Hello if you're watching this and you're about to comment why I copied the config through USB and why I didn't enter commands on CLI, the point and goal of this video is to show how we configure switches in real world, corporate setting. I am showing the realistic way on how we get it done at work so if you're expecting to see actual commands being typed/copied on CLI, then this is not the video for that. I didn't want people to think that we do CLI for every switch we deploy coz that's not realistic. I hope this is all clear now. Thank you!
CLI is handy for complex network manipulation. Your method to get the swith up and reachable via IP for additional configs is acceptable. If a network is setup from scratch it would make sense to setup all devices according to architectural design information, before shipping for deployment.
Yeah, well... this is what we actually do in a real world scenario. Network Infrastructure Engineer here with 25 years experience (I'm 52) so yes, this is how things are done in the corporate world. Forget about wasting time on CLI, that's good for learning but extremely ineficcient for deployment, time consuming and prone to errors. The mere fact that some male younglings are harrassing the lady only shows massive amounts of insecurity, immaturity and obviously a great deal of jealousy because they're most probably ranting from home while she's employed and doing the job. Anyway, nice and refreshing video, far away from the home-lab-cli boring stuff.
Hello sir! thank you so much for stopping by and wow you've been an Engineer for a long time too! That's amazing! There's finally someone who gets it. I made videos like these to show more of the real world experience and this is how we're actually doing it. You absolutely nailed it. We do this for efficiency and accuracy as well especially deploying a lot of machines. Also I work in IT and don't specialize in Networking so I'm always doing so many things too. I still read the config file and learn from it. Thank you so much for the kind words and feedback. I also noticed that if a guy posts a video like this, they don't get comments like I do. It's sad that this industry is still tough on women. Thank you and hopefully I can post more videos like these as I really enjoy making content. More power to you as well Sir!
Agree, I'm younger than you (38), but 22 years experience, and usually I always never use a CLI mode, mainly because I use Dell switches and first thing I do is enable web mode (if available). I had a issue with one, he didn't recognize the SFP, so after a long waste of time the support send me an update. I don't understand why people choose to suffer.
@@pluscode1985 Nice Sir! I haven't worked with HP switches yet but that's good to know. I guess they're probably not working in the field and don't know how it really is
I’m a young male networking student and I have to fully agree it’s honestly so sad to see how females are treated in this field and this video comment section by some are proof. I’m not gonna lump them all together but it’s def. A large problem and it’s VERY annoying. Notice how these tutorial type networking videos are largely male. This is why. We need to be accepting and respectful to ALL people in this field. Anyways, I full agree. And funnily enough, throughout most of my classes, with professors as old (no offense lolll) and with as much experience as you I’ve always been taught to learn CLI as core backup knowledge incase something goes wrong and I need to know how to work it. But never as the only or implied or superior way because of the exact reasons you stated lol. In fact one of the professors even showed us first hand how it is and setup a real world deployment scenario that was on a time crunch. And even though we were still learning students, the amount of students that either made errors or didn’t even come close to finishing in time was almost 100% lol. These comments downing her are nothing more than insecure males who most likely have no real experience past being able to take their sweet time with CLI for a home network setup, all so they can pat their egos on the back and make comments like this on UA-cam.

@@jasonx165 oh nice!! goodluck on your networking studies! Yeah I bet that if a guy posts a video like this, they won't make comments like they did with mine.

I agree, age, gender, race etc has nothing to do with skills so we should be accepting, respectful and open to ALL people. Oh that's funny!

Respect for sharing this as someone who is getting into network engineering in 2024. It's good to give people an inside look to what is possible after learning all the study material and passing the CCNA.
been doing networking (switches configuration/etc...) since 1998... when you said, "Hopefully I can do this..." I was cheering at the video saying, yes you can. Great job.
