Cisco Catalyst 2960 enterprise switch configuration

  • This is a video over the Cisco Catalyst 2960 switch. I got this from one of my friends in my I.T. class. It came from a warehouse but it still seems to work as it should. Even though its used, $20 is still a good price.
    Something I should have done and something you should do as well is disable the unused ports. The purpose of that is to make sure no one can just walk up to the switch and plug in their own device. This can be accomplished by going into the unused interfaces and typing "shut" or "shutdown".
    For example:
    switch(config)#int f0/14
    switch(config-if)#shut
    Vlan 1 is also the default management Vlan, so that's why I used that one.
    The reason I put "notarealwebsite.com" as the domain name is because I don't really have a website or anything. So I just made one up. If you have a website, you would most likely make your domain name that url.

    Hey Nathan - out of all the videos I have been through, yours was the first straight forward guide to getting my 2960 on the network and attached to the internet - I did have to #no shut on WLAN 1 to get it going... nice job!

    Thanks. This was great, I just bought a C2950-48 port switch and this helped with doing some initial configuration. I need to update my iOS next, I also couldn't try the Gen RSA keys or set ssh up yet. Waiting for a C1841 router next week and a C3560 switch and I'll be on my way to starting my CCNA training.

    Tip for anyone having issues getting the COM port to popup under Devices (Windows 10). The rollover cable I got didn't automatically install the driver for the cable at least for me. You may need to manually install it but I would check the Windows update section first and see if you have the option to install the driver from there. I was a bit confused for a while I ended up plugging the cable into a Linux box I have and everything worked. I just got the network switch and roll-over cable so had to pinpoint the cause of the issue.

    Hi there, Great Vid. I'm just wondering if you can help me out by giving some pointers. I ended up buying the router you got which is almost the same mode - WS-C2960S-24PS-L. My question is, can you hook up your router using the SFP port to this switch that serves as uplink/downlink instead of using one of the 24 ports in the switch? My plan is to get rid of my ISP fiber modem and replace with GPON router that comes with 4 LAN ports. I noticed my switch have 4 SFP ports and wondering if I can hook them all to my router using SFP transceiver. What do you think? Thanks.

    Hey just an FYI your enable secret (password) is already encrypted and is a stronger encryption then service password-encryption. Service password-encryption encrypts all passwords that are in plain text. Enable password command would be plain text, enable secret, is already tell you it will be encrypted. So far good video

    Getting one too for cheap but not familiar with Cisco switches. I do have a question and you may have a video on it..if for instance you want to export the config file how would you do that and then import it - just in case something happens you can load into another similar switch of Cisco

    • @NM_Tech
      @NM_Tech  4 года назад +1

      I believe you would need to issue the "show run" command in privileged exec mode on the current switch, copy the running config by literally highlighting all of it with the mouse, then paste all that to some .txt file and save that to your computer. Then when you boot up the new switch, copy all the contents of that .txt file you saved, enter global config mode on the new switch, then paste all of those contents in the terminal emulator window. I THINK that's how you do it if I'm not mistaken.

    Update: I found it, it's just cisco!
    I purchased a similar switch but without the Gb ports from amazon just for practicing purpose when I pressed the mode button for 3 seconds I got all the LEDs solid green which suppose to mean it wasn't configured before however when I try to access the privilege exec mode it asking for password, is there a default password I can use? I checked the manual and it says that there should be none at initial config

    • @Kilzu1
      @Kilzu1 3 года назад

      Try cisco as password (most Cisco devices default password is cisco), if it doesn't work, then you need to reset the switch to factory defaults

      Only if your switch has no DHCP support and you want to set VLANs on different networks, other than that you just need to add VLAN networks to route table and route each network to right gateway.

      You need to find where your USB device is in device manager and use whatever port it is. Maybe try unplugging your usb device and check device manager and see if there is something missing. Then plug it back in and if whatever was missing reappears then you know that’s the device and you need to use that port.
