Appendix D Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program

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:

 

 

hostname switch1

 

 

enable secret 5 $1$Ulq8$DlA/OiaEbl90WcBPd9cOn1

 

 

enable password enable_password

 

 

line vty 0 15

 

 

password terminal-password

 

 

no snmp-server

 

 

!

 

 

 

 

 

no ip routing

 

 

!

 

 

 

 

 

interface Vlan1

 

 

no shutdown

 

 

ip address 10.4.120.106 255.0.0.0

 

 

!

 

 

 

 

 

interface FastEthernet1/0/1
