Basic Cisco switch configuration - Michele Vese [IT SHARING]
To configure a Cisco 2960 switch for basic security and remote administration, copy and paste the following commands:
BASIC CONFIGURATION:
Let's look at a basic configuration that involves setting device access passwords based on the various levels and possible access methods. Specifically, the following configuration sets the console access password to the "Enable" level, configures five simultaneous remote connections, disables Telnet access, and enables SSH only. It also activates password encryption. You can also copy and paste the list of commands below directly into your console.
For instructional purposes, I've entered "cisco" as the password for all access levels, "cisco" as the domain name, and "SW2960_001" as the hostname.
Enable
configure terminal
enable secret cisco
line console 0
password cisco
login
logging synchronous
exec-timeout 30 0
hostname SW2960_001
ip domain-name cisco (Enter)
crypto key generate rsa (Enter)
ip ssh version 2
line vty 0 4
transport input ssh
login local
username cisco
password cisco
service password-encryption
end
copy running-config startup-config (Enter)
Now let's configure the default VLAN1, which is usually assigned to the device for remote management.
We will assign the switch an IP, subnet mask, and gateway available in our network.
config terminal
interface vlan 1
ip address 192.168.1.101 255.255.255.0
no shutdown
ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1
end
copy running-config startup-config
(Enter)
(Enter)
