Installing Software When a Firewall Does Not Exist E-Series Routers

B-9

Task 1: Obtain the Required Information

Before you install the software, obtain the following information:

•The password (if one is configured) that allows you to access Privileged Exec mode on the E-series router

•The IP address of the network host

•The IP address of the E-series router

•The IP address of the next hop to reach the destination network (for example, a gateway)

•The login name and password for the FTP server

•The procedure for mounting a CD on the network host

Task 2: Divert Network Traffic to Another Router

The system will be unavailable during the installation process.

Task 3: Access Privileged Exec Mode

To access this mode via the CLI:

1Issue the enable command.

host1>enable

2Type the password if the system prompts you.

Task 4: Configure IP on an Interface

Typically, you configure IP on the Fast Ethernet interface of the SRP module. To configure IP on an interface:

1Determine the slot number of the module.

host1#show version

2Determine the port number of the module.

3Determine whether the interface already has an IP address.

host1#show ip interface fastEthernet 6/0

If an IP interface is not configured, you see the message: “Invalid interface.”

If the interface already has an IP address, go to Task 5. Otherwise, proceed with step 4.
