- Task 1 - The Initial Configuration Dialog
- Step 2
- Step 3
Command Line ModesBefore proceeding with the first task, familiarize yourself with the various command line modes Cisco devices use. The most common modes are as follows: User Exec Mode - signified by the > at the end of the device name, for example, NYEDGE1> Privileged Executive Mode - signified by the # symbol at the end of the device name, for example, NYEDGE1# Global Configuration Mode - signified by the (config)# at the end of the device name, for example, NYEDGE1 (config)# When you first connect to a router, it’s in a user exec mode (>) by default. To change to a privileged exec mode (#) and start configuring our device, the following command is used: NYEDGE1>enable NYEDGE1# There are many other modes that branch off from the global configuration mode, such as line configuration mode or VLAN configuration mode, which will change the command prompt slightly. The most commonly used is the interface configuration mode which appears as follows: NYEDGE1(config-if)# Task 1 - The Initial Configuration DialogIn this task, you will perform the initial router booting process . You will view the different syslog messages that are generated during the boot process. Step 1Connect to NYEDGE1. You will notice that once the device begins to boot up, the terminal window appears. The boot-up process is useful to watch as you can view the router going through its various boot and test stages. Remember, these are real Cisco devices, so depending on the hardware and software of the device, this may take a few minutes. Larger more feature-rich IOSs take longer to boot than smaller ones. Once the device has booted, you will see the initial configuration dialog appear. The boot-up process can take a while before the initial configuration dialog appears. You will see the following output: CISCO2911/K9 platform with 524288 Kbytes of main memory Main memory is configured to 72/-1(On-board/DIMM0) bit mode with ECC enabled Readonly ROMMON initialized program load complete, entry point: 0x80803000, size: 0x1b340 program load complete, entry point: 0x80803000, size: 0x1b340 IOS Image Load Test ___________________ Digitally Signed Release Software program load complete, entry point: 0x81000000, size: 0x5e8ba54 Self decompressing the image : ##################################################################################################### #################################################################################################################################### #################################################################################################################################### #################################################################################################################################### ######################################################################################### [OK] Smart Init is enabled smart init is sizing iomem TYPE MEMORY_REQ HWIC Slot 0 0x00200000 Onboard devices & buffer pools 0x0228F000 ----------------------------------------------- TOTAL: 0x0248F000 Rounded IOMEM up to: 40Mb.
