Cisco Switch basic Configuration Step by Step for Beginners - Youtube

Hello and welcome
to the new video.

Today, I will guide you
about the basic configuration

of Cisco.

I have Cisco Switch Model
Catalyst 3560 series 48 port

PoE switch, and it has
four fiber SFPP ports.

First, plug the power
cable to the switch.

It will turn on [INAUDIBLE].

Connect it through
the console cable

on the USB side to your laptop.

Let's move to the screen.

After connecting through
the console cable,

you just have to
go to your browser

and download PuTTY from it.

Just download PuTTY.

It will appear.

Go to PuTTY site.

Download PuTTY.

I'm going to download this one.

Download will complete shortly.

Folder, open it.

This is the PuTTY interface.

At the startup, we
are going to connect

to this switch to [INAUDIBLE].

First of all, confirm which
serial port we are connected to.

Go to your Manage.

Device manager.

And here it will show which
COM port you are connected to.

In my case, it is
connected to COM4.

If you are having trouble, if
your COM port is not showing,

you need to install the
driver for your serial ports,

it will resolve your issue.

In my case, I have
connected to COM4.

After selecting COM4
serial port, click Open.

Click Enter.

It will ask you for your
initial configuration.

Enter no.

Enter into the Enable
mode, en or enable.

en is a shortcut.

You can use multiple shortcuts.

By the time you
can learn, you'll

be hands on experience with it.

Just enter the
configuration by typing.

You can complete the sentence
[INAUDIBLE] like this.

In configuration
terminal, first I'm

going to name this
switch hostname.

Whatever you want
to name your switch.

I'm going to name
it test switch.

Click enter.

You can see the name
changed to test-switch.

Second, we are going
to enable password.

Enable password.

Test123.

Whatever the password
you want to give it.

Enable password.

Next, we are going to set
up extra remote access.

Set up line vty, 0 to 15, or
you can divide it to 0 to 4.

I'm going to continue
with 0 to 15.

Line vty is a virtual
terminal for remote access.

Give it password, whatever
password you want to give it.

Click Enter.

Login.

Exit.

Next, I'm going to give
it the console password,

console access password
line console 0.

Password, whatever password
you want, give it test123.

Login.

Click Enter and exit.

Exit.

Next, I'm going to
give it the switch IP.

int the interface
of VLAN, VLAN1.

Give it an IP address.

The IP address, give
that IP address according

to your network 192.168.77.4,
space, subnet of your network.

Click enter.

The IP address is saved.

Next, I'm going to set
default port to gateway.

192.168.77.1 according
to your network.

Next, set no shut to your VLAN1.

I'm out of the VLAN1.

Interface entering
into interface VLAN1.

Now set.

Exit.

That way you can see the
status of your interface.

There is a fast ethernet for
48 ports and for D ports.

I am going to
configuration terminal.

Selecting the range of the
interface range fa 0/1 to 48

ports and set it to no shut.

Exit.

Now I am going to set 48
number port to the trunk.

Interface, first, I'll
select the interface.

Interface [INAUDIBLE].

0-48, switch port.

Node trunk.

It is giving an error.

An interface whose trunk
encapsulation is auto.

So what we have to do is
switchport trunk encapsulation

dot1q.

Switchport node trunk.

It will allow to
trunk set trunk.

Next, allow all VLANs
to [INAUDIBLE] port.

Trunk allow VLAN
all click Enter.

Exit.

48 port is set up for
trunk uplink port.

You can set NTP server
for your organization.

NTP server.

Server 192.168.2.100.

If there is no network
you can leave it.

The last step.

We are going to do is
exit and w1w will build.

Save all your
configuration we have done.

And this is the
basic configuration

you can use for the simple
deployment of switch.

Next, some extra
related configuration.

I'm going to tell if
you want to create VLAN.

And we will go to the
configuration terminal.

Enter the name of the VLAN like
I'm going to name it VLAN 21.

The VLAN is created.

Exit, exit.

Now, you going to see the VLANs.

Show VLAN.

You can see here
we have 21 VLAN.

If I want to set some
ports to the VLAN 21,

here you can see all
ports assigned to VLAN 1.

I am going to set first
24 ports to VLAN 21.

First, move to
configuration terminal.

Select the range that you
want to assign to the VLAN 21.

[INAUDIBLE] million.

OK 0/1 to 24.

Switchport mode.

Access VLAN 21.

Switchport access VLAN on.

Good.

You can name your
other port, just

like I'm going to set the
name as uplink my trunk port.

Interface [INAUDIBLE] 0/48.

Set description up link.

Click Enter, and show interface.

Check this.

You can see 48 number
port description UP-LINK.

And the first 24 ports
are assigned to VLAN 21.

We need to set shut no
shut for the VLAN 21.

21 no shut.

[INAUDIBLE] to save
the configuration.

You can show Version command.

It will show you the model
of your CISCO switch.

All the information
about your CISCO switch.

You can see your
configuration of your switch.

Back morning show configuration.

By typing, space it will expand.

As you can see, it is
showing the version.

It is showing the
switchport access VLAN 21.

Your configuration you have
done your switch, the IP

address, the default gateway,
and the password you have set.