Oh wow that's a long time sir!! How did networking change since then? Thank you!!! I am now comfortable configuring switches at work and I realize that I find racking it more difficult and also moving from the old one to the new one
Technology has changed, but concepts remain the same. Started out with 10Base2 thin / bnc connectors.. etc... As long as folks learn the basics, the process generally stays the same.

Awesome video! I've been doing this for a long time now as a contractor working for many different companies. This video is exactly what I do with almost every new or repurposed device.
Thanks!! oh wow so are you working on data center sites? I don't do this all the time but I really like doing hands-on work like this and configuring stuff
I worked mostly in the company's network rooms or a data closet. Some were very large and some were just a closet for storage where they ran all their network cables to.@@EastCharmer
you're very welcome! Yeah I was also nervous doing my first switch and handling an actual device can look intimidating. Will keep posting videos just like this!
What a great video! I really enjoyed it! I used to do this at my last job and it was my favourite part! I always loved logging into switches manually and write stuff in the command line. Thank you so much for making this :)
Thank you and glad you enjoyed watching the video!! I really enjoyed making the video too. Oh yeah I love doing networking work too coz it's more hands-on. You're very welcome and will make more videos like this.
love it when someone makes videos like these not where people record the stuff on Screen and shows pictures of the devices , showing everything live makes so much sense thank you for sharing this with us. would love to see the complete config of a cisco switch not just copying stuff from usb..
Thank you! Yeah I am trying to show how we do it in practice that's why I show how we realistically just copy the config files from USB. I am showing real world scenario here in this video. I didn't want people to think that we enter the commands manually everytime we configure a switch coz that's not best practice. But yeah I will make a separate video about the complete config. This video is more of showing how it's done in a corporate setting realistically
before i even watch the video ,i would like to thank you for the help of showing us the direct work envirement of configuring either switches or routers,i'm a person who continuously worried about those things ,so this video for me has both learning and motivation aspects . thanks ❤❤
@@EastCharmer I liked your energy that you puts on videos and i joined your subs ,btw one small advice try searching for a mic called "Lavalier Microphone" they have a noise cancelation and will helps with all of the switches/routers noise,i saw you were screaming to be heard😂❤
Hello, thank you for your video. Since i am working with aruba only, this was a nice little introduction to setup a cisco switch. Kind regards from germany.
Oh wow congrats! How do you like it? I hope you learn a lot from that job. I'm glad my videos are helpful! I have a lot of projects at work so more videos to come ☺️☺️
I identify with this video in particular as I am starting a new job as a Desktop Support Analyst and it will likely involve setting up new builds and configuring equipment. So this is is most valuable. Thanks !
Oh wow congrats on your new role! Yeah there's a lot of hands-on involved in some IT roles and I would like to show more of that videos in the channel like what cables to use etc. I'm glad that you find this video helpful!
Lovely video!! Im a networking & sec student in uni and ive been practicing stuff like this in packet tracer so i was wondering how it works in real life, thank you so much keep it up!!
@@EastCharmer thank you so much!! I needed the goodluck lol, had a rough semester with discrete and c sharp lowered my gpa alot but otherwise with all the networking courses and ccna blabla doing great, and yes please would def love to watch more videos like this, im searching for an internship and it is a pain in the ass! And im graduating in a year so def lost at the moment, you got any tips that could help me?
Hi thank you soo much dear.. really i was searching this kind of video since long... please continue the real life network work .. i am also learning networking... thank you once again
Thanks a lot!! I really like networking even if girls like me keeps getting harassed by boys in the comment section about using a config file instead of CLI.
I have been looking for these realistic configurations to understand whats happening behind a server and its connectivity... Kindly do more relevant videos. Thank you
Nice that they made the console USB, I haven't configured a router in like 15 years, still have an OG console cable and a USB to serial adapter in my tech kit.
