Configuring The Ip Address; Connecting Using Snmp - D-Link DXS-3600 Series Hardware Installation Manual

Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#username NewUser password 12345
Switch(config)#username NewUser privilege 15
Switch(config)#line console
Switch(config-line)#login local
Switch(config-line)#end
Switch#
In the example above:
1. At the CLI command prompt, enter the enable command to enter the Privileged EXEC Mode. Press Enter.
2. Enter the configure terminal command to enter the Global Configuration Mode. Press Enter.
3. Enter the username NewUser password 12345 command. Press Enter. This will create a user account with
the username of NewUser and a password of 12345.
4. Enter the username NewUser privilege 15 command. Press Enter. This will configure this user account to
have Administrative (15) privileges.
5. Enter the line console command to enter the Line Configuration Mode. Press Enter.
6. Enter the login local command. Press Enter. This specifies that the local line requires login credentials.
7. Enter the end command to exit back to the Privileged EXEC Mode.
NOTE: Passwords are case sensitive. Usernames can be up to 19 characters in length.
Passwords can be up to 16 characters in length.

Configuring the IP Address

Each switch must be assigned its own IP Address, which is used for communication with an SNMP network manager
or other TCP/IP applications. The switch's console default IP address is 10.90.90.90/8, and the management port
default IP address is 192.168.0.1/24. You can change the switch's default IP address to fit into your networking
address range.
The IP address of the Switch must be configured before it can be managed, by the user, via the Web User Interface.
An example to change the IP address of the Switch to '10.50.50.50', using a subnet mask of '255.0.0.0':
Switch>enable
Switch#configure terminal
Switch(config)#interface vlan 1
Switch(config-if)#ip address 10.50.50.50 255.0.0.0
Switch(config-if)#end
Switch#
1. At the CLI command prompt, enter the enable command to enter the Privileged EXEC Mode. Press Enter.
2. Enter the configure terminal command to enter the Global Configuration Mode. Press Enter.
3. Enter the interface vlan 1 command to enter the Interface Configuration Mode. Press Enter.
4. Enter the ip address 10.50.50.50 255.0.0.0 command to change the IP address and mask. Press Enter.
5. Enter the end command to exit back to the Privileged EXEC Mode.
The Switch can now be configured and accessed through Telnet or the Web-based management.
The Switch's IP address can also automatically be obtained by using the BOOTP or DHCP protocol.

Connecting using SNMP

The switch can be managed with an SNMP-compatible console program. The Simple Network Management Protocol
(SNMP) operates on the Application Layer of the OSI model and is designed specifically for managing and monitoring
