Configuring the Switch

You have now completed the initial configuration of the switch, and the switch displays its initial configuration. An example of the output is shown here:

The following configuration command script was created: hostname switch1

enable secret 5 $1$cagJ$e4LP91PNazfdADoNAZm6y0 enable password enable_password

line vty 0 15

password terminal-password snmp-server community public

!

!

interface Vlan1 no shutdown

ip address 10.0.0.1 255.255.255.0

!

interface GigabitEthernet0/1

!

interface GigabitEthernet0/2

. . . (output truncated)

interface GigabitEthernet0/16

!

end

Step 10 These choices appear:

[0]Go to the IOS command prompt without saving this config.

[1]Return back to the setup without saving this config.

[2]Save this configuration to nvram and exit.