Thanks for the educative video. I work in IT but networking has been my weakest point but studying every other time to improve knowledge, using packet tracer too. The problem is I have worked with 3 different companies and everything was always already set up, so most times theres almost no way to actually learn on the job. keep up the great work
You're welcome!! Oh I see. Yes it's tough to practice your skills if everything was already set up. I just got really lucky because we don't do this all the time, either. We typically refresh switches every 5 or so years. That's why I wanted to show how it is done.
@@EastCharmer oh waow good thing you are lucky then. You said you dont really do networking stuff at your work because you guys have network engineers, so whats your role since you since do networking partially?? I guess I just have to hope somethings breaks and I can use it as a real life learning curve lol
@@BB-tu2bq My current role is called Broadcast IT and I'm an all around IT that does almost everything from user support to IT projects, some networking, systems and more. oh lol yeah that's unfortunately how it is in networking :( once it's all set, there's really not a lot of work to be done after but switching VLANs and port security
@@EastCharmer oh cool, never heard of that role before but cool you are able to work on projects, I think it really helps with ones development also.In my workplace, we have no vlan configured. I am thinking of getting CCNA this year but a part of me is ready but most part is a bit scared lol.
You're very welcome! Nice! Goodluck on your job search! Yeah I think it's really important to share the real-world application of IT concepts and not just teach theory. Coz when I went to school, I learned all of the concepts but not any application or real-world scenario and it was tougher getting a job if all you know is the textbook.
Thank you!! ah wow ako nga I didn't take CCNA eh so hnd ako certified. Nacomplete ko lang ang training but got busy to take the exam. What do you do now?
@@EastCharmer I work as an Implementation Consultant po with Genesys Telecomms.. if familiar po kayo sa mga IVR systems ganon po pero cloud based. Ang related siguro sa network ung pag build ng SIP trunks pero actual config ng networking devices wala po eh... I'm liking your content po. Keep up the good work 🙌
@@ADJ161996 Oh I see. Nice din yang work mo. Ah ueah SIP trunks kasi phone system kayo. Hindi din ako focused sa networking kasi all around IT ako. Thank you! Glad you liked the content. Hopefully makapag upload pa ng more content hehe
That's cool that you are allowed to change hostname and set the IP address. I only get to upgrade the IOS version. The client company network team does the rest of the config remotely.
Yeah and we also add VLANs to the config too. ah I see, yeah it really depends on the company. I'm kinda lucky that we have projects like this so I jump at it whenever there's a chance
This is very close to how I deploy switches in the real world. I'm Network Admin/Engineer since 2011 and doing networking and CCNA academy since 2008. I typically use a template on Notepad and just change out the hostname and IP information as needed but your method is just as effective and it's nice seeing the USB port used for something other than firmware upgrades :). Nice Video and good luck in your career.
Oh wow you're an engineer! Ah I see. I use a template too on notepad and just load it to the USB. I think that's simpler too. Thank you so much and I hope I can also be an engineer like you someday!
You have such confidence and deliver the presentation with great clarity. I hope to be a hard worker like you one day in the IT field. I hope I get my first help desk job this year or in 2025.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it! I've really been practicing my communication skills since English isn't my first language. Are you studying right now? I hope so too! just keep learning and practicing your technical and soft skills as well
hhmm I haven't been in the industry for that long to know but I hope that's not a bad thing lol That's also why I liked Networking more than other areas in tech, because it really doesn't change much compared to other areas.
the real networking starts once you deal with telco and dc grade equipment (nexus and asr families) but this is a good start for wanting to get into networking.
Thanks for the video❤ Trust me, I'm 26 and this is my first-ever comment on UA-cam Please come up with these type of real-world configuration & troubleshooting videos which will help us a lot in gaining hands-on knowledge.
