Entering the Initial Configuration Information

 

Step 3

Enter an enable secret password, and press Return.

 

 

The password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, can start with a number, is case sensitive,

 

 

allows spaces, but ignores leading spaces. The secret password is encrypted and the enable password is

 

 

in plain text.

 

 

Enter enable secret: secret_password

 

Step 4

Enter an enable password, and press Return.

 

 

Enter enable password: enable_password

 

Step 5

Enter a virtual terminal (Telnet) password, and press Return.

 

 

The password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, is case sensitive, allows spaces, but ignores

 

 

leading spaces.

 

 

Enter virtual terminal password: terminal-password

 

Step 6

(Optional) Configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) by responding to the prompts.

 

 

You can also configure SNMP later through the CLI. To configure SNMP later, enter no.

 

 

Configure SNMP Network Management? [no]: no

 

Step 7

Enter the interface name (physical interface or VLAN name) of the interface that connects to the

 

 

management network, and press Return. For this release, always use vlan1 as that interface.

 

 

Enter interface name used to connect to the

 

 

management network from the above interface summary: vlan1

 

Step 8

Configure the interface by entering the switch IP address and subnet mask and pressing Return. The IP

 

 

address and subnet masks shown below are examples.

 

 

Configuring interface vlan1:

 

 

Configure IP on this interface? [yes]: yes

 

 

IP address for this interface: 10.4.120.106

 

 

Subnet mask for this interface [255.0.0.0]: 255.0.0.0

 

Step 9

Enter Y to configure the switch as the cluster command switch. Enter N to configure it as a member

 

 

switch or as a standalone switch.

 

 

If you enter N, you can configure the switch as a command switch later through the CLI. To configure

 

 

it later, enter no.

 

 

Would you like to enable as a cluster command switch? [yes/no]: no

 

 

You have now completed the initial configuration of the switch, and the switch displays its initial

 

 

configuration. This is an example of output that appears:

 

 

The following configuration command script was created:

ME 3400 specifications

Cisco Systems ME 3400 Series is a robust family of Ethernet access switches designed specifically for service provider environments. These switches are engineered to deliver excellent performance, reliability, and flexibility, making them ideal for deploying Layer 2 and Layer 3 services to residential and business customers.

One of the prominent features of the ME 3400 series is its support for advanced Ethernet technologies. It provides extensive support for both traditional and modern Ethernet services, including Carrier Ethernet. With features such as Ethernet Operations, Administration, and Maintenance (EOAM), the ME 3400 aids in managing network performance and troubleshooting issues effectively. This capability ensures that service providers can deliver high-quality services and maintain optimal network health.

The ME 3400 series includes various models that support a range of port configurations, enabling scalability and adaptability to different network needs. This includes support for both Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces. The switches can accommodate multiple speed configurations, making them versatile for diverse deployment scenarios, from small businesses to large enterprise networks.

Another key characteristic of the ME 3400 is its integrated support for resilient Ethernet technologies, such as EtherChannel, Spanning Tree Protocol (STP), and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP). These technologies enhance redundancy and improve network reliability, crucial for service providers who require minimal downtime and high service availability.

Security is a top priority for service providers, and the ME 3400 series addresses this with extensive security features. It supports VLANs for traffic segmentation, access control lists (ACLs) for traffic filtering, and DHCP snooping to prevent unauthorized access to the network. These security measures ensure that both consumer and enterprise traffic remains isolated and secure.

Additionally, the ME 3400 series supports IPv4 and IPv6 routing, offering flexibility for service providers to cater to a broad customer base. The ability to manage both protocols ensures that networks can evolve seamlessly as internet traffic transitions to IPv6.

With energy efficiency increasingly becoming a concern, Cisco has integrated power-saving features into the ME 3400 series. These switches support Energy Efficient Ethernet (EEE) technology, which reduces power consumption during periods of low traffic, helping service providers to reduce operational costs.

In summary, the Cisco ME 3400 series is a versatile platform rich in features that streamline service delivery while ensuring high performance, security, and energy efficiency. It is an ideal choice for service providers looking to enhance their Ethernet services and meet evolving customer demands.
