Configuring the Cisco 12008

Note The sample configuration dialog in this section continues the script displayed when you used the setup facility or the setup command in establishing the system’s global parameters (see the section entitled “Configuring Global Parameters”). The output shown in this section is only an example; your configuration dialog might be different, depending on how you configure your router.

To configure the Ethernet interfaces on the RP and the network interfaces for the installed line cards, perform the following steps:

Step 1 Configure the RP Ethernet interfaces.

The RJ-45 and MII receptacles on the faceplate of the GRP are IEEE 802.3u- compliant interfaces. The RJ-45 receptacles on the faceplate of the PRP are IEEE 802.3u-compliant interfaces. These IEEE interfaces provide connectivity to Ethernet networks.

In the following example, the system is being configured for an Ethernet interface that will use the IP network layer protocol. (The Ethernet interface does not support external routing functions.)

In the following configuration dialog, respond to the queries according to your own configuration requirements. Use your IP address and subnet mask in responding to the setup prompts.

Configuring interface Ethernet0:

Is this interface in use?: yes

Configure IP on this interface?: yes

IP address for this interface: 3.3.1.1

Number of bits in subnet field: 8

Class A network is 3.0.0.0, 8 subnet bits; mask is 255.255.0.0 Configure CLNS on this interface?: yes

Step 2 Configure the line card interfaces.

The Packet-Over-SONET (POS) line card interfaces enable connections to be made to external OC-3/STM-1 or OC-12/STM-4 networks.

In the following sample configuration dialog for a Quad OC-3c POS line card, respond to the queries according to your configuration requirements. Use your IP address and subnet mask in responding to the setup prompts.
