Chapter 2 Switch Installation

Configuring the Switch

You can enter the Optional Settings information now or enter it later by using the device manager

interface.

Figure 2-6 Advanced Settings Tab

Step 3 In the Host Name field, enter a name for the switch module. The host name is limited to 31 characters;

embedded spaces are not allowed.

Step 4 In the System Date and System Time fields, enter the current date and time, or use the down arrows to

select them.

Step 5 In the Time Zone field, use the down arrow to choose your time zone.

Step 6 Click Enable in the Daylight Savings Time field to enable this feature.

Step 7 In the Telnet A ccess field, click Enable if you are going to use Telnet to manage the switch module by

using the CLI. If you enable Telnet access, you must enter a Telnet password.

Note If you plan to create a switch stack, enable Telnet access so that you can use the CLI to set this

switch to the highest priority (usually 15). See the

“Planning and Creating a Switch Stack (Only

3130G-S and 3130X-S Switches)” section on page 2-17 for more information about creating a

switch stack.

Step 8 In the Telnet Password field, enter a password. The Telnet password can be from 1 to 25 alphanumeric

characters, is case sensitive, allows embedded spaces, but does not allow spaces at the beginning or end.

In the Confirm Telnet Password field, re-enter the Telnet password.

Step 9 In the SNMP field, click Enable to enable Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP). Enable

SNMP only if you plan to manage switches by using CiscoWorks

2000 or another SNMP-based

network-management system.

Step 10 If you enable SNMP, you must enter a community string in the SNMP Read Community field, the

SNMP Write Community field, or both. SNMP community strings authenticate access to MIB objects.

Embedded spaces are not allowed in SNMP

community strings. When you set the SNMP read

community, you can access SNMP information, but you cannot change it. When you set the SNMP write

community, you can both access and change SNMP information.
