Cisco HWIC-4ESW and HWIC-D-9ESW EtherSwitch Interface Cards
How to Configure EtherSwitch HWICs

Cisco IOS Release 12.3(8)T4

Network managers should ensure that existing subnets have enough available IP addresses for the
new Cisco IP phones, each of which requires a unique IP address.
Administering a network with a mix of IP phones and workstations on the same subnet might pose
a challenge.
Beginning in privileged EXEC mode, follow these steps to automatically configure Cisco IP phones to
send voice and data traffic on the same VLAN.
SUMMARY STEPS
1. configure terminal
2. interface
interface-id
3. switchport access vlan
vlan-id
4. end
DETAILED STEPS
Verifying Switchport Configuration
Use the show run interface command to verify the switchport configuration.
Router# show run interface
interface-id
Use the write memory command to save the current configuration in flash memory.
Router# write memory
Managing the EtherSwitch HWIC
This section describes how to perform basic management tasks on the EtherSwitch HWIC with the Cisco
IOS CLI. You might find this information useful when you configure the switch for the previous
scenarios.
The following topics are included:
Adding Trap Managers, page 62
Configuring IP Information, page 62
Enabling Switch Port Analyzer, page 65
Command Purpose
Step 1
Router# configure terminal
Enters global configuration mode.
Step 2
Router(config)# interface
interface-id
Enters the interface configuration mode and the port to be
configured (e.g., interface fa0/1/1).
Step 3
Router(config-if)# switchport access vlan
vlan-id
Sets the native VLAN for untagged traffic.
The value of vlan-id represents the ID of the VLAN that is
sending and receiving untagged traffic on the port. Valid IDs
are from 1 to 1001. Leading zeroes are not accepted.
Step 4
Router# end
Returns to the privileged EXEC mode.
