Re-enter 10.0.0.1 in the browser, and press Enter.
• Did you connect a crossover instead of a straight-through Ethernet cable
between an Ethernet port of the switch and the Ethernet port of the PC or
workstation, as shown Figure 1-5.
Note See Figure B-11 on page B-9 for instructions on identifying a crossover
cable.
Note On switches running Cisco IOS Release 12.1(14)EA1 or later, you can
use the mdix auto command in the CLI to enable the automatic crossover
feature. When the automatic crossover feature is enabled, the switch
detects the required cable type for copper Ethernet connections and
configures the interfaces accordingly. Therefore, you can use either a
crossover or a straight-through cable for connections to a copper 10/100
or 10/100/1000 port on the switch, regardless the type of device on the
other end of the connection.
The automatic crossover feature is disabled by default. For configuration
information for this feature, refer to the switch software configuration
guide or the switch command reference.
If not, reconnect the cable to the Ethernet port on the switch and PC or
workstation. Wait 30 seconds before entering 10.0.0.1 in the browser.
• Did you verify that POST successfully ran before starting Express Setup?
If not, make sure that only the SYST and STAT LEDs are green before
pressing the Mode button to begin Express Setup.
Note The rest of this chapter explains how to configure a switch by using the Express
Setup web page. To configure the switch by using the command-line interface
(CLI)-based setup program, see Appendix D, “Quick Setup By Using the
CLI-Based Setup Program.”
