Note To avoid losing work you have completed, be sure to save your configuration occasionally as you proceed. Use the copy running-configstartup-configcommand to save the configuration to NVRAM.

Step 6 When you have finished the initial configuration, verify the initial configuration. See the “Verify the Initial Configuration” section on page 22 for verification procedures.

Verify the Initial Configuration

To verify that the new interfaces are operating correctly, perform the following tests:

To verify that the interfaces are operating correctly and that the interfaces and line protocol are in the correct state—up or down—enter the show interfaces command.

To display a summary status of the interfaces configured for IP, enter the show ip interface brief command.

To verify that you configured the correct host name and password, enter the show configuration command.

When you complete and verify the initial configuration, your Cisco router is ready to configure for specific functions. See the “Where to Go Next” section on page 22 for information about locating documentation for advanced configuration procedures.
