net to connect to the new rou ter from the existing router and use the
setup facility to configure the rest of the interfaces. For example, th
line in the network-confg or cisconet.cfg file could be si milar to:
ip host newrouter 131.108.170.1
This host configuration file contains the minimal set of commands
needed for AutoInstall using SLARP or BOOTP:
enable-password letmein
!
line vty 0
password letmein
!
end
The preceding example s hows a minimal configur ation for conn ecting
from a router one hop away. From t his configuration, use the setup fa-
cility to configure the rest of the interfaces. If the router is more than
one hop away, you also must include routing information in the mini-
mal configuration.
This example minimal network configuration file maps the new
router's IP address, 131.108.10.2, to the host name newrouter. The
new router's address was learned v ia SLARP and is based on the exist-
ing router's IP address of 131.108.10.1.
ip host newrouter 131.108.10.2
Set Up the BOOTP or RARP ServerIf the new router is connected to the existing router using an Ethernet,
Token Ring, or FDDI interface, you must configure a BOOTP or
RARP server to map the new router's MAC address to its IP address.
If the new router is connected to the existing router using a serial line
with HDLC encapsulation or if you are configuring AutoInstall over
Frame Relay, these tasks are not required.
To configure a BOOTP or RARP server, complete o n e of these t a sks:
1. If BOOTP is to be used to resolve the new router's IP address, con-
figure your BOOTP server. Refer to your hos t vendor's manual
pages and to RFCs 951 and 1395.
