Configuration Fundamentals

Basic Configuration Procedures

Following are the basic steps that you can follow to configure the V100-E.
Step1 Figure out detailed networking requirements, including networking objectives, the role of the V100-E in
the network, transmission medium, security policy, and network reliability.
Step2 Draw a networking topology based on the requirements.
Step3 Configure IP addresses for the interfaces on the V100-E.
Step4 Configure routes, and if a dynamic routing protocol is enabled, set parameters for the protocol.
Step5 Configure security features as required.
Step6 Configure reliability features as required.
For more information on the configuration of protocols and functions for the V100-E, see the H3C
SecPath Series Security Products Operation Manual.

Command Line Interface

Characteristics of CLI
The CLI of the V100-E enables you to configure, manage, and maintain the V100-E.
The CLI provides the following functions:
Configure the device locally through the console port.
Perform local or remote configuration and directly log in to and manage other devices by using the
telnet command.
Get online help whenever you enter "?".
Test network connectivity quickly with network diagnostic tools, such as tracert and ping.
Have detailed debugging information for troubleshooting your network.
Enter the conflict-free keyword portion instead of the whole command, because the CLI supports
command prompting. For example, you simply need to enter "dis" for the display command.
CLI
In system view, all the commands are put into groups for the convenience of management, each being
associated to a view. For details, see H3C SecPath Series Security Products Operation Manual. You
can switch between the views by executing corresponding commands. In general, only certain
commands can be executed in a particular view. However, some commonly used commands, such as
ping and display current-configuration, and interface can be executed in any view.
