When using Cisco switches there is a need to remotely manage the switches in order to apply , monitor and change the switch configuration, to do so we need to assign the switch an IP address.
To set an IP address on the Switch:
Log onto the router using the console cable and type:
Switch(config)#int vlan 1
Switch(config-if)#ip address 10.60.1.1 255.255.248.0
Switch(config-if)#no shut
Switch(config-if)#end
To set a new password on the Switch Type:
Switch#config t�
Switch(config)#enable secret Myint771
Switch(config)#end
Don’t forget to save the the changes using:
Switch#copy run start
