Booting OmniSwitch 6800 Series Switches
For information on booting stand-alone switches and switches in stacked configurations, refer to the
sections below.
Booting a Stand-alone Switch
The OmniSwitch 6800 Series switch does not use an on/off switch. The power cord is the switch’s only
connect/disconnect device. The power connector socket is located on the switch’s rear panel. For more
information, refer to
To boot the switch, plug the power cord (provided) into the power connector socket at the switch’s rear
panel. Next, plug the power cord into an easily-accessible power source, such as a grounded AC outlet or
an Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS).
The switch immediately begins the boot process. Allow a few moments for the switch to boot completely,
then verify the status of all LEDs on the switch’s front panel. A successful boot for a stand-alone switch
displays the following LED states:
If any of the LED state differs from the states shown in the table above, refer to
for more infor-
mation. Contact Alcatel-Lucent Customer Support if the LED state persists.
For information on logging in and configuring your OmniSwitch 6800 Series switch, refer to the
OmniSwitch 6800 Series Getting Started Guide and OmniSwitch 6800 Series Switch Management Guide.
