Chapter 4 Configuring the Router

Powering up the Router

•Passwords for access control are selected.

•IP addresses for the Ethernet and serial interfaces have been determined.

Power Up Procedure

To power up your Cisco router, follow this procedure to verify the router has performed the initialization and self-test. When the procedure is finished, the router is ready to configure.

If you encounter problems while powering on the router, see the Troubleshooting page for the router on www.cisco.com.

For information about the ROM monitor and the bootstrap program, see Using the ROM Monitor in the software configuration guide for the router. For information about the configuration register, see Changing the Configuration Register Settings in the software configuration guide for the router.

Note To view the boot sequence, you must establish console connection to the Cisco router before it powers up.

Step 1 Make sure that your PC is powered up and connected as described in the “Checklist for Power Up” section on page 4-1.

Step 2 Make connectivity to the power blocks.

•SYS LED on the front of the chassis begins blinking green.

•Startup messages appear in your Console window. When the startup messages finish, the SYS LED appears solid green.

Caution Do not press any keys on the keyboard until the messages stop and the SYS LED is solid green. Any keys pressed during this time are interpreted as the first command typed when the messages stop, which might cause the router to power off and start over. It takes a few minutes for the messages to stop.

If you encounter a problem during the power up process, see Troubleshooting on the www.cisco.com product page.

Step 3 Use any of the following tools to perform the initial configuration.

•Cisco Configuration Professional Express, page 4-3

Note Cisco recommends using Cisco Configuration Professional Express to perform the initial configuration on the router because it provides a web-based graphical-user interface. See the “Cisco Configuration Professional Express” section on page 4-3.

•Cisco Command Line Interface, page 4-3

Cisco Setup Command Facility

Cisco Setup Command Facility lets you configure the initial router settings through a configuration dialog. If you see the following messages, the router has booted and is ready for initial configuration using the setup command facility.
