Run the Layer 2 Video Surveillance install script

Use the following procedure to run the Layer 2 Video Surveillance install script.

Before you begin

The switch must be in the factory default state. When you start the install script, the switch displays a prompt to remind you to do this.

Procedure

Enter Global Configuration mode:

enable

configure terminal
Run the install script:

run vms layer-2 switch <5–99> [syntax]

The script uses the value that you assign to the switch number (between 5 and 99) to seed unique values in the configuration script.

Examples

The following example shows the complete output of the install script without the syntax parameter. As you can see, there is no indication that the script encountered any errors.

Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

Switch:1(config)# run vms layer-2 switch 6 

Do you want to execute the run vms layer-2 script? Device needs to be in factory default state. (y/n) ? y

**Previous configurations stored in pre_vms_layer2_install.cfg**
**New VMS configurations stored in new primary config file vms-layer2-switch-6.cfg**
*** VMS Layer-2 script execution complete ***
Switch:1(config)#boot config choice primary config-file /intflash/vms-layer2-switch-6.cfg

The following example displays the output of the script using the syntax parameter. This example is only a small sample of the output, but it shows how the script reports warnings and errors it encounters.

Switch:1>enable
Switch:1#config terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.  End with CNTL/Z.

Switch:1(config)# run vms layer-2 switch 6 syntax

Variable Definitions

The following table defines parameters for the run vms layer-2 switch command.


Variable	Value
`<5-99>`	Specifies a switch value, which is then used as a common element to configure switch parameters such as nickname, VLAN ID, SPB and IP parameters. This switch value is also used in the name of the saved configuration file. For example, 6 is the switch value in `vms-layer2-switch-6.cfg`
syntax	Species that the switch displays all the commands run by the script on the console. Use this parameter to see errors that the script encounters. Note: The script does not stop if it encounters errors. To verify that the script runs without errors, use the syntax parameter to display errors or conflicting configurations on the switch.
