software in the
unit not loading correctly.
Check the following symptoms and solutions:
Power LED not lit.
This is probably because the switch does not have power. Check the following:
Refer to the diagnostic messages displayed on the command line interface (CLI) to
help identify the problem. If the software is corrupted, you can re-load the software
from the CLI. Please follow the instructions found in the User Guide for this Switch
which can be found on the on the CD which is supplied with your Switch or which
• Make sure the power lead from the power adapter is properly connected and the
cord is not damaged.
• Ensure the power adapter is correctly fitted into the power outlet socket and that
the socket switch is turned on if applicable.
• Ensure you are using only the 3Com power adapter supplied with the switch.
If a software reload does not resolve the issue, contact 3Com Technical Support and
ask for assistance
If there is still no power, contact 3Com Technical Support and ask for assistance.
Only use the power adapter supplied with the Switch or a replacement
OfficeConnect power adapter. Do not use any other power adapter.
Port Status LED not lit for a port that has a TP cable connected.
After connection, it may take several seconds for the Port Status LEDs to illuminate.
The Port Status LED should turn Green or Yellow, for each port that is connected.
If the Port Status LED is not lit after several seconds, ensure that the connected device
is powered on, that the TP cable is not damaged and that it is correctly inserted at
both ends.
You may find that a TP cable works when connected to the Switch, but does not work
if disconnected from the Switch and connected to another device. This may be
because the other device does not have the automatic MDI/MDIX feature.
