Initial Setup Notes for 5800 Series Switches

SSH into the switch with the default user:pass = "admin:admin"

First Change the password, note that we are using local authentication mode, not "aaa" mode. What is aaa mode? That's for authenticating against a radius/TACACS+ server.

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# username  <username> privilege 4 password <password>
Switch(config)# line vty 0 7
Switch(config-line)# login local
Switch(config-line)# exit
Switch(config)# exit

Set the time

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# clock set datetime 11:30:00 10 26 2013
Switch(config)# clock set summer-time dst date 3 13 2022 02:00:00 11 6 2022 02:00:00 120
Switch(config)# exit

Configure Management IP

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# management ip address 10.10.129.X/24
Switch(config)# exit
Switch# show management ip address

Create VLANs

Switch# configure terminal
Switch (config)# vlan database
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 10 name Server
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 100 name Office
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 116 name Labs
Switch (config-vlan)# vlan 119 name Firewalled
Switch (config-vlan)# exit
Switch (config)# end
Switch#

Setup Management VLAN Interface

Setup management on a vlan interface

switch# configure terminal
switch(config)# interface vlan 10
switch(config)# ip address 10.10.129.X/24
switch(config)# Ctrl+z
Switch# show management ip address

Set the banner to show the name of the switch

Switch# configure terminalThe // at the end of the line indicates the start of a comment:
Switch# banner login # You are logged into RXSY #
Switch# exit
Switch# show running //validates that it worked

In the web interface

Configuration
- Ethernet Status (Change eth-0-50 to trunk)
- VLAN (Set VLANs for 10,100,116,119 as appropriate - default is 116; Make sure to change eth-0-50 default 10 allow 10,100,116,119)
Maintenance
- System Configuration (file out page and save)
- User Management (Add scot and vadmin; change password for admin)
- Reboot/Save (save the configuration)
Network
- IP Routing
  - IPv4 Static Route Information
    - New:
    - Destination = 0.0.0.0
    - Mask = 0.0.0.0
    - Nexthop = 10.10.129.1
    - Distance = 1

Common Commands and Quirks

The // at the end of the line indicates the start of a comment:

Show Port Status

Switch# show interface status //show status of all the ports
Switch# show interface eth-0-49 //shows the status of eth-0-49

Show VLAN information for port

switch# show interface switchport interface eth-0-1

Backup and Restore the switch Configuration

To backup the configuration, ssh into the switch and perform the following:

Switch# copy flash:/startup-config.conf mgmt-if scp://10.10.129.X/startup-config.conf

To download a configuration file:

Switch# copy mgmt-if scp://10.10.10.163/startup-config.conf flash:/startup-config.conf

LACP configuration on S5850 10 GIG Switch

Switch# configure terminal
Switch(config)# port-channel 1 load-balance-mode dynamic
Switch(config)# interface eth-0-47
Switch(config-if)# no shutdown
Switch(config-if)# channel-group 1 mode active //active is the key word to get you LACP!
Switch(config-if)# edit
Switch(config)# [repeat previous 4 for each port]
Switch(config)# end
Switch# show channel-group summary

Trunk Quirk

IF you have something acting as a tagged port, then you cannot assign it as the default VLAN.

Scenario: I have the firewall using tagged VLANs on the procurve: 13,14,100,116 All tagged - no default untagged VLAN assigned.

On the new switch, you cannot pick one of these to be the default VLAN, even though it was in the list of permitted (tagged) VLANs, it would not work. Choosing 1 (an unused VLAN) to be the default VLAN allowed it to start working again. Picky! Picky!

IF you have something acting as a tagged port, then you cannot assign it as the default VLAN. 

Scenario: I have the firewall using tagged VLANs on the procurve: 13,14,100,116 All tagged - no default untagged VLAN assigned.

On the new switch, you __cannot__ pick one of these to be the default VLAN, even though it was in the list of permitted (tagged) VLANs, it would not work. Choosing 1 (an unused VLAN) to be the default VLAN allowed it to start working again. Picky! Picky!
