c.Set the default gateway for the switch to 10.X.0.1 (where X is the pod number).

CMESwitchX(config)# ip default-gateway 10.X.0.1

d.What is the purpose of putting a default gateway on a switch? (Be specific.)

Step 10 Verify and activate the management VLANs settings

a. Verify the interface settings on VLAN 1 as follows:

CMESwitchX# show interfaces vlan 1

b.What is the bandwidth on this interface? ____________________________________________

c.What are the VLAN states: VLAN1 is ___________________________________________, line protocol is _________________________.

d.What is the queuing strategy being used? ___________________________________________

e.Enable the virtual interface using the no shutdown command.

CMESwitchX(config)# interface vlan 1

CMESwitchX(config-if)# no shutdown

Step 11 Save the configuration

a.The basic configuration of the switch has just been completed. Backup the running configuration file to NVRAM.

Note: This will ensure that the changes made will not be lost if the system is rebooted or loses power.

CMESwitchX# copy running-config startup-config

Step 12 Configure the switch port as a trunk port

a.From global configuration mode, access switch interface port 1 that connects to the router.

CMESwitchX(config)# interface fastethernet 0/1

b.From interface configuration mode, set the switch to use the IEEE 802.1Q trunking protocol.

Note: If this command does not work on the switch, the switch only supports the 802.1Q trunking protocol and does not have to be programmed with this command. The next step may have to be completed before this step if an older switch is being used.

CMESwitchX(config-if)#switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q

c.From interface configuration mode, set the switch to trunking mode.

CMESwitchX(config-if)# switchport mode trunk

d.The native VLAN is the one VLAN that does not have the VLAN information tagged onto the frame as it travels across the trunk. From interface configuration mode, specify which VLAN is the native VLAN (where X is the pod number).

CMESwitchX(config-if)#switchport trunk native vlan X0
