Location Description

Lower LED

This LED is only present on Ports 1-4. These ports provide 802.3af
Power over Ethernet (PoE) support to devices (such as Access
Ports). The LED has several states:

! OFF — A non-power device (or no device) is connected; no

power is being delivered

! GREEN — The switch is delivering 48 volts to the power device

connected to that port.

! RED — There was a valid PoE connection; however, the switch

has detected that the power device is faulty. The red light will
remain until a non-faulty connection is made to the port

Changing the Name of the Switch

When the administrator first logs into the WS 2000 Network Management System, the
System Settings screen appears. One of the fields in this screen is the System Name
field. In this field, the administrator can specify the name of the switch. This name is used
to distinguish the switch from others that are on the network and it is also used to set the
device name in SNMP.

To examine and change the current name for the switch:

1. Select

System Configuration --> System Settings from the left menu.

2. Find

the

System Name field and type a string of alphanumeric characters to create a

name.

3. Select

the

Apply button to save the change.
