Chapter 5 Configuring the MGX RPM-PR

Booting the RPM-PR

Router(config)#interface fastEthernet 1/1

Step 3 You can assign an IP address and subnet mask to the interface with the ip address configuration subcommand, as in the following example.

Router(config-if)#ip address 172.29.54.166 255.255.255.0

Step 4 Enter any additional configuration subcommands required to enable routing protocols and set the interface characteristics.

Step 5 Start up the Ethernet interface by entering the following command:

Router(config-if)# no shutdown

Step 6 Configure additional interfaces as required.

Step 7 When you have included all of the configuration subcommands to complete the configuration, type end or press Ctrl-Zto exit configuration mode.

Step 8 Save your configuration changes as follows:

Router#copy run start

Selecting Half-duplex or Full-duplex Ethernet Communications

Half-duplex operation is the default transmission mode for the FE back cards. The following steps describe how to configure full-duplex ethernet communications.

Step 1 Enter the full-duplexcommand to configure full-duplex operation for the FE back cards.

Router>enable

Password:

Router#config t

Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z.

Router(config)#interface fastethernet 1/1

Router(config-if)#full-duplex

Router(config-if)#end

Step 2 Enter the show interfaces fastethernet command to verify that the 2/1 Fast Ethernet interface is now configured for full-duplex operation.

Router#show interface fastethernet 1/1
