Chapter 4 Objectives The Cisco router IOS Enhanced editing Administrative functions Hostnames Banners Passwords Interface descriptions Verifying your configuration
Cisco Router IOS Carries network protocols and functions Connects high-speed traffic between devices Adds security to control access Provides scalability for growth Supplies reliability
Connecting To A Cisco Router Cisco 2811 Cisco 1841
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

Administrative Functions The administrative functions that you can configure on a router and switch are Hostnames Banners Password Interface descriptions
Hostnames & Descriptions Hostnames Router(config)# hostname todd todd(config)# Descriptions Atlanta(config)# int e0 Atlanta(config-if)# description Sales Lan
Banners Purpose Types exec incoming login motd Delimiting character
Setting the Passwords 5 passwords: 1st  two  used to set your  enable  password Used to secure privileged mode;  Router>enable Other  three  are used to configure a password in  user  mode via: console port auxiliary port Telnet
Passwords Enable passwords Router(config)# enable password cisco Router(config)# enable secret cisco Auxiliary Password Console Password Telnet Password Encrypting Your Password Router(config)# service password-encryption
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. Here’s 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.
Router Interfaces Bringing up an Interface no shutdown shutdown show interface Configuring an IP Address on an Interface Router(config)# int e0 Router(config-if)# ip address 172.16.10.2 255.255.255.0 Router(config-if)# no shut Serial Interface Commands clock rate  &  bandwidth  (entered in  kilobits )
Viewing, & Saving Configurations Viewing & Saving Configurations running-config  saved in  DRAM startup-config   saved in  NVRAM copy run start sh run sh start erase startup-config
Verifying Your Configuration Tools: show running-config show startup-config ping show cdp nei detail trace telnet
Other Verification Methods Verifying with the  show interface  command Router# show interface ? Verifying with the  show ip interface  command Router# show ip interface Router# show ip interface brief Router# show controllers
