Trouble using documentation CD

[hallharken]

Hello,

I have bought two catalyst 2950T switchs and installed the documentation CD as indicated and successfully, but when launching it, the browser open (Internet Explorer V 6) with the following URL in adress bar http://127.0.0.1:8080/home/home.htm, but the page doesn't open (unreachable).

I have opened the home page by clicking directely on it in the explorer window of the CD, but when clicking on any link for product documentation I get uncomprehensive characters in the Internet explorer window.

Can anybody help me.

Hi

I remember from an earlier posting in the forum.....you have to

rename the expired.htm to home.htm and then it should work.

I never tried it my self.

Hope that helps

Hi Hall

When you install the cd there will be a folder CISCO created under this folder

there are more folders. In the forms folder i found the expired.htm. I guess it's

this one.

Check the forum posting where i have read it:

Just search for

"Using Cisco Documentation CD on a Win2K Pro Machine"

http://127.0.0.1:8080/expired.htm

Thank you for this solution. This solve my problem.
