Chapter 1 Configuring the Switch with the CLI-Based Setup Program
Entering the Initial Configuration Information
Step 8 Configure the interface by entering the switch IP address and subnet mask and
pressing Return. The IP address and subnet masks shown below are examples.
Configuring interface vlan1:
Configure IP on this interface? [yes]: yes
IP address for this interface: 10.4.120.106
Subnet mask for this interface [255.0.0.0]: 255.0.0.0
Step 9 Enter Y to configure the switch as the cluster command switch. Enter N to
configure it as a member switch or as a standalone switch.
If you enter N, the switch appears as a candidate switch in the Network Assistant
GUI. You can configure the switch as a command switch later through the CLI,
the device manager, or the Network Assistant application. To configure it later,
enter no.
Would you like to enable as a cluster command switch? [yes/no]: no
You have now completed the initial configuration of the switch, and the switch
displays that configuration. This is an example of the output that appears:
