Exec Commands

When you open a new console session on the switch with the user name and password “guest,” the system enters the Normal Exec command mode (or guest mode), displaying the “Console>” command prompt. Only a limited number of the commands are available in this mode. You can access all commands only from the Privileged Exec command mode (or administrator mode). To access Privilege Exec mode, open a new console session with the user name and password “admin.” The system will now display the “Console#” command prompt. You can also enter Privileged Exec mode from within Normal Exec mode, by entering the enable command, followed by the privileged level password “super” (page 4-27).

To enter Privileged Exec mode, enter the following user names and passwords:

Username: admin

Password: [admin login password]

CLI session with the GSW-2692 24-Port 10/100M + 2G Combo L2 Stackable Switchis opened.

To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. Console#

Username: guest

Password: [guest login password]

CLI session with the GSW-2692 24-Port 10/100M + 2G Combo L2 Stackable Switchis opened.

To end the CLI session, enter [Exit]. Console>enable

Password: [privileged level password] Console#

Configuration Commands

Configuration commands are privileged level commands used to modify switch settings. These commands modify the running configuration only and are not saved when the switch is rebooted. To store the running configuration in non-volatile storage, use the copy running-configstartup-configcommand.

The configuration commands are organized into different modes:

•Global Configuration - These commands modify the system level configuration, and include commands such as hostname and snmp-server community.

•Access Control List Configuration - These commands are used for packet filtering.

•Interface Configuration - These commands modify the port configuration such as speed-duplexand negotiation.

•Line Configuration - These commands modify the console port and Telnet configuration, and include command such as parity and databits.

•VLAN Configuration - Includes the command to create VLAN groups.

By segregating network traffic, businesses can optimize bandwidth usage and reduce congestion, contributing to overall increased network performance.

Additionally, the GSW-2692 supports Spanning Tree Protocol (STP) and Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol (RSTP), ensuring loop-free network topology. This capability is crucial in larger networking environments where multiple switches are interconnected, as it prevents broadcast storms and enhances network resilience. The switch also includes features such as port mirroring, which provides administrators with the capability to monitor network traffic in real-time for troubleshooting and analysis.

Power over Ethernet (PoE) support is another significant advantage of the GSW-2692. With PoE functionality, it enables the switch to deliver electrical power along with data to connected devices such as IP cameras, VoIP phones, and wireless access points, eliminating the need for additional power sources and simplifying installations.

In terms of physical characteristics, the LevelOne GSW-2692 is designed for efficient heat dissipation and features a fanless design, which ensures silent operation. Its desktop or rack-mountable options make it flexible for various installation environments. The switch also features a web-based management interface, which simplifies the configuration and monitoring processes, allowing for intuitive management of network settings.

Overall, the LevelOne GSW-2692 stands out as a feature-rich, reliable, and high-performance networking solution that meets the demands of modern enterprises. Its combination of advanced technologies, scalability, and ease of use makes it an excellent choice for businesses looking to enhance their network infrastructure.
