Cisco Configuration Professional
Quick Start Guide
April 29, 2011
This document explains how to start using Cisco Configuration Professional Express
(Cisco CP Express) and Cisco Configuration Professional (Cisco CP).
Cisco Configuration Professional (Cisco CP) is a GUI based device management tool for Cisco access
routers. This tool simplifies routing, firewall, IPS, VPN, unified communications, WAN and LAN
configuration through GUI based easy-to-use wizards.
Cisco CP is a valuable productivity enhancing tool for network administrators and channel partners for
deploying routers with increased confidence and ease. It offers a one-click router lockdown and an
innovative voice and security auditing capability to check and recommend changes to router
configuration. Cisco CP also monitors router status and troubleshoots WAN and VPN connectivity
issues.
Cisco CP Express is a light weight version of Cisco CP. You can use Cisco CP Express to configure basic
security features on the router’s LAN and WAN interfaces. Cisco CP Express is available on the router
Flash memory.
This document shows you how to set up a PC to connect to the router, give the router an initial network
configuration using Cisco CP Express, and then begin using Cisco CP.
This document is intended for users with one of the ordering options (SKU) listed in
Table 1
, and for
users who download these configuration tools from Cisco.com. Refer to the
Release Notes for
Cisco Configuration Professional
for information about supported routers, web browsers, and plug-ins.
Cisco CP ordering options are provided to suit a variety of deployments.
Table 1
describes the Cisco CP
ordering options, the deployment each supports, and how this document can be used.