I'm only stating this because no one ever explains why we don't just push the firmware upgrade to the switch using TFTP: The mini USB console cable has a transmit speed of 12mbps. It takes FOREVER to upload it. Plus, most enterprise PCs have TFTP disabled by default and if you don't have admin priv you won't be able to enable it to get by your local firewall. You just taught me something new! I never thought about keeping a config template file on the flash drive. I just always copy and paste the config in the CLI. You should make a video on the costs of Cisco switches and their components. It's always shocking to see how much these things can cost. I had to purchase a few c9300 UXMs and a couple of c9318's a few months back and my mouth dropped at the inital costs. LOL
On another note, tftp has issues with larger files and you will randomly hit issues with corrupt downloads ... Honestly the easiest way is have a file server setup securely the switches can hit in a lab network, toss an ip on the management interface and you can push configs down that way. We have an automated version of this where the user tosses in the switch profile into the tool at work, ties it to a chassis sn and it can configure it automatically via a terminal server.
Oh yeah. I think the flash drive is just the easiest and simplest during the initialization when building from scratch coz atleast you don't have to setup your network for the tftp etc. It will just load the files and it's done. Oh yeah that would be a good video idea too. Yeah the 9300s series are so pricey and they have more features too so they're really for big enterprises lol
i agree but it depends on completely diff scenario... here sensitive companies like banks and data centers do not allow any short of TFTP, hence a good old usb method would be the way to upgrade a firmware. so diff scenario, diff methods
Hello if you're watching this and you're about to comment why I copied the config through USB and why I didn't enter commands on CLI, the point and goal of this video is to show how we configure switches in real world, corporate setting. I am showing the realistic way on how we get it done at work so if you're expecting to see actual commands being typed/copied on CLI, then this is not the video for that.

I hope this is all clear now. Thank you!
You explained it well from beginning..Again keep great content like this coming..
@@tonny_n Thanks! There's just people still commenting why I copied a config file. Will keep posting more videos like this!
CLI is handy for complex network manipulation. Your method to get the swith up and reachable via IP for additional configs is acceptable. If a network is setup from scratch it would make sense to setup all devices according to architectural design information, before shipping for deployment.
Nope totally get why. Work smart, not hard! 👍😁

Thanks a lot!! I really like networking even if girls like me keeps getting harassed by boys in the comment section about using a config file instead of CLI.
I have been looking for these realistic configurations to understand whats happening behind a server and its connectivity... Kindly do more relevant videos. Thank you
I'm glad my video provides the insight to real world. I'll definitely keep making videos like this
Nice that they made the console USB, I haven't configured a router in like 15 years, still have an OG console cable and a USB to serial adapter in my tech kit.
Totally agree! It's easier now and plug and play too
Yup this is how its done in corporate - Great Vid 🙂
Thank you!
Nice video, I really enjoyed it. I'm a student who's trying to get there CCNA so I find this interesting. Thank you for this video
Glad you enjoyed it! Goodluck on getting your CCNA!
Great video, loving it, been awhile since I came over
Glad you enjoyed it
great video
Thank you!
good content video,
Classic!
Thanks for the educative video. I work in IT but networking has been my weakest point but studying every other time to improve knowledge, using packet tracer too. The problem is I have worked with 3 different companies and everything was always already set up, so most times theres almost no way to actually learn on the job. keep up the great work
You're welcome!! Oh I see. Yes it's tough to practice your skills if everything was already set up. I just got really lucky because we don't do this all the time, either. We typically refresh switches every 5 or so years. That's why I wanted to show how it is done.
@@EastCharmer oh waow good thing you are lucky then. You said you dont really do networking stuff at your work because you guys have network engineers, so whats your role since you since do networking partially?? I guess I just have to hope somethings breaks and I can use it as a real life learning curve lol
@@BB-tu2bq My current role is called Broadcast IT and I'm an all around IT that does almost everything from user support to IT projects, some networking, systems and more. oh lol yeah that's unfortunately how it is in networking :( once it's all set, there's really not a lot of work to be done after but switching VLANs and port security
@@EastCharmer oh cool, never heard of that role before but cool you are able to work on projects, I think it really helps with ones development also.In my workplace, we have no vlan configured. I am thinking of getting CCNA this year but a part of me is ready but most part is a bit scared lol.
