I'm leveraging 2x Ubiquiti Unifi 10Gb switches for the network portion. Game changer. Can stop looking offscreen at my notes. Just picked up a padcaster parrot teleprompter. Today we are going to take a basic look at a few of these tools. Link to today's video in bio. How do I get an internet connection in my lab? I've been asked this question many times as I've made my videos.
Check out my latest video, link in bio. Got some parts in for my dell servers and another seagate 16tb exos for my synology. This array in my desktop has been around quite a long time. Friendly reminder that raid is not a backup. Working on documenting how I get internet to my lab network for one of my next videos.
I've had a lot of people asking from my how I get internet to my lab. For me, it's a lot more than just plugging my hosts into my existing network. I wanted something mostly isolated. There may be better ways I am sure there are to accomplish this, but this is how I do it. I have a separate WAN connection just for my lab. View on Instagram.
See the instruction in this article. For example, switch has 24 FastEthernet ports and 2 Gigabit Ethernet ports. For users connection only Fast Ethernet will be used. It would be great to add description strings for each interface. Then, ports will be shown next to each Vlan. By previous commands we shared one physical switch to 4 logical ones Vlan 1, Vlan 10, Vlan 20 and Vlan Connections between hosts will be able only if their ports on the switch belongs to the same Vlan.
You need a router connected to the switch using a trunk port in order to that all networks could communicate with each other. All necessary information about configuration can be found in this article. The difference of trunk interface is that the transmission of each packet of traffic is marked by Vlan number. This allows the device to forward packets correctly. After making all of the steps, connect two workstations to ports belonging to the same Vlan , eg with the number , set ip addresses You can access the CLI on an unconfigured switch by placing the switch in Express Setup mode and then connecting an Ethernet port of the switch to the Ethernet port of your PC or workstation.
To put the switch into Express Setup mode, follow the steps described in the Catalyst Switch Getting Started Guide for powering on the switch and using Express Setup.
After the switch is in Express Setup mode, open a Telnet session to the switch by using the IP address Enter the setup user EXEC command. See these sections in this chapter to configure the switch by using the CLI:.
After you have entered the configuration information for the switch, save it to flash memory by using the write memory privileged EXEC command. You lose the Telnet connection after entering the write memory command.
For more information about using the CLI, refer to the command reference for this release. You can access the CLI on a configured or unconfigured switch by connecting the console port of the switch to the serial port on your PC or workstation and accessing the switch through a Telnet session.
To access the switch through the console port, follow these steps:. See the switch getting started guide for a list of what ships with your switch. Note You need to provide the Category 5 or higher straight-through cables to connect the switch ports to other Ethernet devices. For configuration information for this feature, see the switch software configuration guide or the switch command reference. You can use the console port to perform the initial configuration. Follow these steps to connect the PC or terminal to the switch:.
Before you power on the switch, start the terminal emulation session so that you can see the output display from the power-on self-test POST. The terminal-emulation software—frequently a PC application such as Hyperterminal or Procomm Plus—makes communication between the switch and your PC or terminal possible.
Step 1 Start the terminal-emulation program and open a session if you are using a PC or terminal. Step 2 Start a terminal-emulation session. Step 3 Configure the baud rate and character format of the PC or terminal to match these console port default characteristics:.
Step 1 Connect one end of the supplied AC power cord to the power connector on a switch rear panel. See Figure C Step 2 Connect the other end of the power cable to a grounded AC outlet. As the switch powers on, it begins the power-on self test POST , a series of tests that runs automatically to ensure that the switch functions properly.
POST lasts approximately 1 minute. The other LEDs turn off and then reflect the switch operating status. POST failures are usually fatal. If you started the terminal emulation program before you powered on your switch, the PC or terminal displays the bootloader sequence. You need to press Enter to display the setup program prompt. To set up the switch, you need to complete the setup program, which runs automatically after the switch is powered up.
You must assign an IP address and other configuration information necessary for the switch to communicate with the local routers and the Internet. This information is also required if you plan to use the Network Assistant to configure and manage the switch.
