This chapter takes you through first-time startup. Use the information you have entered onto the Router Configuration Worksheet and the Interface Configuration Worksheet as you interact with the System Configuration Dialog. If you have not completed the worksheets, you should read the chapter, "Preparing for First-Time Startup," before starting up.
This chapter includes sample worksheets that have been filled in to show you how the information you have written on the worksheets is used when the setup command facility runs through the System Configuration Dialog.
The first time you start up the system, the setup command facility operates automatically. An interactive dialog, called the System Configuration Dialog, will be displayed on the screen of the system console. The dialog navigates you through the configuration process by prompting you for the information you should have already determined and recorded on the configuration worksheets. The setup command facility also provides default values and help text for the configuration parameters, as described later in this section.
The setup command facility knows which interfaces are installed and prompts you for configuration information for each installed interface. When you finish configuring one interface, the setup command software prompts you for the next interface and continues until each interface has been configured.
At first-time startup, you must do the following:
For many of the prompts in the System Configuration Dialog of the setup command facility, default answers appear in square brackets following the question. By pressing the Return key, you allow the defaults to be used. If the system was previously configured, the defaults that appear are the currently configured values. If you are configuring the system for the first time, the factory defaults are provided. If there is no factory default, as in the case of passwords, nothing is displayed after the question mark.
At any time during use of the setup command facility, you may request help by typing a question mark (?) at a given prompt. If the prompt requires a Yes or No answer, no further help is available. However, if the prompt offers a range of acceptable answers, the help facility will give you some guidance. For example, if you are prompted to select the number of bits in a subnet mask, the help facility might inform you that you can choose a decimal number between 0 and 16.
Before powering up your system, check for correct AC power voltages.
Now you can safely power up your system by flipping the switch on the back of the router.
When you first power up your console and network router, a script similar to the following appears on the screen. The first section of the script displays the banner information, including the software version and the System Configuration Dialog. (A sample of the complete configuration script produced is included at the end of this chapter.)

The next portion of the script lists installed hardware and software options, such as bridging and X.25. The system presents the appropriate interfaces for these options during the configuration process.
CSC4 (68040) processor with 16384K bytes of memory.
X.25 software, Version 2.0, NET2, BFE and GOSIP compliant.
Bridging software.
1 MCI controller (2 Ethernet, 2 Serial).
1 cBus controller.
Environmental Controller.
2 Ethernet/IEEE 802.3 interfaces.
2 Token Ring/IEEE 802.5 interfaces.
2 Serial network interfaces.
1 FDDI network interface.
64K bytes of multibus memory.
64K bytes of non-volatile configuration memory.
4096K bytes of flash memory on MC+ card (via MCI).
Configuration register is 0x101
The System Configuration Dialog appears next, and prompts for configuration information. The router gives you the opportunity to view the configuration, if any, for each interface. To accept the default settings, which appear in square brackets, press the Return key.
- System Configuration Dialog -
At any point you may enter a question mark '?' for help.
Refer to the 'Getting Started' Guide for additional help.
Use ctrl-c to abort configuration dialog at any prompt.
Default settings are in square brackets '[]'.
Would you like to enter the initial configuration dialog? [yes]:
First, would you like to see the current interface summary? [yes]:
Any interface listed with OK? value "NO" does not have a valid configuration.
Interface IP-Address OK? Method Status Protocol
TokenRing0 unassigned YES not set down down
Ethernet0 unassigned YES not set down down
Serial0 unassigned YES not set down down
Fddi0 unassigned YES not set down down
At this point, you can choose not to continue with the System Configuration Dialog and exit by answering No at the prompt. To begin the initial configuration process, answer Yes. You can press Ctrl-C to abort the process at any time. Ctrl-C returns you to the privileged EXEC prompt (router#). Refer to the Router Products Configuration Guide for information about configuring the router.
If a --More-- prompt appears, press the space bar to continue.
You are prompted for global parameters at the console. Use the values you have determined on your Router Configuration Worksheet. Enter the global parameters at the prompts.
You are prompted for parameters for each installed interface at the console. Use the values you have determined on your Interface Configuration Worksheet. Enter the interface parameters at the prompts.
When you complete the configuration process for all installed interfaces on your router, the setup command facility presents the configuration command script that was created. It also asks you if you want to use this configuration. If you answer Yes, the configuration is saved to nonvolatile memory. If you answer No, the configuration is not saved and the process begins again. There is no default for this prompt; you must answer either Yes or No.
Once you have answered Yes to this last question, your system is now ready to be used. If you want to modify the configuration you have just established, see the chapter, "Where to Go from Here."
This section contains a sample first-time startup configuration using sample completed worksheets. Figure 3-1 shows a completed Router Configuration Worksheet and Figure 3-2 shows a completed Interface Configuration Worksheet. These samples include the actual screen output for the setup command facility at first-time startup. The screen output includes both the interactive configuration process and the resulting script that was created.
In the sample System Configuration Dialog, when it appears that no response was made, the user pressed the Return key to accept the default.

Use this configuration? [yes/no]: yes
[OK]
Use the enabled mode 'configure' command to modify this configuration.
Press RETURN to get started!
First-time startup is complete. Your router is now ready to use. If you want to modify the configuration you have just established during first-time startup, use the setup command facility described in Chapter 4, "Where to Go from Here." To perform advanced configurations, use the configure command, as described in the Router Products Configuration Guide and the Router Products Command Reference publication.
