Configuring the Cisco 12008
Checking the Software Version Number and the Installed Interfaces
To determine the current version of the Cisco IOS software running on your router, issue
the show version command at the user EXEC prompt (Router>).
This command causes the Cisco IOS version number to be displayed, as well as other
information, including the hardware installed in the system, the names and sources of
system image files, and the contents of the software configuration register.
A typical sample display resulting from the issuance of the show version command
follows:
