Installing a Cisco 6260 Without a POTS Splitter Configuration

4.2.16 Complete Initial Configuration

When you turn on the Cisco 6260 for the first time, an interactive dialog called the System Configuration
Dialog appears in a window on the console screen. The System Configuration Dialog guides you through
the initial configuration process. (You can run the dialog at any time by entering the setup command in
privileged EXEC mode.)
When you complete the dialog, the system displays the configuration command script that you have
created. It then offers you three options:
[0] Go to the IOS command prompt without saving this config.
[1] Return back to the setup without saving this config.
[2] Save this configuration to nvram and exit.
If you enter 2, the configuration is saved and used. If you answer 0 or 1, the configuration you created is
not saved. Enter 1 if you wish to discard the configuration and restart the System Configuration Dialog.

4.2.16.1 Before You Begin

Complete these steps before you run the System Configuration Dialog:
Determine the IP address for the Ethernet interface.
Step 1
Step 2
If you plan to configure in-band management, determine the IP address for the ATM interface that will
be used for in-band management (ATM0/1 or ATM0/2).
Find out what the password strategy is for your environment. The System Configuration Dialog window
Step 3
prompts you for three passwords, plus an SNMP community string. The three required password types
are enable secret, enable, and virtual terminal.
Choose a name for the Cisco 6260. (This step is optional.)

4.2.16.2 Using the System Configuration Dialog

The System Configuration Dialog offers two configuration options: basic management setup and
extended setup.
An example of each type of setup follows the
4.2.16.2.1 Interface Numbering
The System Configuration Dialog window and the CLI use the following interface numbering scheme:
OL-2365-02
Choose basic management setup if you want to use the System Configuration Dialog to configure
the passwords and the Ethernet interface only, and then use the management station or the command
line interface (CLI) to configure the remaining Cisco 6260 interfaces.
Choose extended setup if you want to use the System Configuration Dialog to configure all of the
Cisco 6260 interfaces.
Interfaces whose names begin with "ATM0" (ATM0/0, ATM0/1, and so forth) are NI-2 card network
trunk interfaces. ATM0/0 is the ATM switch interface with the processor (sometimes referred to as
the ASP interface, for ATM switch/processor). There is no need to configure ATM0/0 unless you
plan to use in-band management. ATM0/1 is the trunk port. ATM0/2 and ATM0/3 (if present) are
subtending interfaces.
