Configuring Fast Ethernet Interfaces
Configuring Fast Ethernet Interfaces
To configure a Fast Ethernet interface, use the configuration software provided with your Cisco VG224
or network module, if any. Otherwise, for greatest power and flexibility, use configuration mode (manual
configuration).
Before you begin, disconnect all WAN cables from the Cisco VG224 to keep it from trying to run the
Note
AutoInstall process. The Cisco VG224 tries to run AutoInstall whenever you power it on if there is a
WAN connection on both ends and the Cisco VG224 does not have a valid configuration file stored in
NVRAM (for instance, when you add a new interface). It can take several minutes for the Cisco VG224
to determine that AutoInstall is not connected to a remote TCP/IP host.
This section describes basic configuration, including enabling the interface and specifying IP routing.
Depending on your own requirements and the protocols you plan to route, you might also need to enter
other configuration commands.
Before you begin configuring the interfaces, make sure to do the following:
•
•
Command
Step 1
Router> enable
Password: password
Router#
Step 2
Router# configure terminal
Enter configuration commands, one per line.
End with CNTL/Z.
Router(config)#
Step 3
Router# ip routing
Router# ipx routing
Step 4
Router(config)# interface fastethernet 0/0
Router(config-if)#
Step 5
Router(config-if)# ip address 172.16.74.3
255.255.255.0
Step 6
Router(config-if)# ipx network B005

Configuring with the Command-Line Interface
Purpose
Enters enable mode. Enter the password.
You have entered enable mode when the prompt
changes to
.
Router#
Enters global configuration mode. You have
entered global configuration mode when the
prompt changes to
Router(config)#.
Enables routing protocols as required for your
global configuration. This example uses IP routing
and Internetwork Packet Exchange (IPX) routing.
Enters interface configuration mode. You have
entered interface configuration mode when the
prompt changes to
Router(config-if)#.
Assigns an IP address and subnet mask to the
interface.
Configures routing protocols on the interface. You
must have previously enabled these protocols as
part of global configuration. In this example, IPX
is being configured on the interface.
