2. Enter the following command at the Privileged EXEC level prompt, then press Enter . This command erases the factory test
conguration if it is still present.
device# erase startup-config
After you enter this command, you will need to restart the system.
CAUTION
Use the erase startup-cong command only for new systems. If you enter this command on a system you have
already congured, the command erases the conguration. If you accidentally erase the conguration on a
congured system, enter the write memory command to save the running conguration to the startup-cong le.
3. Access the conguration level of the CLI by entering the following command.
device# configure terminal
device(config)#
4. Congure the IP address and subnet mask for Ethernet interface 1/1 by entering the following commands.
device(config)# interface ethernet 1/1
device(config-if-e10000-1/1)# ip address 192.22.3.44 255.255.255.0
Syntax: enable [ password ]
Syntax: congure terminal
Syntax: [no] ip address ip-addrip-mask [ secondary ]
or
Syntax: [no] ip address ip-addr/mask-bits [ secondary ]
Use the secondary parameter if you have already congured an IP address within the same sub-net on the interface.
Enabling and disabling the interfaces
By default, all router interfaces are disabled. To enable an interface, enter the enable command at the appropriate interface
conguration
level of the CLI. For example, to enable the management interface, enter the enable command at the management interface
conguration level of the CLI.
device(config-if-mgmt-1)# enable
You can disable each of these interfaces using the disable command at the appropriate interface conguration level of the CLI. For
example, to disable the management port, enter the disable command at the management interface conguration level of the CLI.
device(config-if-mgmt-1)# disable
Understanding management port functions
The management port performs specic functions and is subject to some limitations, as described.
• Because the management port allows you to congure, monitor, and manage routers only, this port has the same limited
functionality as an IP host port.
• You cannot enable and run routing protocols on the management port.
• You cannot congure routes from the management interface.
• The management port uses static IP routes from the interface routing tables.
