This method of resetting I applied to three models of switches of this series (ES-3528M, ES-3526XA, ES-3552).

Connect the console cable (RS-232) to the switch. And configure the program through which you will connect with the following parameters COM-port: 9600 8N1;
Turn on the power on the switch.

The post presents the initial configuration of the level 2 network switch from the company Edge-Core. Model ES-3528M. On models 3510, 3528 the setting is identical. This switch is configured through the console port with the following parameters:

Speed: 9600
Data bits: 8
Stop bits: 1
Parity: none

There are two installation packages. MC and MC-Light. MC-Light is a lightweight file Manager.

For installation MC:

Go to ports:

cd /usr/ports/

Search:

make search name=mc

Result:

/usr/ports/misc/mc

At work faced very bad problem when after installation in Cisco Catalyst WS-C3750G-12S-S server as the gateway, all Cisco switches disappeared from the network. The problem is the spanning-tree Protocol. By default, it is enabled in all Cisco switches. To solve this problem, you need to disable it in the "enable" mode.

The setup took place at me on the HP ProLiant G4 DL360 server which has 2 Gigabit interfaces (by default bge0 and bge1), you can have both eth0 and eth1. But the point is not this, 2 interface we will need to raise the DNS server, and here we will do one. I chose bge0 ( it will work at the output and give out network addresses to subscribers, it is prescribed respectively a static network address (in my case 10.79.50.1), in rc.conf can be and through sysinstall. The DHCP server will run through chroot by default.

After moving the site to permanent hosting on the Internet, I saw that the information-which is taken from the database instead of the characters displayed: "????????????"

Problem solution. In the database connection file, assign the desired encoding:

Almost all models of this configuration are configured identically.

After entering through the console on the communicator we will see:

The Point-to-Point Protocol over Ethernet (PPPoE) is a network protocol for encapsulating PPP frames inside Ethernet frames. It appeared in 1999, in the context of the boom of DSL as the solution for tunneling packets over the DSL connection to the ISP's IP network, and from there to the rest of the Internet.

To set up, you need to edit the configuration file ppp.conf.
