AI2524 Router Card User’s Manual

When using AutoInstall over Frame Relay, you are put into setup mode while the AutoInstall process is running. If the configuration file is successfully installed, the setup process is terminated. If you expect the AutoInstall process to be successful, either do not respond to the setup prompts or respond to the prompts as:

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

Would you like to terminate autoinstall? [yes]: no

If you do not expect the AutoInstall process to be successful, create configuration file by responding to the setup prompts. The AutoInstall process is terminated transparently.

You will see this display as the AutoInstall operation is in progress:

Please Wait. AutoInstall being attempted!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If the host configuration file contains only the minimal information, you must connect to existing using Telnet. From there, connect via Telnet to newrouter. Then, run the setup command to configure ne wrouter. Refer to Use Setup for Configuration Changes, for specific information about the setup command.

If the host configuration file is complete, newrouter should be fully op- erational. You can enter the enable command (with the system ad- ministrator password) at the system prompt on newrouter. Then, enter the copy running-configstartup-configcommand to save the information in the recently obtained configuration file into nonvolatile random-access memory (NVRAM) or to the location spec- ified by the CONFIG_FILE environment variable. If it must reload, newrouter simply loads its configuration file from NVRAM.

If the TFTP request fails, or if newrouter still has not obtained the IP addresses of all its interfaces, and if those addresses are not contained in the host configuration file, then newrouter enters setup mode auto- matically. Setup mode prompts you for manual configuration of the Cisco IOS software at the console. The new router continues to issue broadcasts to attempt to learn its host name and obtain any unresolved interface addresses. The broadcast frequency will dwindle to every 10 minutes after several attempts. Refer to Use Setup for Configuration Change , for specific information about th setup command.
