I just bought a Cisco 4500 series Switch I want to know how to configure it. I need help with both Cat OS and IOS commands. I also intend to use this switch as a layer 3 device to do inter-vlan routing. I really want to know about the commands as to do the setup and configuration.

Cisco 4500 Switch Configuration

A switch is a device that filters and forwards packets of data between LAN segments. Switches operate at the data link layer or the network layer of the Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) Reference Model and therefore support any packet protocol. LANs that use switches to join segments are called switched LANs or, in the case of Ethernet networks, switched Ethernet LANs. A hub is a connection point for devices in a network. Hubs are commonly used to connect segments of a LAN. A hub contains multiple ports; when a packet arrives at one port, it is copied to the other ports so that all segments of the LAN can see all packets.

Discussions will include those of best practices in platforms, configurations, performance, security and accounting.
