The document provides instructions for initial configuration of a Cisco switch and router. It describes the boot up processes, including observing LEDs and output text. It also explains how to access different command modes, set the switch and router names, configure IP addresses, and review the running configuration. Help features like context sensitive help and command history are also summarized.

1. 27 Objectives On completion of this chapter , you will be able to perform the following tasks: Start up the Catalyst switch and Cisco router and observe the boot up processes Provide an initial configuration for the switch and perform the router ‘ s initial setup configuration Enable and identify the commands modes in each network device Use the various help and command line-editing features of each device’s user interface Show and recognize fundamental technical details about each network device

2. 27 Cisco Internetwork Operating System (IOS) Software Cisco IOS Software delivers network services and enable networked applications.

3. 27 Network Device Configuration Configuration Sets the device with: --Network policy of the functions required --Protocol addressing and parameter settings --Options for administration and management Catalyst Switch memory has initial configuration with default settings Cisco router will prompt for initial configuration if there is no configuration in memory

4. 27 An Overview of Cisco Device Startup Find and check device hardware Find and local Cisco IOS software image Find and apply device configurations

6. 27 Cisco IOS User interface Fundamentals Uses a command line interface. Operations vary on different internetworking devices. Type or paste entire in the console command modes. Enter Key instructs device to parse and execute the command. Two primary EXEC modes are user mode and privileged mode. Command modes have distinctive prompts.

7. 27 Cisco IOS Software EXEC There are two main EXEC modes for entering commands . First mode: User Mode Limited examination of switch or router Command prompt is hostname >

8. 27 The Cisco IOS Software EXEC (cont.) Second mode (and most commonly used): Privileged (or enabled )Mode Detailed examination of switch or router Enable configuration and debugging Prerequisite for other configuration modes Command prompt on the device hostname #

9. 27 Initial Start Up Of The Catalyst witch System startup routines initiate switch software Initial startup uses default configuration parameters 1. Before you start the switch , verify the cabling and console connection 2. Attach the power cable plug to the switch power supply socket 3. Observe the boot sequence __ LEDs on the switch chassis __ Cisco IOS software output text

12. 27 Switch Command Line Help Facilities Context_Sensitive Help Provides a list of commands and the arguments associated with a specific command. Console Error Messages Identify problems with Switch commands incorrectly entered so that you can alter or correct them . Command History Buffer Allows recall of long or complex commands or entries for reentry,review or correction.
