# Lab 02 - Switch Configuration > ***Objectives:*** > - Ensure PCs and switches are connected properly > - Cable types > - PC-SW: straight cables > - SW-SW: ~~gay~~ crossover cables > - Connections > - Connect PCs to ports 1-3 and 11-13 of switches > - Connect switches together with ports 23 and 24 > - Configure switches properly > - Rename switches to `SW1`-`SW4` > - Assign ports 1-10 to VLAN 10 > - Assign ports 11-20 to VLAN 20 > - Set spanning-tree `portfast` on ports 1-20 > - Set ports 22-24 as trunks for VLAN 10 and 20 > - Set spanning-tree `portfast trunk` for ports 22-24 > - Set `SW2` to be spanning-tree root primary for VLAN 10 and root secondary for VLAN 20 > - Set `SW3` to be spanning-tree root secondary for VLAN 20 > - Configure static IP addresses for at least 3 computers per switch ## Basic Configuration Run this configuration on each Switch replacing `{x}` with the switch number: ```sh enable configure terminal hostname SW{x} interface range fastEthernet 0/1-10 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 10 interface range fastEthernet 0/11-20 switchport mode access switchport access vlan 20 interface range fastEthernet 0/1-20 spanning-tree portfast interface range fastEthernet 0/22-24 switchport mode trunk switchport trunk allowed vlan 10,20 spanning-tree portfast trunk exit exit disable exit ``` ## Configuration of `SW2` ```sh enable configure terminal spanning-tree vlan 10 root primary spanning-tree vlan 20 root secondary exit exit disable exit ``` ## Configuration of `SW3` ```sh enable configure terminal spanning-tree vlan 10 root secondary spanning-tree vlan 20 root primary exit exit disable exit ```
