Those Dog on Cisco Commands

Changing switch hostname:


Switch(config)# hostname SW1

Configuring passwords:

SW1(config)# enable secret cisco ! MD5 hash


SW1(config)# enable password notcisco ! Clear text

Securing console port:

SW1(config)# line con 0


SW1(config-line)# password cisco
SW1(config-line)# login

Securing terminal lines:

SW1(config)# line vty 0 4


SW1(config-line)# password cisco
SW1(config-line)# login

Encrypting passwords:
SW1(config)# service password-encryption

Configuring banners:
SW1(config)# banner motd $
2

UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS IS PROHIBITED

$

Giving the switch an IP address:

SW1(config)# interface vlan 1


SW1(config-if)# ip address 172.16.1.11 255.255.255.0 ! or DHCP
SW1(config-if)# no shutdown

Setting the default gateway:


SW1(config)# ip default-gateway 172.16.1.1

Saving configuration:

SW1# copy running-config startup-config


Destination filename [startup-config]? ! Press enter to confirm file
name.
Building configuration…
[OK]

! Short for write memory.


SW1# wr
Building configuration…
[OK]

Working environment:

name lookup, history, exec-timeout and logging behavior…, also valid for line con 0.

SW1(config)# no ip domain-lookup
3

SW1(config)# line vty 0 4


SW1(config-line)# history size 15
SW1(config-line)# exec-timeout 10 30
SW1(config-line)# logging synchronous

Configuring switch to use SSH:

 Configure DNS domain name:


SW1(config)# ip domain-name example.com

 Configure a username and password:


SW1(config)# username admin password cisco

 Generate encryption keys:

The size of the key modulus in the range of 360 to 2048

SW1(config)# crypto key generate rsa


How many bits in the modulus [512]: 1024

 Define SSH version to use:


SW1(config)# ip ssh version 2

 Enable vty lines to use SSH:


SW1(config)# line vty 0 4
SW1(config-line)# login local
! You can set vty lines to use only telnet or only ssh or both as in the
example.
SW1(config-line)# transport input telnet ssh

Aliases:

Used to create shortcuts for long commands.

SW1(config)# alias exec c configure terminal


SW1(config)# alias exec s show ip interface brief
4

SW1(config)# alias exec sr show running-config

Description, speed and duplex:

SW1(config)# interface fastEthernet 0/1


SW1(config-if)# description LINK TO INTERNET ROUTER
SW1(config-if)# speed 100 ! Options: 10, 100, auto
! The range keyword used to set a group of interfaces at once.
SW1(config)# interface range fastEthernet 0/5 – 10
SW1(config-if-range)# duplex full (options: half, full, auto)

Verify Basic Configuration:

 Shows information about the switch and its interfaces, RAM, NVRAM, flash, IOS, etc.
SW1# show version

 Shows the current configuration file stored in DRAM.


SW1# show running-config

 Shows the configuration file stored in NVRAM which is used at first boot process.
SW1# show startup-config

 Lists the commands currently held in the history buffer.


SW1# show history

 Shows an overview of all interfaces, their physical status, protocol status and ip address if assigned.
SW1# show ip interface brief

 Shows detailed information about the specified interface, its status, protocol, duplex, speed, encapsulation, last 5 min traffic.
SW1# show interface vlan 1

 Shows the description of all interfaces


SW1# show interfaces description

 Shows the status of all interfaces like connected or not, speed, duplex, trunk or access vlan.
SW1# show interfaces status
5

 Shows the public encryption key used for SSH.


SW1# show crypto key mypubkey rsa

 Shows information about the leased IP address (when an interface is configured to get IP address via a dhcp server)
SW1# show dhcp lease
