Cisco Switch IP Change - 20030302

cisco commands for changing the ip address and gateway of your switch as
it is configed....

Get console on switch and get in enable mode.

then type....

config t                                    (enters configuration mode)
no ip default-gateway 128.205.10.254        (removes old gateway)
ip default-gateway 128.205.xx.254           (new gateway where x is subnet)
interface VLAN1                             (puts under vlan1 config)
no ip address 128.205.10.64 255.255.255.0   (removes old address)
ip address 128.205.xx.yy 255.255.255.0      (inserts new address where
                                             x=subnet, y=host)

Notes, you need to remove the gatway as you can have more than one, having
more than one might work to your advantage but it is cleaner to remove it.
You might be able to type the new ip address with removing the old one as I
think you can only have one under the interface..but my way will work.


should be all set...let me know if you have any problems.
