Installing the HP 8200 zl Switches
Installation Procedures
Installing the HP 8200 zl
Switches
When the test completes successfully:
■ The Power LED stays on, and the Status LEDs on the switch chassis stay
on for the devices installed: one for each switch module installed, one for
each power supply installed, and one for all the fans.
■ The Fault, Locator, and Test LEDs are off.
■ The port LEDs on the switch modules go into their normal operational
mode:
• If the ports are connected to active network devices, the Link LEDs
stay on and the Mode LEDs behave according to the mode selected.
In the default mode (Activity), the Mode LEDs should flicker showing
network activity on the port.
• If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs
will stay off.
6. Install the Grounding Wire
If a grounding wire is to be attached to the switch chassis, the grounding lug
must be removed and a wire crimped to it and the grounding lug must be
reinstalled.
1. Use a #1 Phillips (cross-head) screwdriver and remove the grounding lug
and two screws from the back of the switch.
2. Crimp the grounding lug to a properly grounded grounding wire.
3. Re-attach the grounding lug to the switch with the two screws.
