Forgive my complete ignorance, but having just purchased a 2950 switch, and looking thro the documents, i cannot find the CVSM software anywhere. I purchased this switch for the reliability and manageability, which having looked i would prefer not to do through the IOS system which is probably too much for my low grade ability. I got confused when i tried to connect this switch into my network, and though i tested it standalone, connecting into another switch led to total not working and confusion on my part. Thanks for any help.

Check what's the files you have in the flash. You can do a flash: to see the files. If you have a "html" file you are good. If not download a file with a .tar extension from CCO at

The following pages on CCO should help

CVMS is not a separate application, it's buil-in to the device code. The .tar file for the switch have this, the .bin is just the plain regular code without CVSM.

so give your switch an IP address and an enable password, then enable HTTP (IOS commands)
now u can open your browser, type the IP address, u will be propted to give username & password. then a html page (text only) will be displayed. look for CVSM in the top. u will be directed to a graphical interface. some times u will need to download a plugin from cisco.com.
