Hello, I have a question about configuring a new VLAN. This is the situation:
I would like to configure and activate a new management VLAN in a cisco 2950 switch. The switch to be configured is only reachable via telnet. The switch has IP address 192.168.0.1/24. This address is assigned to the default VLAN 1. To configure this switch I choose to connect to a CDP neighbour switch with my console cable. This switch has IP address 192.168.0.2/24 assigned, also to VLAN 1. The two switches are situated in the same IP-network and can ping eachother. From the switch to which I have a serial connection I start a telnet session to the switch to be configured. I add the new management VLAN which will be VLAN 2 and set an IP address on VLAN2: 10.255.0.1 So far so good. I run a "show run" and see that both VLAN 1 and VLAN 2 have an IP address, 192.168.0.1 and 10.255.0.1 respectively. I also notice that the newly configured VLAN 2 is "shutdown". Running a "no shutdown" on the VLAN 2 interface doesn't help much. The interface stays shutdown. My guess is that VLAN 1 has to be shutdown before I can "no shutdown" VLAN 2. Shutting down VLAN 1 means I will lose my telnet connection to the switch and then I cannot get back in again via telnet. What to do in this case?
