 Summary

After completing this chapter, you should

be able to perform the following tasks:
• Describe how data moves through a network
• Identify the roles and functions of routers,
switches and hubs, and specify where each
device best fits in the network
• Select the appropriate Cisco equipment for a
network that combines switching, routing and
remote access requirements

 Objectives
On completion of this chapter, you will be
able to perform the following tasks:
• Start up the Catalyst switch and Cisco
router and observe the boot up processes
• Provide an initial configuration for the switch
and perform the router’s initial setup
configuration
• Enable and identify the command modes in
each network device

© 2000, Cisco Systems, Inc. www.cisco.com CCNA-(V2)—1-49

 Objectives (cont.)
• Use the various help and command line-
editing features of each device’s user
interface
• Show and recognize fundamental technical
details about each network device

System (IOS) Software

Cisco IOS software delivers network

services and enables networked
applications.

© 2000, Cisco Systems, Inc. www.cisco.com CCNA-(V2)—1-51

 Network Device Configuration
• Configuration sets up the device with:
– Network policy of the functions required
– Protocol addressing and parameter settings
– Options for administration and management
• Catalyst switch memory has initial configuration
with default settings
• Cisco router will prompt for initial configuration if
there is no configuration in memory

Fundamentals

• Uses a command line interface

• Operations vary on different
internetworking devices
Cisco
• Type or paste entries in the IOS
console command modes
• Enter key instructs device to
parse and execute the command
• Two primary EXEC modes are
user mode and privileged mode
• Command modes have distinctive
prompts

© 2000, Cisco Systems, Inc. www.cisco.com CCNA-(V2)—1-55

 Cisco IOS Software EXEC
There are two main EXEC modes for entering
commands.
First mode:
User Mode
• Limited examination of switch or router
• Command Prompt is hostname>

 The Cisco IOS
Software EXEC (cont.)

Second mode (and most commonly used):

• Detailed examination of switch or router
• Enables configuration and debugging
• Prerequisite for other configuration modes
• Command prompts on the device

 Initial Start up of the
Catalyst Switch
• System startup routines initiate switch software
• Initial startup uses default configuration parameters

1. Before you start the switch,

verify the cabling and console
connection
2. Attach the power cable plug to
the switch power supply socket
3. Observe the boot sequence
– LEDs on the switch chassis
– Cisco IOS software output text

 Checking Switch LED
Indicators

© 2000, Cisco Systems, Inc. www.cisco.com CCNA-(V2)—1-59

 Port LEDs during
Switch POST
1. At the start, all port LEDs are green.
2. Each LED turns off after its test completes.
3. If a test fails, its LED turns amber.
4. System LED turns amber if any test fails.
5. If no test fails, POST completes.
6. On POST completion, LEDs blink
then turn off.
