Configure the LAN Interface
The next task you need to perform is to configure the LAN interfaces on your Cisco 3600 series router.
For the purpose of this procedure, we are showing how to configure an Ethernet interface. If the interface
you are configuring is different, refer to the “Configuring LAN Interfaces” chapter in the Cisco IOS
Release 11.3
Configuration Fundamentals Configuration Guide
or to the configuration notes that
shippedwith your module.
To configure an Ethernet interface, perform the following tasks, beginning in global configuration mode:
Note
The Ethernet and loopback interfaces should be on different subnets.
Create the Group Asynchronous Interface
A group asynchronous interface is a parent interface that applies protocol characteristics to specified,
associated asynchronous interfaces. After you create a group asynchronous interface, all associated
asynchronous interfaces (called members) can be configured through it. Group asynchronous interfaces
can speed configuration time and help you maintain interface configuration consistency.
To configure a group asynchronous interface, perform the following tasks, beginning in global
configuration mode:
Command
Description
Step 1
interface ethernet
slot/port
Select the Ethernet interface.
Step 2
ip address
ip-address
ip-address
mask
Assign an IP address and subnet mask to
the Ethernet interface.
Step 3
no
shutdown
Enable this interface
Command
Description
Step 1
interface group-async
number
Create a group asynchronous interface.
Step 2
ip unnumbered Loopback
number
Enable IP processing on the loopback
interface without assigning an explicit IP
address to the interface.
Step 3
encapsulation ppp
Set the Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) as the
encapsulation method used by this
interface.
Step 4
async mode interactive
Enable SLIP and PPP EXEC commands on
this interface.
Step 5
peer default ip address pool
name
Specify an IP address from the defined IP
address pool to be returned to a remote peer
connecting to this interface.
Step 6
no cdp enable
Disable CDP on this interface.
