Appendix C Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program
Accessing the CLI Through the Console Port
Step 2 Enter a hostname for the switch module after the prompt, and press Return.
The hostname is limited to 20 characters. Do not use -n, where n is a number, as the last character in a
hostname for any switch module.
Step 3 Enter an enable secret password, and press Return.
The password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, can start with a number, is case sensitive,
allows spaces, but ignores leading spaces. The secret password is encrypted, and the enable password is
in plain text.
Step 4 Enter an enable password, and press Return.
Step 5 Enter a virtual terminal (Telnet) password, and press Return.
The password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, is case sensitive, allows spaces, but ignores
leading spaces.
Step 6 (Optional) Configure Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) by responding to the prompts.
1. To configure SNMP later, press Return (which applies the default of no). If you accept the default,
you can configure SNMP later through the CLI.
Configure SNMP Network Management? [no]:
2. To configure SNMP now, enter yes.
Configure SNMP Network Management? [no]: yes
Community string [public]: public
Step 7 Enter the interface name (physical interface or VLAN name) of the interface that connects to the
management network, and press Return.
Enter vlan1 for the interface name at this prompt.
Step 8 To configure the interface, enter Yes after the prompt, and then enter the switch module IP address and
subnet mask. Press Return.
The IP address and subnet mask shown here are examples:
Configuring interface Vlan1:
Configure IP on this interface? [yes]:
IP address for this interface [10.0.0.1]:
Subnet mask for this interface [255.255.255.0] : 255.255.255.0
Class A network is 10.0.0.1, 21 subnet bits; mask is /21
Step 9 Enter no when the prompt asks you if you would like to enable the switch module as a cluster command
switch. This switch module will be a standalone switch.
Would you like to enable as a cluster command switch? [yes/no]: no
Note The Cisco Catalyst Blade Switch 3020 for HP does not support clustering.
You have now completed the initial configuration of the switch module, and the switch module displays
its initial configuration. An example of the output is shown here:
The following configuration command script was created:
