[. . . ] In this environment, your management station and any network device you want to manage over the network must have a valid IP address. Valid IP addresses consist of four numbers, 0 to 255, separated by periods. Each address consists of a network portion and host portion. For example, the IP address assigned to this switch, 10. 1. 0. 1, with subnet mask 255. 255. 255. 0, consists of a network portion (10. 1. 0) and a host portion (1). Note: The IP address for this switch is obtained via DHCP by default. To access the switch through a Telnet session, you must first set the IP address for the Master unit, and set the default gateway if you are managing the switch from a different IP subnet. For example, Console(config)#interface vlan 1 Console(config-if)#ip address 10. 1. 0. 254 255. 255. 255. 0 Console(config-if)#exit Console(config)#ip default-gateway 10. 1. 0. 254 If your corporate network is connected to another network outside your office or to the Internet, you need to apply for a registered IP address. However, if you are attached to an isolated network, then you can use any IP address that matches the network segment to which you are attached. After you configure the switch with an IP address, you can open a Telnet session by performing these steps: 1. From the remote host, enter the Telnet command and the IP address of the device you want to access. At the prompt, enter the user name and system password. The CLI will display the "Vty-n#" prompt for the administrator to show that you are using privileged access mode (i. e. , Privileged Exec), or "Vty-n>" for the guest to show that you are using normal access mode (i. e. , Normal Exec), where n indicates the number of the current Telnet session. Enter the necessary commands to complete your desired tasks. When finished, exit the session with the "quit" or "exit" command. 3. 4. After entering the Telnet command, the login screen displays: Username: admin Password: CLI session with the SMC6128PL2 is opened. Vty-0# Note: You can open up to four sessions to the device via Telnet. 4-2 Entering Commands 4 Entering Commands This section describes how to enter CLI commands. Keywords and Arguments A CLI command is a series of keywords and arguments. Keywords identify a command, and arguments specify configuration parameters. For example, in the command "show interfaces status ethernet 1/5, " show interfaces and status are keywords, ethernet is an argument that specifies the interface type, and 1/5 specifies the unit/port. You can enter commands as follows: · To enter a simple command, enter the command keyword. · To enter multiple commands, enter each command in the required order. For example, to enable Privileged Exec command mode, and display the startup configuration, enter: Console>enable Console#show startup-config · To enter commands that require parameters, enter the required parameters after the command keyword. For example, to set a password for the administrator, enter: Console(config)#username admin password 0 smith Minimum Abbreviation The CLI will accept a minimum number of characters that uniquely identify a command. [. . . ] The eight values are mapped one-to-one to the Class of Service categories by default, but may be configured differently to suit the requirements for specific network applications. Layer 2 Data Link layer in the ISO 7-Layer Data Communications Protocol. This is related directly to the hardware interface for network devices and passes on traffic based on MAC addresses. Link Aggregation See Port Trunk. Link Aggregation Control Protocol Allows ports to automatically negotiate a trunked link with LACP-configured ports on another device. Link Layer Discovery Protocol LLDP is used to discover basic information about neighboring devices in the local broadcast domain by using periodic broadcasts to advertise information such as device identification, capabilities and configuration settings. Management Information Base An acronym for Management Information Base. It is a set of database objects that contains information about a specific device. MD5 Message-Digest Algorithm An algorithm that is used to create digital signatures. It is intended for use with 32 bit machines and is safer than the MD4 algorithm, which has been broken. [. . . ]
