Where to Go Next
If the default configuration is satisfactory, the switch does not need further
configuration. You can use any of these management options to change the default
configuration:
•
Start the Cluster Management Suite, as described in the Catalyst 3550
Multilayer Switch Software Configuration Guide, and configure the switch as
a member of a cluster or as an individual switch. Refer to the Release Notes
for the Catalyst 3550 Multilayer Switch on Cisco.com for the most current
browser requirements.
•
Use the CLI to configure the switch from the console. Refer to the
Catalyst 3550 Multilayer Switch Software Configuration Guide and the
Catalyst 3550 Multilayer Switch Command Reference on Cisco.com for
information on using the CLI with a Catalyst 3550 switch.
•
Start an SNMP application such as the CiscoView application.
