Router# setup

VIP Port Adapter Functions

Note After you start the setup command facility, the system runs through the entire conﬁguration process; you cannot quit out of it. To make a change or correct a mistake, press the Return key at each prompt, answer no when asked if you want to save the conﬁguration, and restart the setup facility.

Following is the procedure for using the setup facility to conﬁgure the 4R Token Ring interfaces:

Step 1 After you access the privileged level of the EXEC, as described in the section “Using the EXEC Command Interpreter” on page 37, enter the setup command to begin the setup facility:

Step 1 The following script is displayed on the screen, with the name of your router as the default in the brackets.

-System Configuration Dialog-

At any point you may enter a question mark ‘?’ for help. Refer to the ‘Getting Started’ Guide for additional help. Default settings are in square brackets ‘[]’.

Continue with configuration dialog? [yes]:

(Use Ctrl-c to abort configuration at any prompt) Configuring global parameters:

Enter host name [Router]: sandbox

Step 2 To accept the default and keep the router name, press Return. (If you do want to change the name of the router, enter the new name before pressing Return.)

Step 3 Proceed through the remainder of the global parameter prompts, using the Return key to accept the defaults.

After the global parameters are conﬁgured, the system prompts you for interface conﬁguration information, one interface at a time. Following is a partial display of the script for a previously conﬁgured interface:

Configuring interface parameters:

Configuring interface Token Ring0: Is this interface in use [yes]: Tokenring ring speed (4 or 16) [16] Configure IP on this interface? [yes]: IP address for this interface: 1.1.1.30 (remainder of display text omitted)

Caution Each 4R port adapter interface must be conﬁgured for the same ring speed as the ring to which it is connected; either 4 or 16 Mbps. If the 4R port adapter interface is set for a different speed, it will cause the ring to beacon, which effectively brings the ring down and makes it inoperable.

Step 4 To accept the default at each prompt and retain the existing conﬁguration information, press the Return key. When you reach the scripts for conﬁguring new interfaces, enter the new conﬁguration information at each prompt.

When all interfaces are conﬁgured, the system displays the entire conﬁguration script followed by a prompt for which there is no default (you must enter yes or no):

Use this configuration [yes/no]:
