Use this configuration? [yes/no]: yes [OK]

Use the enabled mode ‘configure’ command to modify this configuration.

Press RETURN to get started!

Your Cisco 7206 router is now minimally configured and ready to use. You can use the setup command if you want to modify the parameters after the initial configuration. To perform more complex configurations, use the configure command.

For information on additional interface configuration and specific system configurations, refer to the modular configuration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware. See Page 1 for documentation URLs.

Saving the Running Configuration to NVRAM

To store the configuration or changes to your startup configuration in NVRAM, enter the copy running-configstartup-configcommand at the Router# prompt:

Router# copy running-config startup-config

Using this command saves the configuration settings that you created in the router using configuration mode and the setup facility. If you fail to do this, your configuration will be lost the next time you reload the router.

Checking the Running Configuration Settings

To check the value of the settings you have entered, enter the show running-configcommand at the Router# prompt:

Router# show running-config

To review changes you make to the configuration, use the EXEC mode show startup-configcommand to display the information stored in NVRAM.

Viewing Your System Configuration

You can use the show version (or show hardware) and the show diag commands to display the system hardware (the network processing engine and the number of interfaces installed), the software version, the names and sources of configuration files, and the boot images. Use the show diag command to determine what type of port adapters and I/O controller are installed.

For specific information on the show version, show diag, and other commands, refer to the modular configuration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software configuration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware.
