4948 Running Configuration

Hello !

If anyone over here can post a running configuration sample of Cisco 4948 Switch.

I need to know the interface numbering, specifically of the SFP ports.

Thanks

Hi Zeeshan,

Hopefully this is the information that you are looking for.  Essentially there are 52 physical interfaces on the 4948, however the last 8 interfaces are still numbered the same gigabit 1/45 - 1/48 and are simply configured as either RJ45 or SFP.  Please take a look at the following guide, you will see that you simply have to specify the media-type under the interface:-

"The interface configuration mode command media-type sfp|rj45 can be used to configure the media  type for these ports in the switch software and determines whether the  SFP or the RJ-45 connector is used. The default is SFP."  Taken from this link:-

Hi Zeeshan,

The interface number is as follows, these are simply configured as host ports with speed and duplex fixed or left to auto.  Whereas Gigabit1/45-1/48 would typically be your SFP Trunk uplinks to your distribution or core layer using single interface or bundled as port-channel:-

!

vlan 2
name Vlan2
!
vlan 3
name Vlan3

!

vlan 4

name Vlan4
!
vlan 5
name Vlan5

!

vlan 6
  name Vlan6

!

vlan 7
  name Vlan7

!

vlan 8
  name Vlan8

!

vlan 9
  name Vlan9

!

vlan 10
  name Vlan10

!

interface GigabitEthernet1/1

switchport access vlan
speed 1000

interface GigabitEthernet1/44
switchport access vlan

Allan,

Thanks. I got what I was looking for. One more thing about interface numbering.

Is it Interface Gigabitethernet 0/1 or Gigabitethernet 1/1 for ports on 4948.

Actually I need to develop Configuration templates for this switch but does not physically have the switch right now. If you have this switch then please post a sample running configuration

Thanks

It worked for me, too. Thanks.

Are the SFP's numbered this way on the 4948e?  I could not locate a picture with a high enough resolution, to see the numbering on the ports.
