The message Configuring interface IP parameters for

information.

The streamlined setup command facility continues, prompting you fo interface parameters for each installed interface. The facility asks if an interface is in use. If so, the facility prompts you to provide an IP ad dress and subnet mask bits for the interface. Enter the subnet mask bits as a decimal value, such as 5.

This example shows the portion of the streamlined setup command fa- cility that prompts for interface parameters. In the example, the facility is prompting for Ethernet0 interface parameters and Serial0 interface parameters:

Configuring interface Ethernet0: Is this interface in use? [yes]: Configure IP on this interface? [yes]:

IP address for this interface: 192.195.78.50

Number of bits in subnet field [0]: 5

Class C network is 192.195.78.0, 5 subnet bits; mask is 255.255.255.248 Configuring interface Serial0: Is this interface in use? [yes]:

Configure IP on this interface? [yes]:

IP address for this interface: 192.195.78.34 Number of bits in subnet field [5]:

Class C network is 192.195.78.0, 5 subnet bits; mask is 255.255.255.248

The configuration information you provide on this screen is temporary and exists only so you can boot your system. When you reload the sys- tem, your original configuration remains intact. If your startup config- uration is corrupted, enter the setup command facility and configur the basic parameters. Then issue the copy running-configstartup-configcommand to write this configuration to

NVRAM.
