Performing a Basic Configuration Using the Setup Facility

If you do not plan to use AutoInstall, do not connect the router’s serial (WAN) cable to the channel service unit/data service unit (CSU/DSU). If the WAN cable is not connected, the router boots from Flash memory and goes automatically into the setup facility.

Note You can run the setup facility any time you are at the enable prompt (#) by entering the setup command.

If the serial (WAN) cable is connected to the CSU/DSU and the router does not have a configuration stored in NVRAM, the router attempts to run AutoInstall at startup. The router may take several minutes to determine that AutoInstall is not set up to a remote TCP/IP host. Once the router determines that AutoInstall is not configured, it defaults to the setup facility.

Configuring Global Parameters

When you first start the setup program, you must configure the global parameters. These parameters are used for controlling system-wide settings. Complete the following steps to enter the global parameters:

1.Connect a console terminal to the console port on the I/O controller.

2.Power on the router.

The system boots from Flash memory. After startup, the console screen displays a script and a system banner—after about

30 seconds—similar to the following. When you see this information, you have successfully booted your router:
