Chapter 1 Basic Router Configuration

Configuring Basic Parameters

Last clearing of "show interface" counters never Queuing strategy: fifo

Output queue 0/0, 0 drops; input queue 0/75, 0 drops 5 minute input rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

5 minute output rate 0 bits/sec, 0 packets/sec

0 packets input, 0 bytes, 0 no buffer

Received 0 broadcasts, 0 runts, 0 giants, 0 throttles

0 input errors, 0 CRC, 0 frame, 0 overrun, 0 ignored, 0 abort 0 packets output, 0 bytes, 0 underruns

0 output errors, 0 collisions, 0 interface resets

0 output buffer failures, 0 output buffers swapped out

Another way to verify the loopback interface is to ping it:

Router# ping 200.200.100.1 Type escape sequence to abort.

Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echos to 200.200.100.1, timeout is 2 seconds:

!!!!!

Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/2/4 ms

Configuring Command-Line Access to the Router

Perform these steps to configure parameters to control access to the router, beginning in global configuration mode:

		Command	Purpose
	Step 1
		line [aux console tty vty] line-number	Enters line configuration mode, and specifies the
			type of line.
		Example:	This example specifies a console terminal for
		Router(config)# line console 0	access.
		Router(config-line)#
	Step 2
		password password	Specifies a unique password for the console
			terminal line.
		Example:
		Router(config-line)# password 5dr4Hepw3
		Router(config-line)#
	Step 3
		login	Enables password checking at terminal session
			login.
		Example:
		Router(config-line)# login
		Router(config-line)#
	Step 4
		exec-timeoutminutes [seconds]	Sets the interval that the EXEC command
			interpreter waits until user input is detected. The
		Example:	default is 10 minutes. Optionally, add seconds to
		Router(config-line)# exec-timeout 5 30	the interval value.
		Router(config-line)#	This example shows a timeout of 5 minutes and
			30 seconds. Entering a timeout of 0 0 specifies
			never to time out.
