| Hello,
I will begin to tell you, i am a newbie for switches.
I have received a Cisco 2950 with ios version 12.1.(6)EA2c and a console
cable.
How can I configure the switch now? What must be installed on my computer?
It's all to try something, on the cisco site there only information for
professionals....
I hope to hear from you!

All you need is hyperterminal (windows) or maybe minicom (linux).
Set your port to 9600-N-8-1 and your at the config prompt.
From there it depends on how you want to configure it.
First things first, to make sure your ports are on and working:
1.log into the switch
2.type: enable
This gets you into privileged mode
3.type: configure terminal
Now you're configuring
4.type: interface FastEthernet 0/1
5.then: no shutdown
This will activate your port if it is not already active
For configurations other than shutting down or turning on ports, we'll
need to know more about what you want to do.
Check out cisco's site. Search for "2900 configuration guide"
Good Luck!!

| Use hyper terminal and set your connection directly to the COM port.
set it to 9600-8-1
now turn the swich on and you will be prompted to configure the switch
interactively.
the only interface that you need to assign an IP is Vlan0
after that you can telnet to the switch.
