Chapter 2 Getting Started

11. Turn off DC power at the source, disconnect all cables to the switch, and

install the switch in your network.

12. After you complete Express Setup, refresh the personal computer IP

address:
For a dynamically-assigned IP address, disconnect the personal

computer from the switch, and reconnect the personal computer to the
network. The network DHCP server assigns a new IP address to the
personal computer.

For a statically-assigned IP address, change it to the previously

configured IP address.

Switch Memory Allocation

The following table provides details on default memory allocation for the
switches.

You can use Switch Database Management (SDM) templates to configure system
resources in the switch to optimize support for specific features, depending on
how the switch is used in the network. You can use a template to provide
maximum system usage for some functions. For example, you can use the default
template to balance resources, and use the access template to obtain maximum
ACL usage. To allocate hardware resources for different usages, the switch SDM
templates prioritize system resources to optimize support for certain features.

The following SDM templates are recommended:

Default
Lanbase Routing

You can use the Lanbase Routing template for static and connected routing, or if
you have more than 180 IGMP groups or multicast routes. Other SDM
templates are available, but are not covered in detail.

You can use SDM templates for IP Version 4 (IPv4) to optimize these features.
