This PPT covers the basics of switches ie network switches. most specifically I have targeted on CISCO switch. through this PPT one will get to know What basically a network switch is ? How a Switch Works ? Which switch model to prefer? How to configure a switch using your pc? In addition to that I have mentioned Different modes in a switch and basic Commands of switch which could be considered as "Basic Start-up Commands" This PPT was used by me to deliver in bound training for my office colleagues.

4. DEFINITION OF A SWITCH
• A specialized networking device connected to two or
more devices in a network.
• Uses Packet Switching to Receive, Process, and
Forward Data to the destination device.

5. HOW IT WORKS?
Switches functions in an Internet protocol based
network operate at the network layer.
• -Node Connection.
• -Creates a series of Instant network.
• -Node Differentiation.

6. HARDWARE : INSIDE A SWITCH

7. LED LIGHT INDICATORS

8. SWITCH MEMORIES
• ROM (Read-Only Memory):POST (Power-On Self
Test).
• FLASH:-IOS, Startup-configuration.
• NVRAM (Non-Volatile RAM):-Startup configuration
file .
• RAM (Random-Access Memory):-Running-
configuration.

9. CISCO SWITCHES IN MARKET

SWITCH?

13. MODES IN A SWITCH
• EXEC Mode.
• Privilege Mode
• Global configuration Mode.
• Interface Configuration Mode.
• Line Configuration Mode.
• Switch Configuration Mode.

14. BASIC STARTUP COMMANDS
• Hostname of Switch.
• Switch(config)# hostname MySwitch
• MySwitch(config)# hostname MySwitch
• Enable Password.
• Switch(config)# enable password MYPASSWORD
• Switch(config)# enable secret MYPASSWORD2
• Interface Configuration.
• Switch(config)# interface fastethernet 0/2
• Switch(config-if)#
• Status Switch.
• Switch# show interfaces
• Configuration Management.
• Switch# copy running-config startup-config
• Switch# copy run start
• Switch# copy start run
• Switch# show run
• Switch# show start

15. SIMULATION
• Configuring the host name of the Switch.
• Enabling the password.
• Configuring an interface.
• Status of a Switch.
• Switch port security.
