If not, simply type switchport mode trunk.
If ISL is supported, you have to issue the switchport trunk encapsulation dot1q on the trunk port configuration. You might already have a template ready for access port configuration, but in case you don’t, here are some commands you should use: Step 5: Configure trunk portsĮnter the command sh int g0/1 capabilities and check the trunking protocol supported. To easily reset the domain back to zero, change the config mode to transparent: Step 4: Configure access ports So, before you add your switch to the network, you’re going to want to set its revision number to zero. This means that the switches will update their VLAN configuration based on the VTP information being sent by the switch with the highest revision number. Your switch will only process data from a neighboring switch coming from the same domain and if the revision number of the neighboring switch is higher than its own. When you set a VTP domain name, the revision number is set to zero-after which each change to the VLAN database increases the revision number by one. The VTP revision numbers determine which updates are to be used in a VTP domain. Hit the show vtp status command to reveal your Virtual Trunking Protocol (VTP) revision numbers. Next, make sure your switch has a set hostname and domain name: Step 3: Check VTP revision number Follow any preset naming assignment your company is using and then assign an IP address on the management VLAN. Unlike with that punny name you gave your home Wi-Fi network, when setting up the hostname for your switch you should probably stick to a more professional and standard naming convention.

Run Putty and select the 9600 speed serial connection.
Setting up cisco 2950 switch install#
To do this, you will need to download and install Putty (or a similar, fun-named software tool). Next, use a rollover cable to console into the switch from your computer. If everything checks out, power on the switch and verify that all the indicator lights are in working order. Or, if you are using a spare, check the device hardware and its connected cables for any damages. Check the model number of your shiny new switch.
