Audience

This guide is for the networking professional using the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) to manage the standalone Cisco Catalyst Switch Module 3110 for IBM BladeCenter, the switch stack, or the Cisco Catalyst Switch Module 3012 for IBM BladeCenter, referred to as the switch. Before using this guide, you should have experience working with the Cisco IOS commands and the switch software features. Before using this guide, you should have experience working with the concepts and terminology of Ethernet and local area networking.

The Catalyst Switch Module 3110 is also referred to as a stacking-capable switch, and the Catalyst Switch Module 3012 is referred to as a nonstacking-capable switch.

You install the switch in the IBM BladeCenter server chassis, referred to as the enclosure. For information about the IBM BladeCenter server chassis, see your chassis documentation.

Purpose