Awesome content!! Great job Charmer!!
Thank you! More videos like this to come!
@@EastCharmer glad to hear that
So much interested, thank you for this video
You're very welcome!!
you won one more subscriber 🔥🔥🔥 fron Angola- África
Thank you for the sub!! Hello there in Angola!
Great work ! And great video !
Thank you so much!! Appreciate it!!
Your content on It is great
Thank yo so much!! I'm glad you liked the content!
Excellent. ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤. This is what was required. The maseeha of networking world is here now.
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this vidéo it helped me alot, i'm freshly graduated and i had no idea cause we didn't have real switches in our univ tysm
You're very welcome! Congrats on graduating! I'm really happy to share what the networking devices looks like in the workplace
New subscriber. Thanks for the info. It's interesting to see the real world application.
Thank you for the sub! Hope I can upload more real world videos like this.
Wow I'm also looking for an It Job, This video clears my mind how things work in practical life.
Thank you For making this video.
You're very welcome! Nice! Goodluck on your job search! Yeah I think it's really important to share the real-world application of IT concepts and not just teach theory. Coz when I went to school, I learned all of the concepts but not any application or real-world scenario and it was tougher getting a job if all you know is the textbook.
Great great!!! i enjoyed it. Thank you for your good exploitation!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
This is probably one of the most indepths actual hands on I’ve seen in this subject! Thank you so much for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! you're very welcome!
so educative to the young generation
Thank you so much!
I'm a Support Technician and this is a really great video.
Wow that's great! In what field? Thank you I really appreciate it!!
@@EastCharmer The IT field.
This is exactly how we IT do it in a corporate level. Thank you for sharing. A great real world example!
Yay! You're welcome!! Yes! I wanted to share the real world practice so more people would have an idea on how it is done
Awesome content. CCNA passer here pero di ko nagamit sa job since di align sa networks. Thank you for sharing!
Thank you!! ah wow ako nga I didn't take CCNA eh so hnd ako certified. Nacomplete ko lang ang training but got busy to take the exam. What do you do now?
@@EastCharmer I work as an Implementation Consultant po with Genesys Telecomms.. if familiar po kayo sa mga IVR systems ganon po pero cloud based. Ang related siguro sa network ung pag build ng SIP trunks pero actual config ng networking devices wala po eh... I'm liking your content po. Keep up the good work 🙌
@@ADJ161996 Oh I see. Nice din yang work mo. Ah ueah SIP trunks kasi phone system kayo. Hindi din ako focused sa networking kasi all around IT ako. Thank you! Glad you liked the content. Hopefully makapag upload pa ng more content hehe
Excelente video! sigue así!
Thank you!
Thanks for the upload!
Our pleasure!!!
Awesome videos!
Thank you very much!!
Awesome thx! Good content ☺️
You're very welcome!!
Raw n useful
Thank you! This is as raw as it could be
You've just got a new subscriber! 😁
Thank you for the sub!!
¡¡Genial, gracias por el video!!
de nada!!
That's cool that you are allowed to change hostname and set the IP address. I only get to upgrade the IOS version. The client company network team does the rest of the config remotely.
Yeah and we also add VLANs to the config too. ah I see, yeah it really depends on the company. I'm kinda lucky that we have projects like this so I jump at it whenever there's a chance
Great video I'm new and this helped me. :)
You're very welcome and glad to hear that it's helpful! Goodluck!
This is very close to how I deploy switches in the real world. I'm Network Admin/Engineer since 2011 and doing networking and CCNA academy since 2008. I typically use a template on Notepad and just change out the hostname and IP information as needed but your method is just as effective and it's nice seeing the USB port used for something other than firmware upgrades :). Nice Video and good luck in your career.
Oh wow you're an engineer! Ah I see. I use a template too on notepad and just load it to the USB. I think that's simpler too. Thank you so much and I hope I can also be an engineer like you someday!
