Chapter3 Configuring with the Command-Line Interface
Configuring Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Network Modules or WAN Interface Cards
• Connect a console to the router.
• Power on the router.
Configuring Asynchronous/Synchronous Serial Network
Modules or WAN Interface Cards
You can configure the serial interfaces on your asynchronous/synchronous serial network module or
WAN interface card manually by entering Cisco IOS commands on the command line. This method,
called configuration mode, provides the greatest power and flexibility.
Timesaver Before you begin, disconnect all WAN cables from the router to keep it from trying to run the AutoInstall
process. The router tries to run AutoInstall whenever you power it ON, if there is a WAN connection on
both ends and the router does not have a valid configuration file stored in nonvolatile random-access
Command Purpose

Router> enable
Password: password
Router#
Enter enable mode. Enter the password.
You have entered enable mode when the prompt
changes to Router#.
Step2
Router# configure terminal

End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#
Enter global configuration mode. You have
entered global configuration mode when the
prompt changes to Router(config)#.
Step3
Router# ip routing
Router# appletalk routing
Router# ipx routing
Enable routing protocols as required for your
global configuration. This example uses IP
routing, AppleTalk routing, and Internetwork
Packet Exchange (IPX) routing.
Step4
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#
Enter interface configuration mode. You have
entered interface configuration mode when the

Step5
Router(config-if)# ip address 172.16.74.3
255.255.255.0
Assign an IP address and subnet mask to the
interface.
Step6
Router(config-if)# appletalk static
cable-range 3-3
Router(config-if)# appletalk zone ZZEth
Router(config-if)# ipx network B005
Configure routing protocols on the interface. You
must have previously enabled these protocols as
part of global configuration. In this example,
AppleTalk and IPX are being configured on the
interface.
Step7
Router(config-if)# exit
Exit back to global configuration mode.
Repeat Step 4 through Step 6 if your router has
more than one interface that you need to
configure.
