Initial Setup Notes for 5800 Series Switches

SSH into the switch with the default user:pass = "admin:admin"

First Change the password, note that we are using local authentication mode, not "aaa" mode. What is aaa mode? That's for authenticating against a radius/TACACS+ server.

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# username  <username> privilege 4 password <password>
Switch(config)# line vty 0 7
Switch(config-line)# login local
Switch(config-line)# exit
Switch(config)# exit

Set the time

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# clock set datetime 11:30:00 10 26 2013
Switch(config)# clock set summer-time dst date 3 13 2022 02:00:00 11 6 2022 02:00:00 120
Switch(config)# exit

Configure Management IP

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# management ip address 10.10.129.X/24
Switch(config)# exit
Switch# show management ip address

Create VLANs

Switch# configure terminal
Switch (config)# vlan database
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 10 name Server
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 100 name Office
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 116 name Labs
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 119 name Firewalled
Switch (config-vlan)# exit
Switch (config)# end
Switch#

Setup Management VLAN Interface

Setup management on a vlan interface

switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan 10
switch(config)# ip address 10.10.129.X/24
switch(config)# Ctrl+z
Switch# show management ip address

Set the banner to show the name of the switch

Switch# configure terminalThe // at the end of the line indicates the start of a comment:
Switch# banner login # You are logged into RXSY #
Switch# exit
Switch# show running //validates that it worked

In the web interface

Configuration
- Ethernet Status (Change eth-0-50 to trunk)
- VLAN (Set VLANs for 10,100,116,119 as appropriate - default is 116; Make sure to change eth-0-50 default 10 allow 10,100,116,119)
Maintenance
- System Configuration (file out page and save)
- User Management (Add scot and vadmin; change password for admin)
- Reboot/Save (save the configuration)
Network
- IP Routing
  - IPv4 Static Route Information
    - New:
    - Destination = 0.0.0.0
    - Mask = 0.0.0.0
    - Nexthop = 10.10.129.1
    - Distance = 1

Common Commands

The // at the end of the line indicates the start of a comment:

Show Port Status

Switch# show interface status //show status of all the ports
Switch# show interface eth-0-49 //shows the status of eth-0-49

Show VLAN information for port

switch# show interface switchport interface eth-0-1

Backup and Restore the switch Configuration

To backup the configuration, ssh into the switch and perform the following:

Switch# copy flash:/startup-config.conf mgmt-if scp://10.10.129.X/startup-config.conf

To download a configuration file:

Switch# copy mgmt-if scp://10.10.10.163/startup-config.conf flash:/startup-config.conf

LACP configuration on S5850 10 GIG Switch

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# port-channel 1 load-balance-mode dynamic
Switch(config)# interface eth-0-47
Switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Switch(config-if)# channel-group 1 mode active //active is the key word to get you LACP!
Switch(config-if)# edit
Switch(config)# [repeat previous 4 for each port]
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show channel-group summary
