Changing The Initial Configuration - Cisco Nexus 5500 Series Configuration Manual

Initial Configuration
Example:
Configure default zone policy (permit/deny) [deny]: permit
Permits traffic flow to all members of the default zone.
Note If you are executing the setup script after entering a write erase command, you explicitly must change the
default zone policy to permit for VSAN 1 after finishing the script using the following command:
Configure read-only SNMP community string (yes/no) [n]: zone default-zone permit vsan 1
Step 17
Enter yes (no is the default) to enable a full zone set distribution.
Example:
Enable full zoneset distribution (yes/no) [n]: yes
Overrides the switch-wide default for the full zone set distribution feature.
Step 18 You see the new configuration. Review and edit the configuration that you have just entered. Enter no (no is the default)
if you are satisfied with the configuration.
Example:
The following configuration will be applied:
username admin password <user-password> role network-admin
snmp-server community snmp_community ro
switchname switch
feature telnet
ssh key dsa 768 force
feature ssh
system default switchport shutdown san
system default switchport trunk mode on
system default zone default-zone permit
system default zone distribute full
Would you like to edit the configuration? (yes/no) [n]: no
Step 19 Enter yes (yes is default) to use and save this configuration:
Example:
Use this configuration and save it? (yes/no) [y]: yes
If you do not save the configuration at this point, none of your changes are updated the next time the switch
Caution
is rebooted. Type yes to save the new configuration. This operation ensures that the kickstart and system
images are also automatically configured.

Changing the Initial Configuration

To make changes to the initial configuration at a later time, enter the setup command in EXEC mode:
switch# setup
---- Basic System Configuration Dialog ----
This setup utility will guide you through the basic configuration of
the system. Setup configures only enough connectivity for management
of the system.
*Note: setup is mainly used for configuring the system initially,
when no configuration is present. So setup always assumes system
defaults and not the current system configuration values.
Press Enter at anytime to skip a dialog. Use ctrl-c at anytime
