DGS-3630 Layer 3 Stackable Managed Switch CLI Reference Guide VLAN Interface Configuration Mode VLAN interface configuration mode is one of the available interface modes and is used to configure the parameters of a VLAN interface. To access VLAN interface configuration mode, use the following command in global configuration mode: Switch(config)# interface vlan 1 Switch(config-if)# Creating a User Account By default, there is no user account created on this switch. For security reasons, it is highly recommended to create user accounts to manage and control access to this switch's interface. This section will assist a user with creating a user account by means of the Command Line Interface. Observe the following example. Switch# enable Switch# configure terminal Switch(config)# username admin password admin Switch(config)# username admin privilege 15 Switch(config)# line console Switch(config-line)# login local Switch(config-line)# In the above example we had to navigate and access the username command. • Starting in the User EXEC Mode, we enter the enable command to access the Privileged EXEC Mode. • After accessing the Privileged EXEC Mode, we entered the configure terminal command to access the Global Configuration Mode. The username command can be used in the Global Configuration Mode. • The username admin password admin command creates a user account with the username of admin and a password of admin. • The username admin privilege 15 command assigns a privilege level value of 15 to the user account admin. • The line console command allows us to access the console interface's Line Configuration Mode. • The login local command tells the Switch that users need to enter locally configured login credentials to access the console interface. Save the running configuration to the start-up configuration. This means to save the changes made so that when the Switch is rebooted, the configuration will not be lost. The following example shows how to save the running configuration to the start-up configuration. Switch# copy running-config startup-config Destination filename startup-config? [y/n]: y Saving all configurations to NV-RAM.......... Done. Switch# After the Switch has rebooted, or after the users log out and back in, the newly created username and password must be entered to access the CLI interface again, as seen below. 5
