Step 10 (Optional) Enter your system location in the System Location field. This
identifies the physical location of the switch.
Step 11 (Optional) Click Enable in the Telnet Access field if you are going to use Telnet
to manage the switch by using the CLI. If you enable Telnet access, you must enter
a Telnet password:
a. Enter a password in the Telnet Password field. The Telnet password can be
from 1 to 25 alphanumeric characters, is case sensitive, allows embedded
spaces, but does not allow embedded spaces at the beginning or end.
b. Enter the Telnet password again in the Confirm Telnet Password field.
Step 12 (Optional) Click Enable to configure Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP). Enable SNMP only if you plan to manage switches by using Cisco
Works or another SNMP-based network-management system.
If you enable SNMP, you must enter a community string in the SNMP Read
Community field, the SNMP Write Community field, or both. SNMP
community strings authenticate access to MIB objects. Embedded spaces are not
allowed in SNMP community strings. If you set the SNMP read community, users
can access MIB objects, but cannot modify them. If you set the SNMP write
community, users can access and modify MIB objects.
Step 13 Click Save to save your settings to the switch, or click Cancel to clear your
settings.
The switch exits Express Setup mode.
Your switch is now configured with the new IP address. You can install the switch
in your production network.
