Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router

--- 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 '[]'.

Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes/no]:

See the “Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router” section on page 4-3for additional information.

Note If the system configuration dialog message does not appear, a default configuration file was installed on the router prior to shipping. See the “Using Cisco Configuration Professional Express” section on page 4-7to configure the router.

Cisco Configuration Professional Express

Use the Cisco Configuration Professional Express web-based application to configure the initial router settings. See Cisco Configuration Professional Express User Guide on www.cisco.com for detailed instructions.

Cisco Command Line Interface

Cisco Command Line Interface (CLI) lets you configure the initial router settings manually. If you see the following messages, the router has booted and is ready for initial configuration using the CLI. For how to use the CLI to configure the router, see the “Using Cisco IOS CLI—Manual Configuration” section on page 4-7.

Note If the rommon 1> prompt appears, your system has booted in ROM monitor mode. For information on the ROM monitor, see Using the ROM Monitor in the software configuration guide for the router.

Verifying the Power Supply Side LED Indications

The front-panel indicator LEDs described in Table 1-5 on page 1-9provide power, activity, and status information useful during power up.

Performing the Initial Configuration on the Router

Use the following tools to perform the initial configuration on the router:

•Using the Cisco Setup Command Facility

•Using Cisco Configuration Professional Express

•Using Cisco IOS CLI—Manual Configuration
