    Task 1: Complete the Init ial Switch Configuration Process

    In this task, you will complete the initial switch configuration process. Each pod will be

    separated into two teams. Team 1 will apply configurations to the MDS 1 switch and Team 2

    will apply configurations to the MDS 2 switch. Both teams can work in parallel unless stated

    otherwise.

    Activi ty Procedure

    Perform these steps on the MDS switch assigned to your team:

    Step 1 Access the console of your assigned switch (MDS-1 or MDS-2) by clicking on the

    Consolebutton on the main Labgear screen. Press the Enterkey once to see a

    switch login prompt, then log in.

    Switch login: admin

    Password: 1234qwer

    Step 2 Clear the current startup configuration:

    #write erase

    Warning: This command will erase the startup-configuration.

    Do you wish to proceed anyway? [y/n] [N]

    Typeyto proceed.

    Step 3 Reboot the switch:

    # reload

    This command will reboot the system. (y/n)?Typeyto proceed.

    Step 4 After the switch reboots (in about 2 minutes), it will automatically launch the setup

    process. This is the state you would find the switch in when you power up an MDS

    for the first time.

    Answer the questions according to the following example, replacing your pod

    number where appropriate:

    ---- System Admin Account Setup ----

    Enter the password for "admin": 1234qwer

    Confirm the password for "admin":1234qwer

    Task 1: Complete the Init ial Switch Configuration Process

    In this task, you will complete the initial switch configuration process to reset your switch to an

    unconfigured state. Team 1 will apply configurations to the MDS-1 switch and Team 2 will

    apply configurations to the MDS-2 switch. Both teams should work in parallel unless stated

    otherwise.

    Activi ty Procedure

    Both teams should complete these steps on their assigned MDS switches:

    Step 1 Access the console of your assigned switch (MDS-1 or MDS-2) by clicking on the

    console button on the main Labgear screen. Press the Enterkey once to see a switch

    login prompt, then log in.

    Switch login: admin

    Password: 1234qwer

    Step 2 Clear the current startup configuration:

    #write erase

    Warning: This command will erase the startup-configuration.

    Do you wish to proceed anyway? [y/n] [N]

    Typeyto proceed.

    Step 3 Reboot the switch:

    # reload

    This command will reboot the system. (y/n)?Typeyto proceed.

    Step 4 After the switch reboots (in about 2 minutes), it will automatically launch the setup

    process. This is the state you would find the switch in when you power up an MDS

    for the first time.

    Answer the questions according to the following example, replacing your pod

    number where appropriate:

    ---- System Admin Account Setup ----

    Enter the password for "admin": 1234qwer

    Confirm the password for "admin":1234qwer

    --- Basic System Configuration Dialog ---

    This setup utility will guide you through the basic configuration of

    the system. Setup configures only enough connectivity for management

    of the system.
