Figure 16. System Configuration Dialog
We start with setting up an IP address, netmask, default gateway, host name
and a secret password, to be used when we later enter the Privileged mode
for further configuration.
When we are finished with the Setup Program, we need to enable support for
telnet and HTTP server, and increase the numbers of simultaneous sessions.
We must write the configuration to NVRAM.
All the commands we issued took effect immediately (Figure 17 on page 38).
The
Write memory command made sure that the changes were saved for the
future reload of the switch.
