Using Setup
After you choose to continue with the setup command (by answering yes to the system configuration
dialog prompt), the remainder of the script is the actual configuration process. The dialog prompts
you first for global system parameters, then for configuration information for each interface. The
existing configuration is displayed as the default, in brackets ([ ]), at the end of each prompt. Press
the Return key to accept the default settings.
Note After you start the setup facility, the system runs through the entire configuration process; you
cannot quit out of it. If you want to make a change or correct a mistake, press the Return key at each
prompt, answer no when asked if you want to save the configuration, and restart the setup facility.

The configuration process is complete.
For descriptions of show commands you can use to display and verify the configuration information,
proceed to the section "Checking the Configuration" on page 30.
The following script is displayed on the screen, with the name of your router as the default
in the brackets:
Configuring global parameters:
Enter host name [router]:
Press Return to accept the default and keep the router name. (If you do want to change the
name of the router, enter the new name before pressing Return.)
Proceed through the remainder of the global parameter prompts; use the Return key to
accept the defaults.
After the global parameters are configured, the system prompts you for interface
configuration information, one interface at a time. The following is a partial display of the
script for a previously-configured interface:
Configuring interface parameters:
Configuring interface Ethernet0:
Is this interface in use [yes]:
Configure IP on this interface? [yes]:
IP address for this interface: 131.108.6.67
(remainder of display text omitted)
Press the Return key to accept the default at each prompt and retain the existing
configuration information. When you reach the scripts for configuring new interfaces, enter
the new configuration information at each prompt.
When all interfaces are configured, the system displays the entire configuration script
followed by the following prompt for which there is no default (you must enter yes or no):
Use this configuration [yes/no]:
Enter yes at the prompt (unless you want to discard the configuration file and start over).
The following message is displayed:
Press RETURN to get started!
