When the self test completes successfully:

The

Power and Fan Status LEDs remain on.

The

Fault and Test LEDs go off.

behave according to their function, Link or Activity.

If the ports are not connected to active network devices, the LEDs
will stay off.

If the LED display is different than what is described above, especially if
the

Fault and Test LEDs stay on for more than 60 seconds or they start

blinking, the self test has not completed correctly. Refer to chapter 4,

The 12-24 screws supplied with the switch are the correct threading for
standard EIA/TIA open 19-inch racks. If you are installing the switch in an
equipment cabinet such as a server cabinet, use the clips and screws that came
with the cabinet in place of the 12-24 screws that are supplied with the switch.

Complete step 1, and plan which four holes you will be using in the cabinet
and install all four clips. Then proceed to step 2.
