Chapter 4 Observing System Startup and Performing a Basic Configuration
Configuring a Cisco 7200 VXR Router
The first two sections of the configuration script (the banner and the installed hardware) appear only at
initial system startup. On subsequent uses of the setup facility, the script begins with a System
Configuration Dialog as shown in the following example.
--- System Configuration Dialog ---
At any point you may enter a question mark '?' for help.
Use ctrl-c to abort configuration dialog at any prompt.
Default settings are in square brackets '[]'.
Step 2 When asked if you want to enter the initial configuration dialog and see the current interface summary,
enter yes or press Return:
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes]:
First, would you like to see the current interface summary? [yes]:
In the following example, the summary shows a Cisco 7200 VXR router at first-time startup; that is,
nothing is configured.
Any interface listed with OK? value "NO" does not have a valid configuration
Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol
ATM1/0 unassigned NO unset down down
FastEthernet2/0 unassigned NO unset down down
Step 3 Choose which protocols to support on your interfaces. For Internet Protocol (IP)-only installations, you
can accept the default values for most of the questions. A typical configuration using IP, IPX, and
AppleTalk follows and continues through
Step 8:
Configuring global parameters:
Enter host name [Router]:
Step 4 Enter enable secret, enable, and virtual terminal passwords:
The enable secret password is a one-way cryptographic secret
password used instead of the enable password when it exists.
Enter enable secret: barney
The enable password is used when there is no enable secret
password and when using older software and some boot images.
Enter enable password: betty
Enter virtual terminal password: fred
Step 5 The Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) is the most widely supported open standard for
network management. It provides a means to access and set configuration and run-time parameters of
routers and communication servers. SNMP defines a set of functions that can be used to monitor and
control network elements.
Enter yes or press Return to accept SNMP management; enter no to refuse it:
Configure SNMP Network Management? [yes]:
