Cisco calls its OS as the Cisco Internetwork Operating System or Cisco IOS. IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Command Line Interface (CLI) The Cisco IOS software uses a command-line interface (CLI) as the traditional console environment. This environment is accessible through several connection methods: Console AUX port Telnet IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Dial-up Device Modem IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara User Level Passwords IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Modes IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Modes IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Modes IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Modes IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Memory IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Memory cont. RAM - Store running or active configuration file - Loses content when router is powered down - A working storage ROM - Read-Only Memory - Stores bootable IOS image and bootstrap program IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Memory cont. NVRAM - Provides storage for the startup configuration file - Retains content when router is powered down Flash memory - Holds the fully functional IOS image - Retains content when router is powered down - Is a type of electronically erasable, programmable ROM (EEPROM) IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Router Memory cont. Bootup program startup-config Bootable IOS running-config IOS IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Displaying configuration files show running-config show startup-config IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara Managing configuration files Copy Command - copy files in a router (configuration file, new version of the IOS Software) - Move configuration files among RAM, NVRAM, and TFTP server IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara copy running-config startup-config Router# copy startup-config running-config During bootup running-config startup-config Router# copy running-config startup-config Changes to the router are put in the running-config file. If the router loses power or reboots, everything in RAM is lost including the running-config file. To make sure the changes to the router’s configuration remain saved, you must copy the running-config from RAM into the startup-config into NVRAM: Router# copy running-config startup-config IT2050| Computer Networks | Introduction to Routers| Hansika Mahaadikara copy running-config startup-config cont. Router#copy running-config startup-config Destination filename [startup-config]? Building configuration...
