Configuring the Interfaces
When you start up the Cisco uBR7200 series router for the first time, the system automatically enters
the setup facility (also called the system configuration dialog), which determines which port adapters
and cable interface cards are installed. The setup facility prompts you for configuration information.
On the console terminal, after the system displays the system banner and hardware configuration, the
following System Configuration Dialog prompt appears:
--- System Configuration Dialog ---
At any point you may enter a questions mark '?' for help.
Use ctrl-c to abort configuration dialof at any prompt.
Default settings are in square brackets '[]'.
continue with configuration dialog? [yes]:
You can proceed with the setup facility or exit from the setup facility, using the command interface to
configure global (system-wide) and interface-specific parameters.
Caution
The setup facility currently excludes cable-specific configuration commands. Upstream ports, therefore,
have a default state of "shutdown" after the setup facility is run. You must configure upstream
parameters. For additional information, refer to the Cisco uBR7200 Series Software Configuration Guide
at the following URL:
http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/cable/cmts/ubr7200/configuration/guide/cr72scg.html
You do not have to configure the interfaces immediately; however, you cannot enable the interfaces or
connect them to any networks until you have configured them.
Many of the port adapter LEDs do not come on until you have configured the interfaces. To verify correct
operation of each interface, complete the first-time startup procedures and configuration, then refer to
the document for each port adapter for LED descriptions and to check the status of the interfaces.
Your Cisco uBR7200 series chassis installation is complete. To set up your cable network headend,
proceed to
