Cisco configuration

Initial switch configuration

  • Connect PC to switch using parallel/console connection
  • Open terminal emulation program (i.e. Putty)
    • Use serial connection (check Windows device manager - Ports(COM & LPT) to check which port to use)
    • Speed: 9600
    • Press connect
  • If the switch has not been configured (or has had a factory reset) you're asked to enter the initial configuration dialog; type no!:
  • Initial mode is user mode (Switch> prompt)
  • Typing enable gets you into privilege mode (Switch# prompt)
  • Typing ? shows available commands
  • Tab completion is available but if it's clear that only 1 command is available, finishing it is not necessary.
