Assign IP Information to the Switch
The first time that you access the switch, it
runs a setup program that prompts you for
IP and other configuration information.
This information is needed so that the
switch can communicate with local routers
and the Internet. It is also required if you
plan to use Cisco Visual Switch Manager
(CVSM) to configure and manage the
switch.
Note: If the switch will be a cluster
member, it is not necessary to assign IP
information or a password if the switch will
be managed through the IP address of the
command switch. If you are configuring the
switch as a a standalone switch or as a
command switch (Enterprise Edition only),
