Figure3-6 Manage the Switch by Telnet

Step 1: Configure the IP addresses for the switch and start the Telnet Serverfunction on the switch.First is the

configuration of host IP address. This should be within the same network segment as the switch VLAN1

interface IP address. Suppose the switch VLAN1 interface IP address is 10.1.128.251/24. Then, a possible

host IP address is 10.1.128.252/24. Run “ping 10.1.128.251” from the host and verify the result.Check for

reasons if ping fails.

The IP address configuration commands for VLAN1 interface are listed below. Before in-band management is

used, the switch must be configured with an IP address by out-of-band management (i.e. Console mode). The

configuration commands are as follows (All switch configuration prompts are assumed to be “Switch”

hereafter if not otherwise specified.):

Switch#

Switch#config

Switch_config#interface vlan 1

Switch_config_v1#ip address 10.1.128.251 255.255.255.0

Switch_config_v1#exit

Switch_config#write

Step 2: Run Telnet Client program.

Run Telnet client program included in Windows with the specified Telnet target.
