Bringing up a Router
Boot-up process:
1: POST
2: Looks for the Cisco IOS from Flash
memory
3: IOS loads & looks for a valid
configuration;
startup-config
stored in nonvolatile RAM (NVRAM)
4: If a valid config is not found in NVRAM:
setup mode

Setup Mode
Basic Management Setup
Extended Setup
Command-Line Interface

Command-Line Interface (CLI)


More flexible than setup mode.
To use the CLI, just say No to
entering the initial configuration
dialog.

Logging into the Router


User mode:
Router>
Used mostly to view statistics

Privileged mode:
Router#
Used to view & change router
configuration

Overview of Router Modes


Global changes:
config terminal or config t
Changes made to running-config
(DRAM)
To change the startup-config (NVRAM)
config memory or config mem
Note: Any configuration changes need to
be placed into RAM. Typing config mem or
config net (from a TFTP host) will append
the current running-config

Router(config)#enable secret cisco

Auxiliary Password
Console Password
Telnet Password
Encrypting Your Password
Router(config)#service passwordencryption

Interface Descriptions
Setting descriptions on an interface is helpful to the
administrator and, like the hostname, only locally
significant. The description command is a helpful one
because you can, for instance, use it to keep track of
circuit numbers.
Heres an example:
Atlanta(config)#int e0
Atlanta(config-if)#description Sales Lan
Atlanta(config-if)#int s0
Atlanta(config-if)#desc Wan to Miami circuit:6fdda4321

You can view the description of an interface


either with the show running-config command
or the show interface command.
