Configuring 1-Port and 2-Port Ethernet Interfaces
You can configure Ethernet interfaces manually by entering Cisco IOS commands on the command line.
This method, called configuration mode, provides the greatest power and flexibility.
Before you begin, disconnect all WAN cables from the router to keep it from trying to run the
Timesaver
AutoInstall process. The router tries to run AutoInstall whenever you power it on, if there is a WAN
connection on both ends and the router does not have a valid configuration file stored in nonvolatile
random-access memory (NVRAM) (for instance, when you add a new interface). It can take several
minutes for the router to determine that AutoInstall is not connected to a remote Transmission
Control Protocol/Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) host.
OL-1957-03
Check the host name and encrypted password displayed near the top of the command output.
Caps Lock is off.
You entered the correct passwords. Passwords are case sensitive.
