B. Boot the Router

Installation

Phase 4: Initialize and Verify the Router

 

B. Boot the Router

 

After you create or change a configuration (pages 1-28 and 1-29), boot-

 

ing the router causes it to replace the former configuration with the

 

newly created one. Thus, in all cases, you must boot (or reboot) the

 

router when you are ready to implement any changes you have made in

 

the configuration.

 

 

N o t e

If you use the Quick Configuration utility to create or change a

 

configuration, you can boot the router as part of the process for exiting

 

from the utility. In this case it is unnecessary to also use the NCL Boot

 

command described in this subsection.

 

When you use the Configuration Editor to create or change a configura-

 

tion, use the NCL ‘‘boot’’ command to replace the former configuration

 

with the newly created one.

 

To boot the router now:

1.In the Main menu (page 1-27), press [2] to select the Network Control Language Interpreter (NCL).

You will then see the NCL prompt. This prompt matches the current system name. For example, if the system name is

DEFAULT_CONFIG

then the NCL prompt appears.
