CH A P T E R 4 Performing a Basic Configuration of the Cisco 7206 This chapter describes how to perform a basic configuration for your Cisco 7206. The chapter contains the following sections: • Using the Enable Secret and the Enable Password, page 4-1 • Configuring the Cisco 7206, page 4-2 • Performing Other Configuration Tasks, page 4-10 • Performing a Complex Configuration, page 4-11 Note For instructions about how to perform a basic configuration for a Cisco 7206 used as a router shelf in a Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server, refer to the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server documentation listed in the Preface, "Related Documentation" section on page xiv. This chapter guides you through a basic Cisco 7206 configuration, which is sufficient for you to access your network. Complex configuration procedures are beyond the scope of this publication and can be found in the configuration publications listed in the Preface, "Related Documentation" section on page xiv. To configure the Cisco 7206 from a console, you need to connect a terminal to the router's console port. Configuration requires access to the console port on the router's I/O controller. Using the Enable Secret and the Enable Password The Cisco 7206 is administered using the Cisco command interpreter, called the EXEC. You must boot and log in to the router before you can enter an EXEC command. For security purposes the EXEC has two levels of access to commands, user EXEC mode and privileged EXEC mode. The commands available at the user level are a subset of those available at the privileged level. Because many privileged-level EXEC commands are used to set operating parameters, you should password-protect these commands to prevent unauthorized use. There are two commands you can use to set the password protection: • enable secret password (which is a very secure, encrypted password) • enable password (which is a less secure, or nonencrypted, password) OL-5102-02 Cisco 7206 Installation and Configuration Guide 4-1
