Task 4: Configuring Switch 2
Use the following procedure to dump the configuration script (text dump) out of Switch 1:
n
Using the Browser Based Interface (BBI)
(a) You need a serial cable that is a DB-9 Male to DB-9 Female, straight-through (not a
null modem) cable.
(b) Connect the cable from a COM port on your computer to the console port on switch 1.
(c) Open HyperTerminal (or the terminal program of your choice) and connect to the
switch using the following parameters: Baud: 9600, Data Bits: 8, Parity: None, Stop
Bits:1, Flow Control: None.
n
Using HyperTerminal
(a) Only the Baud Rate and Flow Control options need to be changed from the default set-
tings.
(b) Once you connect to the switch, start logging your session in HyperTerminal (trans-
fer/capture text).
(c) Save the file as “Customer Name” Switch 1, then type the following command in the
switch command line interface:
/cfg/dump
A script will be dumped out.
(d) Stop logging your session (transfer/capture text/stop).
Modify the script as follows:
1. Open the text file that you just created and change the following:
n
Delete anything above “Script Start.”
n
Delete the two lines directly below “Script Start.” These two lines identify the switch from
which the dump was taken and the date and time. If these two lines are left in, it will con-
fuse Web switch 2 when you dump in the file.
n
Change the last octet in all the IP interfaces from .10 to .11. Find this in line:
/cfg/ip/if 1/addr 10.10.10.10 . Simply delete the “0” and put in a “1.” Be
sure to do this for all the IP interfaces, otherwise, you will have duplicate IP addresses in
the network.
2. Change the virtual router priorities.
Virtual routers 1–4 need to have their priority set to 100 from 101, and virtual routers 5-7 need
to have their priorities set to 101 from 100. You can find this in line
/cfg/vrrp/vr
1/vrid 1/if 1/prio 101 .
