Chapter 3 Configurations for the Layer 3 Switch Router
Configuring the Management Port
To configure Telnet for remote management access, perform the following procedure, beginning in user
EXEC mode:
Note Any Fast Ethernet interface 1–48 and any Gigabit Ethernet interface 49–50 on the
Catalyst 2948G-L3 switch router, or any Gigabit Ethernet interface 1–8 on the Catalyst 4908G-L3
switch router, can be configured as a management port.
Once you have completed configuring remote mangement on the management port, you can use Telnet
to remotely assign and verify configurations.
You can display the configuration file when you are in privileged EXEC (enable) mode.
• To see the current operating configuration, enter the following command at the enable prompt:
