7Configuring the Cisco 10008 Router at Startup

This section explains how to create a basic running configuration for your Cisco 10008 router using the Cisco 10008 setup facility or the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI). For information on modifying the configuration after you create it, see the online Cisco 10000 Series Routers Documentation Roadmap document for links to a complete listing of documents that will help you configure the Cisco 10008 router.

To configure a Cisco 10008 router from the console, you must connect a terminal or terminal server to the router' console port. To configure the Cisco 10008 router over your Ethernet network management, you must have the router’s IP address available.

When you power on your Cisco 10008 router or execute the reload command, the console screen displays a message similar to the following:

Basic Configuration Using the Setup Facility

The first time you power on a Cisco 10008 router, the setup facility starts. You can also initiate the setup facility by running the setup command in privileged EXEC mode. This facility helps you enhance a default configuration that already exists on the Cisco 10008 router. The setup facility uses a question-and-answer sequence called the System Configuration Dialog to walk you through configuring the router.

You do not have to configure the interfaces immediately; however, you cannot enable the interfaces or connect them to any networks until you have configured them.
