Using the BayStack 350 10/100 Autosense Switch
1-6
893-00992-B
Front-panel light emitting diodes (LEDs) to monitor the following:
— Power status
— System status
— Per-port status for the following:
100 Mb/s link
10 Mb/s link
Half- and full-duplex transmission
TX/RX activity
Management enable/disable
Upgradeable device firmware in nonvolatile flash memory using the Trivial 
File Transfer Protocol (TFTP)
Flash Memory Storage
The BayStack 350 switch uses flash memory to store the switch software image. 
Flash memory allows you to update the software image with a newer version 
without changing the switch hardware. An in-band connection between the switch 
and the TFTP load host is required to download the software image (refer to 
“Software Download” on page 3-48). For information about connecting a console 
terminal for this procedure, refer to “Service Port Cabling” on page 3-2.
If a BootP server is set up properly on the network and the BayStack 350 switch 
detects a corrupted software image during the self-test, the switch automatically 
uses TFTP to download a new software image.
BootP Automatic IP Configuration
The BayStack 350 switch has a unique 48-bit hardware address, or media access 
control (MAC) address, that is printed on a label on the back panel. You use this 
MAC address when you configure the network BootP server to recognize the 
BayStack 350 switch BootP requests. A properly configured BootP server enables 
the switch to automatically learn its assigned IP address, subnet mask, IP address 
of the default router (default gateway), and software image file name. Refer to 
Appendix D, “Sample BootP Configuration File,” for an example of a BootP 
configuration file.
