Chapter 1 Basic Router Configuration

Configure the Wireless Interface

The wireless interface enables connection to the router through a wireless LAN connection. For more
information about configuring a wireless connection, see
Connection"

Configuring a Loopback Interface

The loopback interface acts as a placeholder for the static IP address and provides default routing
information.
For complete information on the loopback commands, see the Cisco IOS Release 12.3
documentation set.
Perform these steps to configure a loopback interface:
Command
Step 1 interface type number
Example:
Router(config)# interface Loopback 0
Router(config-int)#
Step 2 ip address ip-address mask
Example:
Router(config-int)# ip address 10.108.1.1
255.255.255.0
Router(config-int)#
Step 3
exit
Example:
Router(config-int)# exit
Router(config)#

Configuration Example

The loopback interface in this sample configuration is used to support Network Address Translation
(NAT) on the virtual-template interface. This configuration example shows the loopback interface
configured on the Fast Ethernet interface with an IP address of 200.200.100.1/24, which acts as a static
IP address. The loopback interface points back to virtual-template1, which has a negotiated IP address.
