Connecting and Configuring an EX Series Switch (CLI Procedure)

There are two ways to connect and configure an EX Series switch: one method is through
the console using the CLI and the other is using the J-Web interface. This topic describes
the CLI procedure.

NOTE: To run the

ezsetup

script, the switch must have the factory default

configuration as the active configuration. If you have configured anything on
the switch and want to run

ezsetup

, revert to the factory default configuration.

See Reverting to the Default Factory Configuration for the EX Series Switch.

Before you begin connecting and configuring an EX Series switch through the console
using the CLI:

Set the following parameter values in the console server or PC:

Baud Rate—9600

Flow Control—None

To connect and configure the switch from the console:
