Hello there, everyone!

This post features the basic commands for configuring Huawei switches. Please have a look below.

If a switch is configured, the following commands may help you. The following is a comment after //.

[Quidway] display current-configuration     // Display the current configuration.
[Quidway] display interfaces                         // Displays interface information.
[Quidway] display vlan all                             // Displays vlan information.
[Quidway] display version                             // Displays the version information.

[Quidway] super password                           // Changing the Password of a Privileged User
[Quidway] sysname                                       // Switch Naming
[Quidway] interface ethernet 0/0/1            // Enter the interface view.
[Quidway] interface vlanif x                        // Enter the interface view.
[Quidway-Vlan-interfacex]ip address 10.65.1.1 255.255.0.0  // Configure the IP address of the VLAN.

[Quidway] ip route-static 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 10.65.1.2                  // Static route = gateway

[Quidway] user-interface vty 0 4                // Access the virtual terminal
[S3026-ui-vty0-4]authentication-mode password                 // Setting the password mode
[S3026-ui-vty0-4]set authentication-mode password simple 222        // Setting a password
[S3026-ui-vty0-4]user privilege level 3      // User level

[Quidway] interface ethernet 0/0/1           // Enter the port mode.
[Quidway] int e0/0/1                                  // Enter the port mode.
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]duplex {half|full|auto}                      // Configuring the Working Status of a Port
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]speed {10|100|auto}                         // Configuring the Working Rate of a Port
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]flow-control                                      // Configuring Port Flow Control
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]port link-type {trunk|access|hybrid}  // To set the working mode of a port
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]port access vlan 3  // The current port is added to the VLAN.
[Quidway-Ethernet0/2]port trunk allow-pass vlan {ID|All}   // Set the VLAN allowed by the trunk.
[Quidway-Ethernet0/3]port trunk pvid vlan 3                       // Setting the PVID of a Trunk Port
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]undo shutdown                                 // Activating a Port
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]shutdown             // Disable the port.
[Quidway-Ethernet0/1]quit                       // Return

These would be the basic commands for configuring Huawei switches.
