CCNA 1 Router Configuration

1) Delete an existing router configuration:


Router1# erase startup-config
Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm] {Depress Enter key to confirm}
[OK] Erase of nvram: complete
Router1# reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]: no
Proceed with reload? [confirm] {Hit enter to confirm}
2) Name the router:
Router> { User Exec Mode ; Privilege Level 1 }
Router> enable { Access to Privilege EXEC Mode ; may require a password, if set ; default is none }
Router# { Privilege Exec Mode ; Privilege Level 15 }
Router# configure terminal { Used to access Global Configuration Mode }
Router(config)# hostname RTA { Changes the default name of the Router to a word = RTA }
RTA(config)#no ip domain lookup {Stops DNS look up interruptions while configuring the router}
3) Configure user EXEC mode line passwords (passwords are created in clear text) :
RTA(config)# line console 0 { Initial router configuration; out of band management }
RTA(config-line)# password cisco { Sets the case sensitive password to cisco }
RTA(config-line)# login { Enables the line password checking }
RTA(config-line)# logging synchronous { Prevents console message interruptions }
RTA(config)# line vty 0 4 { Remote access for router configuration; in band management }
RTA(config-line)# password class { Sets the case sensitive password to class }
RTA(config-line)# login { Enables the line password checking }
RTA(config)# line aux 0 { Remote access for router configuration ; via a modem }
RTA(config-line)# password CISCO { Sets the case sensitive password to CISCO }
RTA(config-line)# login { Enables the line password checking }
RTA(config-line)# exit { Goes back to Global Configuration Mode; Goes back one mode }
RTA (config)#service password-encryption {Encrypts system passwords}
4) Set the Privilege EXEC mode passwords:
RTA (config)#enable password cisco {Password remains in clear text}
RTA (config)#enable secret class {Password will be encrypted, Overrides enable password}
5) Configure your desired interfaces:
RTA (config)#interface Fastethernet 0/0 { Physical Interfaces are hardware or platform specific}
RTA (config-if)#description LAN Connected to WEB Servers { adds a description to interface}
RTA (config-if)#ip address 192.1.2.33 255.255.255.224 { CIDR = /27}
RTA (config-if)#no shutdown {Enables the interface}
RTA (config)# interface serial 0/0 { Physical Interfaces are hardware or platform specific}
RTA (config-if)#ip address 192.4.5.129 255.255.255.224 { 27 bit mask }
RTA (config-if)#clock rate 56000 {Use on the DCE; sets the layer 1 bit rate in bps; not required on DTE side}
RTA (config-if)#no shutdown { Enables the interface }
RTA (config-if)#exit { Takes you back one level }
6) Configure Static Routing: Static route using next hop (Router) address or outgoing interface on local router
RTA (config)#ip route 192.1.2.32 255.255.255.224 192.4.5.6  Next hop on Remote Router
RTA (config)#ip route 192.7.8.64 255.255.255.192 Serial 0  Exit Serial interface on RTA
1) Configure a default Static Route: A default static route using LAN interface requires next hop address
RTA (config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Serial 0  default static route using the WAN exit interface
RTA (config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 Fastethernet 0/0 1.1.1.1 default static using LAN interface

RTA (config)# end { goes back to the privilege EXEC mode; same as Ctrl-z or Ctrl-c }
CCNA Switch Commands
1) Delete an existing Switch configuration:
Switch# erase startup-config
Erasing the nvram filesystem will remove all configuration files! Continue? [confirm] {Depress Enter key to confirm}
[OK] Erase of nvram: complete
Switch# delete vlan.dat
delete filename [vlan.dat] {Hit Enter to confirm}
delete flash:/ vlan.dat [confirm] {Hit Enter to confirm}
Switch#reload
System configuration has been modified. Save? [yes/no]:no
Proceed with reload? [confirm] {Hit Enter to confirm}
2) Name the Switch:
Switch> {User EXEC Mode}
Switch>enable {Responds with the password to enter the Privilege Mode, if one has been set}
Switch# {Privilege EXEC Mode}
Switch#configure terminal {Used to access global configuration mode}
Switch(config)#hostname SwA
SwA(config)#no ip domain lookup {Stops DNS look up interruptions while configuring the router}
3) Configure your user EXEC mode line passwords (Important: all line passwords are created in clear text) :
SwA(config)# line console 0 {Inbound Console access}
SwA(config-line)#password cisco {Sets the case sensitive password to cisco}
SwA(config-line)#login
SwA(config-line)#logging synchronous{Stops Console messages while configuring the router }
4) Configure your user EXEC mode line passwords (Important: all line passwords are created in clear text) :
SwA(config)# line vty 0 15 {Telnet access}
SwA(config-line)#password class {Sets the case sensitive password to class}
SwA(config-line)#login
SwA(config-line)#service password-encryption {Sets Cisco type 7 encryption on all type 0 passwords}
5) Set the Privilege EXEC mode passwords:
SwA (config)#enable password cisco {Password remains in clear text or type 0 encryption
SwA (config)#enable secret class {Type 5 encryption; overrides the enable password command}
6) Configure the Management VLAN interface for remote management:
SwA (config)# interface vlan 1
SwA (config-if)# ip address 192.168.1.2 255.255.255.248  Subnet Mask using 29 bit Mask
SwA (config-if)# no shutdown { enables the Switched Virtual Interface (SVI) }
7) Set a remote management Gateway:
SwA (config)#ip default-gateway 192.168.1.1 { Acts similar to a PC gateway for remote Mgmt }

CCNA Router and/or Switch Verification Commands


1) To verify the configuration in RAM on the router or switch issue the IOS command:
RTA – SwA# show running-config { Router or Switch configuration in RAM; unsaved }
2) To verify the configuration in NVRAM on the router or switch issue the IOS command:
RTA – SwA # show startup-config { Router or Switch configuration in Nonvolatile RAM; Saved in NVRAM }
3) To save the current configuration on the router or switch from RAM to NVRAM:
RTA – SwA #copy running-config startup-config {Depress the Enter key to confirm}
4) To verify the Router IP interfaces are functional:
RTA # show ip interface brief {Displays OSI layers 1, 2 and 3 information]
5) To display the contents of the routing table on the Router:
RTA # show ip route {Displays connected interfaces, static as well as learned routes }
6) To display the detailed router interface information:
RTA # show interfaces <module / port> {Displays detailed interface information}
