Default Configuration

A version of FTOS is pre-loaded onto the chassis, however the system is not

configured when you power up for the first time (except for the default

hostname, which is Force10). You must configure the system using the CLI.

Use the switchport command in INTERFACE mode to enable Layer 2 data

transmissions through an individual interface. The user cannot configure

switching or Layer 2 protocols such as the spanning tree protocol on an interface

unless the interface has been set to Layer 2 mode.

Step Task

Enable the interface.

Place the interface in

Layer 2 (switching)

mode.

To view the interfaces in Layer 2 mode, use the show interfaces switchport

command in the EXEC mode.

The host name appears in the prompt. The default host name is Force10.

•

Host names must start with a letter and end with a letter or digit.
