2. Switch Management
To set up the Managed Switch, the user needs to congure the Managed Switch
fornetwork management.The ManagedSwitch providestwo managementoptions:
Out-of-Band ManagementandIn-Band Management.
Out-of-Band Management
Out-of-band management is the management through console interface.
Generally, the user will use out-of-band management for the initial switch
conguration,orwhenin-bandmanagementisnotavailable.
Important
The Managed Switch is shipped with IP address 192.168.0.254/24
assigned by default. User can assign another IP address to the
Managed Switch via the console interface to be able to remotely
accesstheManagedSwitchthroughTelnetorHTTP.
In-Band Management
In-band management refers to the management by logging in to the Managed
Switchusing Telnetor HTTP, orusing SNMPmanagement softwaretocongure the
Managed Switch. In-band management enables the management of the Managed
SwitchtoattachsomedevicestotheSwitch.Thefollowing proceduresarerequired
toenablein-bandmanagement:
1. Logon to console
2.Assign/CongureIPaddress
3. Create a remote login account
4.EnableHTTPorTelnetserverontheManagedSwitch
In case in-band management fails due to Managed Switch conguration changes,
out-of-band management can be used for conguring and managing the Managed
Switch.

4. Terminal Setup
To congure the system, connect a serial cable to a COM port on a PC or
notebook computer and to serial (console) port of the Managed Switch. The
console port of the Managed Switch is DCE already, so that you can connect the
consoleportdirectlythroughPCwithouttheneedofNullModem.

4.1 Logon to the Console
Once the terminal is connected to the device, power on the Managed Switch, and
theterminalwilldisplay“running testing procedures”.
Then, the following message asks for the login user name and password. The
factory default user name and password are as follows as the login screen in
Figure4-3appears.
Username:admin
Password:admin
Figure 4-3 Managed Switch Console Login Screen
The user can now enter commands to manage the Switch. For a detailed
descriptionofthecommands,pleaserefertothefollowingchapters.
Note
1.For security reason, please change and memorize the new pass-
wordafterthisfirstsetup.
2.Accept command in lowercase or uppercase letter under console
interface.
4.2 ConguringIPAddress
The IP address conguration commands for VLAN1 interface are listed below.
Before using in-band management, the Managed Switch must be congured with
an IP address by out-of-band management (i.e. console mode). The conguration
commandsareasfollows:
Switch#cong
Switch(cong)#interface vlan 1
Switch(cong-if-Vlan1)#ip address 192.168.1.254 255.255.255.0

ThepreviouscommandwouldapplythefollowingsettingsfortheManagedSwitch.
IPv4 Address: 192.168.1.254
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Figure 4-4 Conguring IPv4 Address Screen
To check the current IP address or modify a new IP address for the Managed
Switch,pleaseusetheproceduresasfollows:
Show the current IP address
1. On “Switch#”prompt,enter“show ip interface brief”.
2.The screen displays the current IP address, subnet mask and gateway as shown
inFigure4-5.
Figure 4-5 Showing IP Information Screen
If the IP is successfully congured, the Managed Switch will apply the new IP
address setting immediately. You can access the Web interface of Managed Switch
throughthenewIPaddress.
Note
Ifyouarenotfamiliarwithconsolecommandortherelatedparam-
eter,enter“help”anytimeinconsoletogetthehelpdescription.

4.3 Setting 100BASE-TX for Gigabit Ethernet Port
The Managed Switch supports both 1000BASE-T and 100BASE-TX by manual
setting and the default Ethernet port speed is set to 1000Mbps. To establish the
UTPconnectionwith100BASE-TX,thefollowingcommandcongurationisrequired:
Switch#cong
Switch_cong#interface gigaethernet 0/1
Switch_cong_g0/1#speed 100
Switch_cong_g0/1#exit
Switch_cong#interface range gigaethernet 0/2-8
Switch_cong_if_range#speed 100
Switch_cong_if_range#
Figure 4-6 Setting 100BASE-TX Screen
4.4 Setting 1000BASE-X for SFP+ Port
The Managed Switch supports both 1000BASE-X and 10GBASE-X SFP
transceivers by manual setting and the default SFP+ port speed is set to 10Gbps.
For example, to establish the ber connection with 1000BASE-X SFP transceiver in
the tgigaethernet 1/1,thefollowingcommandcongurationisrequired:
Switch#cong
Switch_cong#interface tgigaethernet 1/1
Switch_cong_tg1/1#speed 1000
Switch_cong_tg1/1#exit
Switch_cong#interface range tgigaethernet 1/2-12
Switch_cong_if_range#speed 1000
Switch_cong_if_range#

4.5 Changing Password
The default password of the switch is “admin”. For security reason, it is
recommended to change password and the following command conguration is
required:

4.6 SavingtheConguration
InManaged Switch,therunningcongurationle storesinthe RAM.Inthe current
version, the running conguration sequence running-cong can be saved from the
RAM to FLASH by write command, so that the running conguration sequence
becomesthestart-upcongurationle,whichiscalledcongurationsave.
