Cisco EtherSwitch Service Modules Feature Guide

How to Configure the Cisco EtherSwitch Service Module

Configuring the Cisco EtherSwitch Service Module in the Router

This section describes how to perform the initial configuration on the router with a Cisco EtherSwitch service module installed. This section also describes the initial configuration on the Cisco EtherSwitch service module itself. Once an IP address has been configured on the Gigabit Ethernet interface on the router (representing the Cisco EtherSwitch service module), you can open a console session to the Cisco EtherSwitch service module and configure its Fast Ethernet and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces for Layer 2 or Layer 3 functionality.

Once the Cisco EtherSwitch service module interface has been configured and you boot up the service module image, you can switch back and forth between the router and the service module.
