Chapter 2 First-Time Configuration

Using the Setup Command Facility

Before Starting Your Router

Before you power ON your router and begin to use the setup command facility, make sure you follow these steps:

Step 1 Set up the hardware and connect the console and network cables as described in the Cisco MWR 1900 Router Hardware Installation Guide.

Step 2 Configure your PC terminal emulation program for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.

Using the Setup Command Facility

The setup command facility displays from your PC terminal emulation program window.

To create a basic configuration for your router, do the following:

Complete the steps in the “Configuring Global Parameters” section on page 2-3.

Complete the steps in the “Completing the Configuration” section on page 2-5.

Note If you make a mistake while using the setup command facility, you can exit and run the facility again. Press Ctrl-c, and type setup at the enable mode prompt (1900#).

Configuring Global Parameters

Step 1 Power ON the router, see the Cisco MWR 1900 Router Hardware Installation Guide.

Messages will begin to appear in your terminal emulation program window.

Caution Do not press any keys on the keyboard until the messages stop. Any keys pressed during this time are interpreted as the first command typed when the messages stop, which might cause the router to power off and start over. It takes a few minutes for the messages to stop.
