Configuring the Interfaces
You can modify the startup configuration for Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers through the software command interpreter called EXEC. To configure the interfaces for interface processors, you can use either one of the following EXEC commands:
setup
configure
The setup command facility can be used after first time startup to make basic changes at any time. The changes you make will affect only the changed elements’ current memory values that are stored in nonvolatile memory.
The privileged EXEC command configure enables you to perform advanced configurations such as specifying interfaces.
The EXEC interprets the commands you enter and carries out the corresponding operations. You can list available EXEC commands by entering a question mark (?). You also can enter a question mark to obtain more information about commands. For example, enter terminal ? to obtain a list of terminal commands or show ? to obtain a list of show commands.
Using the EXEC Command Interpreter
Before you use the setup or the configure command, you must have privileged access to the EXEC command interpreter. The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an angle bracket (>).
The EXEC enable command allows access to the privileged level, prompting for a password if one has been set with the
Follow these steps to enter the privileged level of the EXEC.
Step 1 At the EXEC prompt for a router, enter the enable command:
Router> enable
The EXEC prompts you for a privileged level password:
Password:
Step 2 Enter the password.
For security purposes, the password is not displayed. (Also note that the password is case sensitive). When you enter the correct password, the system displays the privileged mode system prompt:
