Cisco Systems Gateway 10 quick start Using Configuration Mode to Configure Your Switch

Page 31

Configure System Management? [yes/no]: no

Step 8 If you want to access the router using SNMP, enter Yes at the prompt:

Configure SNMP Network Management? [yes]: yes

Step 9 Specify an SNMP community string.

Community string [public]: public

Using Configuration Mode to Configure Your Switch

To configure your switch from configuration mode, use the following procedure:

Step 1 Connect a console terminal to the console interface of your supervisor card.

Step 2 After a few seconds, you will see the user EXEC prompt (Switch>). Now, you may want to enter privileged EXEC mode, also known as enable mode. Type enable to enter enable mode:

Switch> enable

Note You must be in enable mode to make configuration changes.

The prompt will change to the enable prompt (#):

Switch#

Step 3 At the enable prompt (#), enter the configure terminal command to enter global configuration mode:

Switch# configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Switch(config)#

Step 4 At the global configuration mode prompt, enter the interface type slot/interface command to enter interface configuration mode:

Switch(config)# interface fastethernet 5/1

Switch(config-if)#

Step 5 In either of these configuration modes, enter changes to the switch configuration.

Step 6 Enter the end command to exit configuration mode.

Step 7 Save your settings.

Your switch is now minimally configured and can boot with the configuration you entered. To see a list of the configuration commands, enter ‘?’ at the prompt or press the help key in configuration mode.

Configuring a Default Gateway

Note The switch uses the default gateway only when it is not configured with a routing protocol.

Configure a default gateway to send data to subnets other than its own when the switch is not configured with a routing protocol. The default gateway must be the IP address of an interface on a router that is directly connected to the switch.

To configure a default gateway, perform this procedure:

Step 1 Configure a default gateway.

Switch(config)# ip default-gateway IP-address

Step 2 Verify that the default gateway is correctly displayed in the IP routing table.

Switch# show ip route

This example shows how to configure a default gateway and how to verify the configuration:

Switch# configure terminal

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.
