RESET switch The RESET switch allows you to reset and restart the switch.
Note Use a ballpoint pen tip or other small, pointed object to access the
RESET button.
CONSOLE port One 10/100/1000 port that uses an RJ-45 connector. The CONSOLE port
allows you to access the switch either locally (with a console terminal) or
remotely (with a modem). The CONSOLE port is an EIA/TIA-232
asynchronous, serial connection with hardware flow control.
The CONSOLE port has an LED associated with it.
PCMCIA slot options One PCMCIA slot is available. The Flash PC card (PCMCIA) slot holds a
Flash PC card for additional flash memory. You can use this flash memory
to store and run software images or to serve as an I/O device. Supports a
64
MB (p/n MEM-C6K-ATA-1-64M=) ATA Flash PC card. An eject button
is located on the right side, next to the slot. Pushing in on the button ejects
the Flash PC card from the slot.
The PCMCIA slot has an LED associated with it.
Uplink ports Supervisor Engine 2 has two 1000BASE-X uplink ports. The two
1000BASE-X uplink ports require GBIC transceivers.
The uplink ports have LEDs associated with them.
Note In chassis configurations where there are redundant supervisor
engines installed, the uplink ports on the supervisor engine that is in
standby mode are fully functional.
