5.2.2.1 Performing the Initial Switch Configuration for the Cisco Nexus
93108-1G Ethernet Switch
During the initial configuration, you reset the switch and use the Basic System
Configuration Dialog to configure the switch.
Before configuring the switch, note the following:
•
The Cisco Ethernet switch should not be connected until the running configuration
has been verified, and any necessary changes have been made by the network
administrator.
•
The Cisco Ethernet switch should not be connected to the customer network until
the IP addresses on all components have been configured in Oracle Exadata
Rack. This is to prevent any duplicate IP address conflicts which are possible due
to the default addresses set in the components when shipped.
Configuration should be done with the network administrator.
1.
Connect from the Cisco switch serial console to a laptop or similar device using
the available RJ45 cable.
2.
Ensure the terminal session is recorded on the laptop by logging the output.
The output can be used as a reference that the switch has been configured
correctly. The default serial port speed is 9600 baud, 8 bits, no parity, 1 stop bit,
and no handshake.
3.
Power on the switch.
4.
Login as the
admin
user.
