•IP address
•Subnet mask list
•Default gateway
See the device manager online help for complete guidelines and procedures.
During the initial setup, a username and password to the switch might have been assigned. The default username is cisco. The default password is cisco. You can find out or change this information through the Cisco Configuration Assistant.
