vIt offers a short-cut to the detailed con®guration of the normal mode command set.

Quick Con®g sets a number of default parameters based upon how you answer the con®guration questions. What cannot be con®gured with Quick Con®g can be con®gured using Con®g after exiting Quick Con®g.

You cannot delete Quick Con®g information from within Quick Con®g. However, you can correct information either by exiting and returning to Quick Con®g, or by entering the restart command as a response to some Quick Con®g questions.

For complete information on using the Quick Con®g software, see ªAppendix A. Quick Con®guration Referenceº on page 651.

You cannot delete Quick Con®g information; but you can correct it by exiting and returning to Quick Con®g.

Manual Entry Into Quick Con®g Mode

You might want to run Quick Con®g manually to demonstrate the router's capabilities or to recon®gure dynamically to perform benchmark tests without having to learn the router's operating system commands.