You have such confidence and deliver the presentation with great clarity. I hope to be a hard worker like you one day in the IT field. I hope I get my first help desk job this year or in 2025.
Thank you so much!! I really appreciate it! I've really been practicing my communication skills since English isn't my first language. Are you studying right now? I hope so too! just keep learning and practicing your technical and soft skills as well
Why she has that PlayStation 1 Resident Evil running sound effect playing? That was awesome! Great video.. I've learned alot. ^_^
Thanks!!!
That was nice it kinda reminds me of my first day doing ccna ❤
Thank you!
@@EastCharmer You're very welcome.I can wait to see how you progress
@@alexandruvasi5877 thank you!! I'm studying now and hopefully get certs this year
Hi Thanks for this video I am also a IT tech guy. 😊
hello! you're welcome!! nice!!! another IT guy!!
This is crazy, I used to stage routers and switches just like this in like 2012 and it seems like NOTHING is different from like 12 years ago XD
hhmm I haven't been in the industry for that long to know but I hope that's not a bad thing lol That's also why I liked Networking more than other areas in tech, because it really doesn't change much compared to other areas.
the real networking starts once you deal with telco and dc grade equipment (nexus and asr families) but this is a good start for wanting to get into networking.
Yes unfortunately I don't specialize in Networking so I don't get to touch that. But yeah it was great being able to experience this Switch project
Why isn't there more vids like this. THANK YOU!
Aaww thanks for such a great comment!! Will continue to post more videos like this!!
Thanks for the video❤
Trust me, I'm 26 and this is my first-ever comment on UA-cam
Please come up with these type of real-world configuration & troubleshooting videos which will help us a lot in gaining hands-on knowledge.
Thank you so much for such a nice feedback! I'll do my best to come up with more troubleshooting videos
i really needed this thank you

Hi dear friend what is Cisco switch isp
Thank you show us how it done in real world please all of it I subscribed your channel so I can see more videos from you
You're very welcome! I have videos on racking the switch and switch project too
This is helpful
Glad it helps!
Hey im from the Uk, fantastic video and very informative you have reignited my spark for networking 👍
Hello there!! Thank you!! Oh yeah you should do networking again if you're really passionate about it. Networking is my favorite area in tech
Thank you so much 🎉
You’re welcome 😊
Bless your heart
Thank you!
Thank you so much.
You're very welcome!
I'm only stating this because no one ever explains why we don't just push the firmware upgrade to the switch using TFTP: The mini USB console cable has a transmit speed of 12mbps. It takes FOREVER to upload it. Plus, most enterprise PCs have TFTP disabled by default and if you don't have admin priv you won't be able to enable it to get by your local firewall.
You just taught me something new! I never thought about keeping a config template file on the flash drive. I just always copy and paste the config in the CLI.
You should make a video on the costs of Cisco switches and their components. It's always shocking to see how much these things can cost. I had to purchase a few c9300 UXMs and a couple of c9318's a few months back and my mouth dropped at the inital costs. LOL
On another note, tftp has issues with larger files and you will randomly hit issues with corrupt downloads ... Honestly the easiest way is have a file server setup securely the switches can hit in a lab network, toss an ip on the management interface and you can push configs down that way. We have an automated version of this where the user tosses in the switch profile into the tool at work, ties it to a chassis sn and it can configure it automatically via a terminal server.
Oh yeah. I think the flash drive is just the easiest and simplest during the initialization when building from scratch coz atleast you don't have to setup your network for the tftp etc. It will just load the files and it's done. Oh yeah that would be a good video idea too. Yeah the 9300s series are so pricey and they have more features too so they're really for big enterprises lol
"Cisco" and "price-friendly" are not 2 words that can exist in the same sentence, unfortunately.
i agree but it depends on completely diff scenario... here sensitive companies like banks and data centers do not allow any short of TFTP, hence a good old usb method would be the way to upgrade a firmware. so diff scenario, diff methods
nice
Thanks!
