This Fast Install Guide lists the steps required to install the Catalyst 1700 workgroup switch using the factory default settings. This guide assumes that you are familiar with installing and managing Ethernet hubs.
Check the Catalyst 1700 package. It should contain the following items:
The Catalyst 1700 is shipped with the following configuration default settings:
These configuration defaults and how to change them are described in detail in the chapter "Catalyst 1700 Concepts Overview." See chapters "In-Band Management" and "Out-of-Band Management" for details on network management-related default settings.

When first powered-on, all LEDs light and a self-test automatically begins. (Refer to the chapter "Troubleshooting" for a description of each test.) Tests are run in reverse numerical order, beginning with test 14. While a test is running, the column of Personal Ethernet port LEDs with that test number will be off. When the test passes, its LEDs are turned back on and the next test is performed.
Each test lasts only a few seconds, with the exceptions of tests 8 and 9 which last approximately 30 seconds each.
If a test fails, the associated LED column remains off during the remainder of the tests. Upon completion of all tests the LED display will stay fixed with the column of LEDs in each passed test turned on and each failed test turned off. When all tests pass, all LEDs are turned off. The Catalyst 1700 is now installed and operational.
Using the default Dynamic Learning Mode, the Catalyst 1700 learns the port address by reading the source address of an incoming packet from an attached workstation. Until it receives the first packet, the Catalyst 1700 will discard packets destined for that workstation. To minimize this, it is recommended that the attached workstations be rebooted.
