Cisco Systems VIP-4R/4T manual Follow these steps to enter the privileged level of the EXEC

VIP Port Adapter Functions

Using the EXEC Command Interpreter

Before you use the setup or the configure command, you must have privileged access to the EXEC command interpreter. The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an angle bracket (>).

The EXEC enable command allows access to the privileged level, prompting for a password if one has been set with the enable-passwordconfiguration command.

Follow these steps to enter the privileged level of the EXEC.

Step 1 At the EXEC prompt for a router, enter the enable command:

Router> enable

The EXEC prompts you for a privileged level password:

Password:

Step 2 Enter the password.

For security purposes, the password is not displayed. (Also note that the password is case sensitive). When you enter the correct password, the system displays the privileged mode system prompt:

Router#

To configure Token Ring interfaces using the setup EXEC command facility, follow the instructions in the section “Using the Setup Command.” To configure the Token Ring interfaces by using the configure EXEC command, follow the instructions in the section “Using the Configure EXEC Command” on page 39.

Using the Setup Command

The setup command facility identifies all interfaces (including the Token Ring interfaces for the ports on the 4R port adapter) that are installed and prompts you for configuration information for each installed interface. When you finish configuring one interface, the setup command facility prompts you for the next, continuing until each interface has been configured.

When you enter the setup command facility after first time startup, you must run through the entire dialog until you come to the interface you want to change. Note that when you use the setup command after first time startup, the default values indicated within the brackets in the System Configuration Dialog are the values last set using the setup command facility or left as defaults.

After you choose to continue with the setup command (by answering yes to the system configuration dialog prompt), the remainder of the script is the actual configuration process. The dialog prompts you first for global system parameters, then for configuration information for each interface. The existing configuration is displayed as the default, in brackets ([ ]), at the end of each prompt. Press Return to accept the default settings.
