Using the Passport 8100 Modules

Switch Configuration

The Passport 8100 Series modules provide layer 2 switching as soon as you install them and turn on the switch power. The default configuration includes a single VLAN with a VLAN ID of 1 that contains all the ports in the switch.

The only configuration you need to do for the Passport 8100 Series switch is to assign an IP address and a gateway address (default route) for remote management.

Configuring the Passport switch as a layer 2 switch consists of the following tasks:

•Confirm that all ports are in the default VLAN.

•Assign an IP address for management.

•Specify a default gateway address or default route.

•Test connectivity.

To configure the switch as a layer 2 (bridging/switching) device:

1.Confirm that all ports are in the default VLAN using the command:

show vlan info ports

The display shows the VlanId (1) and lists the port members.

2.To assign an IP address for management, use the command:

config bootconfig net mgmt ip <ipaddr/mask>

where:

<ipaddr/mask> is the IP address/subnet mask you are assigning (for example, 10.10.10.1/24).

Alternatively, you can assign an IP address to the default VLAN (VLAN ID

1)using the command config vlan 1 ip create <addr/mask>.

Note: Nortel Networks does not recommend assigning an IP address to the default VLAN. Management response is significantly degraded by managing the switch through the default VLAN.
