How to Perform Switch Setup Configuration
Manually Assigning IP Information to SVIs
This task describes how to manually assign IP information to multiple switched virtual interfaces (SVIs).
Modifying the Startup Configuration

Specifying the Filename to Read and Write the System Configuration

By default, the Cisco IOS software uses the config.text file to read and write a nonvolatile copy of the
system configuration. However, you can specify a different filename, which will be loaded during the
next boot-up cycle.
Step 8 show ip redirects Verifies the configured default gateway.
Step 9 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
Command Purpose
Command Purpose
Step 1 configure terminal Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2 interface vlan vlan-id Enters interface configuration mode, and enters the VLAN to which the
IP information is assigned. The VLAN range is 1 to 4096.
Step 3 ip address ip-address subnet-mask Enters the IP address and subnet mask.
Step 4 exit Returns to global configuration mode.
Step 5 ip default-gateway ip-address Enters the IP address of the next-hop router interface that is directly
connected to the switch where a default gateway is being configured. The
default gateway receives IP packets with unresolved destination IP
addresses from the switch.
Once the default gateway is configured, the switch has connectivity to the
remote networks with which a host needs to communicate.
Note When your switch is configured to route with IP, it does not need
to have a default gateway set.
Step 6 end Returns to privileged EXEC mode.
Step 7 show interfaces vlan vlan-id Verifies the configured IP address.
Step 8 show ip redirects Verifies the configured default gateway.
Step 9 copy running-config startup-config (Optional) Saves your entries in the configuration file.
