**Note:**: if you get an error stating `factory set-default` is not a valid command, this means your switch has a very old bootloader. To clear the existing passworded config in this case, do the following:
```
#only follow this section if factory set-default did not work

>**Note:** If during the `ip dhcp-client disable` command you get an invalid input error, your switch probably came with the layer 2 only firmware loaded. In that case, just run `ip address 192.168.1.55/24` (replace the IP) - this will give it a temporary IP, so it can load the layer 3 firmware. Then skip down to the `Load The New Images` section below, and use those commands to copy in the latest layer 3 firmware and reload. Once the switch comes back up, **don't forget** to come back and follow this **Initial Configuration** section all the way through now that you have the proper firmware!

### Default Route & DNS
To give the switch a default route and a DNS server so it can reach external hostnames and IP's (to ping external servers or to update time via NTP etc), do the following. replace the IP with the IP of your gateway/router/etc. Assuming you are still at the ```configure terminal``` level:
