Chapter 4 Performing a Basic Configuration of the System

Configuring the Cisco 7500 Series System

Extended appletalk network? [no]: yes

appletalk starting cable range [0]:

appletalk zone: zonename

Step 4 Save your settings to NVRAM. (For more information on saving settings to NVRAM, see the “Saving the Settings to NVRAM and Reviewing Your Configuration” section on page 4-19.) If additional Ethernet interfaces are available in your system, you are prompted for their configurations as well.

Configuring a Synchronous Serial Interface

The synchronous serial interfaces are configured to allow connection to WANs through a CSU/DSU.

Use the following procedure to configure a serial interface:

Step 1 Enter yes to configure serial port 0:

Configuring interface Serial1/0:

Is this interface in use? [no]: yes

Step 2 Determine which protocols you want to allow on the synchronous serial interface and enter the appropriate responses:

Configure IP unnumbered on this interface? [no]:

IP address for this interface: 10.1.1.20

Number of bits in subnet field [0]:

Class A network is 10.0.0.0, 0 subnet bits; mask is 255.0.0.0

Configure IPX on this interface? [no]: yes

IPX network number [2]:

Configure AppleTalk on this interface? [no]: yes

Extended AppleTalk network? [no]:

AppleTalk network number [1]:

Step 3 Save your settings to NVRAM. (See the “Saving the Settings to NVRAM and Reviewing Your Configuration” section on page 4-19.) If additional synchronous serial interfaces are available in your system, you are prompted for their configurations as well.

Note The following sample display includes a continuous listing of all interface configuration parameters selected for Ethernet and synchronous serial interfaces. These parameters are shown in the order in which they appear on your console terminal.

Only one Ethernet and one synchronous serial interface are configured for this example.
