Without any experience with this Switch, I can only guess at this possibility:
Did you program the VLAN config from a console port?? If so, Do you have anything plugged into ANY of the FastEthernet ports?? If not, try plugging a workstation, laptop, or whatever type of node that suits your fancy, and then go back to your terminal program to see if you get anything. Better yet, if you're programming IP addresses on a VLAN specifically, perhaps you should first connect the switch to a router and configure trunking to support Sub-interface VLAN routing. I bet that this is actually what your issue is. If you want to assign an IP address to the switch to ping it or telnet to it, try assigning the IP address to one of the Ethernet Interfaces. that is... Switch_11#config terminal Switch_11#(config)int fa0/1 Switch_11#(config-if)ip address 172.28.32.107 255.255.255.128 Switch_11#(config-if)end Switch_11#ping 172.28.32.107 and see if you get: !!!!! If all else fails, look up Basic Configuration of Cisco 2950 Switch on www.cisco.com , and I'll bet you'll find out the answers to your questions. Good luck.

After sometime, I set the ip and going to ping it, but no respond. Check the ip interface, the line protocol is down: Vlan1 is up, line protocol is down Internet address is 172.28.32.107/25 Broadcast address is 255.255.255.255 Address determined by setup command MTU is 1500 bytes ..... I checked the IOS: IOS (tm) C2950 Software (C2950-I6Q4L2-M), Version 12.1(6)EA2a, RELEASE SOFTWARE (fc1) The configuration is SIMPLE as below, can anyone give me some idea what's wrong and how can I fix it?
