4.Enter an IP address for the interface. This step sets the IP address of the existing router.

ip address address mask

5.Configure a helper address for the TFTP server. ip helper-addressaddress3

6.Optionally, configure a DCE clock rate for the serial line, unless an external clock is being used. This step is needed only for DCE applications.

clock rate bps1

7.To exit configuration mode, press <Ctrl-Z>.

8.Save the configuration file to your startup configuration. This step saves the configuration to NVRAM.

copy running-config startup-config

You must use a DTE interface on the new router because the network always provides the clock signal.

In this example, the existing router's configuration file contains the commands needed to configure the router for Frame Relay AutoInstall on a serial line:

Router# configure terminal interface serial 0

ip address 172.31.20.20 255.255.255.0 encapsulation frame-relay

frame-relay map ip 172.31.10.1 255.255.255.0 48 ip helper-address 172.31.20.5

Set Up the TFTP Server

For AutoInstall to work correctly, the new router must resolve its host name and then download a name-confg or a name.cfg file from a TFTP server. The new router can resolve its host name by using a network- confg or a cisconet.cfg file downloaded from a TFTP server or by using the DNS.

To set up a TFTP server to support AutoInstall, complete these tasks. Step 2 includes two ways to resolve the new router's host name. Use the first method if you want to us network-confg file to resolve the new router's host name. Use the second method if you want to us DNS to resolve the new router's host name.
