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 device manager, which is in the switch memory, to manage
individual and standalone switches. The device manager is an easy-to-use
web interface that offers quick configuration and monitoring. You can access
the device manager from anywhere in your network through a web browser.
For more information, see the device manager online help.
• Start the Network Assistant application, which is described in the Getting
Started with Cisco Network Assistant guide on Cisco.com. Through this GUI,
you can configure and monitor a switch cluster or an individual switch.
• Use the CLI from the console to configure the switch as a member of a cluster
or as an individual switch. See the Catalyst 2950 and Catalyst 2955 Switch
Software Configuration Guide and the Catalyst 2950 and Catalyst 2955
Switch Command Reference on Cisco.com for information on using the CLI
with a Catalyst 2955 switch.
• Start an SNMP application such as the CiscoView application.
