Using the setup Command
This chapter describes how to use the setup command facility to configure your Cisco VG224. The setup command facility prompts you to enter information needed to start a router functioning quickly. The facility steps you through a basic configuration, including LAN and WAN interfaces.
This chapter presents the following major topics:
•Before Starting Your Cisco VG224
•Configuring Global Parameters
•Configuring Controller and Interface Parameters
If you prefer to configure the router manually or you wish to configure a module or interface that is not included in the setup command facility, proceed to ""Configuring with the Command-Line Interface," for step-by-step instructions.
Before Starting Your Cisco VG224
Before you power on your Cisco VG224 and begin to use the setup command facility, make sure to follow these steps:
Step 1 Set up the hardware as described in the installation documents for your Cisco VG224.
Step 2 Configure your PC terminal emulation program for 9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, and 1 stop bit.
Step 3 Determine which network protocols you are supporting.
Step 4 Determine the addressing plan for each network protocol.
Using the setup Command
The setup command facility is displayed in your PC terminal emulation program window.
To create a basic configuration for your Cisco VG224, do the following:
•Complete the steps in "Configuring Global Parameters" section.
•Complete the steps in "Configuring Controller and Interface Parameters" section.
•Complete the steps in "Completing the Configuration" section.
Note If you make a mistake while using the setup command facility, you can exit and run the facility again. Press Ctrl-C, and type setup at the enable mode prompt (Router#
).
Configuring Global Parameters
Step 1 Power on the Cisco VG224. The power switch is on the rear panel of the Cisco VG224, at the lower-right corner, near the power cord.
Messages begin to appear in your terminal emulation program window.
The messages look similar to the following:
Note Much of the following example is largely for a Cisco VG224. The messages vary, depending on the Cisco IOS software release, interface modules in place in your Cisco VG224, and feature set you select. In addition, the word "Router" is the default prompt, and may appear elsewhere; interpret this word as meaning "Cisco VG224." The screen displays in this section are for reference only and might not exactly reflect the messages on your console.

Completing the Configuration
When you have provided all the information prompted for by the setup command facility, the configuration appears.
Note For sample configurations, see "Cisco VG224 Configuration Example."
To complete your configuration, do the following:
Step 1 A setup command facility prompt asks if you want to save this configuration, with the following options:
[0] Go to the IOS command prompt without saving this config.
[1] Return back to the setup without saving this config.
[2] Save this configuration to nvram and exit.
If you answer 0, the configuration information you entered is not saved, and you return to the Cisco VG224 enable prompt (Router#
). Type setup to return to the System Configuration Dialog.
If you answer 1, you return to setup without saving the configuration.
If you answer 2, the configuration is saved and you are returned to the user EXEC prompt (Router>).
Step 2 When the messages stop appearing on your screen, press Return to get the Router>
prompt.
Step 3 The Router>
prompt indicates that you are now at the command-line interface (CLI) and you have just completed a basic Cisco VG224 configuration. However, this is not a complete configuration. At this point you have two choices:
•Run the setup command facility again and create another configuration. Enter the following:
Router> enable
Password: password
Router# setup
•Modify the existing configuration or configure additional features with the CLI as described in "Configuring with the Command-Line Interface."
Where to Go Next
At this point you can proceed to the following:
•""Configuring with the Command-Line Interface," to learn how to use the CLI to configure additional features.
