management network from the above interface summary: vlan1
Configure the interface by entering the switch IP address and subnet mask and pressing Return. The IP
Step 8
address and subnet masks shown below are examples.
Configuring interface vlan1:
Configure IP on this interface? [yes]: yes
IP address for this interface: 10.4.120.106
Subnet mask for this interface [255.0.0.0]: 255.0.0.0
Enter Y to configure the switch as the cluster command switch. Enter N to configure it as a member
Step 9
switch or as a standalone switch.
If you enter N, the switch appears as a candidate switch in the Network Assistant GUI. You can configure
the switch as a command switch later through the CLI, the device manager, or the Network Assistant
application. To configure it later, enter no.
Would you like to enable as a cluster command switch? [yes/no]: no
You have now completed the initial configuration of the switch and the switch displays its initial
configuration. This is an example of output that appears:
