encrypts passwords, such as user passwords
records log message priority in log messages
turns on jumbo frame support for all ports
turns on the telnet server so that you can telnet to the switch
enables the switch to look up domain names (but for domain name lookups to work, you
have to configure a DNS server)
turns off L3 multicast packet switching in the switch's hardware. This prevents L3 multicast
from flooding the switch's CPU in its default state as an L2 switch
sets the maximum number of ECMP routes to 8
turns on RSTP on all ports. Note that the ports are not set to be edge ports
sets all the switch ports to access mode. This means they are untagged ports, suitable for
connecting to hosts
creates VLAN 1 and adds all the switch ports to it
allows logins on the serial console port
allows logins on VTY sessions (for telnet etc)
has switching enabled, so layer 2 traffic is forwarded appropriately without further
configuration
allocates all the routing table memory space to IPv4 and IPv6 routes
has ports set to autonegotiate their speed and duplex mode
has copper ports set to auto MDI/MDI-X mode
