Step 9 Enter N when the prompt asks if you want to enable the switch as a cluster command switch. This switch will be a standalone switch that does not support clustering.

Would you like to enable as a cluster command switch? [yes/no]: no

The switch displays its initial configuration, as shown on the right.

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 FastEthernet0/1

!

interface FastEthernet0/2

...<output abbreviated>

interface FastEthernet1/0/3

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.

If you want to save the configuration and use it the next time the switch reboots, save it in NVRAM by selecting option 2.

Enter your selection [2]:2

Make your selection, and press Return.

Step 11 Disconnect the switch from the PC, and install the switch in your network. See the “Managing the Switch through the CLI” section on page 8 for information about configuring and managing the switch.

If you need to rerun the initial configuration dialog, see the “Resetting the Switch” section on page 13.

4Managing the Switch through the CLI

After you install the switch in your network, you can enter Cisco IOS commands and parameters through the CLI. Access the CLI either by connecting your PC directly to the switch console port or through a Telnet session from a remote PC or workstation.

Other Management Options

You can use SNMP management applications such as CiscoWorks Small Network Management Solution (SNMS) and

HP OpenView to configure and manage the switch. You also can manage it from an SNMP-compatible workstation that is running platforms such as HP OpenView or SunNet Manager.
