8.For the following queries, enable routing on AppleTalk and IPX:

Configure AppleTalk? [no]: yes

Multizone networks? [no]: yes

Configure IPX? [no]: yes

9.For the following queries, do not enable VINES, XNS, DECnet, or bridging:

Configure Vines? [no]:

Configure XNS? [no]:

Configure DECnet? [no]:

Configure bridging? [no]:

10.In most cases you will use IP routing. If you are using IP routing, you must also select an interior routing protocol. You can specify only one of two interior routing protocols to operate on your system using the setup facility: Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (IGRP) or Routing Information Protocol (RIP). To configure IP routing, enter yes (the default) or press Return, and then select an interior routing protocol:

Configure IP? [yes]:

Configure IGRP routing? [yes]:

Your IGRP autonomous system number [1]: 15

In the following example, routing is enabled on AppleTalk and IPX; IP is already selected:

Configure AppleTalk? [no]: yes

Multizone networks? [no]: yes

Configure IPX? [no]: yes

The following sample display includes a continuous listing of all configuration parameters selected in Step 4. through Step 10.. These parameters are shown in the order in which they appear on your console terminal. Only IP, IPX, and AppleTalk are the selected protocols for this example.

Configuring global parameters:

Enter host name [Router]: router

The enable secret is a one-way cryptographic secret used instead of the enable password when it exists.

Enter enable secret: barney

The enable password is used when there is no enable secret and when using older software and some boot images.

Enter enable password: betty

Enter virtual terminal password: fred

Configure SNMP Network Management? [yes]:

Community string [public]:

Configure IP? [yes]:

Configure IGRP routing? [yes]:

Your IGRP autonomous system number [1]: 15

Configure Vines? [no]:

Configure IPX? [no]: y

Configure AppleTalk? [no]: y

Multizone networks? [no]: y

Configure Apollo? [no]:

Configure DECnet? [no]:

Configure XNS? [no]:

Configure CLNS? [no]:

Configure bridging? [no]:

11.Save your settings to NVRAM. (Refer to the “Saving the Running Configuration to NVRAM” section on page 27.)
