HOW TO CONFIGURE NEW CISCO SWITCH (REAL-WORLD GUIDE)

In this video, I’ll show you how to configure a new Cisco switch in a real-world scenario where someone is physically located at the remote site. And as a network engineer, you are responsible for ensuring that you can SSH into the switch and fully configure it.
