You may also initially configure your router by using the Cisco IOS command-line interface (CLI) or by
using the setup command facility. To create the initial configuration, the setup command facility prompts

Setup Command Facility

The setup command facility guides you through the configuration process by prompting you for the
specific information that is needed to configure your system. Use the setup command facility to
configure a hostname for the router, to set passwords, and to configure an interface for communication
with the management network.
To use the setup command facility, you must set up a console connection with the router and enter the
privileged EXEC mode.
