About this Guide
This guide provides instructions on how to use Express Setup to initially configure your Catalyst
switch. Also covered are switch management options, basic rack-mounting procedures, stacking
procedures, port and module connection procedures, and troubleshooting help.
For additional installation and configuration information for Catalyst 3750-E switches, see the
Catalyst 3750-E documentation on Cisco.com. For system requirements, important notes, limitations,
open and resolved bugs, and last-minute documentation updates, see the release notes, also on
Cisco.com.
When using the online publications, refer to the documents that match the Cisco IOS software version
running on the switch. The software version is on the Cisco IOS label on the switch rear panel.
You can order printed copies of the manuals from the Cisco.com sites and from the telephone numbers
listed in the "Obtaining Documentation" section on page 24.
For translations of the warnings that appear in this publication, see the Regulatory Compliance and
