Quick Start Guide Cisco Small Business 200 Series Smart Switches
Welcome Thank you for choosing the Cisco 200 Series Smart Switch, a Cisco Small Business network communications device. This device is designed to be operational right out-of-the-box as a standard bridge. In the default configuration, it will forward packets between connecting devices after powered up. Package Contents • Cisco SF 200-24, SF 200-24P, SF 200-48, SF 200-48P, SG 200-18, SG 200-26, SG 200-26P, SG 200-50, or SG 200-50P Smart Switch. • Rackmount Kit. • Power Cord. • This Quick Start Guide.
Rack-Mount Placement If your switch is rack-mount capable, it will come with a rack-mount kit. To rack-mount the switch in any standard rack, attach the brackets to the sides of the switch with the supplied hardware and secure the brackets. CAUTION 2 For stability, load the rack from the bottom to the top, with the heaviest devices on the bottom. A top-heavy rack is likely to be unstable and might tip over.
PoE is available on the following ports: Model SF 200-24P and SG 200-26P SF 200-48P and SG 200-50P Ports 1—6 and 13—18 1—12 and 25—36 Use the following table to determine the total power budget available for all devices on your switch.
Ethernet cable, or by connecting to the same LAN where the switch is located through other switches. You can also connect your computer to the switch from another IP subnet through one or more IP routers. STEP 3 Set up the IP configuration on your computer. a. If the switch is using the default static IP address of 192.168.1.254, you must choose an IP address in the range of 192.168.1.1—192.168.1.253 that is not already being used by another device. b.
Troubleshoot Your Connection If you cannot access your switch from the web-based interface, the switch might not be reachable from your computer. You can test network connections by using the ping command. The following section shows how to use “ping” in a Windows environment: STEP 1 Open a command window by using Start > Run and enter cmd. STEP 2 At the Command window prompt enter ping and the smart switch IP address. For example ping 192.168.1.254 (the default IP address of the smart switch).
Unusually long access time: Due to the spanning tree loop detection logic, adding new connections might take 30 to 60 seconds for the affected interfaces and/or LAN to become operational. 4 Features of the Cisco Small Business Smart Switch This section describes the exterior of the smart switches including ports, LEDs, and connections. Not all models will have all of the features described.
LEDs System LED—(Green) Lights steady when the switch is powered on, and flashes when booting, performing self tests, and acquiring an IP address. If the LED flashes amber, the switch has detected a hardware failure. LINK/ACT LED—(Green) Located on the left of the port. Lights steady when a link between the corresponding port and another device is detected. Flashes when the port is passing traffic. NOTE The System and LINK/ACT LEDs are on each model of the switch.
Back Panel The power port is located on the back panel of the smart switch. 5 Returning the Device to the Factory Default Settings To use the Reset button to reboot or reset the smart switch, do the following: • To reboot the smart switch, press the Reset button for less than 10 seconds. • To restore the smart switch configuration to the factory default settings: 1.
